If she is on a 1200 calorie diet, wonder how many fruits and veggies that should be?

Bizi,

Five fruits and veggies a day or ----- Roughly: 1 cup fruit and 1 ½ cups veggies.
But she can eat more veggies if she skips some of the grains.
1200 is very low. She should be eating more like 1500 or so depending on her height and age and how sedentary /active she is. Then she can eat more.
Here is a calculator.

I could not help her.

Bizi,

I hope that you have a good evening.

Here is a link to calorie/carb/protein info that is fairly close for the Nutri System stuff.

http://www.calorieking.com/foods/cal...lkPTIwMjM.html

http://members.nutrisystem.com/Tips-...10_story2.aspx


Maybe she wants to eat that stuff to somehow save some money and save time.

Real food is better most of the time -- it is up to her.

you are right, she doesn't want to waste her money on the food. It just the nutrisystem wants her to eat 6 times a day. And her schedule won't allow for that.
I looked at some of the foods. muffins and stuffed potatoes...I can't relate to that because I don't eat that type of foods.
We went to a noodle house tonight with our guest. I had a seafood pho soup. it was really good but not much seafood so I am feeling peckish...think I will go make myself a smoothie.

I have been listening to the music of les miserable, and I just finished reading up on the plot and such. We see it at our auditorium next month. The music is just beautiful.

Hi, Bizi,

That six meals a day rule is the stupidest thing in the world.
It is a shame that those programs do not let people learn their body's rhythm and what works for them.
I do not eat breakfast and only eat lunch three times a week. The other days I basically have a good sized dinner a snack close to bed time.

Les Mis is powerful. I saw some of the movie version on tv last year.
I hope that you enjoy it.


Hubby loves chicken Pho!!!
When the people who run his current restaurant see him coming in the door, they know to bring him lots of extra veggies/greens.
The day we got married eleven years ago, we stopped to buy take out Pho on the way home.
So that is one of our memories.

I hope that you are well. Keep taking care.

Mari
