    10/06 Day 6: 600 calories burned (martial arts & gung fu)
    10/07 Day 7: 550 calories burned (martial arts & gung fu)
    10/08 Day 8: 200 calories burned (mini cycle)

    10/12 Day 12 250 calories burned (mini cycle)
    total calories 3139

    I'll be honest, I didn't attempt to cut out sugar or flour. For me personally. I have found through a long history of yo-yo dieting when I try to restrict, I can't handle the cravings and eventually go too far in the other direction. I hit my calorie & protein macros and don't sweat the rest.

    But I applaud the efforts of the rest of you! Great work!
