I'll hang in here until the 9th in case anyone else wants to join in after the new year. If not, I'll go back to my private tracking.
Everyone has something different that works for them. Being aware and keeping track of the nutritional value and quantity of what I'm eating seems to be what works best for me.
Lets all be headed in a healthy direction going into the New Year!

Today is a planned indulgence day ;-) I fully expect it to be high and I plan to enjoy every bite and sip!
Happy New Year all!
As expected ... ;-)

One part of this was NOT good. It was a planned indulgence day so I'm fine with that. But a part of this was not eating mindfully. It was eating random things because they were there. For my purposes, it's OK to be indulgent once and a while. The mindless grazing is still a bit of an issue for me.
Reminding myself to think then eat. NOT eat then regret.

I did eat mindfully. Maybe even too much so. And I got a couple BIG reminders.
Because plans changed on new years day, we made a nice new years dinner last night. Also hubby experimented with making bread. I am reminded that white food is NOT my friend. Yesterday was 3 slices of bread and a 3 oz. serving of rum cake. The two things combined were 85 net carbs and 580 calories. Even though they were kind of planned, I could have skipped them and ended up very close to my goal eating for the day.
