Food Diary, Day 1

Well, it looks like all of my followers have dropped off, except for my sweetie (hi, John!), and maybe a friend who gets email updates.  I am okay with that.

I want to try documenting what I eat by keeping a food diary.  I am terrible about keeping commitments, but still... I will try, for one week, to write down everything that I consume that contains calories.  I think it would be good to track weight, water intake, and exercise, as well, but that sounds a bit overwhelming right now.

So.

Wednesday, July 18th
Breakfast - 2 cups of coffee with 2 creamer singles, 1/2 cup coffee with a bit of honey and almond milk (ran out of creamer), one fried egg with a bit of olive oil, two pieces of 7-grain toast, 1 tsp. strawberry preserves, and 2 tsp. of my husband's habanero tomatillo salsa

Lunch - 1/2 slice turkey, 3 1" sausage pieces, 1/3 cup cole slaw, 1/3 cup potato salad, 1 tbsp. BBQ sauce, and 2/3 cups green grapes

Dinner - 2 slices sausage & onion and 1 slice chicken & spinach pizza with no cheese, medium salad with vinaigrette dressing, and a brownie (1/16th of a full pan)

Snack(s) - 1/4 cup edamame with sea salt

Water Intake - 8 cups!  MET MY DAILY GOAL... woohoo!
Did I exercise today? - YES!
