Total Est Calories: 1695
Note, there’s no coke or other worthless drinks in a day. I do try to have 2 cups of milk most days – there have been medical studies that show calcium aids with weight loss. I don’t know, but I do know that nuts and milk are filling for me. Some kind of protein is also helpful to me first thing in the morning. Again, I don’t know why, just that it is.
Sometimes I need a Cheat Food Day.
