     Overall, pleased with the work that got done. I'm also pleased because the scale actually showed a 5lb decrease this morning. That friggin thing hasn't moved in a year. It's a small movement, but I'll take it. Logging our food is still a chore but at this point, it's needed. I'm doing OK as far as nutrition. I'm consistently over on fat and it's driving me crazy. I'm not getting enough calories or protein and my carbs are usually low. I need to get better at hitting the protein and calories without over shooting the fat. Right now, I figure it's OK to have the fat a little high if the carbs are low. 
     I dunno. My brain is pretty fried from all the tracking and numbers. Every macro calculator I use gives me different amounts, which is frustrating. I've tried to just take an average of all of them and hope that it works. I suppose it is. Right now is tea time and relax my brain time.
