  • Today was my first day tracking my calories and I noticed I eat a lot less when I am watching the numbers. Though I need to watch my drink intake, like I said in an earlier post I am not going to be perfect to begin with.


    1 Slice Honey Wheat bread [plain/toasted]           80
    4 oz. Orange Juice w/ Calcium                             55
    1 Canadian Style Bacon Deli Sandwich              255
    3 Cups Low Fat Chocolate Milk [over the day]     525
    1 Taco w/ Whole Wheat Tortilla [light cheese]     340
    1 Orange                                                               45
                                                  Total      1,300 Calories

    I read somewhere that oranges are negative calories, so I didn't list the calories in it because I honestly don't know the calories in an orange [edited after Annee found me a calorie site]. The lettuce and green peppers on my taco are also apparently negative calories. There was also a thing I read somewhere that the amount of calories you should consume are your [weight] x 7. I am not sure where they got the 7, but that is okay I believe it. That means I can only eat 1,316 calories a day.

    Well, see you tomorrow!

    Yay! Go Jobey. :) Actually, oranges do have calories. :( 86 for a big one. If I ever want to know calories in something I go here: http://www.calorieking.com/

    Oh oh -- by the way, you're doing much better than I am. I'm not COUNTING any calories right now. I am just tracking what I eat. And yes, I had another little episode last night. I had 3 GIGANTIC pieces of pizza for dinner.

    It was so good.

    ARG! And they brought fresh muffins into work and I was like, "hell yes, I'll have a muffin! Bring it, bitches!"

    ...

    BRING ON THE MUFFINS!!!

    No no. anneebgood for the rest of the day. ;)
