Good Job! I have found it motivating to record like you did...everything and adding the carbs up as I go. Congrats!

:wave Hey Erin welcome back

now to refresh your memeory we do not eat our carbs all at one meal as we do not want to spike our insulin then so please spread those veggies out to all meals so youhave some carb some protein and some fat every time you eat.

Happy low carbing.
