13:50 Should I count calories for my 20/4? I usually count 1700 daily calories for my 18./6 by at 20/4 I only have 1200 calories Should I reach 1700 calories even if I do a 20/4?
15:43 On the average week, how does your meal plans go? By that I mean, do you eat the same meals weekly over and over, or do your meals vary? Some households eat basically the same meals weekly, without much difference. Do you have a larger variety of meals and don’t repeat as often? Just wondering because if your meals are basically the same weekly, you would tend to know about the amount of calories they are therefore,making meal planning simpler, and calorie intake easier to determine.

55:25 can we change term from “cheat day” to “splurge day”…cheat has negative connotation…like we are doing something we shouldn’t be doing.
