I'm so confused. I've been watching a lot of fitness and health videos on YouTube and I'm noticing a lot of people saying reducing calories is bad. Which I understand because obviously once you go back to eating 2000 cals a day or whatever you will be putting on weight. I'm currently breastfeeding DD. Mfp suggests I should be eating 1200 a day but I upped it to 1600. I usually eat 1600 a day or there aBouts but burn off about 300 through walking each day.
I'm never hungry. I've reduced my portion sizes but upped the amount of veg and salad. I'm actually having a smoothie breakfast each morning. I never used to eat breakfast. Like I said, I'm never hungry. I was over eating before I started. I have a lot of snacks especially in the evening but I feel like I'm making better choices. But I'm so confused about calories.
I know I need to exercise more.
Can anyone help?! I feel like I could benefit from seeing a personal trainer or a nutritionalist or someone who is clued up but quite honestly we can't afford it ATM.
