I am 4 months out and am not sure if i am getting the correct amount of calories or carbs. my nut gave me a target for protein but didn't give me a target for either of these. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I saw my NUT yesterday. She siad about 1000 cals but didn't say anything about carbs--she did say it is important to get your carbs from good sources like veggies, nuts, fruits etc and not junk foods--I am very carb sensitive so I try to keep mine at 50 or below.. Hope this helps.

I think it is one of those things again that can vary from nutritionist/dr to another. I am 4 months out and my nut said 1000 cals a day, not to stress too much about carbs because as long as your get all your protein in your carbs should stay fairly decent. However, I can never get to 1000 cals, I eat about 600-800 a day and stay under 40 carbs.. On my gym days I try and get to 1000 to make up for the 800-1000 cals I burn while working out.. As long as you get your protein, liquids and calories in carbs should fall into a good zone :)
