When you're tracking calories, it's super hard to hit right on target. So I always aim for about 5-50 under and know I did alright (still can't bring myself to see that - in MFP).
I started doing IIFYM about 3 years ago after Owen was born and it was hard for me. I just never felt like I was hitting my macros close enough! Cause if calories weren't enough to worry about; protein, fat and carbs rounded out my diary anxiety.
And then a funny thing happened today, MANY days after falling off the IIFYM wagon: I did it.
And I had milk, and cheese at lunch, a butter fill with breakfast and dinner dessert, but I also had grilled chicken and eggs and turkey. And it balanced. Within 3 on the macros and 20 on the calories is a WIN!!
In other news we made the kids watch Honey, I Shrunk the Kids and it was glorious.
