    Still got my big belly.

    Thanks for that. i really appreciate it. Did you have anything on the jacket potato as 700 calories seems a lot of calories for just chicken and a small jacket potato with veg. Thats what i normally have for tea but i didn't think it was that many calories.

    Still got my big belly.

    Thanks guy's. Could it be down to that for around 5 months i was only eating around 800 calories a day? i did make a thread saying that i was eating that much and didn't realise it was so low and as soon as i found out it was so low i upped it to 1500 with help from you guys.
