Nutrients and Calories for today

This is a very boring way of looking at what I plan on eating for today. Not my favorite way of posting it.

I usually use images but this one shows more detail.
I am low in calories but high in protein for the day and I managed to keep the carbs fairly low so I am not going to worry about the calories today. That will all change tomorrow anyway.

I am testing myself with the carbs. I adjusted my target range after I read more about them. I think I will have a hard time keeping them as low as what I have read about.
I eat good carbs, mostly fruit, but I want to try and keep them low for a week or so to see if it make a difference.

I also had to increase the amount of Non fat cottage cheese to boost the protein. I don't usually have a full cup.
Hope this day works good for me. Right now it is time for the cottage cheese and a cup of tea.
Yes, calories do count, even if you don't.
