    I went a bit berserk yesterday too. Didn't get my
    steps and ate a bunch of cheese after I closed out my diary. :# So much for my good intentions. I ate almost 500 grams of beef for dinner and still snacked. I gots issues. But I'm down a pound. So alls well that ends well.

    For 10/3
    Planning and packing breakfast/lunch the night before :)
    Start using Fitbit again :o Didn't find it until this morning
    Logging my entire day's food in the morning :( only got up to lunch, but did remember to log dinner before going to bed last night
    80 oz water daily :smile:
    Vitamins daily (especially weekends) :)
    Accomplish one put off household task daily :( nothing yesterday, sat on the couch and watched baseball
    Be more patient with others :) This I was able to do apparently. Thought I was being short with someone but those I asked said it didn't come across that way. Taking it as a win!!

    I have fell off with working out last few days. I will get back on track:) Eating has been good. Wondering if I should increase my carbs some. Finding it hard to stay under 20.

    If increasing your carbs to 30 or even 40 means success for you, do it. You can always lower them later if needed.... but better to feel successful than as if you're always struggling!!

    Absolutely, totally agree. I now limit my total carbs to 50. No negative effects with a lot more flexibility and freedom of choice.

    All I want to do is stop overeating. I eat when I don't want to (I want to) and then feel terrible once the food is gone. I know I am happiest and most in control when following a LCHF plan. I am going to try again starting tomorrow. Maybe posting in this group will help me get past the first day.

    Calorie goal: 1500
    Carb intake: 25g

    This is all I can commit to for tomorrow.

    Carbs. Under 30
    Cals. Way too low. Saw Bladerunner at the only time it was showing in English and missed dinner.
    Steps. 15,950
    Activity. 249/300 weekly minutes

    So kinda hungry this morning, which is really unusual, but will probably wait and eat early lunch.

    Like I said. I'm really bad at these.

    I'm just going to focus on low carbs today.
