January 2014- Let's record what we are eating!

I bet you are not fat. But I know what you mean on the day I don't exercise I feel fat too

Now I really want that BFP! 😉

Let's see....sure I didn't hit my totals yesterday, but here goes:

Lunch: grilled cheese-2 low fat strawberry poptarts

Dinner: 2 c white rice grilled veggies and a donut stick

Snack: raspberry yogurt

sprite zero and crystal light to drink

Today was an off day for me bc we had a volunteer word day at work so I had to eat the lunch provided...but I think I did okay since I finally hit my totals for fat and protein! I drank a carb free zero cal rock star this am, then I had some pasta salad (about a cup), Chinese chicken salad which was mostly cabbage, and a hamburger bun with tomatoes and mixed genes on it for lunch! We painted my office today so I came home and drank a high alcohol IPA to celebrate (I usually sit at a desk, so painting was hard work!)

Not sure what I will have for dinner as the IPA clocked in at nearly 300 cal!!!

This week has been horrible for me as I've been eating out a bit too much. Calories are still around 1500 to 1600 but fat & protein limits are way over ..ugh hope to have better luck next week

Er...yesterday I had about 3250 cals.

I had 2 coffees with whole milk before aerobics. We were visiting DHs aunt fir 1230 so I thought I would wait and eat there. I took 2 cartons of new covent garden tomato and balsamic soup over knowing how low in fat, cals and protein it is, because we were having a BBQ in the evening and I wanted to do my best. Well our aunt was doing a few other bits so we didn't get to eat until about 145 and I had awful stomach pain I was so starving by that point (having not eaten since Friday night sushi at around 830pm!!) I had probably half a cartons worth. She wanted to add cream to it and thank god the cream was off so she couldn't....anyway she made some delicious homemade garlic baguettes I had about half a baguette, there was some other bread too and I had a slice with butter... Then she wanted to feed us chocolate dessert, I declined as I said I was full (I was) and also said we would be eating a lot that evening. She had the cheek to say I had put on weight since she last saw me (I was gutted!!!) I said that actually I weighed the same and she said I looked too thin last time grrrr

Anyway we came home for the BBQ and I had an aspalls cider. Had a few crisps, not many. Whilst we were cooking I made some poppy and sesame seed crackers with Camembert. I probably had about 6 or 7 of those. Opened a bottle of Pinot noir. I had a buffalo and chilli burger, 2 and a half buns, more Camembert, a giant mushroom and some halloumi. Then we had crunchie ice creams! When our guests left we put a film on I was desperate for chocolate and I ate a whole Easter egg! OMG....

So the fat was about 130g and protein about 80g

I am going to the gym soon aiming to burn 1000 cals on the cross trainer (I normally do about 800) - it was all lovely but I can't believe I did this so close to the holiday and also I have been over in cals for most if April. To be honest I'm getting fed up of it all and I know in my heart I will have another boy anyway so why am I bothering. And how awful is that to even think, I will be so thrilled to get PG, that's all I really want now.

11:30am
Rice milk coffee, cheese toasted sandwich.

2:30pm
Vegetarian chikito from Zambero with beans, rice, avocado, sour cream, cheese, corn and chipotle sauce.
+ large flat white.

6:30pm
Bowl of wholemeal penne pasta with creamy sundried tomato pesto sauce.

9:30pm
Peppermint tea & 5 mini Easter eggs and 2 mini crunchies.

2400cals 74g Fat. 😞

Well I am very glad I managed to burn 1000 cals yesterday. I had my usual 2 coffees with whole milk beforehand.

At 12 I gave DS his lunch and I ate a piece of toast with some hummous, some beetroot salad and some pretzels. Also had a bit of nutella with these.

Friends came round at 2 for a BBQ. So from 2 I was snacking on pretzels and drinking white wine. I cant remember what time it was when we ate, I am guessing around 5pm. I had one and a half white bakery rolls (had a small amount of lurpak on half a roll), some spinach and avocado salad, a mushroom and garlic burger (Ocado: Dragonfly Gluten Free Organic Mushroom & Garlic Burger 200g(Product Information)) with some heinz garlic sauce, a giant mushroom and some halloumi. Our friends had brought round some cheesecake and some bakewell tart. I had a massive piece of bakewell tart.

Once DS was in bed and I was watching TV with DH I fancied an ice cream so we had crunchie ice creams at around 8pm. Totally unnecessary but I wanted to eat it.

So I guesstimate this at 2500 cals, 100g fat and 60g protein

Not too happy with myself but at least I managed to stay vegetarian. My friends did wonder why I was eating veggie burgers but I said that we had a BBQ the day before and I had eaten a lot of meat so I didnt feel like eating more meat.

i put my details into my fitness pal yesterday just to test how i would do when i start the le diet and my calories only came to 800,what am i doing wrong??
this is an example of what i would eat if on the diet
morning-coffee
mid morning-toast -butter-weight watchers jam
snack- a few crabsticks
dinner-
cheese and onion wrap and sunbites crisps and diet pepsi
mid afternoon-coffee
tea- quorn peice with brocolli and honey roasted parsnips and diet coke
strawberry jelly
ok i didnt log the coffee and coke in but it still wouldnt bump it up to enough calories as i will be aiming for 1300

what was the protein and fat content? You could have non-diet coke to bump up cals, also I dont know how many slices of toast you were eating but I have hovis seeded bread, if i have 2 slices of that plus butter and jam thats around 350-400 cals.

was the wrap homemade or shop bought?

if you want to give more detail we can try to help.
