I was recently in an accident and cannot exercise; particularly, I cannot put weight on my feet or lay my feet on the ground. Consequently, I have to maintain my weight purely through diet. I typically aim for around 1300 calories/day.

So far I have:

  • breakfast: fried egg/egg white on toast with a glass of water (about 200 cals)
  • lunch: chicken breast, small piece of bread, with a large spinach salad (about 300 cals)
  • afternoon snack ?
  • dinner ?

Thank you.

    Exercise has many health benefits, but has much less to do with weight management than people think. If you can, try to eat more of your calories earlier in the day. A hearty breakfast, filling lunch, and light dinner (or even fasting). Eat plenty of fiber. Sorry to hear about your accident, and I hope you’re able to get back on your feet.
