About how many calories per day do you eat?

Date: November 24, 2007 08:13PM I have adrenal fatigue (due to overexercising) so it's been recommended that I stop exercising for awhile. I have stopped, but I have gained so much weight! I have followed 811 for the past 2 years, and I'm at my highest weight ever. I always feel hungry! When I eat mono-banana days I eat so many calories. This summer I did a 25 day water fast, and ever since I'm always starving. I'm a teacher so I'm on my feet walking around all day at work, but I wonder how many calories I should be eating. I know that when I eat too few calories, I really start craving the fatty foods. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Re: About how many calories per day do you eat?

however recommended normally is around 1200-1500 I usually eat between 300-800 weekdays weekends, having some gourmet dishes maybe 700-1000 mark I dont count, just eat fruit whenever hungry Re: About how many calories per day do you eat?

Date: November 26, 2007 07:20AM I eat between 1800-2200 cal/day. I'm 6'4" and 200 lbs.
and exercise daily. Raw for 6 months. I was blown away when I plugged in a typical days food from my SAD days into the NutritionData calculator. I'm pretty sure that it wasn't uncommon for me to eat 6000 to 8000 calories in a day! Some single meals had more calories than I eat in an entire day now that I'm raw. I can't believe I wasn't even more overweight! So lucky to have found raw living when I did! Aloha, Greg Re: About how many calories per day do you eat?

Date: November 27, 2007 12:10AM Hi Daisyduke,
Try eating more greens. I find that the most greens I eat, the more satisfied and less hungry I feel. I also noticed that more greens actually helps me eat less food. Try eating a pound a day. Best Wishes  Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
