Hey! That looks almost like what I eat!
By my calculations, this is probably going to be only about 1100 calories. You did not say how big the tilapia is supposed to be, so the total calories can not really be determined. While this amount of calories may be right for some, it certainly is not appropriate for everyone. Perhaps, you should specify before posting.
Rick,
I have to agree. We actually no longer eat grains (except brown rice) and we do not eat much fruit anymore. I believe this was one my wife’s meals, and we eat a LOT more than this now, we probably scaled this down to put on here. Honestly I will probably take this off, bad example of how we eat now. I know Lindsay is around 2,400 calories and I eat between 3,400 and 4,00 depending on my training schedule and current goals. Thanks for the critique sir, greatly appreciate it, have a great week!
