How would you log this?
I went out to dinner tonight at a Mexican Restaurant. I ordered a Shrimp Cocktail (It was HUGE). It had Jumbo Shimp, cocktail shrimps, tomato, avocado, lime, cilantro, and onion. How would I log that in my food diary? Any suggestions on calories, fats, carbs, and protein in my meal? Thanks! :happy:
