I eat too much

I have tried every diet out there, Weight Watchers, South Beach, Jenny Craig and Spark People. And it's always the same thing...I diet, I lose, I diet, I lose and even now I am munching on some Riceworks Brown Rice crisps.  So I decided, VERY PUBLICLY, to post my food journal, one more to log my journey.  And I also decided to try natural food, because it's like, maybe there is something to all those preservatives that are making me gain weight?  (well, it's a thought).
So, a little about me:  I am fortyish (the ish can swing either way) and weigh, OK,  enough to lose 10 or 20 lbs.   I know it's not the biggest thing to want to lose 10 pounds, but you know what?  I used to weight 120.  So it seems with every year, I gain 1 or 2, which means more and more and yes, guessed it MORE.  I ain't getting any younger, so it's MY time now baby!

So you must be wondering by now what peanut butter has to do with a diet?  Well, I think I figured something out.  There IS a reason why I quit- quit posting, quit tracking and all that stuff.  It's because I am BORED with what I am eating.  So, I decided to take a walk on the wild side today.  Not with breakfast which was my usual coffee yogurt and raisins, but with LUNCH.  I craved carbs.  So carbs it was.  First an amazing slice of Ultimate Grain All Natural Granola bread (which weighed in at 110 calories/slice).  They don't have a website, otherwise I'd like you to it.  Then, delicious creamy brad's organic peanut butter.  I had less than the two tables spoons.  Lastly, Brad's Organic fruit spread.  And YUM.  I also switched to a new tracker called My Fitness Pal and I find it a lot easier than Spark People's tracker.  Sorry Spark People, yours just takes too long.  My Fitness pal also has a lot more natural and organic foods than spark people.  Well anyway, I find out that I really need to eat 1200 calories per day NOT 1400 (bye bye wine).  So, a pretty tasty lunch at only 306 calories, but 12 grams of protein.  Yikes, only 500 calories left for the day!  I need to BE STRONG.
