Happy Monday morning everyone - What a great day. I was on duty through the weekend so I was busy and reliant on the chow hall for food. All things considered I did well with my WOE. There is so much freedom by not allowing the food to have power over me. I just make the choices I know I need to, log my food and make sure that they make sense with plan. I don't have to freak out about what I can and can't have - I just eat. What an amazing blessing. My BGL through the weekend was between mid 80s and mid 90s. I felt great and had lots of energy. My lesson learned is that I read an article on RDI, Macros and CICO which was interesting. Basically is that CICO works for some - Macros are important and that it needs to be balanced on an individual plan based on your level of activity. Nothing earth shattering here in the way of information but reassuring that we have to make our own plans and that there is no magic number that works for everyone.I am so grateful that this app exists and that there are supportive people here to reach out to when I need help. I hope you all had a great weekend and took the time to pursue your life's goals.
