2600 calories per day, a bit much???

carla0522 Posts: 6 Joined: 2011/08/12	2011/08/12, 11:48 PM My nutrition plan says I shouldbe having no more than 2600 clories per day but that seems way too much. I also have been trying to cut down on my suger intake as well. Is this all too much for my body to handle?

That will tell you the minimum amount of calories you'll need per day... add a couple hundred to that and you should be fairly on par with what you need per day to lose weight. -------------- I see the words you are typing, but all I read is *click*click*click* Fat loss isn?t under the control of the magic fat loss fairies. - Alwyn Cosgrove

I changed my position from beginner to intermediate and added the special glutes and thighs program as well as the 12 week abs but it did not change my exercise routine. Can anyone help me with this?

I did the plan for today and added a little cardio so Im a little sore. Once I get into the routine it should run smoothly. Thanks for your help, standby I may need more hep with other stuff...lol
