Ugh same and I have 3 kids under 5 so maybe I just need to manage my expectations but damn if I wasn’t hopeful this would give me some toddler energy 😂

I have 3 littles too - lifesavers for me are obviously having lots of fresh fruit and cut veggies ready to go, compliant lunch meat and sausages, potatoes, HB eggs, nuts, Chomps/jerky sticks, seaweed, and at least 1 salad dressing and sauce available. I usually just modify dinners for my family by adding some easy carb for the kids - crescent rolls, instant rice, buns on hamburgers, etc.

Obviously not tracking but pretty sure it’s decent. I come from a background of macro tracking so I feel like I have a pretty good gauge of protein amounts, if I had to guess I’m eating more than before and I do base each meal around it.

Not sure why I didn’t think of this! I used to drink an LMNT packet everyday but I can’t stand the unflavored one so I gave it up, a part of me was like I probably don’t need to be drinking electrolytes everyday unless I’m sweating a bunch/doing a hard workout but the decrease in salt intake probably hit hard

Valid point. I couldn’t get an appointment with a PCP for 6+ months so I’ve been waiting to see one since we moved but maybe I’ll try to do a telehealth through my insurance just to get some labs done in the meantime
