Hello - as most of you probably already know Im trying to gain weight so Ive been trying to add up a days worth of eating for me when it comes to calories and fat. I really dont have any idea what Im doing but if my calculations are right Im eating about:
-1750-1800 calories a day
-this only added up to about 25 grams of fat
-Which is about 188 calories from fat (I think)
Anyways what do these numbers tell you - Im guessing its very low when it comes to fat grams and calories from fat because I eat very low fat or fat free foods all day.
So how many fat grams and calories from fat should I be getting a day when staying around this many calories and still staying IBS safe? I tried to do a seach on this sort of topic but didnt find what Im looking for. I think I read that Heather says to stay at about 20-25% calories from fat so I think Im way below that since 20% of 1750 is is 320 and Im only at about 188. Does anyone have any sugguestions, food ideas (must be GF also) or links to good websites that may help me? Basically I need to know how many fat grams I should be eating a day and how to get there! Thanks!
