I'm trying to watch my macros because, this time, I'm incorporating light weight training and some cardio into my weightloss. Doing the 'Strong Curves' 12wk programme.
Last time that I lost weight I felt very weak towards the end, and I don't want to lose any muscle this time. I'm thinking perhaps it was because I didn't eat meat back then, nor dairy, but this time around I have added dairy and fish too.
So far, today I ate: / 3 eggs with spinach / lots of green beans / 4 vegetarian "meatballs" / 200 gr salmon / half a tablespoon of mayo
My macros say that's 41% fat, 33% protein and 26% carbs. Usually I'll have oats for breakfast with yoghurt, or a snack at night but that's always carbs. Yesterday I ended with about the same %macros, and I'm just noticing that I'm eating more fat than intended.
I have no idea where all the fat is coming from? Is it the salmon? Should I perhaps add a protein shake or something? How do I increase my protein and cut down on fat? I like eating as little fish as possible and I don't do well with a lot of dairy.
Trying to figure out how to maintain as much muscle as I can, preferably even have muscle growth. What should my macros even look like, with that goal in mind?
