Struggling to meet daily carbohydrate and fiber requirements!

Hello all,

I recently started using Myfitnesspal in January after realizing that after 9 months of twice weekly training with a trainer, my body lost muscle and gained fat likely due to the wrong diet. In 2017 I started weight watchers and lost 50 pounds over three years and since then the way I ate was heavily influenced by that system. A lot of intuitive eating, a lot of fruit actually (which was zero points on my WW plan).

​

Anyway I learned I have not been getting enough of my macronutrients especially since using MyFitnessPal. Now I'm a lot better about protein and I always meet that goal but I am having a really hard time getting 240g of carbohydrates in every day! Anyone have any advice or guidance they can give around this? It's so confusing! Also fiber seems to be falling short.

​

I started taking a multivitamin to cover for the micronutrients that I'm not getting as well from my diet.

​

Thanks in advance :)
