Great!
Hoping this will help: I find if I eat a pretty big breakfast & don’t go too long between meals, I don’t binge.1 -

And whack sodium back down.
I’m ok with fat % which is just a little too high since Sat Fat is doing much better.

Haven’t forgotten this.,.on vacation-still tracking- but since we’re eating out I have no confidence in numbers. Will post here again beginning June 25/26.1 -
Changing up my macros to ketogenic goals. I felt my best when eating that way- my arthritis has worsened since introducing more carbohydrates into my diet.
Macro goals:
20g carbs
160g protein
125g fat
5%C 35%P 60%F
The protein is higher than recommenced to be truly ketotic but I think I need to be higher because of my age and workouts.
We’ll see how I feel after 2 weeks and adjust from there.
Hope your holidays were great @MadisonMolly20170 -

Wednesday- I know that I wasn’t even close today ☹️ Spending the day with my husband ALWAYS ends up in me eating sugar which turns into a free for all. I am disappointed in myself.1 -
