I also do 17 hr intermittent fasting. So, my first meal comes at 1pm. I prefer working out earlier in the day. I usually workout at 9:30am. Or 11am. However, that is a problem, since I should have my post workout meal within 30-45 mins of finishing my workout. I am 200lbs right now. I want to get back down to 175-180lbs. This means I must reduce my calories to 1300-1400 a day. Have 175 grams of protein, and add some carbs so I have energy to workout. So, I am thinking, some grilled chicken and a sweet potato for breakfast. Fish/grill chicken and spinach for lunch. And the same for dinner. Maybe a yogurt for a snack. Thoughts?

My point was that in some cases when it is justified to lose weight, for example athletes who are overweight or who have body composition goals for a specific sport, instead of following a low carb diet they should also pay attention to portions of fats. Basically even if they are consuming healthy foods, portions are still important. For example, instead of eating a big plate of spaghetti, they could add a nice salad as a side dish, and they should avoid using large amounts of oil for cooking, even if it’s a healthy oil like olive oil.

Instead of promoting a reduction of necessary calories in this case, wouldn’t promoting acceptance of that person’s current weight be the most appropriate thing to do?
