As you might know, and as we always stress with our clients, tracking daily caloric intake is essential to effective and sustained weight loss. Part of this task includes knowing your daily caloric intake limit and how that limit breaks down throughout the various meals. So, if you have a daily breakfast caloric intake of say 300 calories, you might be wondering what that looks like. Well, here are some examples;
Example 1 = 286 Calories
1 bowl of Kellog's Corn Flakes, low sodium, non-sweetened (104)
1 cup (8 oz) of milk, 1% milk (102)

4 oz cup of orange juice ( 56)
Example 2 = 298 Calories
1 large egg, scrambled (95)
1 slice of whole wheat bread/toast (130)
8 oz of grapefruit juice (73)
Example 3 Smoothie/Shake = 312 Calories
