Ladies - there appears to be an active Oct/Nov thread up and running (that possibly took over from this one) for chat and keeping a track on what's being eaten - do you fancy coming onto that one so we can all keep each other motivated (although this thread will still be great for ideas too!)??

Just too hungry at the mo!!!! Wasn't concentrating xx
No breakfast
Lunch - 2 pieces of toast
Dinner - Weight Watchers creamy chicken and mushroom meal, afters 2 snack size Whirly bars from Asda.
Supps - Vitex 1600mg, folic acid 400mg and 75mg of dispersible aspirin.
Drinks - I'm going to enjoy 2 glasses of 50ml Lime Smirnoff and Diet Cherry Coke. Plus I sneaked in a bit of apple juice before I realise it wasn't allowed.
Do weight watchers meals count as Low Everything?
What about pot noodles? Low in nutritional value? High in carbs though... Does that matter?
I stay away from pot noodles but for slightly different reasons. They are very high in salt which I don't really track anymore but also very high in fat I believe. This diet is high in carbs so that isn't a problem. I think a pot noodle once in a while would be absolutely fine but they aren't particularly filling. I find it helps to treat your calories as money. You have to find the best value - i.e as much food as you can - and I often find foods that are lower in cals and fat and are more substantial too. Nothing's off limits except perhaps oats. Weight watchers ready meals are also fine once in a while but I always wait until the 2ww. However the only one I've found that fits into the daily limits okay if the roasted veg arriabiata. Also Morrisons do a low fat frozen pizza which has 375 cals per half but is high in protein at 16.1g. Another once in a while meal!!

Liquorice - I know good for DH but for me too?
And what part of the diet does DH need to do?
Any other food suggestions?
Thank you!
Hi everybody. I'm new here but I have been lurking awhile. I started my le diet today and I don't think I did very good.
9:00 CL and a yoplait lite.
12:00 activia with fiber.CL
1:30 fiber one brownie and a bottle of aquafina
3:30 another fiber one brownie and a cup of plain corn flakes
Total so far today
480 calories
500 mg sodium
13 g protein
10 g fat
I feel that I never should have had the second brownie. Lol. But I work 8-5 so my options felt limited at work. I just couldn't think of anything to eat that I could pack easily. I have gotten some really good ideas from this thread so hopefully I can do better tomorrow. Do you guys think my spacing of foods was bad? I feel like I ate stuff to close together. Any advice would be great!
What a great thread to get ideas from!
Today I had...
no breakfast
bowl of frosted shredded mini wheats with skim milk at noon
One bite of my son's hot dog, crust from 2 slices of pizza and a cinnamon raisin bagel with light cream cheese. (Also had diet coke, water and CL to drink)
I am so bad at this!
