coffee with powdered creamer and real sugar - 100
w/ homemade biscotti - 100
had to have the biscotti... it came from my employees. even though i really don't even like it that much. useless calories, but very sweet of them.
I remember when i used to model (yeah, yeah, i did that back when i was like 14 or something... long story) this instructor-slash-working-older-20-something-model told me that i should never eat bread. bread = evil. and while i'm at it, i shouldn't eat white rice or pasta, or really any carbs but veggies and fruits (she even poo-pooed most fruits - peaches and tomatoes were ok). i didn't even really know what carbs were at the time, but shortly after, the atkins diet hit full force and boy, we all knew what nasty little devils carbs were then.
today i was reading an article on yahoo that said to eat "butter instead of jam on toast; bacon instead of potatoes." wow. i had thought that whole trend was over, but apparently the "eat fat, any fat, as long as you avoid carbs" mantra is still alive and well.
weird side note, when i think of the physical item BUTTER, my brain immediately goes, MANTEQUILLA! weird...
1 whole 20 oz bottle of water already! - 0
random "vitamins," grape seed extract, fish oil, Paragone cleansing system
pasta with veggie and turkey sauce - 500?
left over from the other day, wish i actually knew how many calories were in it. i need to see if we can get any spaghetti squash this time of year. at least then the carbs aren't pasta carbs... i'll try to remember to talk to Nick about it.
2nd 20 oz bottle of water today - 0
can water (cold water) make your throat flemmy? the more water i drink, the more clogged up my throat gets. is that normal? i mean, i'm sure it's not normal, but do other people have this problem? what causes it? what can fix it? i wish i could go back to my no-water-drinking, always-dehydrated ways. it just seems like the more water i drink, the more i need. ick.
more damn biscotti - 100?
another 20 oz bottle. wow. floating away... - 0
1 can diet dr pepper - 0

would've eaten more, but this was all that was left over
