Let's say your going to stick to around 1200 cals a day, 40% of 1200 is 480 so you should be eating 480 cals from, carbs and protien. 20% of 1200 is 240 so that should be your fat intake.
The conversion is 4 cals per gram of carb
4 cals per gram of protein
9 cals per gram fat
If you cut down the fat to 240 cals divided by 9 = 26 grams you have eaten almost 4 times the fat you should be, now if you cut the fat you can make up the difference with real food, you can eat almost twice as much food as long as it's not fat lol.
Other than the fat content all in all not too bad but you should eat a bit more.

Thanks for the review. I know I'm supposed to count before I eat, but leftovers are leftovers. Hate to let it go to waste especially when there are a lot worse choices I COULD make. It will get better.
You and bob mention Ezekial bread. What's up with that. I've seen it in the frozen section. One of my challenges are finding some quick to grab and eat things. I don't really care for raw almonds and I'm thinking smokehouse ones are probably not a good choice. Another question- would I have been better off making a protein shake this late at night instead of the frittata?
Thanks for your time
