I just figured out my average calories for the past 51 days (June 9th-July 29th). I guess that’s how long I have been tracking my food on DailyPlate. So, the average calories I ate was 1676 calories. Not great. Not terrible. I would love to trend that down to about 1500 calories.
Yesterday (Tuesday) I had [...]

Have I given up on dieting all together and been too busy to write because I have had [...]
