Food Tracking

For about a week earlier this month, I tried to record everything I ate. My main dietary goal was to maximize my protein and decrease my processed carbs. Plus I thought recording it (through the memo app on my phone) would help me track it all.


I want to get it off my phone but couldn't think of anywhere else to post it. So, here it is; maybe I learned (or will learn) something from it: 

Feb 3: Breakfast: 2 1/2 bowls Frosted Flakes with 1 pct milk
