Flipping out --- just a wee bit....

carriea67

Hi Everyone -

So here's the back story -- I started a 4 week metabolism reset on June 1st and have been consistent with eating at my TDEE (sometimes a bit under and sometimes a bit over) and then I went on vacation for the past week and although I tracked most of it - I am sure that I went over my TDEE.

Then yesterday happened - I barely cleared 1500 calories (my TDEE 2079) and they were junk filled calories....I could give you any number of excuses but fact is I didn't plan well.

So I know (having the read the stickies a lot) that it is better to go over than under and now I am flipping a wee bit...did I just mess up my reset?

Thoughts, opinions....

Thanks!
Carrie

Don't beat yourself up over what is past.

Start new today and focus on that. We can not change what happened but we can make it NOW better.

Breathing -- yep that's pretty important....okay freak out is over.

Protein...oy that's always my downfall...BUT I am just adding beans & chicken & protein powder & nuts to my daily diet.....my goal is to hit my protein macro every day this week.....

Thank you very much for talking me off the ledge....
