this is just a snap shot I try and eat different all the time, or I eat all different sorts of things and as far as snaks go I try and eat 1600 calories a day so I may add snaks depending on my caloric intake at the time.
your caloric intake is about 900 calories +/- under what you should be eating - you need to EAT to lose weight. Right now, you're in starvation mode and you're overtraining. The body is a machine that loves homeostasis, if you're eating too little and training too much - the body tends to hold on to as much fat as it can. Overtraining is especially a big factor for women

Wow that would be a big change for me I would not get any fruits and calicum. I am not weight trainning so I do think that is too many calories. I think what you said is wonderful and you know what you are talking about but I would feel like I was cheating if I ate that much fat.
Thank you for your imput, I will have to think about this and see if I am brave enough to do it!!!
