calorie intake

[pammy]

OK So I have been given some great info off here about training and diet ,but the thing is nobody is this town knows squat about anything , I swear , I have continually paid out money for bullshit information its always like " no, dont worry about counting calories they dont matter just eat until your not quite full" or " 60% protein is far to high you should be cosuming 60% carbs" ect ect I tell ya this town dont know nothing and its really starting to piss me off. So thats where you guys come in , I know what kinds of food to eat BUT for the love of god I DONT know how to
1. figure out the amount of cals i should be consuming
2. figure out how to convert cals into grams
3. if I left any basic thing out need to know that to

Im doing a carb rotating diet with carbs at 50 grams low days and 130 to 150 grams high days

I went for a body comp today and I am 36.6 % bf
approx 191 pounds
fat weight 70 pounds
lean weight 121pounds

also does anybody know what an oz. is = to a gram?

I think I have included everything I needed to know
Thanks so much
Pammy

Can you post a sample of your diet now?? If you are going to someone about nutrition they will probably give you the FDA normal guidelines bull shit...give us more information so we can better help you....

1 oz equals 28.35 grams

I use www.fitday.com to keep a food journal ...it takes a little effort but worth it
