I need to plan my meals better

Yesterday I was supposed to have a low calorie day (1720 calories) and I thought I did pretty well until I added it all up this morning and saw that it came out to 2025, which isn't aweful but isn't great either. I really need to sit down and plan out my meals so I'm not just eating randomly and hoping for the best. I really need to not do this half-assed like I've been doing. I really didn't need that 3rd piece of pizza last night. It was just mushroom pizza so it wasn't horrible calorie-wise but that was 210 calories I didn't need just because I felt like having a little more. My workout went really well last night. I did Muscle Endurance and both of the kids decided they wanted to do it with me so I let them use my 3 pound weights. Nick did the whole thing and Emily did her own thing when she didn't feel like doing some of the exercises. I'm actually thinking I need to heavy up next time I do that one because I finished it with so few problems. The only exercises I had a hard time with were the ones that only used bodyweight and the abwork with the medicine ball. Today I'm planning to go for a 2 mile run. Track and Field starts at Nick's school today so he may or may not come along. If he goes for a run today at school he probably won't want to do one with me tonight.
