Completed today's food diary

And came in around 800 calories under my My Daily Goal according to myfitnesspal.com. Looking over everything I had to eat and drink today, I had a lot of the same types of things I normally do, just a little less or the recommended serving size. Take lunch for example, I used 1 tablespoon of mayo that covered 1 slice of bread where I would normally use double that for both slices. Same goes for the American "cheese" slice; I had 1 slice instead of two. Doing little things like that will add up as I found out from today's food diary.

I haven't run since Friday. I slept in this morning and got up around 6:15 and had to be at work by 7:30. I didn't go after work as I had a boy's night with my son while my wife met a friend for dinner. I need to get back on track literally and figuratively as I've got a good thing going. Getting on the scale this morning and weighing in at 327 is an especially good motivator to keep running and eating better. I should stop weighing myself everyday or else I'll become obsessed with it and maybe discouraged because a person's weight can fluctuate a bit.
