My weight is 176 today. I ate 1926 calories. I had TJs scallion pancakes which are essentially potatoe pancakes with vegetables. So after eating two, I decided to make my own recipe for potatoe pancakes with vegetables. After allot of trial and error, I was successful. The problem is I was not carefully paying attention to the amount of ingredients used. So I have approximated this by finding potatoe pancakes on MFP and multiplied it accordingly to get the actual calories in each pancake, counting the butter and olive oil separately. This calorie count should be close.

So I did not exersize today when I wanted to. I was too caught up with what I was doing in the kitchen. I was going to walk a mile or so, keeping the serious exersizing to every other day. Oh well. What is interesting is that MFP deducted calories for daily activity. I suspect the 2086 calories for maintenance must already include some walking. This makes sense. But it was only 86 calories. Strange.
