April 8, 2011: Trimming the Fat

First, yesterday's food:

04/08/11 Bed at 2:30 am/up at 9:00 am
God time? No
[P] Egg white
[P] Chili (beans)
[V] McDonald’s Bacon Ranch Salad w/ lite balsamic vinaigrette
[F] X
[F] X
[St] Kashi Go Lean Crunch w/ flax
[St] Chili (beans)
[D] Skim milk
[D] Sour cream (chili)
[D] Skim milk
[Sn] Nightfood bar
 [W] Two cups (including tea w/ creamer
*[PURE SUGAR] McDonald’s small caramel frappe (no whipped cream or drizzle)

It took so long for me to format the food list, trying to copy it (unsuccessfully) from the My Plate feature of Livestrong.com, that I don't have much time to write anything of substance. I did go to my sleep doctor today, and we're going to try a new medication that does not promote compulsive behavior (like staying up all night on the computer, eating and shopping compulsively). I hope it works. I need some normalcy in my life, as attracted as I am to the whirlwind drama of self-neglect as well as active self-abuse. :-( 

My groovy Daily Plate macronutrient pie chart shows me that I am waaaay over in my fats, averaging over two days in the mid-forties (grams, that is). So, that's where  the excess weight is coming from! Evil delicious-tasting fat!

So, tell me, how do you trim the fat in your diet, and what do you eat for low-calorie, low-fat snacks? Inquiring minds want to know!
