I love these threads and haven't seen one for a while.

I haven't been eating much or very well these last few weeks as the hot weather curbs my appetite so I am hoping to get so inspiration from others and come September I am starting anew with healthy eating .

A cappuccino, a croissant and a nectarine for breakfast.

Several glasses of water and a glass of ACE juice (orange, carrot, and lemon).

We're on holiday and it's hot.

Nothing yet. I'm doing 16:8 intermittent fasting, so no breakfast for me! I've had a black tea and a black decaf coffee though.
Looking forward to some BBQ leftovers for lunch, including some lovely homemade coleslaw. Yum.

B- porridge made with oat milk, blueberries

L- tuna and sweetcorn sandwich on whole meal bread and some cucumber and red pepper on the side

Been quite poorly lately so not eating as much as usual!

Fierenzflower,I had visions of root canals, extractions! Turns out there was a seed embedded in the gum in-between the teeth. She said its badly bruised, take it easy for a few days. Hope you're doing ok.

Breakfast was coffee, orange juice and a banana.

Lunch was three ryvita topped with blueberries and cream cheese, an apple (though some went in the bin as it was really bitter), two TimTams and the last of some salted crisps.

Then I had two turkey and cucumber wraps for tea. I wish I'd eaten more as I'm kinda hungry now 😂

I love reading this post, I've gotten alot of inspiration, thanks all 😁

Might as well note what I've eaten today whilst I'm here:

Breakfast - sautéed potato, red & green peppers & sun dried tomatoes

Lunch - 6 mini Krispy Kreme donuts 😅 and a glass of coke

Dinner - prawn stir fry with rice noodles

A nice balance I would say 😏

rzb · 21/08/2024 21:37

Today went a bit awry.

Coffee in lieu of breakfast.

Courgette and broad bean soup with bread and butter as some sort of elevenses, since I hadn't had breakfast.

Coleslaw with cheese and beetroot in a pre-dinner hungry moment, around 3:30pm.

Trout, beans, peas and new spuds for a late dinner when I was eventually hungry again, setting me up for what I imagine will be another 'coffee in lieu of breakfast' day tomorrow.

coxesorangepippin · 21/08/2024 21:38

Porridge
Chicken burgers and chips

Not sure what for supper

TellySavalashairbrush · 21/08/2024 21:45

please can we stop using the phrase ‘I’ve been bad’ to describe a perfectly normal day’s worth of eating.
