[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I’m not sure where all the assumptions are coming from, but I’m not starving myself and I’m not low carb. Here’s the last couple meals I ate:

Breakfast: 1/2 sesame bagel with scrambled eggs and chicken sausage, coffee with cream and milk

Dinner last night: 3/4 of a bison steak grilled in avocado oil, steamed broccoli/ artichokes /spinach with garlic, a small portion of whole wheat pasta with olive oil and parsley. For an extra snack later I had a bowl of mixed puffed rice and whole wheat raisin cereal with low-fat kefir.

This looks like the diet of someone trying to lose weight.  [/quote]

Really? I guess I should add my calorie requirements at my height, weight and activity level are around 1300. I’m trying to eat around 1700. Breakfast today was buckwheat whole wheat pancakes with pb and choc chips, scrambled eggs in olive oil, coffee. [/quote]

1300 calories is the requirement for someone trying to LOSE weight, and even then that is at the more extreme end.  Seriously OP you need to find some better sources of information.  Something is going on with you.  1700 calories is more likely what you need to eat to maintain weight.  If you are trying to GAIN weight and you are doing any physical activity, you need MORE calories than that.  Not buckwheat pancakes and rice puffs.  This really sounds like you have some disordered thinking and eating habits [/quote]
