Not really getting much exercise, so I'm fine to be low on carbs and replace it with fat. Should cut back a bit on the fat too. I'm going to try to take my coffee blacker. No more 8-10 blocks every morning in just cream.

2 cups Coffee w/cream (20 blocks fat)
Mid-afternoon Snack:
handful cashews, peanuts, raisins, 4 M&M's (10 blocks fat, 1 1/2 blocks carb)

Edamame (3 blocks protein, 3 blocks carb)
Sashimi w/no rice (10 blocks protein)
Sushi roll w/beef and crab, another with Shrimp (3 blocks protein, 3 blocks carb) -tore off a lot of the rice

August 3
Breakfast:
1 sausages (1 1/2 blocks protein)

1 oz. 85% dark chocolate (4 blocks fat)
Daily Total: 11 1/2 blocks PRO, 6 1/2 blocks CHO, 26 blocks Fat
Pretty decent day, especially with eating at a restaurant! Wasn't sure about that meatloaf, but it was pretty dense in the meat and perfect fist size portion, so I'm fairly confident I didn't go overboard on the hidden carbs in that one. Replaced 4 1/2 blocks of carb with 13 blocks of fat, leaving me at an even 13 blocks of fat for the day.

4 oz. red wine (1 block carb)

A little shy on the intake today. Got busy and forgot about lunch. Got to dinner and went a bit crazy on the cashew bag. Then, mowed through the asparagus before I realized I had eaten more than I intended to. I guess if you're going to go overboard on something, asparagus and cashews ain't too bad...!
August 1
Breakfast:
Fage Plain Yogurt w/ 1 tsp. honey (1 block protein, 2 blocks carb, 5 blocks fat)

Small handful almonds (5 blocks fat)

small handful trail mix -mostly peanuts, few raisins, 4 M&Ms (3 blocks fat, 1 block carb)

6 oz. red wine (1 1/2 blocks carb)
Daily Total: 10 blocks PRO, 8 1/2 blocks CHO, 29 blocks Fat- 1 block under on PRO, replaced 2 blocks of CHO w/6 blocks Fat, and about right on fat. Should probably cut some down on the fat this week since I am taking a week off CrossFit.
Today was not different from how I typically eat, I just weighed and measured what I was eyeballing to see if my eyeball is correct. I have grown in my portion sizes of late, and I have been eating way too many tasty desserts! That was the major difference today. None of that excess!
