120wg's Journal, 19 Jan 16

long weekend FAIL :(

i just realized i was WAY over my carb counts all weekend, no wonder i stopped dropping weight. *sigh* At least i didn't seem to gain much.
News to me -- hoisin sauce is EVIL. i had no idea it had so many carbs until i looked it up when i went to enter it (i had something called a "hog wing" on sunday at a restaurant -a teeny pork shank coated with hoisin sauce that was delicious, but i wouldn't have had it if i had known that hoisin is basically sugar). I also made Yotam Ottloenghi's famed "cauliflower cake" that took over the web foodie blogs, thinking that since it was mostly cauliflower, eggs, almond flour, and cheese it would be safe -but it apparently is also oddly high carb (according to a nice person who entered it on MFP -which is weird, where do the carbs come from, given the ingredients?). It was sooo pretty and sooo yummy, but surprisingly carby. Lesson learned - look up foods BEFORE cooking them/greedily shoving them in my mouth :)
This week - i will be much more careful and will try to stick to <35 net carbs/day.

On the bright side, you logged everything and figured out your problem right away, and addressed it.! :) That cauliflower cake sounds yummy and healthy, since you are aiming for very low carb, perhaps save it for pre/post workouts when there is more leeway to eat carbs?
