Was your goal to "tally" or "stick"? I'd say if it was the former, which I inferred, you did an excellent job. If it was to do both (tally and stick) then that's your call Good work Ken on doing another 90 days.

Yellow card the last two days because I made myself a fathead pizza. Good, but super-cheesey. I think that's too much almond flour for me, too. My arthritis has acted up the last two times I've made it. I think I'll google around about nuts/almonds and inflammation.

Ken, congrats on another successful 90 days! Pretty good choices most of the time are a success to me, especially considering the challenges you faced - vacation, trying to move DD, etc.

Day 90 of 90

Goal of this challenge: Simply to tally how well I do sticking to my diet plan over the next 90 days.

Good days: 51
So-so eating: 24
Off the mark: 15
~~~~~~~~~~
Late snacks: 31

I finished this one up on a good note. Thanks for the kudos Thud and Kristine. I'm a few pounds down from when I started, so I can't complain. I liked the format of this challenge. I know how I need to eat to lose and/or maintain my weight. I'd like to eat that way everyday for 90 days, but that just wasn't happening. So this tweak to the challenge - taking it all the way to the end - lets me know how well I do over time. I did OK. I don't have to eat perfectly everyday to maintain my weight loss. That's good, 'cause I ain't perfect.

I'll consider this a completed challenge baseline and start a repeat of this challenge today. The goal is to improve on these numbers. I really want to get that late night eating thing under control. I think there is real benefit to a 12+ hour fast and I'd like to make getting one in most every day my new normal. Practice, practice, practice.

Day 1 of 90

Goal of this challenge: Simply to tally how well I do sticking to my diet plan over the next 90 days and do my best to improve upon the results of my last 90 challenge (See Post 607).

I'm sticking to the same high fiber/slightly higher net carb version of LCHF that I did over the previous 90 days. I will also do some IFs from time to time. A good OP day will have macros of around 15% carbs, 25% protein, and 60% fat. I'll log my food regularly and shoot to fall within the following limits (upper range for more active days):

60g - 85g total carbs
30g+ Fiber
30g - 45g net carbs
125g - 200g of protein
125g - 175g of fat
2200 - 2800 calories

A good day is a day where I feel that I ate according to plan. A so-so day will be one where I feel that I ate more than I needed, but still within reason. An off-the-mark day is a LCHF pig-out day when I know that I've had way too many carbs and/or calories. Those days usually result in a significant bump up on the scale in the days following. Yes - I still have those days, but I'd like them to be few and far between.
