I am an insanely busy working mom of 2. We are always on the go. I wanted to find easier ways to meal plan. It is already a very daunting process that can be overwhelming the first few weeks.
Using the tools below should help you along! (Right click the photo and save to your desktop to print)
1200-1499 Calories:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1500-1799 Calories:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1800-2099 Calories:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2100-2299 Calories:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2300-2499 Calories:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2500-2800 Calories:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trying to figure out which calorie bracket you fit into? Follow the instructions below:
A. Take your current body weight in pounds and multiply that number by 11 to calculate your baseline calories.
B. Then, add 400 to your baseline calories to equal your daily caloric needs.
C. And then, subtract 750 from your caloric needs – this equals your calorie target.
If you wanted to maintain weight, use this equation:
Multiply your body weight by 11 and add 400 calories.
If you wanted to gain weight, use this:
Multiply your body weight by 11 and add 900 calories.
**Very important! If your calorie target calculates below 1200, roundup to the 1200 level. You should NEVER go below 1200 calories in a day – it is not healthy over an extended period of time.
