20 days on track. A record!

I am pretty sure that this is a record for me - 20 days!
I have had a few days where I have been over my calorie limit, but on average I am making the grade each week. I was really pleased I had a sneek peek yesterday at the scales, and I hope that on Friday they will be kind at last.

I guess the way I am tracking my progress might be very boring/annoying/anal for most, but I am actually enjoying it. The "Today I ate:..." thing is getting a bit pants, but I think its a good idea of the food I ate for a whole month and that's quite a good achievement. I can always go back and copy it if I need to shift some lard in the future. Good for reference if you know what I mean.

It's getting annoying only because I am tracking my foods twice. I do it once on Livestrong and then I put it down again on here. I wish I was able to cut and paste, but it doesn't work like that sadly.

This is what I get for yesterday if I copy and paste:

Which is pretty bloody useless.
I guess I could edit it a bit... I might give it a go. Trouble is it doesn't split it into meals, but I guess if I am doing it day on day, I can remember to wort that out.
 
anyway, off to work now. had my lunch:
 

A yummy 2 egg cheese omlette with big salad and mayonnaise. that will keep me full until I get in and help myself to some lentil curry I have prepared in advance. Mmmm.
