Did I overeat? How many calories did I take in?

[Anonymous]

I'm a recovering anorexic and my parents are trying to put weight on me, but I still occasionally freak out about my caloric intake. Keep in mind that I'm Canadian, so calories may be different than the states. (Snacks were eaten 6hs apart)
Breakfast: 1 cup cornflakes, half cup of skim milk, greek yogurt (120 cal)
Lunch: Kraft dinner, 1 cup
Snacks: 90 cal yogurt, smallest size mcflurry from mcds
Dinner: Marie Callendar's frozen chicken pot pie ( and a half), half cup mash potatoes, made with skim milk, 1/4 cup of corn.

What fitness pal has told me.

1 cup of corn flakes 100 calories
1/2 cup of skim milk 40 calories
greek yoghurt 120 calories

Breakfast = 260 calories

Kraft Dinner 1 cup = 275 calories
Lunch = 275 calories

Yoghurt = 90 calories
Snack size Mcflurry (Canada) = approx 390

Snacks = 480 calories

Chicken pot pie 1pie = 380 * 1.5 = 570 calories
Mashed Potatoes 1/2 cup = 160 calories

Dinner = 730 calories

Total approx = 1995 calories

It looks like a good amount of calories for a young female, but I would need to know your height, weight, level of activity and age to know exactly what is happening.

but 117 at 5'2" is a normal weight for a female.

Calories are the same everywhere I think. Also, hello from Canada as well.
You're young don't worry about calories at this time, just watch what you're eating. Eating lean proteins and veggies is great. Try to fit in things like oatmeal, whole wheat bread, or eggs in your breakfast. If you can't eat heavy foods like chicken breasts, try tofu.

that sounds like a healthy amount of calories to eat in a day. try to eat more fruits and veggies though too to make sure you're getting all your nutrients. good luck with your recovery hon!

You did not over eat but try to eat equal portions for every meal. You ate more for dinner then you did for breakfast when you should eat big breakfasts and smaller dinners.
