Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dave with T2" data-source="post: 2536403" data-attributes="member: 558661">Thank you for all your replies. Several of you mentioned a lack of trust in Fitbit. I have no great faith in its accuracy either. However, if I conclude it is exaggerating my burning of calories by several hundred a day then I can work on that.At the moment I have no great concerns about more sinister health issues and am just looking to up my calorie intake without upping my blood sugar.I was interested to know how people split their calories between meals. I have been having a 600 cal breakfast (nuts and porridge) and various 600-800 calorie lunches. This has left me looking for too many calories for my evening meal.I found the link on the main page helpful thank you. It recommended about 2860 calories per day for me. So my 3000 was not that far out.I am aware of how many calories are in a gram of carb, protein and fat. My point was having only 135 g of carb leaves you needing a helot of fat and protein to make up the rest of the calories.I think I am going to have to eat bigger, more calorific breakfasts and lunches to avoid blood sugar raising large evening meals.Anyway, thanks again for all the replies.Dave</blockquote>
