I know that I should know this but I am at work and have none of my informational stuff with me so I thought I would ask here.  How many grams of fat a day should we have?  I have hit a stall for the last 10 days so I am going to start using FitDay to keep track of everything and see what I am doing wrong.  I walk 3 miles everyother day and eat no sweets, but I am afraid I am able to eat to much at a time so I feel I better go back to the basics and start with keeping track of everything. Thanks!

If you want to do the math. 6 small meals times 15 grams per serving equals 90 grams per day. that seams a bit high. But I know I am not allowed more than 12- 15 grams per serving. I uauly don't come close to that in any one meal mostof the time.

Hope this helps.

Hi Stacey,

I Have a different set of rules from my surgeon but I will share them with you even though it is days past when you asked.

I am to choose food that contains less that 30% of its calories from fat, less than 10% of it should be saturated fat and les than 1% of trans fats.  If we stay within this guideline for each of our meals then we don't exceed the fat limits.

You are doing fantastic by the way!
