So here’s my strategy for today.  I say today because eating right for me takes a lot of thought and planning.  It’s not easy.  I wanted to concentrate on tracking all my calories precisely by weighing my food and recording it right after I eat.  This way I won’t forget.   I also took a moment to plan how I’d be getting my calories in terms of macro nutrients (Fat, Carbohydrates and Protein).  I want my calories from protein to be higher than the calories I’m getting from carbs.  I’ve been super high on the carbohydrates (as proof check out my carby food lists from days 1-6 or look at my scale).
