And I believe this is true for many just starting or restarting or adjusting a WOE. I tend to do the same, but when I am satisfied with the correct approach, I embrace simple and do not track anything. I stay with what I know works and then look for variety within the WOE.

At some point, more protein likely won't mean more glucose, but at some starting point lower down, it likely will. Which is why I don't really advocate what I do for everyone--the level I keep my protein at doesn't obviously hurt my lean mass any, but I can't know what it will do for anybody else, I do think it comes down to personal experience.

Very well stated.
