Sooooo hard to skip breakfast when your house smells of freshly baked spelt and rye bread every other morning! I love feeding my boys healthy homemade bread but wish it didn't smell so good! :)

Welcome Junie - always great to have new ladies posting on this thread
I was a bad girl on the diet over the weekend - it was Memorial day here so weekend lasted 3 days AND I had AF so wanted to eat everything in sight. I'm going to try to be better this week !
Breakfast - coffee + creamer
Lunch - 6 oz of blueberries, a mango coconut chia seed squeeze snack, 1.75 cups of Trader Joe's Japanese fried rice (carrots, edamame, tofu, seaweed)
Dinner - 1.75 cups of TJ's fried rice, 2 mini homemade spinach artichoke crescent bites, 1/2 bottle of wine
1508 calories, 31 grams of fat, 33 grams of protein
AF is coming soon and I can definitely tell. Strong cravings for sweets, grumpy, hungry- a perfect mix for the LE diet! LOL
Yesterday I had a dinner out with friends at a tapas place so I was at the upper end of cals and over for fat but I'm fine with it.
9:00- Coffee w/skim and sweetener
12:00- leftover pasta and weight watchers spaghetti, 2 pieces of white toast with two marshmallows, a few chips, 1 granola bar
20:00- Ensalada Rusa (Spanish Russian potato salad), chorizo in white wine, 0,4 Warsteiner beer
1517 cal, 63 fat, 52 protein
yesterday:
5.20am - coffee with whole milk
12.00pm - 3 white crusty rolls, bit of lurpak on one, some brie on another and left the third one plain. Carton of new covent garden tomato and balsamic soup. Leftover salad and avocado from the BBQ.
3.45pm - some almond breeze chocolate flavour milk, a banana and a punnet of graze sticky chocolate pudding (its a small amount of raisins and chocolate)
8.00pm - some fresh fusilli pasta with provencale vegetable sauce, veggies cooked in garlic and frylight (leeks, babycorn, mushrooms and courgette). A third of a parmesan and garlic rustic wheel. I successfully gave chicken to my mum and DH without eating any myself! My mum made dessert of low fat strawberry yoghurt with some strawberries and low fat creme fraiche.
approx 2080 cals, 57g (25%) fat, 61g protein
stephk - forgot to mention, in the US if you eat any kind of sushi while pregnant (even from safe restaurants) people look at you like you are crazy. It was literally my biggest craving so I didn't care. I had a HUGE aversion to cooked meats while pregnant so smoked salmon rolls became a good way for me to get healthy fats in. It's funny because there is a listeria outbreak in the US now from hummus (but none from fish) yet any OB would tell you hummus is completely fine but avoid sushi. So stupid!
I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of LE!
Breakfast - coffee + creamer
Lunch - 1.5 cups of Japanese fried rice (edamame, carrots, tofu, seaweed), 6 oz of blueberries, coconut mango chia squeeze pouch
Dinner - I'm fixing a Mexican feast, very excited! A quesadilla made with 2% mexican cheese, baked tortilla chips, 4 tbsp of low fat guacamole lightened up with greek yogurt, 2 tbsp of light sour cream, 4 tbsp of pineapple salsa, a fresh pomegranate margarita on the rocks (the best part) :)
