The calories for yesterday are suspect (as usual). I had piglets for lunch and those are an unknown for calories. These were pretty fatty, so I suspect that the calories were higher there.

Dinner was a Vietnamese Beef and Pineapple dish. I weighed the meat before and the can of pineapple (with juice). You don't drain the meat juice, so I figured that the results were that proportion of meat and pineapple. I used the raw weight of the beef rather than cooked, since the water/juice was kept. The dish also has onion, garlic, and fish sauce but I didn't count those and figured I could ignore the weight since some of the liquid was going to cook off. Who knows.

I am definitely hitting that "slowing down" stage of the diet. I felt really resistant to doing the exercise yesterday but it wasn't too bad once I got started. I need to keep it up even if I don't want to do it, to keep from losing muscle.
