Why I Started

• Almost hit 210
• Decided I wanted to take control
• Knew I needed to learn about my body
• Decided to weigh myself daily for the data

Lessons Learned (These are just for me)

• My body doesn't process carbs well
• Around 80g of carbs per day usually = weight loss
• High protein diets leave me feeling energized and focused
• 100g of carbs per day usually = sustaining
• If I'm in a "losing pattern" I can cheat without killing momentum (it slows but progress is still made)
• There are a lot of landmines
• Always read labels
• Most things are fine to eat as long as you can "afford it"
• Having an understanding of your macro ratios, quality of food, and what works for your body is more important than counting calorie
