HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY FRIDAY
Accountability Mission: No Mercy and No Excuses
Weekends can be trecherous. Ofen times we find ourselves on a different schedule in a different enviornment. How do you deal with this? Tell the whole truth and be accountable. Have you made a plan to stay on the straight and narrow in spite of added weekend temptations? Its time to make a plan.
This is a diet for life. If you prefer a euphamism like lifestyle change then go for it. In the end we have to have some life long plan that will enable us to loose the fat and keep it off even on weekends and holidays. Have you given careful consideration to what your plan should be?
...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.

LV'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
Thurday
I did ok yesterday. Well within maintenance range of up to 1700 cals. Protein adequate (> 60g) and carbs held in check (< 100g). I picked up some decaf tea bags and I'm back to my liquid splenda sweetened sweet tea with lemon made extra sweet. Between this and powerade zero I got my water in after missing the mark for two days. Even a couple years out sipping can still be difficult.
Here's what really concerns me.
July month to date
A day is a day but its the aggregate that really matters. For the month my protein is fine but its well below my average of about 100g. The reason? Higher carbs, well above my normal average. I know carbs and I are not friends. This level is just fime for some but not for me.
Its about more than just calories. I need to make a few adjustments.
Fat(g) | Carbs(g) | Net C(g) | Prot(g) | KCals |

Food: 1664kcal | (Fat: 58.65g, Protein: 66.91g, Carbs: 167.88g) |

Carbs are definitely not my friend but as of late it's hard to tell cause
more and more seem to be creeping into my menu. Thursday was not
good. I got up in the night, became an elephant and eight 15 circus
peanuts. The day had gone so well. Why didn't I just get some
protein. I have plenty. Even a protein bar. But noooooo. My Thurs. -
Next time I wake up hungry I won't take a trip to the zoo.
I keep powerade zero, try to buy large quantities when its .49 for a
32oz bottle, Kroger runs it quite a few times. Even propel zero. Water
is the easy for me too.

We've both got to make either a pact with heaven or hell and get off these carbs, lol. At a minimum we're getting adequate protein but we know carbs just hang on as fat for some of us.
We're going to d this together. No late night snacks. If its real hunger half a scoop of protein will do it. And, plan our carbs and stick to it. We will do this.
