Comes to 1522 calories, my BMR is 1461. I geocached, which entailed light walking for about 1 hour for a slow burn of 138 calories bringing my total for the day to -77....not quite good enough to lose weight but definitely better than gaining. Tomorrow I will eat more and work out as well. I find that I am hard pressed to get all the recommended allowances from the pyramid in and still stay under my BMR...I have tons of the oil and sugar ones left for today as well as one of the proteins...I just can't add the calories at this point. At least I got all the minimum fruits and veggies in.
