junie - i wouldnt have had the popcorn if I knew I would have a cupcake shoved in my face!! It was all fab though :)
weezie - when I first started the diet and went veggie (mon-thur) at the end of October, I lost loads of weight and I was worried I would lose too much hence I have tried to stick at the upper cals. My weight has been stable since January so I think you will be fine as you havent cut back too far, you will likely plateau at some point.

Girls, so you use MyFitnessPlan?
Your meals sound yummy...but only if I add a portion of pastas in my daily menu...500 cal flies...
You must eat really small small portions..like 20 gr?
Yep I use MFP. When I have pasta I have one cup of cooked pasta.
When I have rice or pasta I have 75g uncooked. I fill up on those two or potatoes, bread, wraps and tonnes of veg and sometimes small portions of beans, Quorn, eggs etc if I've enough protein leff.
Purely for reasussarance of my weight and not due to glutonny (she says) I also had a row of DH's chocolate after dinner :)Quote:

Not enough but trying to limit to eating twice a day and as the coffee in so high in everything it probably is a meal?? And I couldn't eat anymore at 4:30! I was full.
mybc - yes I use myfitnesspal. The pastas I eat are generally fresh ones coming in packs that feed 2-4 people (so I am eating approx 300 cals, 10g protein per pasta portion). That way I am eating 1 or 2 portions according to the packet. You can also buy slim pasta that has about 10 calories and 4g protein per portion - if you are having a cheat dinner this can be a saviour for lunch with sweet potatoes and a load of veggies!
I'm counting my veggies as well..I generally eat salads every day...
I made boat eggplant yesterday..cut 1 eggplant in half and filled it with mushrooms, tomatoes, pumpkin and the rest left from the eggplant I sccoped...when I searched on MFP was showing 400 kcal....OMG!
How much is a cup having?
Are there any DONT at all that I should avoid?
And a DO all the way that helps our sways?
Stephk, I know those pastas for 2 portions..I'm generally eating half or even less but still have plenty of kcal when you put some tomato souce homemade or some veggies...
Today : 50 min stepper - 700 kcal burned
12:00 late breakfast salad with goat cheese low fat, cucumber, baby salad, capsicum, radish.
Dinner : Pasta filled with spinach(homemade) + some homemade tomato souce + 2 slice of watermelon (I looooveeee watermelon)
Most probably will have 2 milka crispello (yummy).
