As much as you're running, you might want to try upping your carb intake just a little bit. Aim for 50/30/20 instead of 50/25/25. Or 50/35/15...something like that. As long as they're clean carbs then you shouldn't have a problem. Carbs will replenish muscle glycogen which is how you'll recover from cardio. I don't know when you did your cardio, but you only took in 120 calories from carbs yesterday. And 18g was in the form of sugar.
Carrots are high GI. I know, I know...they have a low glycemic load. But you ate 3/4 of a lb of them which is kind of a lot.
You probably feel like you're overeating just because you're not used to it. No worries..you'll get used to it. It used to be hard for me to take in 3500 calories a day. Now it's just normal.
