    Isn't blowing it at dinner evidence that you have not had enough calories during the day?
    Not necessarily. It can be a case of not realizing how calorie-dense your dinner is.

    Just saw the rice error. I guess she is not really over eating. THats what I thought she meant.

    i used this site: http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php, that is where i got the amounts... I only had 1 cup of cooked white rice ( i don't like brown either).... but it said 675 calories for that 1 cup of rice....but now that you mentioned the lower amount, i should of looked on the flippen box 1st! UGGG it showed 320 for 1 cup! huge difference! now where did this site get it's info from? now it makes me wonder if the rest of the home made recipes i have used have been completely correct with the nutritional facts it gives?
    If you use 1 cup of rice and 2 cups of water, that would be 3 cups... so shouldn't it be 225 per cup?

    Anyway, rice is an easy thing to cut out. You could eat half a cup and cut out even more calories. But the best thing is to figure out your recipes before you eat so you know how much to eat.

    actually it was minute rice i made and it was 2 cups of water and 2 cups of rice...... yes rice is easy to cut out but this meal is the only meal i eat rice with and i only make it once a month, so i am not going to cut it out... i will enjoy my favorite meal :)

    Once a month is not going to hurt anything! I would eat it and enjoy it.
