I decided to start a brand new diary, and i will probably close my old thread (i haven't done that, but i think it makes it still available to read but not to post on?). I am learning alot of interesting things in my nutrition class and i want to start applying them to my own diet. So, i shall be posting at the end of the day once i've eaten everything for the day- that seems the most efficient way. I think it will also stop me from eating so much after supper For now i'm just planning on logging foods and not worrying so much about numbers. I think getting so worked up about numbers just causes alot of unnecessary stress.
