When I got home from work, I was HUNGRY. But I was good. Before I even started fixing myself something to eat, I came in here and counted up all my calories for the day. They were higher than I had hoped. (Raisin bran is higher in calories than some cereals, but the last time I ate it, it seemed to be more lasting that some things.) Anyway, after I reviewed what I had already had, I knew I couldn't just eat anything I felt like eating. I wanted some salmon. (I like canned salmon.) But after I saw on the side of the can that 1/4 cup was 90 calories and that there were SEVEN servings in a can, I knew I couldn't just eat as much as I'd like to. So I made the "Salmon Salad". It was good. It was especially better after I added the raisins and sugar substitute. And I think it would have been even better with some apple in it, but I didn't want to add that many more calories last night. In general though, for a meal, 350 calories would not be bad, so adding an apple would be okay.
