Waaaay under...

So my calories are super low today... I tried to make myself eat more to bump up my calories but I just couldn't do it I was just so full. I am deathly afraid of not eating enough and making my body go into starvation mode and actually storing the calories instead of burning them.

By the time I ate dinner and was calculating in my head the calories..I kept thinking to myself that there had to be something off and I must have been forgetting something that I ate. But I couldn't think of anything I left out. I just wasn't that hungry today I guess. So because I only ate such a little amount of calories today, I only did a half hour of exercise on the treadmill.

On a yummier note...I tried out the tastiest little chocolate popcorn cakes. They are from Orville Redenbacher and they are sooooo yummy. For anyone who likes crunchy and likes chocolate these are perfect. They kind of taste like Cocoa Puffs... Mmmm. Anyways I bought a big bag for like $1.69 or $1.99 I forget exactly, but I wish I would have bought more.


Food Journal for today:

Breakfast- One English Muffin, with Laughing Cow cheese spread over it, 3 eggs one whole two whites = 245 calories
Lunch- The Almighty Protein Shake (chocolate) = 300 calories
Dinner- A steak sammy made from thin skirt steak, a whole wheat roll, 2 tbls of sour cream, some caramelized onions, spinach, and tomato (tasted better than it looks in the picture lol) =490 calories
Snack: a cup of strawberry applesauce..and ten chocolate popcorn cakes = 112 calories

Total amount of calories for today = 1147..... pretty low =-/
