What do you eat in a day?

[UnlimitedCake]

5 foot 4 and I weigh 10 stone. I want to ideally get down to 9 stone as that is where I am most comfortable. I am in my mid 40s and aware that if I go too thin my face will suffer. My BMI is in the heathy range and I am a size 12 on the bottom and 10 on top.

What I have eaten today -

Breakfast - Two pieces of Wholemeal toast with one banana and butter

lunch - one tin of tuna with cucumber, tomatoes, one boiled egg, a few grapes and a spoon of hummus

A treat - 4 celebration chocolates

For tea I will have a similar salad with lettuce, tuna, cheese, tomatoes and hummus.

I bought some slimfast shakes but they are rank 🙈

I also make sure I do over 10k steps a day, average is 15k.

I've actually had less food than usual today, but I feel like maybe the milkshake and extra cheese has filled me up more? So look at increasing your fat/protein intake perhaps?

I'm also a size 10/12 and struggling to lose the tummy since turning 40. I have 8 pounds to lose to feel more confident.

My usual day is something like;

Breakfast - two slices of peanut butter toast

Lunch - cheese sandwich

Snack - biscuit or yoghurt

Dinner - home made vegetable curry with rice.

I definitely eat too much bread and my portion sizes are probably too big too. I used to be able to eat anything so reducing it is proving difficult.

I do very little exercise to be honest.

Just seen you do like eggs. Sorry. Was skim reading before. Just add more eggs and meat/fish/organ meats/cheese/milk I'd say. Also, squirty or double cream can make fruit into a great treat which is more filling and not as bad as choc/crisps etc.

I tend to walk anything from half a mile to a few miles a day and sometimes go swimming or something, but walking is my main activity. I suppose certain activities would build muscle though, which weighs more than fat, so you would need to account for that if you were looking for a certain number on the scales?

Breakfast - 2 x best of both toast and lurpak

Lunch - Small ham and cheese pannini

Dinner - Wagu steak mince, carrots, peas, swede in gravy, with savoy cabbage.

Lemon Muffin

love food, hate exercis, too fat, too lazy but happy

Breakfast- pack of cocoa belvita breakfast biscuits

Lunch- White primula and Cucumber roll
Salt and vinegar crisps, Grapes, A yoghurt and a meringue (random I know, but they need using up....usually have a couple of biscuits!)

Tea- Battered fish fillet, homemade wedges, peas
Will probably have an orange then a choc ice for dessert.

Not the healthiest i guess, keen to improve it/cut down abit as need to lose weight to get in a bridesmaids dress in a couple of months time 😬

Waffles with maple syrup and strawberries.

Korean toast with ketchup and mustard.

Cheesy doritos
6 chocolate hobnobs

Dinner will probably be garlic lemon chicken and rice
Toffee puds with baileys ice cream

Buttered popcorn and Malteasers for a movie tonight.

5'9 9st9

67kgs and 5ft6. Would really like to lose weight but struggling and still look pregnant 18 months after birth of dc4.

Breakfast - porridge, banana, raspberries, peanut butter
lunch - salmon, pesto, giant cous cous, cabbage
snack - apple
dinner - will be chicken and veg

I used to find it easy to maintain the weight I wanted but it now seems nothing works.

I’m Obese and am seriously trying to lose weight.

Today - 3 Ryvita with low fat spread and marmalade.

Lunch - 2 eggs scrambled with some grated cheese.

Dinner - medium jacket potato with side salad and sliced ham.

Three cups of tea and 1 coffee - all with a small spoon of sugar.

I’m trying to diet but I’m constantly hungry during the day

Breakfast
soreen uplift bar

lunch
3 vegan bao buns and a side salad and a yoghurt

evening meal
new potatoes, broccoli and baked cod with chilli and ginger with 2mochi balls for dessert

I'm getting over a virus so quite fatigued which leads to sugary snacks in an attempt to get some energy between lunch and bedtime, in lieu of a nap. I'm 5'8" and 8.5 stone. I've had little appetite while not well so this probably isn't typical.

No breakfast but lots of cups of lovely tea.

Lunch was a carrot, half a cucumber, cherry tomatoes, mange tout and plenty of a tub of hummous - maybe about a third.

Dinner was salmon with egg noodles, pepper, broccoli, green beans and more mange tout.

Snacks were chocolate Brazil nuts, 2 chocolates from a Christmas box and a fererro chocolate bar.

Exercise - 1.5 hours walking (school runs) plus general running about to and from shops etc. 15000 steps.

Loads 🙈

Porridge with a banana
Piece of bday cake
A bacon sandwich
A twirl (a single one!)
Fish cake, chips and veg
More cake

Im working from home today which always means I eat too much.

I’m a similar size and weight to you though half an inch taller and a decade older.

A small bowl of Greek yogurt with a couple of tablespoons of bran flakes and blueberries.

Grilled halloumi with salad, I made some little flat breads, I just had one it’s the size of my hand. It’s 1 cup greek yogurt, 1 cup self raising flour and a pinch of salt, mix, ball, flatten and then in air fryer for about 5 mins.

Homemade meatloaf of pork mince, stuffing mix, onion, mustard, apple sauce, bovril, Worcestershire sauce and garlic, mashed spud, cabbage, carrots, peas, cauliflower, gravy

I walked for an hour today, I would be so hungry is that’s all I had eaten plus in winter I find hot food more filling. I have relatively small portions.

Typical work day for me is:
B soya Greek yogurt (125g) berries and 45g protein granola
S raw carrot, celery, cucumber and either hummus or a babybel light
L homemade veg soup and a roll with some protein, or salad with tuna and new potatoes, scrambled egg and smoked salmon on bagel and an alpro fruit gogurt
S apple and something sweet, usually those mini packs of biscuits that are less than 100 calories
D usually homemade (apart from pizza once a week or sometimes frozen breaded fish and oven chips), I tend to only eat chicken, salmon or vegetarian, lots of veg and always rice, pasta or potatoes!
often a banana somewhere in the day too depending on when I exercise.
size 12 on the bottom, 10 on the top, heavier and larger than I’d like to be (thanks peri menopause), I average 10-15k steps a day and aim for 3 weights sessions a week.
i eat a lot! Struggling to loose weight and maintain exercise levels without being constantly hungry but also haven’t gained any for 6 months.

I'm your height and the weight you aim for, I've reached this weight over time and stayed there for 5 years, I'd be happier if I was 8.5st but I'm in my 50s and just pleased I'm not piling it on. I eat low carb all the time so
Morning is gluten free bread/almond bread toasted with scrambled eggs
Lunch is a chunk of nice cheese, saucisson/fuet, salad, mixed nuts, and
Dinner is chicken or steak with green veg and a rich creamy sauce.
I walk 40 minutes a day.

Loving this . Wise food choices . Do you follow prof Tim Spector?

Breakfast - mostly wholegrain cereal, about once a week a yogurt and fruit and toast

am & pm snacks - one biscuit, sometimes a cake

Lunch - 3 crackers, cheese and tomato followed by fruit, or a sandwich or soup and slice bread then fruit, egg on toast with mushrooms or jacket potato

If I'm hungry late afternoon, I aim for fruit but sometimes end up eating crisps

Tea is very variable, salmon and veggies, stir fry, pasta, veggie chilli, risotto, something out of freezer with veggies. I'm can't eat too much in the way of potatoes, rice or pasta so tend to have about 50-75% of what everyone else in house is eating

I'm 5'3" and weight under 8st. I tend to walk 15-90 mins (sometimes this is hill walking) every day, at work a lot of rushing around and an element of lifting, I do all food shopping on foot after work which I carry up a hill at some pace, and I do a couple of exercise classes a week.

Yesterday was X2 scrambled eggs, half a punnet of raspberries and a protein yogurt for breakfast after the gym

Lunch was chicken and rice with tzatziki and tomato and cucumber salad. For dinner I had Dd's leftover pizza, a bag of hula hoops and a mini cheese.

Constantly trying to find a workable diet for me and loose a bit of weight. Current plan is trying a more substantial lunch then a small snack type dinner as I find I'm less hungry in the evening but struggle to function in the day doing school pick up etc when hungry

Breakfast: 40 - 80g porridge oats with almond milk and 2 tsp sugar - 250 - 350 kcal
Lunch: (office) Usually a ready meal at 275 - 475kcal, protein yogurt - 96kcal
Snack: Crisps - 75 - 99kcal
Dinner: Home cooked meal - 550 - 850kcal
Dessert: anything I fancy at around 250 - 350 kcal

I am 5'11 though and working at around 1800kcal a day so I mix of the above to get to that amount of calories.
