Not enough water, it's been a busy day for me

Today was;

Trek protein flapjack (they are lush)

Homemade carrot and coriander soup, bit of baguette

Baguette and butter
Scoop of ice cream

So definitely not the best nutrients wise. My defence is im due on my period, its jab day, im emotional and exhausted.

I do think though the mounjaro has helped a lot. Before, my 'bad day' would be full of takeaway, fried food, etc. So while today is quite nutrient dense, its still better than before

Plan tomorrow is to eat more fruit and veg! Get some vitamins in me

@jaelato1 not enough food either tbh!

Could have been worse @Slummyslimmer95

Yeah, that doesn’t sound v much at all @jaelato1 are you counting kcals or? I’d be hungry AF on that.

@IReallyNeedThisToWork @cheekysausage123 I had the worst day ever, I'm due to take my jab tonight but I can't be arsed and still was unable eat much. I'll try again tomorrow and take my jab too

@jaelato1 sorry you’ve had such a crap day 😔 Look after yourself.

B: decaf black coffee with regrettable but inevitable chocolate fridge cake while helping DS chop and package it up for the girlfriend and her family

L: leftover butter chicken, protein yogurt

D: peppers stuffed with orzo, tuna, capers and anchovies, green salad, tomato salad, square of dark choc

Was hoping to have a brilliant day today but didn’t get off to a very good start 🫢

Been a bit haphazard lately and weight is creeping up so need to Get A Grip tomorrow 💪

Btw @IReallyNeedThisToWork we are on similar trajectories I think - it’s 66 weeks today since I injected for the first time, so I’m not far behind you 🤜🤛

Today was -

An apple

This lovely chicken rice thing from a food van near my work. Fresh, cooked on site, lean chicken, rice, veg including cucumber, tomato, feta, olives, pomegranates- yum 😋 my favourite

Wasn't particularly hungry but was coming in at 600 calories all day so made myself have some leftover homemade soup and a bit of baguette.
Spoonful of ben and jerrys

Full now and regretting that ben and jerrys even though it was nice. Now, to bed 🛌
