Thoughts on my food intake please!

Hey All,

Well I started Kimkins yesterday. I have been doing pretty good on Atkins but felt I kept upping "low carb" junk food to keep my calories up. Nothing bad but things like pork rinds and nuts and what not. But I've decided to through out the dried pig fat for now and test the Kimkins waters again.

If you all could look at my fitday for the past 2 days and let me know what your take is.

Now you may think my calories are low for being a male but I had Gastric Bypass (granted 3 years ago) and sometimes I am forcing myself to eat. I will up them with chicken or eggs if you all feel it's too low. Otherwise I am pretty content at this rate.

I'm also starting a weight training program tomorrow so I may add in another Protein Shake or 2. Let me know what you all think. Thanks for the feedback.

Looks great to me. Are you already in ketosis from Atkins? If you are not in ketosis yet, you can eat more lean protein until you get there. I can't really say much about your calories and bari surgery since I know nothing about that, but the menus so far look good.

Good luck with the weight training too. It will help keep your skin toned as you lose.

Nice work, chunk! Keep us posted.
