Hi, Susie!

Does that graphic represent percentage of calories from fats, carbs, and proteins?
Or is it based on volume percentages of food eaten?

I use a tool called FitDay.
Like most, it's "calorie centered". But it does provide good carb counts and summaries.
A "calorie centered" graph would show fewer percentage carbs as insoluble fiber has 0 calories.

My FitDay summary looks like this;

Fat  67%
Protein 22%
Carbs 4%

It probably does Tony. Sparkpeople calculated that  I ate 1,079 calories, 61 non net carbs (17 net) and 62 grams of fat.

Here's what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast
Low Carb Flaxmeal Griddle Cakes
Heavy Whipping Cream, 1 tbsp
Land O Lakes, Salted Whipped Butter, 1 Tbsp
Stater Bros Sugar Free Syrup 1/4 cup
Almond Breeze Almond Milk, Unsweetened Vanilla, 8 oz

Lunch
chicken breast strips, grilled, Foster Farms (frozen), 3 oz
Great Value Sugar Snap Stir-Fry 3/4 cup
Cauliflower, cooked, 100 grams
Trader Joe's Organic Coconut Oil, 1 tbsp

Dinner
Cauliflower, cooked, 1 cup
House Foods - Tofu Shirataki - Fettuccine Shaped Noodle Substitute, 4 oz
Bertolli Light Alfredo Sauce, 0.25 cup
chicken breast strips, grilled, Foster Farms (frozen), 3 oz

Snacks
Mahler's California Lifestyle Flax Soy Bread, 2 slices
Land O Lakes, Salted Whipped Butter, 2 Tbsps
Vita's Low Carb Tortilla, 7" Whole Wheat Low Carb Tortilla

Today was payday. I bought 2 weeks of food for only $60. Had to get everything on sale. Only meats under $3.00 a lb. So bought only chicken & beef. Also bought vegetables at the Mexican Market. I am dicing & slicing then measuring and weighing all vegetables to make sure I watch the carbs and that they stretch to 14 days. Most of my veggies were 25¢ and 50¢ a lb. I also bought 1/2 gallon heavy whipping cream and 1/2 gallon of unsweetened almond milk.


For the Jobs Daughters Grand Bethel we will be eating out at restaurants for lunch 3 days and dinner 3 days. The hotel has breakfast but I doubt it's not low carb friendly. I plan to make low carb waffles, freeze them and bring them in a cooler bag. Will also bring sugar free syrup, Mini Moo half & half creamers, my homemade sugar-free ketchup, nuts, roasted edamame etc.

Today we will start sewing skirts. All council members and girls wear outfits made with same fabric. We all go out & pick out the fabric together. Mary & I are the only ones making our own. Everyone else is either having a family member make them or paying a seamstress. To save time, we are just making skirts. Mary is making herself a gathered skirt, I am making myself a straight skirt that has slits on the sides. The material is pink & white chevron design.

Today I made chicken fajitas. I season the 3 oz chicken, 3/4 c bell peppers & 2 tbsp onion with 2 tsp smoked paprika, 2 tsp chili powder and 1 tbsp fresh lime juice. It was delicious!

Solid menu Susie, the carb total on your pie chart would be high for me.

That's what I thought too, Doug.
But I also agree that Susie's menu looks good.

Laying on the sofa, under a blanket, on my cellphone. I don't feel well. Mary almost done with a respiratory infection. Grand bethel convention is in one week.

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well.
But nice to hear that Mary is recovering.

Get well soon, Susie!

Thanks, Umpa!... Been there for about a month now.
But since I'm a living organism, my weight varies 2-3 pounds up and down from goal.
