Happy 6 months of food tracking to me!

Imagine writing down everything you eat.  Literally every food / drink and morsel of smartie candy you put in your mouth.  First of all you think twice about eating something because you don't want to write it down.  You also find out certain things about your diet you did not know before.  The main thing I found out upon the first month of documenting my intake was that I ate no vegetables. Literally I ate nothing of nutritional value coming from the ground. 

Example of one of my earlier food entries:

August 21st, 2012:

8:00 AM - vanilla yogurt / coffee
12:00 PM - Wahoo's salad - with chips and guac and balsamic vin.
2:00 PM - watermelon popsicle
4:00 PM - 1/2 piece of carrot cake
7:00 PM - 2 shrimp tacos / low calorie Trader Joe's lemonade

Now this doesn't seem too bad as this was about a month and 1/2 into being more conscious but between 12:00 PM and 7:00 PM I didn't eat anything of nutritional value.  Below is an example from yesterday:

January 15th, 2013:

5:20 AM - 1/2 banana (before work out)
7:00 AM - other 1/2 banana (after work out)
8:00 AM - 3 egg whites (with seasoning)
11:00 AM - SoJu green cold pressed juice (2 apples, 6 celery stalks, 1/2 cucumber, handful of spinach, 3 collard greens, 3 kale leaves with lemon and ginger)
2:00 PM - chicken breast, quinoa (with black beans and corn) with warm broccoli salad
6:00 PM - ahi poke salad (1/4 cup) with warm kale salad

Sounds nuts but my diet these days consists of a good portion of veggies.  I've enjoyed cold pressed juices like the one a company called Suja makes.  They're a bit on the pricier side, but they're a meal - and you'd spend this at McDonalds for not NEARLY the nutritional value.  I eat about 5 small meals a day usually at 7:00 AM, 9:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 3:00 PM and around 6:00 PM.  I try not to eat after 7:00 PM but it's really difficult!
