Am I reading this wrong or are you drinking 1/2 cup half & half, plus cream in your coffee?

You need to make it public first. Otherwise we can't see your foods. You can change the settings in the Profile tab.

The broccoli and celery is 3 net carbs...the rest is all that cream and then some from the cheeses. This is how FitDay can be so very helpful in learning how to re-tool our menus.

You need more veg for today and tomorrow...knock off all that cream! When you have dinner tonight maybe have the rest of your veggies and some protein & fats.

No need to throw in the towel...weight loss and healthy living is a learning experience.

I don't know how to use fit day very well. In total with coffee and in my eggs I guessed at .5 cups of half and half cream. I rounded up but its only like .3 of a cup for everything.

Not sure where you get 3 net carbs for the broccoli and celery because that is not what the sitday thing says even subtracting the fibre from the carbs.

This is stupid!

I just made it public.

OK...you measure veggies raw so
.5 c. of raw broccoli has 3g carb - 1g fiber = 2g net carb.
2 medium celery ribs have 2g carb - 1g fiber = 1g net carb.
2 + 1 = 3g net carbs.

ETA: Black forest ham is smoked/cured not fresh ham. Fresh ham is similar to pork roast. Carb counts are the same but sodium is higher on the smoked ham.

ETA2: I don't think you had 3 cups of vinegar (ewww) so that would knock down your carbs a bit too.
