Food felt good this week. I didn't eat very bad in Vegas during my vacation.. but just wasn't actively training. It was the first week off of regular CrossFit training since I began and I could really feel the difference! I missed it.
Anyways, this week I stayed pretty clean and focused on looking at my total daily carb consumption. Since most of my meals are all veggies for carbs it isn't THAT hard to stay below 50g.
I gave myself a Free Meal/Cheat Meal/whatever the hell you wanna call it Saturday, but I had a goal of eating a healthy breakfast before my meal, then making sure I had a healthy dinner right after.
For me, its about balance. I do not do well without a free meal once a week... when i was most focused on training in my life I had 1 free night every 2 weeks. At the same time, if I am not focused during that free time, a free meal can easily turn into a free day or worse yet.. a free weekend.
I was happy I was able to get back on track after I had that meal, it left me with a better feeling going into this next week.
I will weigh in again on Friday to update my progress. Hoping to see a loss considering my lazy vacation.

Lots of accountability!
