Reflection: I have learned that consuming more than say, 500-600 calories in one setting is way too much.  Eating late at night will do me no good since peanut butter can be fattening if eaten in large quantities.

Number of calories: 2790
Number of carbs: 269
How much or number of ounces: 60 oz. water+  60 oz. coffee 
Where eaten or drank:  Home
Overall summary: I need to eat more healthy food and exercise more.  I also need to consume more grains, dairy, and beans.  My goal is to consume more healthy foods since I admit to not eating healthy.  That has been a struggle of mine.
