I downloaded my fitness pal, and it suggested 2250 calories a day to lose 1 lb a week. I don't think I'm coming anywhere near that. I put in what I ate yesterday, and barely got to 1600. It didn't let me see protein, fat, or carbs.
It did put a note on the juice that I should stay under 84g of sugar a day.
As for the red meat, we usually get 93% lean. It's the 3% difference that was suggested really significant, or is it more about just avoiding stuff like the 80/20?
Again, thanks for the suggestions!

On the app if you are in the Diary go all the way to the bottom and click on Nutrition. You can see details there. I prefer to view this on a computer as you can easily see the breakdown for each individual item and totals. These numbers can be way off if you aren't tracking serving sizes correctly.

I don't think its going to make much of a difference if you are doing a different diet then whats listed on RFL.

If you are sure you are at 1600 i woupd up it to 1800... with lean meats/protein. You are likely gettinf too few calories and will go into starvation mode and store fat.

And if you want to see your macros go to bottom or my fitness pal app where you enter your food and click nutrition.. i would recommend 1.5-2lbs of protein per lb of your body weight

myfitnesspal app is only good for tracking calories and macros. The recommended macros are crap. If you want the correct macros for you, go over to avatar nutrition and pay the $10/month.

but again as stated this isnt the thread for this. You will get better answers if you make your own thread kind of giving your stats, weight loss/fitness history, what training program you are on etc.

I will be more than happy to help if you do that.
