Okay, back on the wagon big time today. Here’s the plan:
Low Calorie/Low Carb Days:
Calories: 1085
Fat: 24 grams
Carbs: 81 grams
Prot: 135 grams
High Calorie/High Carb Days:
Calories: 1550
Fat: 24 grams
Carbs: 200 grams
Prot: 135 grams
I’m doing 3 low cal/low carb days in a row and then 1 high cal/high carb day. I’ll be following that rotation for a little while and see what my feedback is. The calories are kind of low, so I may be increasing them after a week or so – I’ll keep you posted.
Today’s foods:
- Meal #1: egg whites, omega egg, grilled veggies
- Meal #2: ground turkey, salsa, eggplant
- Meal #3: chicken, green beans, raw veggies
Haven’t had Meal #4 yet, but it’s probably going to be one of my Cottage Cheese Recipes If you haven’t gotten your free ebook yet, you can download it here. 🙂
What are your new goals?
Hey Audrey – I’m working on the specifics of those – I’ve been researching goal-setting a lot and think I need to revamp my methods! Will keep you updated!
Definitely let me know when you hit goal-setting gold. I could always use to improve my strategies. My goals have been all over the place since the end of the summer. I’m looking forward to the holiday challenge to kick my butt into gear and stir up some focus.
Audrey – I know the feeling! I’ve been floundering around back and forth with unclear goals too – not so much unclear goals, as unclear deadlines.. it’s hard to have the same emotional “whys” working for you when the challenge is over. So, this is what I’m doing – finding new, stronger “whys”, setting new deadlines (where I’m not as stressed out as before, but I’m still maintaining and making gradual forward progress, and adding phrases like “…and I easily maintain this weight or better on a permanent basis” …
I also think I need more well-rounded goals – not just body goals. I’m forming health, spiritual, relationship, financial goals etc too. I’m probably going to keep track of all these in a Goals Section in my planner – it needs to be a bigger focus in my life. I also need to make a new Goal Card!! 🙂
