Hello all, newbie question
This is a repost, I posted it originally in newbie and it was suggested I ask the question here.
"I have "done" low carb many times over the years and I always fell off the wagon (okay, maybe I jumped), in part due to no bread. Not that I have to eat bread all the time, but a caesar salad without croutons is just wrong, as is a softly poached egg without toast. Now I have found the Protein power comfort cookbook and they have bread recipes, so I am good to go.
I have finally decided it is time to lose the 60+ pounds I gained when I quit smoking 7 years ago. So today is my first day on protein power, I have been recording my food intake on fitday, and I am a little alarmed about the number of fat grams I have consumed so far today. My calories are 1820, fat grams 143., carbs 39.9 grams (probably inaccurate, I think it's lower, I didn't create a custom food for my homemade meatloaf), and the protein is 97.7 grams. Do the fat grams sound high?
Thanks in advance....."
