      So when i am calculating my total calories ... are the calories from protein , carbs and fats included in the calories that are mentioned on the product ( e.g. on the tuna can ) ? And what's the calories per gram of protein , carb and fat ?

      Total calories listed include protein, fat, carbs (and sugar alcohols) and in some countries/products fibre.
      Protein and Carbs = 4 calories per gram
      Fat = 9 calories per gram

      Calculating calories

      I got one question for you . How i can see ur same age as me... I got problem with the frequency of eating my meals . This is my last year in high school . I am worried how u deal with ur diet . Becouse when i wake up i am eating my first meal , before i go to school at 12:30 i eat my 2nd meal , in school on my pause at 15:40 eat my 3rd meal , after school at 19:00 i go directly to the gym and after the gym i eat my last meal at 21:00 . So are 4 meals enough ? Are they enough to accelerate ur methabolism ?

      In that case: Meal timing is irrelevant. Just eat whenever you feel like it.

      Meal frequency does not matter. 1 meal, 2 meals, 50 meals it doesn't matter.
