    Happy March 1 - I made most of my goals today (except fat grams weres too high and protein grams were too low). Tomorrow will be better, right? :smiley:

    I'm trying to get 100-115 grams of protein daily and IT IS NOT EASY. I thought I'd just start eating a whole roasted chicken per meal. ;)

    Hi @Dabsydoolittle ! What is that!? I've been in fitness most of my life but still feel like a newbie with all these fancy fasts and diets and exercise trends!

    Hi @Dabsydoolittle ! What is that!? I've been in fitness most of my life but still feel like a newbie with all these fancy fasts and diets and exercise trends!

    I carb cycle. I am trying to live a mostly keto lifestyle but once or twice a month I will have my favorite carb foods. I feel like it helps me when I am at a plateau and it helps me to stay on track. I also do intermittent fasting 3-4 days a week.

    Hi @k8richer ! Carb cycling is when you vary your carb intake on a schedule. I do it weekly. I think low carb is a good idea, but I cannot stick to it, and I get the worst "keto flu" that I can never seem to shake. I am on a weekly schedule of 1 low carb day, 1 moderate carb day, 1 high carb day, 2 low carb days, 1 moderate carb day, 1 high carb day. I have only been doing it for a week, but it feels like a winner and something I can stick with - I feel great and I am definitely seeing results! If you want more info, I can message you.

    I am also looking for an accountability partner. Is there anyone who is interested in committing to exchange messages for some period of time, like a few weeks to build the habit?

    Hi, can you add me, I am have recently gotten back using MFP, as this is the only way I appear to be accountable to myself, otherwise I excercise and eat, eat, eat and not healthy, but very interested in the support and friendships to stay the course!!!!
