i woke up sore today.I went up on my weights yesterday.I was wondering about my calorie intake.I have noticed in some post that you should have your body weight x 10-12.now is that to maintain your weight?do i need to have less to lose weight.my weight is 166.How often should i weigh in?And also today i noticed my carb grams are higher than my protien grams.Is that ok?I have insulin resistance so i try to watch the carb intake.In the begining i had hardly no carbs becuase i thought they were evil.But i have been adding more good carbs and i fell better.I just try to watch my portions.

In general terms , 10-12 x BW is for cutting ... you probably need to eat more than that for maintenance. You need to figure out what your own personal maintenance caloric intake is. Last time I was maintaining (and ending up inadvertently adding muscle) I was 16-18 X my bodyweight. That would be ‘bulking’ for some people. I would weigh yourself 1-3 times a week, same time, same days, am, on empty after you empty your bladder2bfitchristy said:
Some carbs are evil, you got it by watching your portion sizes and making 'healthy' carb choices.
As far as carb grams being higher than protein, yes it does happen.
For instance you posted this:
"cals 1620 56/21/23"
Does that mean 56% Protein / 21% Carbs / 23% Fat?

Two things you want to avoid when you are dieting (and this is where people, esp women screw themselves w/ the idea of "i have to starve myself to lose weight") -- if your protein is not high enough, you have nothing to build muscle with - women often think in terms of "I have to drop fat" but don't think also in terms of maintaining or building the muscle mass they have, even saying "I dont' care about losing muscle" - when its a combination of bodyfat & muscle that makes you look how you look. The second is if you don't eat enough in general, then your metabolism will slow down to accommodate the lack of sufficient nutrients, stallign out your progress and possibly catabolizing muscle.
Don't worry about the grams of each macronutrient - the important thing is the total cals & the ratios of each.
