What is a chicken butty? A sandwich?

IHaveBrilloHair · 31/07/2019 22:04

Since the cucumber incident I've looked at a tomato.

Interested in this thread?

I feel guilty eating a 100g bar! Sympathy.
I've had
1 banana
3 brown toasts
Grapes
Large white bun with cheese
Packet crisps
Spoons of chocolate spread
Strawberries
Yogurt
Cheese on toast
And I'm taking a box of malteasers to bed.

^Ive eaten
jam on toast
strawberries
chicken butty
a huge bar of galaxy
1 angel cake
more chicken, corn and mozarella sticks^

I’ve eaten

jam & butter on a white bagel
absolutely no fruit at all
cheese & ham bagel (no salad)
sausage roll
Mini roll
Snack size Lidl Snickers
Turkey steak, potato wedges, corn on cob, cabbage (all cooked in butter)

I could’ve had a Mr Kipling slice but I’m not fond.

I thought my day was a little light on veg but alright really.
Yours is pretty much the same- just buy & eat a smaller bar of Galaxy so you’re not tempted.

Verily1 · 31/07/2019 22:24

Apart from the galaxy that isn’t an awful lot!

raindropsonwindows · 31/07/2019 22:24

I always open these threads hoping that, one day, I am going to be genuinely impressed at how much someone has managed to consume in a day. Instead, I just read them feeling slightly confused but also wondering if the massive chasm between what these posters and I consider to be overeating is why I'm a size 14 and most people I know are much thinner than that.
Today, I had bran flakes with a banana, a smoked mackerel salad and jacket potato with chilli. Which was great. What was less great was the large bar of Cadbury's, some amaretti biscuits I ate just because the cupboard would like neater if they were no infer in there

formerbabe · 31/07/2019 22:28

Such a ridiculous thread.

Food intake is not an indicator of morality. It's just food...you wanted it, you ate it. No need to describe yourself as disgusting.

The world won't implode because you ate a bar of chocolate.

lljkk · 01/08/2019 21:02

Oh dear, google says 390 grams of chocolate is 2100 kcal.

Do you want to go for gold & say how many grams was the angel cake?

Iggly · 01/08/2019 21:06

That’s doesn’t seem that bad OP. I’d be happy to stick to that.

Reminds me of my skinny friends who used to make loud noises about being full when we went out for a meal. They only picked at it and only ate some of the meat. Left the carbs.

Today I ate
Peanut butter slavered on bagel
A Thai curry for lunch
Packet of peanut M&Ms
A packet of crisps
A massive bowl of pasta meant for two Some breadsticks and peanuts
a bowl of ice cream

Plus I’ve had a beer or two.
Way too much. It’s why I’ve put a stone on in the last year.

ListenLinda · 01/08/2019 21:22

I haven’t stopped eating for 2 days, or that’s what it feels like.

2 cereal bars instead of breakfast as the kids were being hooligans.
2 slices if malt loaf, then the one DD left on her plate.
Half a breaded fish, half a packet of couscous and grilled Mediterranean veg.
Half a bag of white chocolate buttons.
A mini snack sausage roll.
3 chicken drumsticks, the rest of the pack of couscous and salad.
A massive bowl of summer fruits with fat free greek yog.

While not overly bad, I feel icky because I feel like i’ve just not stopped all day.

Oh, more coffees than I care to count.

brightbluesky · 01/08/2019 21:37

Doesn't seem that much to me.

Today I've had two boiled eggs and a slice of toast.

Ham salad

Apple
Banana
Handful of raspberries

One of those snack packs of chicken
Half a pack (individual of skinny popcorn)

About five black coffees
Two Diet cokes

This is a good day for me!

Stravapalava · 01/08/2019 22:14

Meh, don't worry about it! You probably won't be as hungry tomorrow. It all evens out in the end.

lljkk · 01/08/2019 22:20

Wednesday OP listed...

jam on toast
Assuming no butter & low cal jam, 150 kcal

strawberries
Assume very few, call it 75 kcal

chicken butty
Assume with butter, at least 500 kcal

a huge bar of galaxy
2100 kcal

1 angel cake
Maybe 150 kcal, she said Mr. Kipling size

more chicken, corn and mozarella sticks
Doesn't sound < 400 kcal.

Assuming only water to drink all day, That's 3375 kcal (at least).
It's a lot.
I wonder if OP ate much less today.

AquaPris · 01/08/2019 22:22

That just sounds like a Tuesday to me....

MorrisZapp · 01/08/2019 22:24

Anyone using the word 'small' to describe their food should be made to leave the country.

Toast
Cereal
Banana
Chicken salad
Small bowl of ice cream

FUCK OFF YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING

Tartyflette · 01/08/2019 22:26

Ok I'll give it a go.
Toast, loads of butter, marmite. Coffee.
Cheese, ham and tomato croissant (large) with more butter and mayo,
Large almond croissant. Tea.
Chocolate pot dessert.
Portion of lamb curry, rice and dal. (Not all that big, tbh. I mean, large enough but not huge))
Coconut magnum
Handful of grapes.
4 squares of Ritter sport marzipan chocolate and glass of milk.
And the night is still young...

This thread is making me hungry.

furrytoebean · 01/08/2019 22:39

I don’t understand.

It’s not loads of food???

I don’t feel like I ate that much today and I have eaten way more than you.

I’ve had

Flapjack for breakfast
Toast and marmite
Then a roast vegetable and beetroot salad with bulgar wheat
Then I ate tomorrow’s roast vegetable and beetroot salad with bulgar wheat
Then I had another flapjack
And for dinner I had tomato soup, Finn crisps and a chocolate lolly for dessert.

My calorie counter says I ate 1800 calories which is bang on target.

No one else seems to be eating any more than that?

ladybirdies · 01/08/2019 22:43

3 packets of crisps
A big scone
Salad with sweet potato
Wine
Red bull
Diet Coke

😳

formerbabe · 01/08/2019 22:45

3 packets of crisps
A big scone
Salad with sweet potato

Is this meant to be a lot of food? Confused I'd be starving.

CakeNinja · 01/08/2019 22:47

Just wondering how the fuck you know when you’re ovulating Confused
I’ve had 3dc and have PCOS, my body does what it wants when it wants, all this stuff is a mystery to me!
Plus, I’ve eaten like a beast today, scrambled eggs and smoked salmon for breakfast - reasonable.
Then.... went on a road trip and ate 3 mini yum yums, bag of hula hoops and some chocolate covered rice cakes.
Picnic lunch - ham baguette, cheese and bread, crisps, token blueberries so my hair and nails don’t just drop off...
Back home - made dinner for dc, waited for dp to return but he texted to say he was popping to the pub after work.
So I took to my bed with a large vodka and a bag of maltesers Grin
Who’s proud of me?!
