So, I guess it can be annoying to some - but I log everything I eat. By log, I mean I enter it in and track my calories. It is what keeps me on track. I am competitive by nature, so I try to make sure I stay below my daily calorie goal of 1500 calories a day. Surprisingly, it is pretty easy to eat that much and stay full. Also, you realize that before logging the food you would eat is crazy. I think back to getting a large Dr. Pepper with a meal. That would equal a whooping 1,000 calories. There are days (not many) when I don't eat that many calories a day, much less have a drink containing that many. Or the fact that my favorite burrito at Taco Bell is about 846 calories. Pair that with the taco that would come along at 142 calories. So in one meal I would be eating over 2,000 calories. Today, that just blows my mind. I'm sure there will be days where I blow my calorie goal - but it seems crazy to eat like that. It isn't really even that yummy. I think my meals are much better tasting and allow me to eat more throughout the day and pretty much always be content.
Now Playing: nothing - just the sound of my fan :)
Dinner: I had a salad and chicken breast w/ Carribean Jerk marinade
