I keep trying to make my own diet plan and I constantly go over in carbs and fats. Im a college student with limited resources on getting real technical with my meals. All the diet plans I see are either confusing or you need to be a chef to make them as they all have ingredients I am unfimiliar with. Can someone help me figure a way around this. To put my caloric intake where I want it I have to starve myself. I want to keep my calories at 1500/day. 30-35g of fat. Protein around 200g and the rest for carbs. Any help would be appreciated!

Those are some seriously low calories for a guy. I don't know if you can even get in 200 grams of protein on a 1500 calorie diet without eating only protein.

Yeah thats probably why I always go over in the other 2. Im thinking about cutting my protein down to 100-115g a days but I seen that most people believe you should keep your protein intake around your weight!
