What have you eaten today?

[madein1995]

I'm trying to lose weight (need to drop 8 stone eek!) and find that writing down what I've eaten and knowing others can see it is a good motivator. I lost weight with SW but gained it all back and more, so I'm going to do it alone by cutting down on the fizzy pop, sugar, only 1 treat a day, more fruit and veg, walking more just being healthier really. I'm quite inactive atm ut start a new job in a fortnight so that will help as I'll be running round after kids and walking a mile to and from the train station to work each day.

Anyway, today is

B - black coffee
L - beef, roast potatos, carrots, yorkshire puddings, cauli, gravy and 1 of those mini cheesecake pots
D - will e 3 jacobs crackers with cheese and some lemonade if I fancy it. May have 2 scoops ice cream too

That will take me to just about 1200 calories

B- bulletproof coffee

L- spinach with garlic olive oil, 2 rashers of bacon and lots of cheddar cheese on top!

D- I'm at DP's mercy as I'm working but will probably be chicken breast with vegetables or salad.

I've got a lot left to lose too, but I'm finding it better breaking it down into half stone targets :) good luck!

B - Greek yogurt with strawberries
L - w/meal pitta with humous, half an avocado, tatziki, cherry toms, salad
D - will be roast chicken thighs, asparagus and new potatoes with mint

I also had some popcorn and flatbreads with more humous as a snack.

I will also be consuming some wine!

10am

Bacon and black pudding sandwich - very naughty because I'm a low carber

I'm starving right now and I'm really tempted to have a Chinese later

I'm doing SW. Today I've had:

B - 2 weetabix and milk.
L - sushi pack
D - was meant to be baked fish, new potatoes and peas but I feel dreadful and my throat is sore so I haven't had any thing yet.

I'd really like a big greasy pizza! But will prob settle for a cupa soup.

B - porridge, plain yoghurt, 2 boiled eggs, coffee
L - roast beef, 2 roast potatoes, 1 Yorkshire pudding, lots of veg, water
S - will be a ham and tomato sandwich

No snacks so I'm pleased

B: poached egg on toast w avocado.
L: Greekish salad. Coconut water.
S: cauliflower base pizza w roast pumpkin.

Total cal: 1057.

B. Greek yogurt
L. Haloumi beetroot and tomato salad
D. Burger (no bun) salad.
A few Pringles and a glass of wine.

Breakfast - toast and peanut butter

Ran a 5k race 😃 So mushroom pasta and a slice of garlic bread with friends for lunch

Chicken breast in oven and will have chicken and mango salad for dinner

Ok, had the ice cream and 2 chocolates (were v. small) and is 1245 calories which is over what I ideally wanted to have but not too badly

We're on holiday by the sea and I'm pregnant so not as healthy as usual but:
B - toast and marmalade
Lunch - full English
Snack - Daim milkshake and homemade fruitcake
Dinner - homemade chilli and rice and millionaire shortbread for pud

Had a settling in session at work which was good, very busy and active and estimated burned 400 calories as was on feet constantly, playing, chasing, lifting kids etc. Great fun (much more than the gym), so think I'll slim down when I start work.

B - 2 slices wholemeal toast with light butter, coffee with semi skimmed milk and 1 sugar

L - 2 homemade beef burgers (lean mince) in 2 wholemeal rolls with ketchup. Ice cream (small portion)

D - wholemeal roll and chicken tikka filler.

1270 calories, just realised that's a lot of bread, will do better tomorrow!
