Counting calories? Trying to figure out if my diet works.

Greetings friends. I've been trying to eat healthier for quite a while now, and managed to lose 10 kiloes (approx 20 pounds)

last summer. I was then following Dr Fuhrman's dieting tips (mainly salads and vegetables) and it did okay, but being so super strict

just didn't hold it for me in the long run. But now I am back at it, have read tons, learned a lot, and I'm now going for a not-as-healthy,

but definitively way healthier lifestyle than I normally have ran.



Today, I ate (unusual day, fewer bigger meals since I was largely out shopping etcetera):



Breakfast:


4 crispbread (healthiest I could find, about 50-60 calories a slice)

with liver pate (about 120 calories per 100g, not too much on each slice)

cucumber slices

paprika slices

glass of milk (approx 100 calories)



Dinner:

wholegrain pasta, large portion (semi-calculating all my meals as I write)

mashed tomatoes (15 calories)

cut ham (110 calories approx)



Supper:

2 crispbread

with liver pate

cucumber slices

paprika slices

an apple



Which counts for approximately a total of...

450 calories breakfast (I usually don't drink milk, though. heard both good and bad things, have to research more.)

600-700 calories dinner (I'm really not sure about this one, but I believe it's somewhere in that area, considering pasta, whether wholegrain or not, is heavy.)

200 calories ~ supper



Counting this makes me realise I might be not getting enough calories, as a 5.5 feet / 170cm male 21 years old (should have stated that earlier.)

Coupled this with the fact that I try to jog for 50 minutes, which shows up as 440 calories lost on the threadmill.



Is this too little? I do at times feel extremely hungry, but I think that might be because I'm used to eating alot.

I know several people who eat less than what I described there, so it's not that bad, is it?

At times it feels like I could go crazy over food, and just want to eat 5-6 crispbread in a sitting, but I have some willpower.
