Yay! We need a thread like this!
Here's what I had yesterday:
Breakfast - coffee, CL
Lunch - a piece of salt-free bread and a yogurt
Afternoon - peppermint tea, CL
Supper - pasta (2 servings:oops:) mixed with 1 TBSP low fat ricotta and parm
Snack - peppermint tea, raspberries and some Nibs (red licorice) :oops:
Not a bad day - I was a bit above with protein - about 46g, but my sodium was only about 530mg! My total calories were 1200.
Yesterday.:
breakfast peppermint tea
Lunch 2 pieces of homemade toast with strawberry jam and some strawberries
Dinner pasta with mushrooms, courgettes, leeks, butter and Parmesan and a muller light yogurt
I don't track calories etc so hopefully am in ok amounts!!!
Me too, great idea! This was yesterday:
100ml skimmed milk in my coffees - I'm having one after my morning workout and another mid-morning (with lots of sweetener!) otherwise I really struggle to make it until lunch time, and I didn't drink coffee before I had my 3rd boy so you never know!
Lunch - 2 small slices white bread with unsalted butter, a slice of dairylea light processed cheese and a little iceberg lettuce and skinless cucumber. Cup of strawberries with a dollop of zero % greek yogurt and sweetener on a meringue nest.
Dinner - 2 servings of pasta with half a tin of tomatoes and a few chopped leeks, mushrooms and courgettes with some quark (almost) fat free soft cheese mixed in.
Snack - pop tart. I never had these before and I hated it - so won't be having them again!
I meant to have my Yakult before bed but forgot ...
Today I've had:
100ml skimmed milk in 2 coffees
Lunch - 2 small slices of bread, unsalted butter and sugar free raspberry jam. A cup of grapes and an Activia fat free raspberry yogurt.
Dinner - same as yesterday but with a little parmesan instead of the quark. Meringue nest, zero % greek yogurt, sweetener and diced peeled apple.
I haven't decided what to have for snack yet and I'll try and remember my Yakult!
For drinks I have sugar free fruit squash (artificially sweetened), diet caffeine free coke and peppermint tea. I might have a vodka or two this weekend :D
Took several month to get used to...
7 am coffee with aspartame and coffemate
9am crystal light
11am low everything vegan lunch and diet caff-free soda
1 pm coffee with aspartame and coffemate
3pm crystal light
6pm low everything vegan rich dinner (40g of protien every other day) diet caff-free soda
8pm crystal light
The drinks spread out help to calm hunger pain. But I eat about 1,800 cals a day, no dairy, very little salt and sugar because I crave more, and about 40g of protein for BFing.
Before I was a hugh sugar, salt, and meat person. Guessing I was averaging 3,000 mg of salt, well over 500 cals worth of sugar, a weeks worth of protein in one day, and about 2,500-3,000 cals a day if not more. I plan to change a lot for a healthier lifetime diet.
Breakfast peppermint tea
Lunch 2 slices of toast with raspberry jam
Naughty caramel shortbread mid afternoon!!!!:wink:
Dinner pasta with courgettes and green beans and Parmesan. Muller light yogurt. Jelly sweet!
Not as good as yesterday!
... but what willpower having just one jelly sweet!
:happy:I'm more of a chocolate fan so I can't even go there!!!
Me again!!!
Breakfast peppermint tea
Lunch 2 pieces of toast with jam (there's a pattern here!!) actimel fat free, some strawberries,
A tiny, tiny bit of ds2's ice cream
Dinner cous, cous with courgette, aubergine, squeeze of lemon, butter and Parmesan. Muller light yogurt and few more strawberries
But jam toast is yum (shame we can't eat 4 or 5 slices of it!). Today I was excited because I'd decided that as a 'treat' on Saturdays I would have a couple of eggs. We also had a family day out so had a picnic.
Breakfast - coffee, sweetener and skimmed milk
Mid-morning - met friends for a coffee, had sweetener but no skimmed milk so I had a splash of semi-skimmed
Lunch - 2 pieces of bread with unsalted Lurpack, a slice of dairylea light and iceberg lettuce and cucumber (sounds so much more substantial than it is!), a packet of Goodies (toddler!) cheese puffs, strawberries. A couple of diet caffeine free cokes.
Dinner - A bagel with unsalted Lurpack and scrambled eggs. Meringue nest with an Activia fat free yogurt.
Snack - Grapes and Yakult light.
Seems like a good place to record my daily exercise too as I find it *so* difficult to stick to. Today I went out for an hour with my youngest DS in his pushchair and ran as much as I could, walking in between. It was exhausting and I tried to like it but I hated every minute!
