When you actually have to write down everything that you put into your mouth throughout the day (get your mind out of the gutter!), it really makes you start to think before having that little snack.
Keeping track of the nutritional aspect of those things that do end up in the tum tum makes me really cringe.
I am going to try to keep up a daily food diary on this blog to help keep track of what I'm eating and where I need to cut. So for today:
Breakfast:
Cup of coffee (? Nutritional info)
1 tbsp peppermint creamer: 35 calories, 1.5 g fat, 6 carbs
1 tbsp sugar (? Nutritional info)
2 pieces of bacon: 90 calories, 7 g fat, 0 carbs
1 banana (? Nutritional info)
Water
Lunch:
2 corndogs: 440 calories, 24 g fat, 44 carbs (yikes! Won't be eating this again!)
1 ketchup packet (? Nutritional info)
fruit gel cup: 70 calories, 0 fat, 17 carbs
Water
As I mentioned in my first post about my health disclaimer, not eating enough gives me severe shakes and makes me feel like crap and makes me really crabby.
When I got home from work after eating the above, I was shaking like mad and crabbier than ever. I knew I needed a sugar boost. So, I had:
1 piece of bread: 70 calories, 1 g fat, 14 carbs
1 tbsp peach jelly: 50 calories, 0 fat, 11 carbs
Dinner:
1 bun: 120 calories, 1.5 g fat, 23 carbs
manwich (estimated): 40 calories, 0 fat, 9 carbs
tots: 150 calories, 7 g fat, 20 carbs
That's as far as I've gotten today. I'll update later after my night time snack. So far, I think it's looking like I need to cut carbs. Wow. I had no idea I was eating so poorly.

Well, if I had known you were having manwich I would have come over.
