Day Three of Diet!
And it is going so well!! I am so excited to have a solid plan in place. I had previously been doing a lot of things right- the right type of foods, frequent meals, high protein- but just eating too much overall and perpetuating the insulin cycle with my carb intake. So I went from approx. 1900kcal to 1200kcal, with the following macronutrients: 30g fat, 100g protein, 130g carb. It was an easy transition from my prior approach; all I really had to do was scale back quantity (and absolutely no cheating for the first week or so).
Today is the day that really counts. I should use up my existing glycogen stores today and transition to fat as a source of energy tomorrow. This is the hardest part- and I’m so excited to go up against it. Hopefully there will be great progress pics to post next week

thanks guys! nice reading your comments. I’m still going strong on day 6, although a bit tired (an extra cup of coffee will see me through lol). I have a cheat meal to plan for this weekend
AnikaJS it is somehow comforting that you are the next state over; I don’t know any other girls who are interested (ok ok addicted) to fitness like I am! I am always happy to see a MA on someone’s profile, and NH is just fine too!!
