I don't account for butter or oils cuz I didn't think much of it but think I should start.
And the fruit smoothie is some I get from Costco, one is a blend of (pineremoved, kale, peaches, spinach, and something else) the other is a blend of (berrires and bananas). I add 2 table spoons of peanut butter cuz it's too bitter without it and I keep forgetting to buy honey since Ik that's better.
Basically I have a gut which I want to get rid of (Ik you can’t spot reduce sadly). I don’t want to get super jacked I just want to lose this guy and get muscle. And avoid diabetes since it runs in my family.
I’ve currently been working on muscle more since my job thankfully has a gym I do strength there two days a week and walk/run 3
So basically from what I was told, since I’m 240 lbs and 6 foot I should be eating 2000-2500 calories but if I put myself on a calorie deficit 1500 would be where to go
Yeah I usually do my best to eat vegetables and fruits whenever I can at least. And I'm trying my best to cut back on sugar it's hard lol but I'm getting there.
So then that lower metabolism stuff isn't true? I was told that because I've also lifted weights to get muscle and was told that since the calories i eat will lower my metabolism I won't gain the muscle and lose the weight I want.
