Yesterday was a perfect example of my high-carbohydrate junk-food diet, so I am posting it.

-Water crackers, 9 ounces
-Semolina pasta, 8 ounces before cooking
-Vegan croutons, 7 ounces
-Matzo, 5 ounces
-Rice cakes, 3 ounces
-Pretzel sticks, 1.5 ounces
-Fake meat, 1 ounce ("I had it at home" is my best excuse for eating that)
-Rice crackers, 0.875 ounces

That is approximately 4000 kilocalories, most of it coming from refined wheat.

[RubyDuby]

steven, it doesnt seem like ur absentmindedly eating, since you know how many ounces of each you've eaten. Can't u just substitute some of the wheat and carbs for something else if ur unhappy with it?

so far today:
2 mugs chai tea with sugar and soy milk
2 mugs coffee with brown sugar and soy milk
hash browns
tofu scramble with fresh spinach and salsa
rye toast with a whole avocado spread on top
banana chips, dried apricot, dried pineapple rings and raw walnuts
small bowl of dahl
2 pitas filled with falafel, hummus, tahini, pickles, lettuce and tomato.

With some exceptions, I eat absentmindedly and figure the amounts afterwards. My stomach condition requires me to eat mostly carbohydrates, with the occasional concentrated protein. I probably should eat more rice instead of wheat, but wheat tastes so good that it is difficult to restrict.

Water crackers are a nearly flat snack product made from refined wheat flour. Water crackers have many small holes, are approximately 2.25 inches in diameter, and weigh 3-4 grams each.
