I notice in looking back over my meals that I’m not doing as well as I should for the food pyramid thing. Overall I think I’m getting enough protein, some days less but like today I had to much. I’m doing pretty good on the vegetables. I put a lot in my salads - peppers, cucumber, carrots, broccoli. Grains I do better good on also. Where I’m really bad is fruit & dairy. The funny thing is that I like fruit, I just forget to eat it. I’m going to start eating cereal more often, that way I’ll get a cup of milk in the morning (& I won’t throw so much away). I bought some calcium tablets today & the clerk - who was about 25 years old - said that after age 26 you are supposed to have 500 milligrams a day. I was going to say I was in big trouble because I’m way past 26 but I was hoping she thought I was younger (like 39).

I feel better today but exhausted. I made myself eat breakfast & lunch but just don’t want to eat anything else & felt too tired for exercise. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll feel better.
