Hey guys! Anyone still on the LE diet? Today is the beginning of week two for me! I’d love to keep sharing meal ideas with everyone! [emoji16] I’m getting ready to head to the grocery store now but I will come back tonight to post some of what I’ve been eating so far. [emoji4]
PS: Happy Mother’s Day everyone! [emoji3590]

Hi. I'm on LE diet for some weeks. It's going quite alright. Of course this weekend I cheated a lot. But oh well it was mothers day.
I started to eat vegetarian sushi and I like it! Last week I made lentil burgers, they turned out really good. I like sweet potato, the kids not that much. Apart from that we eat vegetarian chilli or tacos, vegetarian pizza, and I love some of the vegetarian meat you can buy here. Wishing everyone good luck with their sway. Ttc time is getting closer!
Thanks for the reminder about potatoes!! I love baked potatoes, both sweet potato & regular. My DH really LOVES loaded baked potatoes, so that’s actually a good idea for something that we could both eat one night! Plus I believe I have a recipe on Pinterest for how to make baked potatoes in the instant pot! [emoji4]
Also, what is vegetation sushi?! I love seafood EXCEPT for sushi — I just can’t do raw fish, and I’ve tried! I love almost all vegetarian food though, so maybe vegetarian sushi is something I could try too!
I posted in another diet thread with what I’ve been eating so far. I’m going to try to copy the link to it here — hopefully it works! [emoji1695]
Let's record what we are eating to help each other 2020

Hey. Sorry for answering so much later. It's just always something going on.
I saw the other thread. It's great. I'm just afraid I'm of no help because I eat the same things over and over again! Lol! Plus I try to not count too much, since I get too control freaky when doing it.
DH loves Sushi, but I don't eat fish so vegetarian sushi. It's pretty much just the rice with veggies inside but still, I like it. It's nothing "heavy" so I felt great after eating it. (With avocado it even has some fat).
Maybe I will revisit the other thread when I tried a few other meals. Good luck with your sway. 😊
Hi all,
I'm new to the forums and hoping to sway pink. I've been eating vegetarian for the last few months and have tried incorporating the LE diet the last 5 weeks or so. I'm still breastfeeding my 19 month old so have 3 meals a day as I'd get too hungry skipping breakfast. I eat breakfast around 9:30, lunch at 12 and dinner at 5:30. I do have a weakness for cheese and chocolate. I can't have chocolate in the house at all anymore otherwise I will just eat the whole packet- I cannot stop at just a couple of squares.
Some of my favourite meals are veggies (green beans, mushrooms, zucchini, capsicum, chilli) with noodles (either rice noodles or a small amount of hokkien noodles)- I also sometimes add a little tofu or edamame if I do need some protein, baked potatoes, eggplant and lentil salad, veggie soup, low fat mushroom pasta, fried rice (I just my serve in a separate pan so I don't have the same amount of oil and can leave out the bacon) and veggie curry.
Hi and welcome! [emoji16] Have you gone vegetarian for swaying purposes or just a general lifestyle change?Quote:

For dinner I’ve had a serving of shredded cheese melted over pasta or melted over refried beans on a tortilla, I’ve had grilled cheese with tomato or some other type of soup for lunch, and I’ve even had just a plain old slice of Muenster cheese with everything flavor Ritz crackers along with lunch or dinner! [emoji23] Also low fat cream cheese on bagel thins, garlic & herb goat cheese over light multigrain English muffins with tomatoes, and Laughing Cow brand cheese wedges spread over chips/crackers/English muffins. I just can’t do it without cheese... I’m very happy to fit it into the diet where I can! [emoji16]
Tonight I am going to try butternut squash noodles, I think! Thanks for the reminder about edamame — I LOVE the stuff! I’ve never cooked it at home before, only had it out in restaurants... any tips for making it at home?

I love edamame too, they are quite high in protein if you need to make up a bit of protein. I buy a frozen packet from the supermarket which has cooking directions on the packet- boil or microwave and then toss them in to what I’m making.
Love the ideas for incorporating cheese!! I will have to borrow some of these.
Awesome, thanks! Weirdly enough I was low on protein the last two days and had to find something to bring it up with dinner. These would help! Lol. I’m doing a grocery run tonight so I’m going to look for some in the frozen section! [emoji1695]Quote:

Hi ladies,
Joining you if I can :-).
I am also trying to conceive a baby girl after 3 boys and I am on the LE diet. Been on Dr Papa's diet for 2 years (about a year before conceiving DDS3, and back on it when DS3 for 6 months... until I found Atomic;s LE diet about 2 months ago... so switched to it. Trying to get better I it, cause I am learning to count calories and understand the whole protein/fat etc thing... hope I'm getting better.
Hardest part is staying away from chocolate... I do have a cheaty everynow and then, but I am trying to limit it as much as possible. A little ice cream at the beginning, but no more. Thing is, weight is still dropping, and finding it ahrd to keep it.
I am eating lots of veggies, chicken every now and then, prawns sometimes, but mainly pasta, wholegrain bread, mozzarella cheese, unsated butter, veggie pizzas, lots of rice (but white unfortunately - don't have the brown one at the moment - no grocery (confinement)), some yogourt but not that much... so listening to all your ideas:-)
No breakfast... lunch at 12, fruit and toast at 3, dinner at 6... trying to cut the 3pm meal, but losing too much weight...But nothing till at least 12am except a coffee
And lots of luck for a baby girl...
