haha okey good Thatīs a good idea instead of trying to memorize everything. Last night I actually couldnīt fall asleep as I was so hungry, I felt dizzy and light-headed even though I ate 1300 calories in the day. I had worked out really really hard (went to a marathon 2 hour spin class), so I had some cheerios and managed to fall asleep at 5 in the night
Definitely will be upping my calories on the days where I go to marathon spinning (mondays and wednesdays).
I count my calories from midnight till midnight as I sometimes work in the night, so the cheerios at 3 last night are coming in todayīs calories

So today I have eaten:

the dry cheerios in the night when I couldnīt fall asleep: 150 cal
B: yoghurt and cheerios (surprise surprise): 250 cal
L: buckwheat noodles with vegetables, egg and chicken breast (went out for lunch): 550 cal
d: yoghurt with all-bran: 270 cal
snacks: small cereal bar, 20 gr. dark organic chocolate: 220 cal
all in all: 1440 cal.
exercise:1 normal spin class

I am really addicted to spinning! Itīs the only exercise that I like!

I'm really not trying to eat at 1200 calories, it has just worked out that way the last two days. I'm sure I'll have no problem making up the deficit through the rest of the week

Bobbi hasn't posted since 2/19. She's usually here on weekdays, and so I'm a little concerned. I hope everything is ok.

fat-free yoghurt with all-bran: 300 cal
1 granola bar without added sugar: 130 cal
small home-made quesadilla with low-fat feta and salsa, plus 2 small soy hot-dogs: 420 cal

I hope that she's just busy, too. I was really hoping we'd see her here before day's end today, and I'm worried given that she hasn't posted yet. I hope we'll see her tomorrow, and that everything is ok.

Yes, I drank my calories today. 5 glasses of wine over the course of six hours. I expect tomorrow and Friday will involve similar alcohol consumption. This is what happens when I go to conferences and see colleagues and we order drink after drink after drink. I will be trying to eat healthy otherwise... and will be back to normal on Saturday.

Thursday 2/24
For some reason I've been gravitating towards breakfast foods for my dinner and lunch. I spoke with my nutritionist and she said it's okay, but not everyday. So today is my breakfast day!

I asked how the veggies were prepared before ordering my dinner, and was told that only olive oil was used. But, I'm sure there was butter on something on that plate (I'm betting the spinach), as it did a number on my stomach - and olive oil doesn't do that to me, just dairy fat. Grrrrrr.
