I am doing well limiting my sugar calories to 100 which means no carbs at all. I try not to overdo on the fat but without the carbs I need the protein and for snacks, nuts and cheese are the easiest. Not feeling particularly hungry except right before a planned meal I am ravenous so not skipping meals for me. Energy is lacking a bit, hoping that will change,
If you use the calculation they say 4 calories sugar per gram of carb I am having a bit more but I think it doesn’t count for the vegetables, the good carbs. Still haven’t added in exercise routine except for an occasional walk. Hoping to do that in a couple of weeks when maybe dropped more weight and have more energy. Will be back to my work routine soon so also be moving around more.
Keeping in the 1200 - 1300 calorie range is easier for me when sugar/carbs are cutout. Everyone once in a while have to have a bite of what someone at the table is eating but am limiting to very small. Planning to add some treats on occasion after 4 weeks or maybe wait till I reach goal weight.
