Writing it Down

So, I wrote down what I ate today and the calories. I understand why it works. By lunch, I really only had 300 calories left for dinner to stick in my 1200 calories range. Yikes.

Needles to say, I didn't make my goal. Total for today:  1,705.

Are you freakin' kidding me? Well, that is showing me where my problem is. I am at least 500 calories a day off of where I should be. I think the only reason that I am not gaining weight is because I am breastfeeding.

The only way I want to be in this calorie range again is if all 500 extra calories come from fruit and veggies! I hope I have learned my lesson... but it looks like journaling might pay off. Now, I am off to exersize... I need to make up for the ridiculous amount of calories I ate today.
