Planning my meals
I thought I was on top of my macros but low and behold I was wrong. Today I was short 31.6 grams of fat. There was no way to get my fat up without increasing my protein. Friday was spot on so I copied that meal for Sunday. I am to determined to lose the weight and continue feeling as good as I have the last few days.

I make a homemade salad dressing with equal parts Mayo, ACV, MCT oil, and seasonings. Actually, I use double the acv, but I like a very tart dressing. . It's zero carbs and protein, and plenty of fat. I keep baby spinach in the house at all times, and when I need a boost to my fat that doesn't come from a fat bomb, I will make myself a spinach salad with lots of dressing. If I've got the carbs to spare I'll throw some avocado on there which will also boost the fat.

Are you brand loyal for MCT oil? There are about a million for sale on Amazon :)? I was having a blast getting my numbers together today for lunch so much so I forgot the zucchini. 4 oz of cheesecake is in my sight today :).

Not at all. I've only bought it twice. The first time I got a 16oz bottle for $24 at Sprouts, after doing a lot of label reading and talking to the vitamins employee. Just as I was getting low, Costco started stocking two very comparable brands. Both were the same price, two 16oz bottles for $22. In doing a side-by-side comparison they appear to be identical in every respect, except one of them promises to give a dollar to green initiatives. So that's the one I bought.

make a small side 'spring mix' salad and add 1 tbsp of extra virgin oil = 14g of fat :)
