Default Portion Control Challenge

February 7th to May 7th

My goal this time is to work on portion control. I'll accomplish this with occasional IFs, occasional food logging, no snacking and eating simple meals mindful of not putting too much on my plate. I will be keeping net carbs < 20 most days. I don't want to under-eat everyday, so I'll mix in 1 three meal, higher calorie day per week. This goal is rather subjective, so I'll just be counting the good days vs the days that I feel are way off base with these goals.

Day 3 of 90

Good days: 3
Bad days: 0

Practice Plan Thru March 31

Strict ADF: (I have not tried this, alternating every day)

o Eating Days - >200g protein, Low Fat
o Fasting Days - Bodyweight Exercise (sit, push, pull, squat)

If this is too rigorous, I may try protein sparing fast on alternate days. I'm trying
to get my power/weight ratio has high as I can before water season begins (April 2022)


Tracking below.

X = Eating Day
O = Fasting Day
F = Failed to meet practice objective
