Critique my eating!
Alright - it's like the critique my budget on MMs. And I don't want to hear "cut the almond butter" 
So, while losing 150lbs I have never tracked calories. However, I have hit a major plateau, and have been lacking in energy more than usual. I also keep getting dehydrated. My trainer asked me to keep a calorie log for a week so we can try to figure out what is going on.
Here is the link to where I have been journaling...

Also, in retrospect I should have documented drinks too. I only really drink water and seltzer water. I did document any drink with calories, but not 0 calorie drinks. I don't drink anything with artificial sweetener either.
I also included my workouts. What I'm looking for advice on is am I eating too much or too little. I weight 149 and am 5'3". Even after looking at the logs, I have no idea.
Re: Critique my eating!
The only thing that jumps out at me is the ground turkey calories seem really high. I think that low-fat ground turkey is about 120 calories for 4 oz, but you list 800 calories once and 400 calories another time. Unless you're eating over a pound of it, that seems crazy.
Are you measuring everything?
two years!

Are you weighing your food or just eyeballing and estimating? I see some of your calories are off (either estimated too high or too low on some items).
ETA - They could be higher/lower based on measurements though so that's why I asked.
Well the turkey is right.
What else did you see the looked wrong?
IMO you are eating too much animal.
I would try to swap out some of the animal protein for seed/nuts and more leafy greens and veggies.
I am not qualified to give advice, and am 90% vegan so I may be biased.
If your lunch and dinner calories are right I might try and cut back some of the portions. Maybe a smaller portion of turkey or a little less protein powder in your shakes.
Are you snacking? I might save some of your fruit/veggies from your meal for a snack.
Nom nom almond butter
Use water instead of milk for the protein shakes, or substitute unsweetened almond milk (35 calories/cup vs. 80 calories/cup in skim milk). (Personally, I use half water, half unsweetened almond milk in mine)
Cut down on the # of bananas you eat.
Add leafy greens to the shakes.
When you have eggs, like scrambled eggs, use 3 whites and 1 yolk or use yolk-free egg substitute.
I think you look amazing in your siggy pic. I don't have any critiques of your diet, I just wanted to let you know that.
Taken today.... I would at least like to get in the "normal" BMI range, which is 140 for my height.
Really the only thing that sticks out to me is the bananas and pineapple. Tropical fruits can mess with your blood sugar. Try just taking those out. Another thing that has helped me when I hit a plateau is to mix it up. Try going lower with your calorie count on random days and higher on others.
Congratulations on your weight loss, it is an amazing accomplishment!
You look fantastic and are doing such an amazing job!
I echo what the other said about "normal" BMI. You probably have too much muscle mass to be healthy and maintain that "normal" level. My BIL is an ex all natural body builder and marathon runner and he is considered obese according to his BMI.
It seems like you have a lot of calories coming from meat and dairy and are lacking in vegetables - especially dark greens. Maybe cut down on some of the meat and add in a large spinach salad.
