I need this challenge too....I have gotten sloppy....or actually more "know it all" I think I have a clear handle on things, but in actuallity I don't! Often my problem is not enough calories. Last week I ate a ton of cheese and milk based foods and lost 3 pounds! Shows me that I have to keep my calories up--just like I preach to everyone else.

Monday
B--Coffee and soy milk 30 cals
L--raw veggies, turkey lunch meat, 1.5 tsp real mayo (I will forego the bread to have the mayo!) 140 cals
D-- home made burger, grilled onions, roasted potato, 2 deviled eggs 685 cals
S--1 spoon of no sugar added PB and 1/4 cup M&M's 236 cals
(I shall edit/update as the day progresses

Tuesday
B laugh cow, coffee and soy milk 65 cals
L cereal and milk, apple 265
D half turkey sub no mayo 350
S grapefruit broiled with honey 135

Wednesday
B cereal and milk, 170
L raw veggies, lunch meat, mayo and mustard 140
D half turkey sub no mayo 350
S half cup ice cream, banana 320

7 Day calorie counts (goal is 1500-1800 daily)
M 1091
T 815 cals
W 980 cals....This is where I get in trouble! Why do I do this? Its like feast of famine, and the famine does more damage than the feast for me!

Just a challenge to log and be honest with yourself. If I don't publicly log like this, apparently I pretend the calories don't exist....lol And since I put here for the world to see, it helps me make better decisions.

Breakfast: 1 light-skinny cow wedge: 35 calories
1 serving fiber select wheat thins: 120 calories (TOTAL 155 calories)
Lunch: Lean cuisine chicken chow mein: 260 calories
Mini bag popcorn: 100 calories
Orange: 86 (TOTAL 446 calories)
Dinner: 1 whole wheat footlong turkey sub with american cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, olives, mustard, and light mayo. (TOTAL 752 calories)

Now normally my dinners aren't so high cal but M/W I have lab class for over 4 hours (7 weeks left thank goodness) and I NEED something high calorie or I end up starving afterwards
