Pivoting multiple columns

Hello,

I have a table like this:

although it has more 8 columns.

could you please tell me how can I Pivot the whole table, in such a way that for each day I get one row, not multiple rows.

@Anonymous , Please check this power query code. Unpivot value column. Merge column - Meal + attribure

Pivot again

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMtY31DcyMDJS0lHyKc1LzgDShgYgQilWB0XWqSg1MTstsbgEJGkIIvSM0NWkZOblpRYBGRZAbAyVNcJrvhER5hvhMj8WAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, Meal = _t, Cal = _t, Fat = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", type date}, {"Meal", type text}, {"Cal", Int64.Type}, {"Fat", type number}}),
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Date", "Meal"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Merged Columns" = Table.CombineColumns(#"Unpivoted Columns",{"Meal", "Attribute"},Combiner.CombineTextByDelimiter(" ", QuoteStyle.None),"Merged"),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Merged Columns", List.Distinct(#"Merged Columns"[Merged]), "Merged", "Value", List.Sum)
in
    #"Pivoted Column"
