Friday
1200 calories by lunch time. Not a good start to the weekend.
We went to Costco and I had 1 1/2 churros. That is, I am guessing, like, 400 calories???
Then dinner was Chicken herb tortellini with broccoli and parmesan. I am guessing at least 600 calories because I made a cream sauce for it too.
That brings me to a Daily total of 2200.
*Hey, at least I'm honest...
