So I was reading on here and someone said your supposed to eat around 1600 calories a day. What do you do if your eating out and don't know how many calories you have? Or what about school? I usually just dont eat lunch but I take a 100 Calorie pack and drink water. Thats what I usually do, but what about other things that you dont know how many calories it is?
Reply from kade, Age 19 - 01/08/08 - IP#: 71.8.231.xxx you arent eating enough for lunch, you should be having about 300 calories or more for lunch to keep your energy up. also when eating out you should look for grilled protein, steamed veggies, salads, and broth based soups. applebees has a weight watchers menu that is really tasty. and at ruby tuesdays i have the 6 oz sirloin steak with a plain potato and steamed brocoli. steak is actually a good choice if you pick a sirloin (anything with loin in it is lean) and stick to 6 oz or less.

A 100 cal pack isnt enough to eat for lunch so if you really dont want to eat their food try taking your own sandwhiches or something else more substantial which you can make yourself so you know whats in it!
