Curious if anyone else has next to no appetite.

I've had some cheese and crackers. Would kill for a Solero but DH ate the last one.

Not enough. I'm on the 5:2 diet. Today has been tough going

CoodleMoodle · 25/07/2019 18:55

Croissant and yoghurt at breakfast as normal. DC both had Cheerios.

Lunch I shared some beans on toast with DS(1) and we had a couple of strawberries as well. DD(5) had a cheese sandwich, a few crisps and a cheese dipper. Lots and lots of water.

And for dinner we all had (oven) pizza and even more water.

SongforSal · 25/07/2019 19:06

A 'health' type bar, and a small pack of crisps!

The oven is on for Pizza, to have with salad. I'm not even hungry, however after a shite day at work I have just poured a large glass of wine, so I had better eat something!

I always have an appetite but having a fast day today to get rid of the flab so I’ve only eaten a banana and my dinner - which was Tabbouleh!

Roominmyhouse · 25/07/2019 19:11

Heat doesn’t affect my appetite, so I’ve eaten normally too. Breakfast was porridge and a banana, lunch was ryvita with cottage cheese, bresaola, carrot and cucumber sticks plus an apple and yoghurt. Jacket potato with cheese, beans and rocket for tea. Oh and a bit of office birthday cake! 😬

StevieNicksRhiannon · 25/07/2019 19:14

Only food I fancied tonight in this heat:

Frozen bananas blended up with frozen strawberries. Frozen grapes to chew.
[Eaten whilst draped in kingsize bed sheet from freezer (ZipLock bag), and packet of frozen sweetcorn on back of neck.
Detect a theme?
Heavily recommend it all ].

ChristOnAScooter · 25/07/2019 19:20

Iceberg Lettuce and coffee and that is it. Even my kids are just grazing, not really bothered, which for DS1 i am amazed as he is constantly hungry!
Its 34 here right now. Never known it be so hot.

Misty9 · 25/07/2019 19:23

I've pretty normally despite the heat.

B - bowl of rice crispies
L - duck wrap from M&S, salt and vinegar potato snack things, watermelon slices
D - sweet and sour pork with black rice; it was roasting hot making this but the pork was due out today and it was bloody lovely. Mindful chef recipe boxes. Highly recommend Grin

I had my first ever subway, I have also just ordered a salad from my favourite place via deliveroo, laziness wins

GreigLaidlawsbarofsoap · 25/07/2019 19:43

Banana for breakfast
One of those protein pot things from M&S for lunch with an iced coffee
Tea is grazing on baguette, salad, cold meat, and whatever else is in the fridge and doesn't require cooking!

WaxOnFeckOff · 25/07/2019 19:57

I had soup and a roll for lunch and made homemade macaroni cheese with ham and peas for dinner. Then I had a cornetto. Its 30 here in Scotland but the heat doesn't bother me Smile
