Stupid question I know, but I have never watched my diet and I'm a bit clueless
Currently 9st 5lb, would like to lose a stone (possibly a stone and a half but will see how I feel at a stone less). Am only little so I'm not exactly going to look waiflike
Diet fairly healthy but obviously could be improved:
Breakfast: cornflakes with a teaspoon of sugar
Midmorning: cup of tea and chocolate biscuit (at playgroup)
Lunch: sandwich (ham or tuna mayo) or homemade soup and a roll, and yoghurt
Tea (at 5pm with kids): homemade pizza, chicken curry, pasta with pesto, scrambled eggs etc - depends on how big lunch was. Yoghurt/chocolate mousse afterwards.
Evening: previously, chocolate - have had some hints on more healthy snacks on another thread!
Drinks: plenty of cups of tea during the day. Don't really drink much water except 1/2 pint with each meal. Have knocked wine on the head (not that I drank much anyway).
Exercise: walk to town most days (2 miles and a hill involved plus push a buggy); exercise class once a week (can't afford to do it more often).
Congratulations if you haven't fallen asleep yet
Oh I'm still breastfeeding too, not sure if that has an impact - ds2 is 9.5 months so it's not his only food as it were.
I'd rather have a non-drastic change to my diet and it take longer to lose the weight than feel miserable about it, but any thoughts are really welcome!
Am off out now (to my Tae Bo class ) but will check back later. Thank you very much for help and suggestions!
Oh ps not sure if my age is relevant, I'm 36.
