Went on a 3 mile hike today with an old friend. I'm in a lot of pain right now, but I want to say it was worth it. I know I burned calories but the pain in my hips makes it hard to move afterwards. I haven't even gotten to the next day when I know I'm going to be needing some icy hot and ice packs. *Sigh* Weight loss hurts. 😧

Been feeling kind of poopy lately...tired, groggy, snappy, unmotivated. While my diet hasn't suffered for it at all, because I enjoy eating this way...my workout routine has. 😧

Back down to 188 today. Seems as though the drops are consistent right now. Hoping it continues.
Had snapper and broccoli for dinner, and isopure protein in half goat milk half water this morning. Almonds to fill the snack urge puts me at 950 calories today. 😊

My "diet" for those who have asked. I don't follow a diet, because in my opinion many deprive your body of the nutrients it needs. My goals are as follows:
CARBOHYDRATE 25% macro, 99g daily (or as little as possible)
FAT 35% macro, 66g daily
PROTEIN 40% macro, 165g daily
Calories (kcal)-1650 (I strive for 1300-1400, but allow up to 1650)
Protein (g)-165
Carbohydrate (g)-99
Fiber (g)-25
Sugar (g)-25
Fat (g)-66
Saturated Fat (g)-15
Polyunsaturated Fat (g)-5
Monounsaturated Fat (g)-55
Cholesterol (mg)-250
Sodium (mg)-2000
Potassium (mg)-4700
All of these are relatively close to the "ideal" intake for an adult woman. My "diet" is centered around making sure I get the minimum daily intake of all the nutrients (and stay under the bad ones like unsat fat and sodium, etc.) I listed while within my calorie limit. I've made changes such as using almond, chickpea, and coconut flour as wheat flour substitutes. Learned to like fish, which I didn't before. Trade in boxed meals for home cooked ones 90% of the time. I've traded in lovely bread for 5g carb wraps, and 85% of my sugar intake is no longer from coca cola, but fruit in moderation instead. I eat larger portions of meat for the protein requirement, and have even researched and bought protein powder which I never thought I'd do.
So for those that were interested in my diet approach here you go. So far I've seen a drop from 65% carb macro to 35% (still trying), and an increase in protein from 12% to 20-25%. I get my polyunsat fat, fiber, and 1/2 of monounsat fat daily now and am working on lowering sodium count and upping potassium. These are my goals, a bit convoluted compared to some, sorry! I like working with numbers since it gives me something to do, and gives me a sense of accompliaent when they increase or decrease according to slight changes I make. Hope this made SOME sense.

Good day today, had protein powder for breakfast in milk, followed by a small lunch of homemade coleslaw and cheesy cauliflower, and dinner was homemade jalepeno poppers with cheese and bacon and a burger (no top bun) with avocado, lettuce, and tomato. The isopure in milk put me at 1600 calories today, so I'll be exploring lower calorie options for the protein powder that add flavor to my morning "meal". Obviously water is an option, but that is not as satisfying. 😂 Open to suggestions!
