I'm trying to increase my protein and lower my carbs (trying to stick to lower GI carbs too) to get over my weight loss plateau. Today's estimated calorie intake is 1457 and honestly, it seems like a ton of food. I'm hoping to either do bootcamp tonight or get in a 5K. I have to pack for a trip tonight, so not feeling confident on getting out for bootcamp.
