[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 916674, member: 41816"] No worries! But unfortunately, i cant tell you, because i never measure anything. I tend to keep tight track of carbs, eat 'normal' protein portions and aim for a good non-starchy veg presence (my veg portions are enormous). Then i bung in fats until i feel satisfied. I definitely go by appetite, not idealised portion sizes. I did track my intake for a few days on MyFitnessPal about 18 months ago (very tiresome) and i ended up at around 80% calories from fats, but it varied every day. I will try and do portion sizes below, to give you an idea. Today: B: the big Costa Americano, which i then tipped one and a half of their tiddly little jugs of cream into. (I usually have a medium sized one, and in that case, a single mini jug of cream is enough. L: half a Lidl high protein roll with two x 2mm thick slices of anchor butter (sliced off the end of a pat) on it. Smeared with marmite. And 2 x 97% meat sausages, which had been grilled, not fried. D: a rare steak (8oz, approx), with salad, mayo (rounded tablespoon), and mushroom, peppers, onions (fried in the pan with coconut oil before i added the steak). I'm now stuffed, and wont eat anything else until tomorrow. The steak was a rare treat that MrB picked up, cos he's a steak man. [/QUOTE]
