A 'what have you eaten today' thread for those trying to lose weight.

[CharleyDavidson]

Through whatever method...

I'm using nutracheck, 1400 cals a day and have had

Bowl cereal and milk
Meatball marinara subway, latte for lunch.
Huge avocado, chicken salad. Few bits of chocolate.

B Bacon (fat trimmed) cougette Spring onion and cherry tomatoes with two eggs
L salad leaves beetroot chickpeas pasta more tomatoes peppers 2skices of roast beef
Snack pink lady and 30g cheese
D smoked salmon 'pate' made with Quark and horseradish and lemon juice, carrot sticks vegan falafels from Tesco two ryvita and home made tomato relish
Snack orange banana and a mini fruity ice cream
Lost three lbs last week aiming for two more this week then it's a stone in last six weeks

Yesterday nothing before bikram yoga.
Then lunch salmon fried in olive oil with courgettes, a whole red pepper sliced and half a pack of samphire (seaweed).

Dinner massive Waitrose salad with edame beans, corn and lots of other veg with a tin of squid in olive oil on top of it.
A cup of cocoa with no milk or sugar but with some gelatin (animal bones) in it.
About 1000 calories I think.

Today nothing so far but giong out to Waitrose with the boys and will buy smoked salmon and a pain rustique (bread) for lunch with butter. Probably salad with tinned fish for dinner later as that seems to be working for me at present as I want to lose half a stone.

I 'started again' today.

B: poached egg, avocado, tomato.

pressed post too soon.

L: pear.

S: rice cakes with walnuts and cream cheese.
Nectarine.

Hurrah and well done to those who start again instead of giving up!

I've had...
3 mini home baked sausage rolls for lunch. 76cals each
Paprika chicken and cous cous for dinner

And a huge danish pastry!

I've walked over 12000 steps at the zoo though and have enough cals for the pastry.

Fruit toast and a skinny latte for brunch
Leftovers for tea, so the exact same paprika chicken and cous cous .

And a Danish pastry. Or two. I'm not shopping at Costco again while dieting... too tempting.

I've downed MFP and done a SW few days to compare I eat less calories on SW than MFP gives me so going to stick to SW and ditch the guilt onwards and offwards. Today shreddies with frozen raspberries and almond milk, lunch was tuna pasta with homemade tomato sauce olives and capers. Snacking on greengages and blueberries
Dinner is chicken pizzaola sweet potato chips (frylight) and salad. Going out for coffee so might be tempted by cake but will try to resist

No breakfast or lunch today - too busy running around doing stuff to remember. (Dance fit class, then making and decorating a birthday cake for a friend's daughter).

Dinner is to be pork steaks, layered with stuffing and roasted.
Served with potato wedges.

Graze shortbread dipper for pudding.

Then my zumba class.

B: greek yog and fruit

L: couple of rice cakes with walnut cheese spread and tomato.

Snacks: some grapes and a biscuit.

D: not sure yet. Have had 362 calories today so about 800 left. Plus did a Core Blast class this morning. Need to eat leftovers really but it's all carbs.

I'm tired and flagging! I'm rachel141269 on MFP and have no friends (didn't actually know you could!) if anyone wants to join me. Today I've had....
2 Ryvita, peanut butter and a banana.
Bag of posh veg, small portion of meat sauce from last nights bolognaise.
Tonight's tea will be chicken with salad. I'll be around 1000 calories.
2 stone down since I started altogether, another stone and a half (ish) to go. Ugh.

2 stones is an awesome loss Loli! You must feel fantastic!

Thanks Sharing. I do but I was very overweight (16 stone 2) so am still big but finally into a size 16. Someone noticed today which was really nice.

My eating in the holidays is poor. In terms of when I eat in particular. In school terms, I skip breakfast and have a piece of fruit at break if I'm hungry. More often though, I don't and I have a salad with fruit and a cereal bar for lunch. Then I have dinner after work. And something to eat later in the eve if hungry.

During the holidays, the 'not having breakfast because I'm hungry' can go on til quite late in the day if I'm busy.

Today I went to my dance fit class.

Then had a lazy day at home, but forgot lunch.
Dinner was at 4pm as I realised I was hungry then. Sweet potato fries and a pork chop with stuffing.

I've had a packet of mini breadsticks and a baileys this eve.

Not a lot of food. Torn between finishing for the day on a (very) low amount of cals, or eating something. But I don't know what I want.

I've been eating porridge for breakfast more or less every day since May. I like porridge but not as much as I did in May. I am ready for a change but I can't be bothered to break an egg in the mornings.

Anyone have any bright ideas for the bone idle?

Hi (MFP butty!). I have those raisin Ryvita, wholenut peanut butter and a sliced banana. Keeps me going for hours and easily done, no faffing!

Overnight oats?

I'm just as hungry at lunchtime if I don't have any breakfast as I would be if I had eaten. So if I'm busy, it doesn't cross my mind. My friend doesn't understand it - she's quite hangry if she hasn't eaten. I'm not actively trying to avoid eating as that messes with my head. I tried 5:2 but it really doesn't suit me. If I only have a few cals in a day to have then I end up not eating anything as I can't decide what's worth eating.

Today has been a disaster as it's a birthday party day.

Pancake for breakfast at a craft place, with toffee sauce.

Fries and a couple of bits of chicken for lunch at MDs
Party food later. Including some lovely cakes.

Have been to zumba this morning.

Tomorrow will be better.

Can I join in? A confessional thread souds right up my street to keep me motivated.

I have about 11lbs to lose but need to tone really in order to not lose boobs again. Jet lagged week so will start exercise at the weekend. Doing 5:2 and 16:8 but only counting calories on fast days

Yesterday:
L: whole little gem lettuce and 1/3 tub of houmous
D: roasted peppers, cauliflower, courgettes dressed in tahini and lemon with mint and side kale salad

Today...

B: avo, tomato and egg.

L: nothing

D: at least a bottle of wine, several fistfuls of dry roasted peanuts, hummus, guacamole, crisps, cheese, bombay mix...

Party food actually involved 3 halves of jacket potatoes with cheese and onion topping. And alcohol.

And some cheesecake.

I'm over for the day, but it could have been a lot worse.
