I’ve been awful at tracking lately, but yesterday was a pretty typical good day for me, as far as amount of food consumed. (Fortunately, which has been a lot lately!)
So before I went to bed, I just wrote down everything that I ate during the day so I could track it when I got to a computer at work today.
After doing this (for time sake) I just took the net calories, fat, & fiber intake and input it into the weight watchers calculator. It gave me 28 Points, which is right on for my (new!) daily point intake!
I know it’s not a totally accurate translation, but it’s way faster and accurate enough at this point.
This is an atypical breakfast, actually. I was on the road from N’s house back downtown so I could walk to the WW mtg. I usually eat something higher in protein or fiber, like bagel thins + peanut butter, eggs (or egg beater whites) scrambled with veggies, oatmeal, or something like that.
And I’m pretty good about not eating out, I haven’t had Tokyo Joe’s in forever (and it’s on the first floor of my building!). I’m glad to say I was completely comfortable in leaving a bunch of rice in my bowl (it was probably about 1/3 cup, which makes me wonder how much they put into start!)
PS: My fajita dinner was huge & filling & delicious!
