Love reading your meal plans.

Today wasn't great but was within calories. I've lost 30lbs since Christmas and am trying mainly to maintain now, although if another 7lbs came off I wouldn't be upset!

Breakfast - 2 slices of wholemeal toast with butter and marmite
Lunch - baguette with Serrano ham and salad
Dinner - pulled beef chilli with salad and half a 500ml bottle of cider (shared with DH).
Snack - 2 squares of dark chocolate, an apple.

[10storeylovesong]

MFP has just told me off for being under my calories so I've topped up with a peanut butter hot chocolate!

[10storeylovesong]

Can I ask what everyone's calorie limits are? Just curious!

[GreenBudgie]

B:Oats,fruit, seeds and yoghurt
L:Egg roll, salad
D:Garden veg, pasta and mozzarella
Treat:A Magnum because husband bought it.
10Storey in theory I can lose slowly on 1400 calories, but am finding posting here is less joyless than using my fitness pal.

[helenlove]

B: low fat yoghurt
L: tuna with low fat mayo ice burg cucumber olives and another yoghurt
S: half a smiley face and half a fish finger and some grapes
D: Thai green curry with veggies and small portion of rice and another yoghurt

Aldi can of alcoholic fruit punch that doesn't specify the type of alcohol but tastes like pimms

Might have an options hot choc now

[CharleyDavidson]

I track with nutrafit as I like it far more than myfitnesspal. More UK friendly for one. And I like the pictures!

If I say I want to lose 2lb a week it gives me 1400 cals a day.
But it does also want you to do enough steps/exercise to earn 200 a day minimum too.

[10storeylovesong]

For the last two weeks I've never gone over my 1200 cal limit. I do a regular circuit class on top, walk the dog every day and am generally active with a three year old. I've not lost a 1lb! I didn't expect it to happen overnight but did expect to see a little change!

[10storeylovesong]

Thanks for the pointer to nutracheck though. Just downloaded it and it does look a lot more user friendly!

Bizarrely it gives me more calories on the same input data - little bit worried as not losing with the ones I have already!

[JemimaMuddledUp]

Today I have eaten:

Breakfast - fat free Greek yoghurt, muesli, blueberries
Lunch - chicken breast, new potatoes, carrots, green beans followed by raspberry sorbet

Dinner will be Spanish tortilla with a flatbread and salad

Hoping to come in between 1200-1400 calories

[CharleyDavidson]

I struggled to lose weight this week on the 1400. In fact I even put ON over a lb. But I was doing a LOT more exercise than normal and my friend suggested it could be water retention.

I have had 2 days off the exercising as the classes I like only run from Tues to Fri, and I've dropped what I put on as well as an extra half lb.

If you aren't losing, can you tell a difference in your clothes? Despite not losing a lot here I'm in a pair of trousers I just couldn't get on me 3 weeks ago.
