What have you eaten today?

[Wouldloveanother]

Pure nosiness!

Me:
Marmite on toast for breakfast
2 kiwis, a banana, bar of chocolate for lunch (cravings )
just had a packet of crisps
Will have tuna and med veg risotto for dinner

We've had a day out today and I've not stopped eating! Absolute sugar fest!

Breakfast - bagel with cream cheese, avocado and smoked salmon. Small bar dark choc

Lunch - chicken, flat bread and rice. Massive two scoop vanilla and chocolate sugar ice cream cone

Lemon cannoli (small)

Bag Maltesers

Toasted vegetarian filled roll

Churros

Salted mixed nuts

• Cup of tea.
• A roll with leftover dhal (homemade, from dinner last night), some smoked mackerel, cherry tomatoes, lightly pickled red onions and cheddar. It made zero sense as a meal, but was delicious.
• Grilled chicken thigh, steamed rice, Nigerian red stew, spinach salad.
• Lots of water.

Oh, and a large glass of Pinot Grigio! 😁

I do CrossFit/weightlifting 6 days a week and am currently doing quite a few CrossFit competitions so I'm sticking fairly strictly to my macro plan which involves weighing everything and a lot of protein.

1 whole egg and 2 egg whites scrambled, two pieces of grilled turkey bacon and half an avocado.

Salad of mixed leaves, spinach, peppers, cucumber, half a chicken breast, houmous and a (fresh) apricot diced up.

Greek yoghurt with blueberries, raspberries and a mix of chia seeds, flaxseeds etc.

2 banana 'scones' (4 ingredients - banana, whole rolled oats, honey and tahini).

Chicken breast with a ton of green beans and broccoli and some roasted courgette, peppers and tomatoes.

1 banana protein pancake with Greek yoghurt with some dark chocolate chips mixed through it and a handful of blueberries.

3 litres of water.
1 protein shake (fruity vegan one made with water, I hate the whey/milk based ones 🤢).
1 can of FitAid after the gym.

That sounds .. nice 🫤

@Cherchezlaspice

Nigerian red stew sounds interesting, what's in that?

no breakfast

Lunch 12
3 hand reared pork sausages with mustard mash, red onion, red wine gravy.

Waffle with banana, banoffee ice cream and Dulce de Leche..

Then got home at 9

Big Mac and Diet Coke

B: honey nut shredded wheat & skimmed milk

Lunch: cheese on toast w/Worcestershire sauce (one slice), mr Kipling cake, monster munch.

D:2spoons of mac and cheese

Snack: after eight mouse

1hour of exercise

It’s more of a sauce than a stew (you have it over rice or another starch). Staple in any Nigerian household, the joke is that we always have stew in the fridge. 😊

Spicy, contains onions, bell peppers, tomatoes and chillies (usually scotch bonnets). Often contains chicken, but can be made with meat or fish, or just as it is (it’s very easy to make vegetarian). If that sounds like your sort of thing, I’m happy to share a recipe.

Breakfast: A pear
Lunch: Sardines on toast, fruit salad
Dinner: Chicken and spinach curry (homemade) and rice, Club biscuit
Drinks: 9 cups of tea, 2 glasses of iced tea, 1 espresso martini
Post-run snack: Wasabi peas

Overnight oats with almond milk, honey, strawberries and almond flakes

Greek salad

Blueberry muffin nakd bar

Noodle and veg stir fry In a peanut sauce

Had an earlier dinner than usual so may have a cup of tea and toast later

A potato cake with butter before the gym
Banana pancake with berries and cream after

Leftover home made guacamole with blue corn tortilla chips, a few prawns and some melon for lunch

Fish and chips with mushy peas just now, since it's been a long day and the trains were a nightmare. I may have some ice cream later 😊

A good day today.

Breakfast: Protein shake and a plum.
Lunch: Tuna pasta salad.
Dinner: Sweet chilli chicken noodles.

A bad day is about 6000 calories. But I'm on the healthy wagon at the moment.

banana pancakes 🤤 can I ask how you make them?

todays been slightly better

B- cereal
S- 2 oatcakes, cheese and a kiwi
L - Jacket potato with tuna and sweetcorn Mayo
S - half a tin of baked beans left over from DD’s dinner

my dinner options are fish and chips from the chippy (our usual Friday treat!) or crumpets with peanut butter and yoghurt with blueberries for pudding.

Full fat greek yoghurt with strawberries raspberries and blueberries.
Boiled egg, two rashers of bacon, half an avocado.
Bolognese sauce topped with cream and cheese sauce.
Several cups of tea and a glass of wine, having cannelloni for dinner later.

@Wouldloveanother I can!

I got them originally from a WW recipe which was literally just a mashed ripe banana mixed with a beaten egg and fried.

It's still OK just like that but I found it a bit rubbery and it tended to stick, so I add a teaspoon of plain flour and one of cornmeal plus a pinch of salt and some baking powder so it's more fluffy and more like a proper pancake - it takes a few minutes to fry in a bit of oil and I turn the heat off after I've turned it over so it stays a bit squishy in the middle.

According to Nutracheck my version including a dollop of single cream and a decent handful of berries is still only about 275 calories so far from disastrous 😀

Two soft boiled eggs - lunch

no breakfast as not hungry. Cup of tea.

dinner - rice and some side dishes.

bottle of Prosecco.

Today I've had:
Porridge with ground flax, chia, cinnamon and apple.
Slice of wholemeal bread with a bit of peanut butter.
Tin of tuna, tomatoes, pepper, celery.
Home made chilli, brown rice.
About to have a cup of tea and chocolate biscuit.
also had 3 small glasses of wine since 5pm

3 rich tea biscuits
4 salt crackers
1 small cold chicken breast with some boiled potatoes.
A small cup of cranberry squash

My stomach hasn't been right for about 3 months, I can't eat much otherwise armageddon comes galloping directly out of my arse. With no warning. 😞

That sounds miserable Watermelon have you seen the GP?

Aw thanks @Wouldloveanother yes I have, waiting on the routine tests. It's so unpredictable though, I get anxious having to be too far from a loo!

On the plus side I have lost 8 lbs, which I can definitely afford to lose.
