    Great job! So you just ate whatever as long as it fit within your calorie limit?

    Yup! And to begin with they probably weren't the best choices. But I slowly discovered I was a lot more full if I ate more protein and fat. So probably about 3 months in I started tracking macros and I've found that I do best at 40% protein, and 30% carbs and fat. Because of tracking my macros, I can say my diet has improved a great deal from before just because I am eating more balanced food and I used to be a carb nut so it forces me to consider if I reeally want that bread.

    But I'm not perfect by any means and there are many days I stay in my calories but my macros are off. I don't sweat it too much. I see it as an ideal day, and you can't be perfect all the time. Sometimes you just want a sandwich. :)

    You look great. I am hoping to get myself in gear and lose about 40 lbs. So far I have lost 6 lbs. Keep up the good work and you'll meet your goal.
