Calorie counting

I have never, not once, not even as part of an experiment, counted calories. I’ve never had to watch what I eat. I eat anything and everything. I do not eat healthy. I do not eat vegetables. Ew. Anything green makes me want to vomit. I eat chips, fast food, and lots of other junk (not usually sweets, though) on a daily basis.

I have never, not once, counted calories.

Sis recently participated in a weight loss contest at her work. For a couple of months, several people competed against each other. I watched her count calorie after calorie, and pass up rather delicious food, just to be able to say, “I WON!”. And she did. She won $260.

Today, I downloaded a calorie counter app. I’m not doing it to lose weight. My 110lb physic doesn’t need to lose anything else. It’s just fine. However, I am just a little bit curious about my calorie intake.

I entered in my stats, and it calculated some things for me. I entered in everything I’d eaten today, so far, and Wha-La! As of 5:08pm, I was only allowed 415 more calories today. And I hadn’t even eaten dinner yet. Or had my late night snacks. Uh oh. I think I’m in trouble. :-(  It’s 8:04pm, and my meter currently reads -435.

There’s no doubt I don’t eat healthy, I just wonder how I keep losing weight.
