Hi, all!
I'm wondering how many calories per meal (approximate) would be appropriate for maintenance? During the weight loss phase I wouldn't go over 150 calories per meal, and now that I'm trying to maintain I'm averaging about 300. Does that seem high? I eat 2-3 meals per day and 2 Snacks with snacks staying under 150 calories each.
I'm also curious how many g of carbs everyone eats and can still maintain their weight. I was averaging about 40-50 during weight loss but I'm thinking about allowing up to 75 total per day. Keep in mind, I don't do any formal exercise, and being a graduate student I'm either hiking to class or on my butt reading/writing with not a lot of time for much else.
Thanks!!
