First Week of Tracking
For the first 3-4 days, you will track and eat as you normally do, but you will start to weigh your food, track it, and be aware of what/how much you are eating. I will give you the report day when you submit that first week. It will be Tuesday or Friday before 8 a.m. CST.
When you email me back after your 3-4 days of initial tracking, please be sure to give me your specific nutritional goals. The more detail you give me, the better it is. I want to know what you want, not what I want.
You should check in before 8 a.m. on that day for me to have enough time to go over it, analyze your data, and make adjustments for you.
Download the Excel Tracking Sheet to use, but do not adjust the formulas.
Do not change your diet yet; eat as you normally do. I need an accurate portrayal of your diet and weight trends for the week.
Download MacroFactor from your phone’s app store and enter the code KCN for two free weeks. This is the BEST app I have ever used for tracking, and I have tried them all.
Measure in grams as they are far more accurate than ounces. It doesn’t matter if you measure cooked meat or raw; just keep it consistent for accuracy. I PREFER measuring it cooked as it is easier, but be sure when you enter the food into your tracking app; you are being consistent.
Weigh yourself first thing every morning after using the bathroom. No clothes, no shoes, nothing.
Once those three days are up, email me at jay@teamashman.com with the Excel sheet and pics.
Each check-in should include
Completed tracking sheet
Three pictures (front, side, back) if you are comfortable sharing
QA answered which will be provided each week
