[QUOTE="hankjam, post: 1128940, member: 104954"] never really counted the cals, just dropped the carbs to what's in veg and nuts, so didn't really count them either, went for lots of walks, watched my weight fall off and my numbers go into control. I think I was fortunate though. I find counting an interesting exercise. Look at a range of almonds available in the high street and be surprised to see what carbo content they have. I've seen from 6 to 20% for, what appear to be exactly the same product, whole almonds in their skins.. I think you would be hard pushed to exceed your cal need if you drop carbs coz you probably won't want to go Full Fat because of our preconditioning to the evils of fat... which I think I am now overcoming... not too hard as I love cheese and thought I was going to have to give it... unlike bread, which I also love.... but have given up.
