Hi All,
I just joined the site a few days ago and have been kind of feeling my way around. Everything seems to make sense except... (you knew this was coming, huh?) ;^)
The nutrition program...
I have filled out my nutritional goals, and have been given the following basic guidelines by the program:
Required Daily Protein - 237 g
Required Daily Carbohydrates - 395 g
Required Daily Fats - 88 g
Required Daily Calories - 3160 kcal
In my "Personalized Nutrition Center" there is a link for "Personalized Nutrition Program" which states "this section contains your very own Personalized Nutritional Plan based on the goals you specified."
This link takes me to a "Personalized Nutrition Tracker" program that *tracks* the things I eat (and will analyze them for me), but doesn't seem to really lead to what I expected would be guidelines on specifically what, when, and how much I should be eating. Am I missing something (another link maybe), or does this sound correct?
Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. I just want to make sure I use all the tools I have available to me. Although I do eat fairly "healthy", I am really a novice at this and don't know which nutritional categories I may be grossly over or under on - other than trial and error by plugging things into the tracker program and seeing what comes out the other end. Bottom line - is there any more nutritional guideance that what I have described above? If so, please point me to it. If not, can you please suggest a good web site where I can find a good nutritional program to use in concert with my FT weight training program?
Anyway, I'm really glad I found this site. From the few days I've spent perusing things, the people seem very friendly, knowledgable, and motivational. That seems to be a great combination! I'm exicted and ready to get started.
Sorry for the lengthy intro...
Thanks,
Jeff
