What did you eat today weight loss thread

[DeliveredByKiki]

Partially inspired by last years epic “what did you eat today” thread, anyone up for restarting one specifically in this section as a way of holding ourselves to account? No matter what your method of weight loss is....

I’m WI tomorrow for the first time in a month and know it won’t be pretty, going to ease myself in with 16:8 for a week and then adjust to either 1200kcal a day or back to 2 fast days a week. Anticipate having about 10lbs to lose.

Today was terrible but I did a transatlantic flight across several time zones so eating was buggered - I’ll start properly tomorrow!

I'm losing weight calorie counting, and using MFP to track what I eat, my calorie allowance is 1200 a day (I'm just over 5ft tall) but I try and stick to 1000 although I will use some of the extra 200 occasionally. I also don't eat carbs such as bread potatoes pasta or rice after lunch, plus I don't eat at all after 6pm.

Today I've eaten the following:

Breakfast- 35g oats made up with water, half a banana, 1tsp of choc pot (14 calories)

Lunch- weight watchers tomato soup, 1 warburtons wholemeal sandwich thin.

I try and plan everything I'll eat the day before to help keep me on track.

Dinner- chicken breast, rocket, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, 1 tbs sweet chilli sauce and 1 TVs sour cream, sugar free jelly.

Snacks - 4 Jaffa cakes.

As delicious as the sweetcorn soup was I think it gave me an upset stomach . I've never had it before and I never get an upset stomach so I can only put it down to that.

Breakfast: boiled egg
Lunch: avo and one sliced tomato on lo cal Brown bread
Dinner: home made chicken Korma with spinach and one tablespoon of Brown rice.
Snacks: homemade popcorn (about 3 cups); coffee (semi milk and half tsp sugar); celery sticks, an orange, a few walnuts, cup of roobios chai tea, another coffee

And I could still eat my own arm off

I was on set all day and exhausted so it went horribly pear shaped after lunch (which was a vegan breakfast bowl) and I ate a mandarin, massive handful or two of pretzels, bag of salted crisps, slice of bread and jam, some buffal cauliflower, handful of peanuts and TEN Oreo cookies

Lots of coffee

Then a Red Bull and Lara bar on the long drive home

Kept to my 8 hours though

This is the last day of Christmas break for me.... healthy eating starts tomorrow.
Some fruit, water melon, grapes, plum.
2cups of tea
3 beers .......

4 pieces crusty bread
6 Christmas chocolates
Apple pie and cream
pasta bake for supper with lots of grated cheese and mayo.
Several glasses of white wine
However, because I monitor what I eat carefully in the week I figure I can have a bit of a blow out every now and again.

I am was would be a better term right now a slimming world maintainer after loosing 4.5 stone however i had 6 weeks off due to birthdays / xmas etc.

First weigh in took place on 30th & had gained 10lbs..fucking 10lb!

Anyway restarted on 30th & this mornings weigh in is showing 5lb off so on we go!

Lunch - two eggs, grilled bacon, two pieces of small toast
Dinner - homemade flatbreads with chicken slouvaki and wedges with Greek salad
Today
Same breakfast as yesterday
Dinner will be sweet chilli sausage and sweet potato tray bake which I can’t wait for!
I spent most of yesterday prepping enough soup for the rest of the month with my new morphy Richards soup maker, 15 soups made in just over an hour!

Does the soup maker blend also? I use my vitamix to blend my soups after cooking them at the moment.

Today is vegan cream of broccoli soup with oatcakes then a glass of oatly milk for bed. Drinking about 5 litres of water with frozen lemon/lime in.

Weighed myself this morning about 6 times completely naked before accepting the weight of 10 stone!!

That's half a stone gain since last January and ideally I would like to be just above 9 stone.

Breakfast: apple and 4x coffee with skimmed milk
Lunch: porridge sachet with skimmed milk and Coke Zero
Dinner: roast chicken with sweet potato and salad

Am planning a short run as well.

Now just have to keep myself away from the kids leftovers...
