Days 17 & 18 - Posting everyday is hard :P

I've been sticking with the plan, but I'm having a hard time remembering to write down or otherwise record what I've been eating. I've been keeping a running total in my head, but if I can't back it up with actual items, I'm putting down the standard 1000 cal. So Thursday is a 1000 cal day. Yesterday:

Food:
Cream of Wheat 300
Soup 260
Salad w/dressing beans and noodles 250
Cookies 100
granola bar 100

Friday: 1010
Thursday: 1000
Total: 18271

Weight: 224.6

Days 13 & 14

So I didn't post yesterday like I had planned. For Saturday and Sunday I'm not entirely sure about my calories. I was over on Saturday, but not too bad. I'm estimating about 1500 cal. For Sunday, I stuck with the program and just had about 1000 calories. So:

Two day total: 2500
Total to date: 14391
Weight (Sunday Morning): 226
