Eat them if you are responding to hunger and eat only until you are just satisfied but not full.

I log it before to see if the plan fits my target numbers. Then I make any adjustment throughout the day. Some days I go a bit over, some days I go a bit below when I make adjustments. Most important thought I try to be thorough and accurate. My goal is that the final blurb when I close the diary at the end of the day is a…
