So after several crap meals I finally hit a wall yesterday. I'd hat a large box of Stauffer's Mac and cheese the night before and woke up yesterday feeling like I hadn't slept. I was in a fog all day, tried to nap off and on and couldn't much, only ate 1/2 my designated cals (and a third of what I had been eating) yesterday. Now I'm finally starting to feel better. I'd be super strict today except I'm headed for some traveling today for work and need to be sharp and have flexible eating.
So new plan: be as good as do-able while I'm traveling then get back to my designated cals and macros when I return, mid-next week. I got into bad habits over finals and it's time to recover from them.

Oh my goodness, I was doing well and now I'm at the point where I'm hitting the MacDoh and eating 75% of my calories for breakfast! WTF! :( This has got to be a mental issue. I don't feel depressed, maybe a bit overwhelmed, but part of that is the sugar, it raises my anxiety levels. Such a self-defeating circle.

Food day success! I'm swinging back onto the happy fat train. The mood improvement when I cut sugar is so immediate, it's really dramatic. Of course, correlation /= causation. Maybe I cut sugar when I'm feeling better? (Possible, not probable, though.)
My fail of the day was going ahead and eating the gluten-free rolls. I was going to sub them for potatoes, but I didn't have potatoes. They didn't even taste good. Oh well, now they're gone so I don't have to feel guilty about being wasteful on a grad-student's budget.
I'll go over my carb preference with mangoes this evening. But at least they are real food with lots of fiber! I don't do the net-carb thing because it messes up my sense of how much food I've eaten. But I let myself go a little over my preferred carb limits if I'm eating fibrous things due to the science/concept of net carbs. I also tend to be pretty lax in my exactness with tracking. In amounts I think I'm pretty close, but a lot of what I eat I make myself, or eat specialty brands that are healthier than the ones listed on here. For example, the salsa from today I made myself and I used Penzy's taco spices which don't have any sugar. Of course, fs thinks both of these items have sugar, so I just chose a brand randomly and plugged it in. It's close enough.
In related news, because I'm semi-paleo (in theory if not practice) I try to avoid beans; plus they don't sit very well in me. Today I stirred some canned butternut squash in my taco meat and it made a consistency just like if I were eating refried beans! Huzzah! Been looking for an appropriately creamy sub for beans for years!

Finals are over and tomorrow is food day! I'm all stocked up. I shall only eat "real" food that I have prepared myself to guarantee its authenticity. I shall drink only water, carbonated water, tea.
I shall attempt to get back on my desired macro levels and calorie levels because I've been feeling like crapola and wanting to sleep with my carbs above about 80 and I can't so I eat more to keep myself awake. Because that makes sense. lol.
And I'm planning to work hard tomorrow, clean my apartment, do laundry and NOT do academics! Yay!
Oh I forgot! Also I think I want to plan out my meals the night before. Maybe that will keep me on track (and remind me that I have leftovers) if I know what I'm going to be eating already.
Breakfast: over-easy egg on baby bok choi. Tea with cream (no sugar!)
Lunch: last of the leftover short ribs on gluten free bun (or two) carbonated water.
Dinner: Either a curry with veg and chicken thighs OR a taco salad, depending on how I feel and how much I feel like cooking. Carbonated water. Maybe tea if I feel like it.
Dessert/Snack: Mangoes
And now my journal looks like Christmas. lol.
