Four straight days with weight gains. Small gains, to be sure, but gains nonetheless. I've been a little high on carbs and a little too low on fat for my LGLCHF program. Also, my kCal deficit was reading at around 500, which, I've learned is too small given that my calorie in/out counting is off by anywhere from 300 to 500 kCal.

I have my deficits back to October of last year, and they add up to almost 16 pounds of fat! Since that time, though, I've lost less than 5 pounds. So, something is wrong in my calculation of the deficit - I'm aware of it, so I adjust for it in my daily planning. However, it becomes problematic when I'm trying to maximize fat loss and minimize muscle loss - the calculations depend on accuracy in the CICO numbers. To correct them, however, step one is to buy a food scale, and actually use it! I'm not there yet. I don't want to be weighing my food precisely, carefully reading every food label to identify exactly what's in my food. I'm okay with a little uncertainty, because I'm doing okay so far - not great, but definitely okay. So, I just try to get as close as I can, and I watch what happens, and I have to deal with the erratic results.

The other thing going on is my hunger. A few days back, I complained about not feeling hungry, not being able to get enough macros because I was filling up. That's no longer a problem. I'm definitely hungry the past few days. LOL. Careful what you wish for, I guess? Not that I wished to be hungry, I just noted that I wasn't, and thus, eating was becoming a chore, which isn't all bad, especially if you want to lose.

Anyway, my goal for today is to be active - which should be no problem - focus on my macros, and lay off the carb snacks. My target deficit is around 1000 kCal, with a max of 1200. That's a safe, fat-only loss, with a nice margin for error.
