Daily Total: 1975 calories, give or take, but certainly less than 2500!! That's a win in my book.

My original salad included almonds and a honey-lime vinaigrette dressing. With everything else the same that came in at a whopping 778 calories. By substituting tomatoes for almonds and going to a balsamic dressing, I saved 321 calories. I added in the Kashi bar since it helps with my "daily list" (nuts and whole grains) and still came out ahead by 181 calories!

Originally I made the stir fry with tofu (my first time) and after about 6 pcs I gave up. Texture was all wrong for me. I probably cooked it wrong but chicken, shrimp or even plain veggies would be better than the draining hassle coupled with learning the cooking technique. ICK!

I'm glad I'm not doing this every day, but occasionally will help me understand where I can cut and where I can eat more.

At this point in the day I'm still full and not really hungry for anything. Time to make tomorrow's smoothie!
