    Sunday's weigh in was 163.4.

    That was after a night of drinking and mac and cheese though... lol!

    This week I'm changing things up by limiting my carb intake. I've done keto before for a prolonged period and didn't really enjoy the 20 gram threshold, so I'm going to stick to under 80-100 grams for now. I eat a lot of carbs, so this should help me improve my food choices a bit.

    I also talked to SO into eating more whole food dinners. I'd like to aim for a protein/salad/carb plate for my OMAD, so I stocked up for that this week! Lots of good salad ingredients!

    Now that I'm kind of in the swing of eating once a day, I'm ready to make some changes to the food itself. Thanks again for the comments so far, it helps to have feedback!

    It was SO amazing! My idea didn't win but we had 6 different pans of mac and cheese! Thankfully I pawned the leftovers off on others haha

    It's just that time of year! Everyone's sick it seems like.

    And amen to the getting back on the wagon!! After a day of feasting I was looking forward to fasting again. Crazy how that works!

    Having a regular treat day is one of the benefits of this way of eating. I have found that sometimes I will lose weight after a splurge!

    True to my word I started my eating window with a BAS (big *kitten* salad)

    I wound up at about 1250 total calories for the day.... I think the salad is key! I was too full to eat any junk after! I had a 6" quesadilla and beans as well with some chicken... my carb intake ended up being below 80 as well :smile:

    Today I'm starting off the morning with a cup of coffee and HWC. We got our first snow last night and I feel like being decadent.

    Hope everyone is staying warm!

    Snow? Wow..I love snow <3 However, for little old me to see snow, I have to drive for more than 5 hours to the mountains. You are doing amazing with the carb intake :) Keep up the good work :+1:
