What did YOU eat today?

Don't list the calories, don't list the exercise, don't list portion sizes.

None of those pesky numbers, since we all are different.

One person can need 1400 a day, while another can need 2,500, and it can be really triggering to see someone ate a lower number than yourself.

Therefore, just list the food you ate. This will help us understand the value of eating healthy food (for the nutrients), while also indulging moderately in empty calories when we want. I don't know about you, but I'm aiming for 90% healthy foods - and 10% empty calories. ;)

Also, do not post here if you are starving yourself. I'm not interested in the details, it is only going to get others riled up, and it is triggering to those of us trying to recover from an eating disorder. Okay, thank-you.

that's lots of carbs honey...just my opinion though.

I understand that along with counting calories I need to watch the intake of other things as well, but I'm still learning.  If there's something that you can recommend please do.   However, I would appreciate in a PM so I dont have to keep checking the board. 

Not a problem! I can offer up some suggestions :) (VIA PM)

Thanks!  :)

Just because some one eats alot of carbs doesnt meant there gonna gain weight...its the calories that count. but ofcourse you want to have a balance between fats, carbs, and protein to get proper nutrition but if u eat alot of carbs so what =] carbs gives us energy
