This week's been one of my less disciplined weeks regarding carbs. I have a grocery pick-up scheduled today so that'll get me back on track. Mentally, I'll have to get myself back on track. But that meatloaf sandwich from the diner that I went to for dinner last night was A++.
I re-calculate my macros at the end of every month. As weight goes down, I've adjusted my macros to make sure that it all lines up. Eating the same amount of calories and nutrients when I'm 5-7 pounds lighter than the month before would likely result in overeating.
I've also decided to increase my net carb intake to 25g as I'd like to incorporate some more fruits in to my life and not stress too much about going over my carb limit. I fluctuate between being able to hit or missing my protein goal. Meal planning is still a bit difficult for me because of a limited space thing. I'm not very used to cooking out meals for an entire week; best I can manage is 2-3 days max.
But as someone who hasn't been able to really stick to a diet, I'm very surprised and pleased that it's working! My trainer mentioned that consistency is key; it's better to be 80% consistent with some flexibility than to try and be 100% consistent all the time when starting out. This week's been a bit of a mess regarding consistency, but it's serving as a mental slap upside the head to get back on tarck!
