I'm struggling with actually losing weight at the moment due to ongoing health issues that mean I'm exhausted, so I'm just trying to focus on nutrition for the moment... I fear this will be carb-heavy but does it look okay? These are options on an average day, probably carb-heavy
Breakfast:
- porridge with honey and berries/a banana
- 1 slice toast with peanut butter and a banana
- 2 scrambled eggs on 1 slice toast
...and always a coffee.
Lunch:
- wholewheat bagel with cream cheese and ham
- avocado on toast with tomatoes
- tuna salad sandwich
- pasta pesto
Dinner:
- stir fry with chicken, veg and noodles
- diet coke chicken with green veg and wedges
- homemade pizza (again with veg!)
- chicken curry (I'm scared of cooking other meats!)
- homemade veggie burgers (lentil or kidney bean based) with oven chips and more veg
Snacks:
- banana
- apple with peanut butter
- slices of ham
- precooked chicken
- smoothie (homemade, usually featuring bananas/frozen fruit/berries with some almond milk and spinach, maybe some raw cacao powder)
I'm trying hard to focus on this as my difficulty losing weight is that when I'm tired (always at the moment!) I reach for unhealthy foods for short term energy boosts or overeat at dinner. Hoping to preempt this by having a variety of nice snack options etc, also have dark choc for the evening...
I just need to focus on stopping bingeing, but does this variety of foods look ok? Trying really hard to focus on nutrition /health and could use some opinions... :) thanks in advance!
