@Tucson: Glad to hear it is working better.

I think I need to start bouncing around in a range instead of always trying to get exactly to 1650. Part of it is that it is never exact. I eat a lot of fruit and for much of it I just use entries for a single piece of fruit about the right size. I do weigh bananas and some apples.

Eating oatmeal multiple times a day leaves me less room for picking things I really want. I like oatmeal, but I wouldn't commit so much of my calorie allowance to it every day if I wasn't trying this challenge to lower LDL. Anyway, I like pie and would love to fit in a slice here and there. Edwards singles of banana cream and lemon icebox are about 320 calories; not that hard to squeeze in every now and then.
