About how many calores were/are you consuming at 6 months
I am just curious. I think I may be eating too many. I have not been tracking my food for a little while thinking I was consuming around 1000 a day and I just checked on what I have had today so far and I am around 1200 without dinner... I must be eating around 1500 cals a day. I know this much be too many.
