I kept very close track of what I ate today. Ate pretty normally, although Im out of my favorite snack- dried pineapple. I need to pick some more up. Its fat free but high in sugar unfortunatly. 

For breakfast I ate my normal honey nut cheerios, banana, milk and coffee. Fitday.com came up with that meal totaling 453 calories and 3 grams of fat (~6% cals from fat)

Around 10am I sat down with my youngest and we had a snack of raw broccoli florets and fat free ranch dressing.  Again I used fitday.com to calculate my calories for that- 88 calories and 0g of fat for our snack. That was a LOT of food for under 100 calories! This is usually when I eat my pineapple and skim milk. Im going to have to substitute veggies mroe often!

Aaround 12:30 I finally had a moment to eat. We had been invited to taco bell by some friends but even with their Fresco style ‘menu’ I just didnt feel comfortable eating there. I LOVE taco bell, but it loves my hips. So my boys ate and I sipped on some diet pepsi. I was busy cleaning the kitchen so I didnt want to be constantly washing my hands so I could take a bite of food. I mixed up a ‘protien shake’ ah this is from my low carb days. This stuff lasts forever it seems! I had a banana, 1.5c of milk and 2/3s of a cup of the chocolate shake mix.  I had to enter the mix manually but fit day came up with that meal totalling 533 calories and 7 grams of fat (~12% calories from fat)

Around 3pm my stomach was growling and I wasnt ready to start dinner yet so I had a snack of one slice of bread and a 1tbs of saskatoon berry jam. Total calories 125, total fat 1g (~7% calories from fat)

A little after 5 my husband and I sat down to a quiet meal since our kids were still asleep, it was a bit early to eat but we took the opportunity to enjoy a meal without the boys.

I grilled chicken, warmed up already cooked brown rice from the freezer, grilled some carrots and boiled up some frozen corn. It was a very yummy meal! I didnt finish everything on my plate. I stuck it in the fridge- Im fairly sure Ill be hungry after my run tonight. Total calories for dinner was 533 and total fat was 4grams (~7% calories from fat)

so my total for the day (after I finish my dinner tonight):

1733 (oops! ouch) calories and 15g of fat. Approximately 8% of my calories were from fat today.
