Maybe everyone already knows this but I just discovered it today!
Many of my supplements have significant calories in them!
If you are tracking your calorie intake like I do, [i use daily plate] then this can add up and make a difference in what is happening.
My supplements alone add over 100 calories to my daily intake!!! So the days that I'm close, at, or even over a little, make a big difference! That's a lot of calories!!
Check the NI on the bottles of stuff you are taking and make sure you start counting those calories!
Some examples:
gummy vits, 1 dose, 2x a day = 30
glucosamine, 1 dose, 1x a day = 15
omega liquid, 1/2 dose, 2x a day = 45
Those are the big ones. The others add up to another 16 calories for a total of 106 supplement calories per day!!! YIKES!!!
Just wanted to warn others out there b/c it's just not something I thought of til today.
