I calculated my carbs and I’m actually not over or under. Just right. I eat roughly 155 grams of protein and carbs every day and 45 grams of fat. Fat is where I’m over. It’s as simple as switching my form of protein from peanut butter to…egg whites. Or all egg whites for breakfast and keep the peanut butter. I’ll figure it out. My goal is 40% Protine, 40% Carbs, and 20% Fat. I’m glad I took the time to check where I was. Something as simple as that could slowdown my results.

Some how I’m eating a lot more, but starting to lose weight. I like this scenario. I must have been under eating. I set up an account with FitDay.com and updated everything I eat. It’s a pretty easy system to use once you get it set up, and is a good way to see where you’re at now-and-then, or track daily if you have the time.
Motivation:
I’m still fighting off this cold, but still very upbeat, and positive.
“If today I only think about yesterday, then when I get to tomorrow I will have another empty yesterday.” I just changed yesterdays quote a bit. I tend to dwell on the past more then I long for the future. Either way today was a brand new day. Even with a cold I decided to be positive and look for the good in everything. I also let go of a lot of old hang-ups and worries. I feel so much better, and have a sense of relief.
