Wow

I started counting calories as soon as I started to eat healthier. And I was calculating them religiously. I wanted to calculate all the other things but didn't know how much of each I would need or should have. After much research I figured up those numbers I needed. Well, today is my first day calculating everything, and let me just say it's a pain, BUT where the Wow comes in is. I'm looking at my over all numbers and I haven't even been realizing how much sodium things have and all that. I mean I tried to look and go light on sodium and carbs and things of that nature but they add up so quickly. I'm going to have to re-evaluate my pantry. And maybe then I will notice even more changes in my body, I hope (: That's all. I just wanted to say wow, it all adds up even if you think you're going light on something. Without writing it down you never know, you just guesstimate.

sodium and sugars surprised me too- so much added to foods that are supposed to diet or healthy:grumble:
