How much is too much?

I've eaten the following items in the last 24 hours:
  • A large wedge of Camembert
  • 8 sundried tomatoes (97.5% fat free)
  • 8 kalamata olives
  • Brown bread roll with Butter
  • 1/2 cup of Muesli
  • Banana
  • Chocolate Biscuit x 1
  • Leftover chicken curry
  • Hot Chocolate
In this list of food stuffs, I imagine there is somewhere in the region of 70grams of fat, and god knows how much salt. Compared to my diet of last week (nil fat and nil salt) this has been quite a shock on the system and I think my body has now started to reject everything.

Is it possible that the above is too much for a 24 hour period? Does a normal person have trouble with such an amount of food? Should I stop now, or carry on? How can I stop when I've re-tasted the good stuff? How long do I need to spend on the treadmill to work this off? How many calories is in the above list? Am I doomed to a lifetime of asking the same questions about everything that I eat? Have I become an Obsessive Compulsive Eater? DO I HAVE AN EATING DISORDER?

I have PMT. I can now say that the above sentiments should be largely attributed to this condition - this natural state - of the female banshee.

Still, if anybody can enlighten me regarding the questions I've listed, I'd very much appreciate your assistance and will pay you back in kind.
