The recommended daily calorie intake is 2,000 calories per day for women and 2,500 for men.
In order to build muscle, you need to consume more calories than your body burns in a day – usually more than 1,800 calories.
Chontelle has previously shared that she often puts her children’s nutrition ahead of her own, something other parents relate to.
“Being a busy mom, I think nutrition is the first thing I sacrifice. I can easily forget to eat for the first half of the day, leaving me starving like a wild animal until noon. As a result, I eat food with the weight of my entire body,” she wrote on Instagram.
“OR I buy high sugar, processed food at the coffee shop.
“My goal is to get back to normal, prioritize my needs and fuel my body, especially when I’m living on minimal sleep.”
