Am I not logging my food right?

weigh and measure everything and use the data base - guessing the calories isn't going to work.

The egg is probably an extra large
Look for the brand for your bread - use the data base
weigh the mozza cheese (cals depend on the thickness of slice)
2 slices of turkey bacon (look for the brand and enter it)
butter (how much? weigh it)
Grande Skinny latte (look for the coffee shop you got it from in the data base)
giant bowl of carrot and celery sticks? weigh them or go to the data base and find the approx size of carrots and celery and enter how many you used
giant bowl of fruit salad? was it homemade? Use the recipe tab and enter what all was put in the fruit salad and how many servings it made
1/4 cup of raw almonds (best to weigh these but you should be able to find it in the data base)
A large pear you should be able to find in the data base
Starbucks chicken and hummus should be in the data base
16 oz of coffee is 2 cups plus whatever you put in them
read the label for the gum

Bacon fried in butter? Yikes! Yes sounds about right to me but you might want to weigh

^^ What everyone else has already said...weighing everything is paramount to getting an accurate calorie count. You can find cheap digital scales online. I think mine was $12.

2 slices of turkey bacon cooked with some butter

LOL WHY?!

I wouldn't be surprised that the starbucks trip racked up calories /:

Agreed.

Very large sweetened coffee drinks can be like a hot milkshake if you aren't careful. Even the ones with skim milk still have a lot of calories if any "mocha" chocolate or flavor containing sugar is added on.

Was it an ostrich egg?

I'd stay away from starbucks...

That's why MFP is so great - when you log your eyes nearly fall out of your head :noway: when you see what calories hide in food! The next step is to learn, make some changes, and keep logging

I agree with everyone re weighing or measuring - somewhere I saw a video about measuring - when something says teaspoon, it means LEVEL not just dig in and hold as much as you can on the spoon which I guess most of us tend to do :laugh: ... and so on.

Just found Starbucks Chicken thingy you had, doesn't look too bad in calories. http://www.starbucks.com/menu/food/bistro-boxes/chicken-and-hummus-bistro-box

Sound slike you are having a good go - low fat, lots of fruit etc - in Australia they promote TWO fruit and FIVE veg a day - this is the websie if you want to have a look

Good luck with your MFP logging and learning

Weigh & lookup the correct brands for the food. It is amazing how some days things add up so quickly but it doesn't appear to be much.

And the giant bowl of fruit? Well that could be 90 cals for a whole apple, 100+ cals for a whole banana, depending on what other fruits you put in there. You could be eating 400 worth of fruit? Possibly....

Her grande skinny vanilla latte had 120cal and 12g of protein. It's actually a pretty good choice at Starbucks, all things considered.

I was mostly thinking about the wrap/sandwhich thing she got /: I tried to look it up online but it wasn't listed.

The bistro thingy she got is around 480-580 calories I think.

I sometimes feel like I ate way more, or less . Today it says 2600. please tell me how would you log these foods in and what would you get.
A massive boiled egg
2 slices of whole wheat bread(90 each)
3 slices of mozerella
2 slices of turkey bacon cooked with some butter
Grande skinny vanilla latte
Giant bowl of carrots and celery sticks
Giant bowl of fruit salad
1/4 cup of raw almonds
A large pear
Starbucks chicken and hummus bistro package
And 7 pieces of sugarless gum and 16 oz coffee.

I didn't think it would be THAT much. Is it correct?

And by the way, by giant, I mean..... GIANT.

Thank you.

We can't tell you if it's correct because we don't know what GIANT means. 2 cup salad bowl? 8 cup mixing bowl? Also, what fruits were in the salad? What size slices of mozza? Nothing on your list seems "bad" because in the right quantities you can have what you want but it's impossible to tell what quantities you're eating.
