It's been a good week so far. I'm testing something out, trying 1 serving of sweet potato an hour before working out. It's about 20g carbs.. Today was my first day trying it and I noticed a difference in my performance. I usually lose strength really rapidly after my first set, but today it wasn't so noticeable. I read that eating a slow-burning, low-gi carb such as a sweet potato before the gym helps provide more energy during the workout.. and eating a higher-GI carb, such as a banana, afterwards helps recover faster so you don't feel so sluggish after a workout. I'm currently limiting my carb intake to 80g on a workout day, 50g on a non-workout day.. it seems to be working so far and I don't feel limited in my meal planning.

I am going to hop on this thread, and hopefully gain some accountability! I am trying to lose weight for a wedding in late spring.

I am trying to keep calories intake under 2000, I have the chance to spend about an hour in the gym everyday.

Let's do this thing.
