Update on menu request.

Yesterday I blogged my day's eating, and a commenter mentioned tracking on SparkPeople, which I used to do regularly and really haven't since I got pregnant last year.  

I already did half the work, though, in making the list, so I went to SparkPeople and typed everything in.  I made generous estimates of the food I ate, where I didn't measure it.

It came out this way:

Breakfast (veggie omelette, coffee):  200 calories: 12 g fat, 10 g carb, 13 g protein

Snack + Lunch at McDonald's:  515 calories: 21 g fat, 57 g carb, 28 g protein

Dinner  + dessert (chicken, corn, salad, asparagus, ice cream, chocolate):  1,003 calories, 81 g fat, 53 g carb, 32 g protein

____________________

Total: 1,719 calories, 148 g carb, 87 g fat, 73 g protein

____________________

My rough fat-carb-protein  goal is 50-25-25– this was 47-36-17.

  1. Hey so I commented a few weeks ago that I was waiting for that sort of “click” to go off in my head to start watching what I eat… anyway, I signed up for SparkPeople a couple weeks ago and I’ve been using it to keep to a lower calorie diet — I love it! Somehow seeing everything out there in black and white really helps!
