    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? No
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

    Habits to maintain this month:
    Kitchen Closed? Yes
    Did you go "nuts" with nuts today? Yes(15 days -free)
    Within Sugar macro today? Yes (14 days)

    Pass day 2/3 (this is for accountability to myself and my records).

    I track my sugar... it helps with my fruits intake.

    The information on this website has been very helpful for tracking my fruits and making better choices.

    ✅ Exercise: 82 mins
    ✅ Calories: under goal
    ✅ Tracked

    Remaining pass days: 3️⃣

    I focus on keeping my macros balanced, fibre high, and sugar/sodium low.

    As well as weight, I track muscle/fat %ages, and BMI on my digital scale, and body vital statistics.

    Tracked logged and remembered how to use the snow shovel, ice scraper took me 40 minutes to clean the suv and the end of the driveway.

    I try to focus on my net carbs I usually do well with keeping them under and my sodium always is under without trying. I have been trying to reduce some “bad” protein like meat. I am trying to go in a WFPB direction so far the wf is easier but it’s something to work towards even if it’s not 100%.

    I track calories, carbs, protein, fat, fiber, and sugar. I try to keep my net carbs (carb grams minus fiber grams) below 150g, my fiber above 25g, and my added sugar as low as possible, usually below 40g (the way MFP tracks sugar I have to eye ball it though, they include for example the sugars in cabbage as sugar, which I wouldn´t really worry about so on big vegetable days sometimes that goes over and I still count it as good.)

    X Exercise: No. (Rode in a car all day!)
    ✅ Calories: Yes.
    ✅ Tracked: Yes.

    Remaining pass days: 1

    I'm tracking carbs and fiber, as I'm trying to eat less than 15 net carbs per meal so as not to raise blood sugar and increase insulin.

    I track the following closely each day: calories, protein, fibre, and sodium. The rest — there are rarely any issues.

    I track mostly protein and more loosely fat and carbs. Depending on what's happening with my body, I'll focus on sodium or fiber and sometimes potassium. The last column in my food diary changes often. :-)

    Pass day due to lack of exercise. Calories are within range.

    At the moment I track saturated fat and fiber. I try to keep my saturated fat at 13gm or less but otherwise don't care about fat. I've tracked sodium and sugar in the past but they were both so low I moved on to the current two items. I loosely pay attention to carb/fat/protein percentages as I try for a 40/30/30 split but usually the fat is higher than 30%. This is mostly due to cooking with olive or avocado oil.

    Yes x3. A full body dumbbell workout and yoga.
    I don’t track anything but calories right now. I glance at my macros sometimes and am aware that my carbs are way high and my protein too low.. but I’m tackling one thing at a time. The last six weeks I’ve been focusing on portion sizes and getting my snacking under control.
    But it probably is time to start swapping out some of my beloved carbs for more protein, especially with how much I enjoy strength training.

    I am a huge carb lover too do tots feel ur pain!! Xo
