942 calories consumed
- 100 calories burned (walking in mall)

NET: 842 calories intake

Problems: My caloric intake is WAY too low! I need to be at the 1000-1300 mark. Maybe I can fill that void with an additional glass of milk before I sleep, maybe even warm it up and add badaam/pista! :)

Breakfast

This morning I had to wake up and make kulfi for my dad aaand while mixing up the ingredients, i definitely had to do a taste test. I'm just going to over estimate the calories for the taste test so somewhere between 50 and 100.

Then I had a bite of pizza :( so, anywhere from 25-50 additional calories

Breakfast is

1/2 cup of 2% milk - 60 cals
3/4 cup of cascadian farm organic dark chocolate almond granola cereal - 210
a sprinkling of hazelnuts - 100
Mint and pomegranate tea brewed in water, no sugar - 0


So far today's total is 550

Trying to stay between 1300 to 1700 daily, since at the gym I burn off about 500.
