Day 4 | Breakfast | Protein and Link to Nutrition Data

So, today,

I am starting off with 1 piece of Udi's Gluten free bread toasted with a drizzle of olive oil.
(Serving Size = 150 calories. 4 - Grams of fat. 4g of Protein and 1g of Sugar.) So, I guess I ate half of that.

For the Olive Oil - a drizzle which is around a tsp = 40 calories, 5 grams of fat and 0 protein.

With a 1/4 of a cup of cashews. (Serving Size = 1/4 of a cup is 170 Calories 14 Grams of fat. 5 Grams of protein.)

1 small Banana = 90 Calories | 0g of Fat and 1 gram of protein.

Squeezed Orange Juice with a 1/2 of squeezed lime juice. = Around 20 Calories, 0 fat.


To find out calories of certain foods - go to the following link.

So, this morning calories total: 300
Fat: 19 grams
Protein: 10 grams of protein.


Now for protein - According to my cousin the average person should have at least 60 grams of protein.

Not sure how much fat I should take in - I'll have to look into that one later.

Now, I am not sure how much calories I should take in a day, but if I want to lose the weight. I should probably stick to about 1200 kilocalories a day.

I can't believe I am 168 though, I am hoping this is more than just water.
