I'm kind of having a terrible week. I am waiting anxiously for some important news that will decide my fate in for the next umpteen years and I'm going through a psych meds change and today I am feeling so sad for no apparent reason that eating has been a chore. I succumbed to carby cereal in the morning because I really wanted it, for about 220 calories. I had 1.4 cup 2% milk with. Then I ate a little low-fat yogurt, and then a 100 calorie pudding cup.
Then I had a skim latte and because I friend was taking me out for coffee, I had a few bites of rice crispy treat.
So I think I am at about 800 with crap nutrition and I just don't have it in me to eat anymore.
Maybe it will make up for previous high days and it will all even out. If I don't drink or eat anything else tonight, my 5 day general averages will be:
General (92%)
Energy 1402.6 kcal 108%
Protein 69.4 g 71%
Carbs 176.2 g 114%
Fiber 26.0 g 104%
Fat 42.5 g 99%
Water 2229.4 g 83%
And over 100 in most nutrients. Slackers:
B1 89%
B3 80%
D 7%
E 61 %
Iron 60%
Potassium 77 %
Saturated fat 47%
Omega 6 57% (vs 148 % O3)
Cholesterol: 72%
Not shabby for my first 5 days of official CRON, I think. Although I think I see some beer or wine in my future this evening.
PS: I ended up making my precious haddock for a starving non CR boyfriend. I made a honey-lemon almond glaze and cooked the fish up in that. I just tasted it, so I don't know how many calories it was, but HOLY FLYING CROW it was tasty. I also had some gin and a beer. It's been one of those nights. I'm still way under target, though. I just wish I could stop feeling so damn bad.

Hi Caroline,
You're right that it's averages that matter most. I will often check my averages in COM to make sure that everything is coming out nicely over the span of several days. I make an oyster kale soup that gives over 700% for B12 and zinc, for example, so for the day before and after I make the soup I really don't worry about those nutrients. Keep up the good work and the great blogging!
