I am not always good about writing down what I eat.  When I write it down, then I can keep track and I stay under what I need too.  However, when I don&#8217;t write it down, stuff gets away from me.  Either I forget this bite here and that nibble there, or I don&#8217;t realize how bad bad is.  (I mean, I was never under any delusion that homemade macaroni and cheese was low density diet food, but 16 points for a cup!)

Now the next big step is to get to 225lbs.  That is when I drop my daily points from 28 to 26.  Then down to 211, that will be the next 10% and so on.
