I'm not sure what the calorie count on the lean roast pork is, but it might not be as high as you think. I count calories using [url]http://www.calorieking.com[/url]."

lakelady said: "Blinky, maybe you're the type that shouldn't just have three scheduled meals. Try dividing your total calorie count (use missred's site, or [url]http://www.calorie-count.com/[/url] ) into several small snack-type meals. That way you're never too full or too hungry, and it keeps your metabolic rate up."

blinky said: "Thanks lakelady :D. Keeping track of my water intake is something I'm really keeping an eye on. April 22,2007 Breakfast: Oatmeal Lunch: Mashed potatoes with gravy and 3 pieces of lean roast pork (thumbs down :() Snack: Half of corn Dinner: (not exactly; given my hearty lunch I was once again too full) Milk Water - 8 glasses Exercise: an hour of tennis or running or jump rope (I still have yet to decide):roll:"
