Didn’t make my goal for this round. Received some bad news halfway though the month and just lost motivation. Time to reset and make this happen!

I have been asked to explain what a potato reset is. There are many ways to go about it but at its core, you are lowering the calorie density of your meals by having potatoes as your starch and bulking out the rest with nonstarchy vegetables. It helps to quiet down your cravings without going hungry and settle your taste buds to be ok with less 'exciting' (junk) foods. It's sometimes called "Mary's Mini" and is part of Dr McDougall's Starch Solution plan. Lots of YouTube videos from him and Broccoli Mum if you want more info.

Trying to make small changes. Switching from pop to trying to do more water. Issue is I don’t like plain water. Wife has me off the fake sugar powdered drink mixes and onto Liquid IV. Any other alternatives that are an “improvement”?

I did not crush day 1. Counting baby steps, I did get in more water than I have in a very long time.

First diet bet in seven years, hoping the community is motivating and this helps me cultivate new good habits!
