As a newbie, I am very confused about the many posts that refer to keeping calories at a reasonable number. As I read the menu plans for today, so many of them seem to be lower than what is recommended on other threads. Please help me to understand the importance of calories.

[chinahopes]

L: a pickle, slice of blocked cheddar cheese, 2 tbsp all natural organic peanut butter
S: 20 almonds
D: Atkins crustless chicken pot pie (it was way better than I'd anticipated)

Rowief, it is hard to judge based only on what people state in this thread, calories depend on what plan we are following and if we are counting calories at all.
People on JUDDD will do 500 calories or around that on low days, if what you have read here is a low day it will look like they are not having enough.
On the other hand we often do not mention how much oil/butter we use.

Calories are important if you decide to track them, some can comfortably loose even without counting calories and I have done that for a long time but as goal approached it seemed always more needed to start counting.
