This is a thread for a one week Tracking Challenge!

I dislike tracking everything I eat, but I cannot deny the wake up call that I always get when a taste of this, a portion of that, the weight of something all get marked down.

So for this week, I'm tracking.

Personally, I'm just going to commit to listing every food I eat - I might weigh and measure some of them, but I also might not...

I'm also going to try to post planned food vs actual food, as this is an area I've struggled a bit with recently (not planning well - I don't actually care if I follow the plan closely, it's the act of planning that helps me!)

Please do join in, at your pace, in the way that suits you!

I forgot to track over the weekend, but still ate well.

Anytime someone needs a tracking partner to up their accountability, hit me up, it's always a good experience for me!
