    My nutrition plan:

    Until December 19- I plan to keep with my current eating trend which is about average in protein, a little high in fats, and lower in carbs. I don't follow specific macros, but I do try to keep my protein around 20% or more of my day and my carbs under 40% though I prefer under 30%. I do this because it helps me feel full. I tried doing higher carbs and it just didn't work well for me, but I don't like keto or overly low carb either. Being in the middle of the two keeps me sane and from binging most of the time.

    After December 19- I plan on starting a maintenance phase on this date, at which point I'll be focusing more on carbs and eating close to maintenance until the new year.

    For the new year- Once New Year's Eve has passed I will be returning to my usual eating plan as outlined above plus any tweaks that happen during my maintenance phase. I have also decided that I'm going to try to make it so that I'm not cutting too many more calories than what I already have as my current intake is about 250-500 less than the maintenance calories for my ultimate goal weight depending on the day. I know this means that my weight loss will slow and it's possible I'll reevaulate this idea later.

    What might get in my way- Me, myself, and I. I know what I need to do, I know how to do it, it's just a matter of actually doing it.

    My nutrition plan to push me to the new year and for next year is stay within my macros and document in my diary everything I am eating. Using my diary on MFP really helps me stay focused! I know I will have some splurges through the holidays, however, I am going to offset with other things. Drinking Lots and Lots of water!!!

    What may get in the way is myself, focus! 🤗

    Have a great day team! 💃💃💪💃💃

    Tasty Tuesday - Nutrition Goals
    My main nutrition goal is just to stick to my calorie range (which depending on my activity level any given day is somewhere between 1200-1600 calories). I’m currently working on getting more protein as well, there’s quite a bit of lifting in the exercise program I’m doing and I think more protein will help me see better results.

    As for what will get in my way, my biggest concern is visiting the in-laws for Christmas. They aren’t food pushers or super unhealthy eaters but I do feel like I have less control over my dieting when I’m visiting others. Plus we get to see old friends and that usually involves going out to dinner which I want to just be able to relax and enjoy. So I’ll probably just stay at maintenance that week as a balance so I don’t have to worry about my diet so much but also don’t go overboard with the eating.

    Tasty Tuesday - Nutrition Goals

    My goals for this Holiday season is to really stick to my fasting schedule like GLUE! Yesterday was a great trial day as it was a work from home snow day and my sons were home (same today😅). Getting the ball rolling on IF after Thanksgiving is always hard, so I am pleased with my progress this week so far☺️. Trying for OMAD on party/celebration planned days.... and no cheats on weekends will be tough, but I am really going to try to keep the calories in check and the food choices too. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day I will eat off plan, but within a caloric budget.

    For the New Year

    I would like to try new things this coming year-- a new workout plan---possibly with a new trainer at a new gym---looking into this now. Diet might factor into that as the gym I am considering also plans out my nutrition/macros with me. Overall I will still do IF as it seems to really help me bounce back from an "off day" and allows me to bank my calories so I can still enjoy my foodzzz ---I AM A LIFETIME FOODIEEE😋🤷🏻‍♀️😆 truth!

    What might get in my way?

    My family.... they love food and are often brining food to me....but it is ultimately my choice to eat or not I know that--- so I can get in my own way (as Kai mentioned above).... it's really mind over matter and just having the ability to STOP myself from over indulging. Willpower!💪🏻
