Doing a little experiment...
All you faithful journalers have me curious. I have never tracked my calories, carbs, etc.. nothing. I eyeball my protein throughout a day, but that is it. So, with all the debates about what is okay and not okay to eat, and obviously I fall on the side of ~WHATEVER WORKS FOR YOU IS OKAY TO EAT~ , I am curious about what I am actually intaking each day. So yesterday I started writing down every single thing I ate or drank, and when. I am gonna do this for a whole week, because I really have no such thing as an average day, and I am gonna tally everything up and finally be able to say with authority what I eat, how often, how much, and how much calories, carbs, and fats are in my diet.
I am saying right now that the purpose of this is not to change my diet- I don't think there is anything wrong with it. It is not to lose weight- I am at goal and happy. It is just to satisfy my curiosity and to give myself some absolute truth when I answer people's questions instead of just guessing. I do not mind if you criticize my choices- I am putting them out there in public after all, but please do not simply tell me I will gain all my weight back because I ate X,Y, or Z, because I tend not to believe that anyway.
That's it.. just throwing it out there.. this time next week I will post my results, even if no one else cares, lmao..
And FYI- writing everything down all damn day while running around like a chicken without a head is a pain in the ass! I don't know how you all do it regularly!
I am still loving life with my sleeve! Been maintaining at or below goal for over 4 years!
