...and I was doing so well!

Just got back from lunch and put my foods into my food log, its surprising where the good and bad comes from in our food. I ate out at BHS (UK store) and though I knew I wasn't going for the healthy option I was shocked at the resulting nutrition;

Lasagne 476 cals 34g carbs 23g fat 30g protein
Chips 189 cals 30g carbs 7g fat 4g protein
Peas 60 cals 8g carbs 1g fat 5g protein
Mayo packet x 2 160cals 0g carbs 18g fat 0g protein

I shall be staying away from the mayo packets in the future, I knew it was fattening but didnt realise by how much so I have spent all my fat for the day now!

Yeah, logging food has had me shocked at times too... On the other hand, as long as we learn from it we won't make the same mistakes twice.
(That being said, I don't think your food was that high in calories, if you go for a lighter meal as supper you will be fine)

Amazing how foods with lower calories can be so high in fat. Sounds like you learned your lesson though! Me personally, I skip a LOT of condiments or find healthier replacements. The higher fat just isn't worth it, but I'm also at a pretty low daily calorie so every calorie and fat gram is precious to me!
