Calories???

I think I've finally got my macros under control.
Calories are important.
Your protein goal is also just as important.
The net carbs are a limit.
Your fat is filler as needed
I've also learned that big colorful circle that I was giving all my attention to is pretty worthless to me. Yes it tells me if my percentages are off somewhere but I can have perfect percentages while way under my calories. I need to pay attention to my actual numbers starting with calories. If I'm way under (not fasting or meal skipping) then I'm doing something wrong!
My net carbs are a limit! So as long as I'm not cheating and following the WOE I know this shouldn't be an issue!
Protein! This is my downfall right here. It's either super low (how the hell did I manage that?!?) or not close enough to my goal. I give myself a 20g leeway on this macro if I'm lower than that I need to eat something!
If these numbers are good then I know my day is in a happy spot.
Mind you all of this is for a normal Keto day not fasting! If I'm fasting then I place in 'ghost' meals from the day previous to keep an eye on my macros!
No snacks either!! I only have snacks now if I notice my macros need some assistance!
