Why it can be so hard to get back on track
Although I try to use my fitday as just observation and not as a means for judgment and condemnation, I have to say that tracking does help me keep my eyes opened. So far, today has been a nice low-fat day--but I have taken in very little nutrition for 1500+ calories. Almost everything in my RDA's is below 50%, which is shocking. Also, I ate a ton of angel food cake because I'm stressed. It has no fat, but I ate over 400 calories of it! Not a good plan, but it happened and I will not make the same choice in the future.
When I do something like eat a fourth of a cake, I just don't want to write it down here. But, why not? I did it and I did it purposefully (not the eating 400 calories part since I didn't know that at the time, but the eating way more cake of any kind than any one needs in a day). That's who I am, and where I'm at today. I'm also going to have a milkshake later on this evening after I study, and I'll dutifully come here and log it in. Maybe I'll meet my calcium goal!

Way to find the silver lining! That's one thing that stinks about the WW point tracker thing - it doens't track RDA like fitday does. Hope the studying goes well...
