Hi! I’m 5’1 230 lbs and looking to make a major change...I read the FAQ here but still have a question. Background, I’ve been lifting weights 2x/week with some short cardio so far, but struggle to find energy with a very draining job (solo business still getting off the ground toward my financial goals).
Anyways: I’ve gotten some mixed info about how I should be eating in terms of carbs/fats per day. Especially as a short woman. Sometimes the numbers suggested seem CRAZY low, like borderline starving myself. At the same time, I might want almost 100 lbs of weight loss in a perfect world, so maybe “starving myself” from my current perspective isn’t something I can rely on. On the flip side, sometimes putting 230 lbs into a calculator puts out very high goal numbers, because I'm so big. I have been a bigger girl my entire life and feel like I need to rebuild a view of what I should be eating completely from scratch, and it's overwhelming.
Can anyone suggest ranges for carbs and fats that I can feel confident are safe and effective? I'm more interested in what you all have had success with rather than some formula on a website. I want to make sure to NOT totally under-eat and crash myself, because I know that is a danger. Should I already be eating more like the 140 lbs woman I want to end up as, rather than thinking about “what kind of nutrients do I need to sustain the 230 lbs woman I still am right now?”
Thanks so much!!!
