OMG! I haven't tracked my actual food consumption for a long time and I am shocked to see HOW MANY CARBS AND FAT I have eaten and it's only 2:30 p.m.!! I usually have lemon water first thing in the a.m. and about an hour later coffee with cream, then a couple hours later a protein drink. About four hours later, lunch.
Then I teach another class from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

If I am careful the rest of the day, I will be okay. It will be the time between 9 p.m. and going to bed that will be the test. I always want something when I get home around 9:30 p.m.

I can only take a little slice in knowing I am not looking at 'net carbs' since I don't see the fiber which is important to the equation.

I am trying to get hubs on board. He has Type 1 diabetes and it would be so beneficial to him to track his food but I haven't been able to get him to do it. I showed him this site and I hope he will try it. It takes a few minutes when you first start if you have to enter food info, but if you find food that is already entered it really speeds up the food diary chore--which is so important.

Wish me luck!

Hope you get your husband to come on board. I'm trying to get my wife to do the same thing.

Thanks ! I hope your wife will join in. I know a lot about health and nutrition, I got certified as a personal trainer but after a shoulder surgery stopped working out. I have worked out all my life until the last few years. Time to get back to it. I feel like such a nag telling hubs about his food choices, so I am trying to stop talking about it. ....hard...to...do....but like anything-mind over matter.
