The whole idea of "calories" as a measure of food energy is a quite recent fabrication. A moment's thought will persuade you that broccoli and Oreo cookies don't have the same effect on your cellular energy management as controlled by an assortment of hormones.
I wasn't able to access your Fitday diary. I keep my records there, too. However, if your daily nutrition involves nutrients in these proportions, and you are not hungry, you will probably be in the ballpark without any reference to calories: 65-70% fat...10% carb...20% protein.
It's a little more complicated than that, if you want to get into it. But that's a start. Don't count calories. But do pay attention to nutritional values and hunger signals.
Best wishes.
