So I had a pretty big breakfast this morning (843 calories D=!) and have been feeling it ominously loom over me as I have gone through my day. I didn't eat lunch even because I was still so full.

So I went to dinner and there was this really really yummy looking barbeque tempeh burger at the University cafeteria that I couldn't not take (SERIOUSLY delicious looking. Like teppanyaki-delicious looking) and then there were the regular tempeh burgers and they also looked really good, so I took one of those aswell.

I had some cucumber slices and carrots and then a whole ton (like 2 and a half cups worth) of watermelon. But I was still not feeling full and decided to take some coffee with a bit of milk to go.

I got back to my dorm and started logging calories. Does anyone else feel like if they feel really full it MUST mean that they have eaten too many calories? Well that is how I was feeling. They don't have tempeh burgers on the CC database so I looked it up elsewhere and was happily surprised to see that they are only 120 calories (yay meatless products!!). But then there was the barbeque sauce and the watermelon and the coffee with milk! So I finished logging it in and as I scrolled down I was saying to myself "don't freak out. It cannot possibly be that bad" and then I got to the bottom and my jaw dropped. "5,000 calories?!?! Oh my god! Oh my god!"

Apparently I logged the 1/2 cup of milk in reaaallly wrongly. Hahahahaha! But I was so surprised I literally exclaimed at the computer. It ended up being only like 1,400 calories. >XD

Oh... fun with CC. <3

LMAO.  that was scary.  Thank heavens it was just a mistake.

Hahaha, phew! Sometimes I'll accidentally log something twice and have a WTF moment as well.

That's happened to me plenty of times using the recipe analyzer.  Sometimes I'll accidentaly hit "c" (cups) instead of "g" (grams).  60 cups of anything has a lot of calories Tongue out

Definitely been there, done that!

Thank goodness, none were quite to that large of an extent.  I'm glad you ended up with a reasonable number!

hahaha... I do that a lot... Keeps me on my toes.
