Trying to be holistic in looking at my body and how it works. I am seeing that I feel great every morning, lots of energy and then around 5-6pm I crash. I don't feel hungry but I don't feel right. This doesn't work with having a preschooler. LOL. Macros are 70-80% healthy fats, trying to get 50-60grams protein and carbs vary 10-30. Calories have been 1400-1500 but I was trying for 1200-1400. I am going to aim for 1400-1500 and see how I feel in the pm. I also am studying hormones like leptin and find all of this fascinating. Interesting to think as wee lose fat with release leptin which tells us we are full. And as we have less weight to lose, we release less leptin and may feel more hungry. I also have been studying adrenal fatigue and I definitely have symptoms of this. I am going to partner with some herbs to support my adrenals. Started ashwagandha (this is very easy to grow and I planted one last year). I have also decided to try and only weigh myself weekly. I took my measurements today and am going to monitor these weekly as well. Keepin at this and enjoying it.......
