I keep this food diary to stay aware of just how many calories I’m eating daily, with the hope that it decreases the likelihood that I’ll overeat. It seems to work, so here we go with another day…

- 01:00 PM: Raspberry flavored cream cheese Jello. 300 calories.
- 03:45 PM: 6 slices of muenster cheese. 480 calories.
- 05:30 PM: Pork roast and vegetables. 800 calories.
- 09:00 PM: 1 pint of Breyers peanut butter and chocolate ice cream. 640 calories.

07:34 PM: [Advising a friend who's complaining about feeling sad a lot.] Check out the book: You Can’t Afford the Luxury of a Negative Thought by Peter McWilliams. It’s positive, light, and makes lots of sense. Also, watch the refined carbs. Excessive white flour and sugar can depress you by upsetting your internal nutrient balance. Eat more whole foods instead. You’ll probably feel better.
08:22 PM: [Commenting on a lady's photo that depicted her, all splashed up with wet dirt]: Wow, what happened? Did kids splash a mud puddle near you?
08:24 PM: [She explained that she'd been out four-wheeling and that the wheels splashed her]: Ah yes. Looks messy but sounds fun.
