No but the thought of you two licking a spoon of peanut butter does wonders for me :D (Um, and in my mind, you're both licking the same spoon btw >:) ) (And the spoon is actually my... well, never mind B) )

3/19: 30 + 460 = 490 3/20: 20 + 490 = 510 3/21: 10 +510 = 520 I'm the poster child for "the more calories you can eat, the harder it is to keep your macros balanced" :'( Decided to ease into the 2400 calorie goal. 2200 per day until 3/31 2300 per day until 4/15 2400 per day starting 4/16

3/18: 30 + 430 = 460 THAT was interesting. I did better than I thought, although it was a LOT of work figuring out what to eat and how much. Hopefully, it will get easier.

SIDEBAR: Sooooo, I am trying once again to gain weight, preferably the good kind of weight. I've chickened out before but I'm gonna do it this time. I'm on a quest to add 15 pounds. On the advice of someone knowledgeable, today I changed my macros to: Calories: 2400 Carbs: 199g Fat: 88g Protein: 199g Pretty sure I got Fat…

3/17: 30 + 400 = 430

^^^ Yes. I had a 0 fat day and counted it :wink:
-
3/14: 40 + 320 = 360 3/15: 40 + 360 = 400 3/16: 0 + 400 = 400
-
30 for 3/13 + 290 = 320 - over on Protein so I'm cool with it
-
40 for 3/12 + 250 = 290 (just made it with Fat. 1 gram to spare. and within 2 grams for protein. Oddly enough, I'm having trouble making my maintenance calories of 2102. After three years of eating low cals, habits are hard to break. Who would have thought this would be a problem lol
-
LMAO! Thanks! I'm usually pretty close or over but somehow lost track of what I was eating that day!
-
10 for 3/10 + 210 = 220 30 for 3/11 + 220 = 250 (Way low on protein so didn't count it)
-
20 for 3/9 + 190 = 210 (dang Fat macro snuck over by 5g when I wasn't looking)
-
10 for 3/7 + 140 = 150 40 for 3/8 + 150 = 190
-
I agree, lean choices are critical, but I'm not sure why you would want to purposely keep your protein at or under goal, unless is is affecting your fat or sodium numbers. Going over with protein is not a bad thing and it usually means you're doing well at controlling your carbs and sugar.
-
30 for 3/5 + 110 = 140 0 for 3/6 + 140 = 140 (but had fun going over lol)
-
40 for 3/4 + 70 = 110
-
Don't worry Don... As Martha Stewart always said, "It's a good thing."
-
40 for 3/3 + 30 = 70

3/2 - over on carbs so 30.... total to date 30
-
Shouldn't we penalize for under Protein rather than over?
-
I'm gonna be over in Carbs today. Can we do Net Carbs instead? I got lotsa Fiber! B)
-
It was an anomoly. I've been keeping up even being sick but the whole car thing killed my appetitie yesterday. Doing better today, thanks. Normally, I'm around 2000 cals a day.
-
I didn't eat enough yesterday so I'm not going to cash in on that. I'll take a goose egg for March 1st.
-
Thanks! I practice this for sure. I've eliminated/replaced several already.

This just an update on my experience with ART. I've had 3 one a week sessions now and it is indeed helping. I've ended up with tendonitis in both shoulders. I get the ART session and a brief soft tissue massage. I've also had an ibuprofen injection in each shoulder which has immediately reduced the inflammation. As soon as…
