QuestionI am trying to find a package that has some 2000-2400 calories per day menus for a 30 day period. This would help save time trying to figure out what to eat and also serve as a shoping guide.Do you know of any program like this?
AnswerHi BOb,
What I say is that counting calories is a waste of effort. Sure, it helps to know what foods have a lot, but adding up your intake and output doesn't work very well. Your metabolism changes with your stresses, moods, activities, muscle mass, and so on. A healthy appetite can tell you what to eat, when you have had enough, to suit all the above. Listen to your body, quite reading packaging. See http://www.premiumfuel.com/real_food.html for an short guide to Real Food vs. Flavored Packing Material.
