hey ppl, i pretty sure that u noticed that when ur counting calories, that there's a little bit of fine print on the bottom. well, the ppl that measure the calories base it on a 2,000 calorie diet , and if ur eating less than that might mean that ur consuming less calories? i'm not overweight, i'm just here to help. and i was wondering if u ppl have noticed that?!? u may add up the calories u consume incorrectly but ur body knows how much u have consumed. tell me cauze i was just wonderin myself.

no- that's not what they mean. it means that the percentages for the vitamins and protien and such are larger for people who are on low calorie diets because they're not eating as much other things. the calories and grams are the same...
