A better day
A MUCH better day today than days past. First, my overall caloric intake was bumped up to 2250, and second, my protein intake was increased by 10%. On average, my ratio of protein to carbs for the week before today was 20%:47%. Today my ratio was 30% protein to 40% carbs.
I'm going to continue to keep my eye on this and make small adjustments and see what happens.
I squeezed in a workout during my lunchtime today, that way I didn't have to deal with it this evening at home since it is valentine's day.
Now, to keep an eye on my diet for the next couple of days until my next workout on Sunday. Sunday will be my weigh in too.

Protein
Hey there,
I am also trying to get in more protein--just before I started my weight lifting program I kept a food diary for a couple of days and found out I was getting less than 15%. Now I'm going for the 30/40/30 ratio. Not at each meal, but on average throughout the day. Still--not as easy as it sounds, is it?
