How many calories should I be consuming a day?
Question:
I feel like im only getting like an average of 400 a day, is that good?
Answers:
400 calories is nowhere near enough.you will burn off many calories because you are still growing. It all depends on how active you are too. 2000 calories is a good aim to have. Just make sure you are eating healthy meals and snacking throughout the day. Your parents are responsible for your health as well, talk to them about it.
you should make an appointement with an RD. your metabolism, level of activity, muscle mass and other other factors affect your desired caloric intake, its not just height and weight.
no you need a lot more. I can eat a snickers bar or two and get 400 calories.
At your age and weight you need a little more than 2000 calories.
