    Let's call it minding our macros month. We have to be under, but by no more than 100 cals, and we can be over on protein by 10g?? What do you think peeps??

    thankfully, we are tracking sugar. I was over on everything. I find post leg workout I crave the carbs.. and last night I ate them. so yesterday 10 + 90= 100. time to mind my macros.

    was so hangry yesterday, I ate all the foods. My son made a garlic bread pizza for supper last night. I had mine with no cheese and lots of lean hamburger with veggies. anyway killed my cals and carbs and protein was too low, but damn it was good and when someone else cooks I am HAPPY. so I am thankful we are tracking sugar.
    150 + 10= 160. I suck again this month Michele. least I am consistent

    Really sorry for not getting over here sooner...

    8/4 - 50
    8/5 - 40
    8/6 - 40
    8/7 - 30
    8/8 - 50
    8/9 - 0 (didn't log)
    8/10 - 20
    8/11 - 40
    8/12 - 40
    8/13 - 40

    Total - 350

    So this is based on:
    - Calories not over or under more than 100
    - Carbs, Fat under by any amount
    - Protein under or over by any amount
    - Sugar under by any amount
