    This is ugly
    Carbs 195g (G 100)
    Protein 143g (G 160)
    Fat 86g (G 40)
    This is the first time I have been honest about logging after a night out. Usually I would just ignore it and start again after the weekend. This is why I am not succeeding. I have to be honest with myself and realize that I can’t just ignore beer and sugar and pretend like it’s not going to affect my weight. I have to really want to do this.

    @MadisonMolly
    Health for me is reducing arthritic flair up from old sports injuries and lowering my abdominal fat to reduce the chronic diseases that come with it.
    Exercise is never the problem- sugar and bingeing are.

    @dvmmcw3094
    Great!
    Hoping this will help: I find if I eat a pretty big breakfast & don’t go too long between meals, I don’t binge.
