Took the kids to Friendly's and discovered they have a menu with 550 calorie meals. I'm assuming they are less than 100% accurate, but hope that I can call it 600 for the meal. That puts my day at 1240, even with all of the "stress eating." Out may be my worst day of the week, but still not terrible.

My project at work hit a high stress point today and some "off plan" food for eaten. Worse, I didn't track it very well. A handful of peanut m&ms and a bunch of pretzels. I'm guessing about 400 calories. So with my breakfast and lunch (both standard) I go into the evening at 690. Sure that sounds small, but it is almost double where I've b een the ( Read more... )

Big breakfast, relatively correspond. Bagel and cream cheese, figuring that is about 500

Breakfast and lunch were the usual, bringing that count to 290. Dinner was some yummy spaghetti for an estimated 700 calories, making me squeak under a thousand calories for the day ( Read more... )

All I can say is.. "my word!"

Treated myself to three, count 'em THREE small pretzel rods. At 15 a piece, that's 45 calories.

Also had a big dinner - 2 tacos and a alive of pizza. Calling it 700 for the meal. That brings the day to a total of 1035. Over a thousand but still not too bad.

Wrapping up yesterday, I had tacos for dinner, estimated at about 600, bringing the days total to 890.

Breakfast today was the usual, at 120.

Breakfast and lunch now fall into the category "the usual"... Egg and toast for 120 and a chicken patty for 170.

Lunch was a chicken patty again (that will be the usual for a while) and dinner was some leftover pot roast.

170 for the patty, I figure about 500 for the roast, and 120 for breakfast, that's about 790, oh plus the m&ms, that is still way less than 1000 for the day.

Slice of bread, 40
Scrambled egg, 80
