1/22

Breakfast, Wildberry protein shake, bialy w/butter 286
Lunch, salad w/4 oz roasted chicken, veggies, low fat dressing & a banana, 410
Snack, 1/2 large Fiji apple, 80
Dinner, 4oz red wine, 2 cups celery sticks with lowfat dressing, SmartOnes Rigatoni w/vodka sauce (wouldn't get that one again, ugh) 486

1252 for day.
I'd set a goal for 1400 but have had a hard time getting there cuz have been eating so many veggies. Decided to have a goal range instead, as long as I'm between 1200-1400, I'll stop eating when full rather than adding stuff to up calories. This is only happening because I'm eating better than I used to, less starchy fatty stuff. But am also keeping those saved calories in mind for when I go out tomorrow night and over the weekend.

1/24 thursday
I'm not happy to say I didn'thave a great food day.... ate badly and didn't count. But... I am trying to not be too depressed and down about it beacuse I need to do better today. I am absolutely forcing myself to count every calorie today no mater what. Because one thing is for sure I feel really guilty for binging on junk , and I realise its just not worth it in the end to eat the stuff and then feel this bad. I truely think I learned my lesson. So in a way I am sorta "happy" this happened cuz it pushed me in the right dirrection.
