I didn't eat more berries!

BIKE indoors 31 minutes 

No goal, so I got bored. We went to bed kinda late, so I slept in, and decided to stay home instead of going to the gym. And it's cold outside! I was supposed to be reading my strength training modules for Coach Patrick, I'm behind on that. It's only a 20-30 min workout, but I've yet to even crack it open.

Yesterday was the first day of the new way of eating. Let's not call it a diet. I came home from my run and ate 6 egg whites and 2 yolks and some fat (avocado?), and a small bowl of mixed berries. Lunch was chicken with sriracha mayo and cali veggies. Dinner was salmon, chicken, chicken, munch, and 1 measured cup of blueberries.

Normally, there would have been fruit for lunch and more more fruit with dinner. How did it feel? I had a bit of famine-brain, that feeling of "I haven't eaten and I'll need to eat" and a vague hunger that had me wanting to (and doing so) eat lunch early. So I split lunch and ate it in two portions. 

I'm salting and I'm drinking, I don't feel carb flu? I'm also reducing my caffeine slowly, since yesterday I had to take a caffeine pill to keep thinking at work. 

Yesterday 30000 steps, today so far (2pm) only 1735!! Go walk!

I don't know how to calculate the 10-15% of calories from net carbs. So for now, until I think of a way or have to ask, I'm focusing on 50% fat and 35% protein and letting the rest of it be the net carbs.
