Full Day of Eating: Starting a Weight Loss Phase

Here’s a Full Day of Eating at ~1650 calories. This is a common calorie threshold at which many of our clients kick off a “cutting” or “fat loss” phase (i.e., decreasing calories for the purpose of losing weight). As you can see, you can still eat a lot of nourishing, healthy food with lots of carbs and fats at this calorie level and make progress toward your weight loss goals!
