What did you eat today?

[dott]

I have found that writing down what I eat each day helps me to lose weight.

I want to lose 10kg.

I am going to aim to eat three meals a day with no snacks or grazing - usually this means that I will lose weight.

I might try to do one or two pure protein days a week dukan style.

I also have to gently increase my activity levels.

If anyone wants to join me or has any advice you are welcome/much appreciated.

Today I had

-whole grain rice puffs, raisins, oats and milk, grapefruit, bananan

• fish and rice

-smoked mackerel sandwich and a lot of camembert.

Not a great day. Tomorrow I plan to have

• porridge with water
• pulse type of soup and brown rice
• brown rice and fish with cauliflower

Hi all,

Breakfast: Egg mayonnaise
Post-Gym snack: Cheese & chive oatbran muffin
Late lunch: Tuna&sweetcorn mayo with cucumber
Laughing Cow cheese
Dinner: Meatballs in passata based sauce with broccoli

Probably won't have anything else to eat now, possibly a couple more almonds or a nectarine if I feel really hungry later. Felt like bit of a snacky day today, must be more organised tomorrow.

Then went and swam and did 70 lengths which is nearly twice as many as I could manage 5 weeks ago!

Weighed yesterday morning had lost no weight, but I know Im eating healthily so it will come off eventually, I always stall at this point and usually would give up, but this time I refuse to give in...I want to be thin! Besides which I have so far had 5 people say I look really good and have I lost weight...yippee!!

Today I had 2 boiled eggs with turkey ham
tuna, shredded cucumber and lettuce
2 pieces chicken
2 tomatoes
1 diet coke

dott...go make yourself a proper lunch, otherwise you might give in and have something naughty like I did yesterday, eggs is not enough! x

dott...that is a lot of eggs! i did dukan before, one thing i used to have that was yummy was chicken marinaded in 0% yoghurt and curry powder, plus a little bit of onion. i know youre fed up of meat but are you not going to get a bit, erm bunged up on all those eggs!

I have finished off my day by having roast chicken and cauliflower and spinach.
I want chocolate!!!! Not just a little bit though...a whole load of it! Im going to have a hot choc made with skimmed milk and cocoa powder and a bit of sweetener to satisfy my craving!

Woahthere good point, I have a chicken in the oven I will try your recipie tomorrow - kind of you to suggest it.

Well done with your day. Have you tried soya milk? I heard, not sure if it is true, that soya helps reduce appetite.
