Hi! When I was ttc my dd some threads I would share what I ate that day, seeing what others eat is very helpful! I am clueless what to eat, I usually just eat the sides of dinner I cook and a pop tart for lunch. I need to do better on the diet! Starting tomorrow I am going to be trying my best. I want to start trying by November :)
Sure I'm up for that! I usually eat the same few things

Me!!! I was hoping someone would start a thread like this. I'll join in tomorrow because I already had a ton of cake today.
My goal is to do low calorie, low sugar, low processed carbs. I'll try to post my daily calories, because that will hopefully motivate me enough to count calories.
Yay!! I will be posting my daily meals here at the end of the day. I’m trying to get better at the diet
Me too, am not counting it today because it's my birthday.

So far today I had a coffee with zero sugar zero calorie caramel syrup and 4 tbsp of 1% milk. Still no lunch yet but I'm going to make that soon

How long has everyone been on the diet it’s almost 3 weeks for me
I think I started October 2017?

Are we talking ttc girl? Today I had coffee, probably two pieces of whole wheat matza. Some cream cheese, grilled eggplant salad. I had triscuits hint of salt, a spoonful of salmon. One egg. Coconut water. Wine. Lol. I don't think I'm eating enough lately because I'm starting to feel weak. Had two veggie burgers... usually I'm more organized with my meals but today was crazy with kids home and working on my yard.... little bit of my diary. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cfb26f6b05.jpg

Here is my day! Had half of a cheeseburger left over from yesterday so that usually isn't on there but still stayed under in calories. Had some Crystal light drinks and lots of water. Also did my workout this morning and so far at 15000 steps [emoji16]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...31fd96e0ff.jpg

I felt like I was constantly eating today but I guess at least it turns out it wasn’t lots of fats or protein! I need to get back on track with my diet. I’m currently in the 2ww and convincing myself to keep going is hard.
I had coffee, a salmon burger, Frappuccino, more coffee, pizza, a cookie, & lots of crystal light.
Emshe, are we supposed to be counting all the vegetables? I would go over everything if I did.

I've been very hungry. Transitioning to whole grain and no sugar because I'm unsure of my pcos status. I already do whole milk. So it is still difficult for me. I made pizza for dinner and made myself a separate batch of dough with a sprinkle of salt, no sugar, and whole spelt flour. I didnt have whole wheat. Did no added salt tomato sauce and a mixture of cheese, one low fat low sodium. And some grilled eggplant. Was nice to eat with everyone. An iceberg salad with a tiny bit of oil, spices, and splash of balsamic. I have no idea how to calculate nutrients...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2de30552cc.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a3e51c3172.jpg

No most are free. The potato, pumpkin & sweet potato count ONLY CALORIES. Not fat, protein. I just eat a fair amount of those so I track them for caloriesI’m on the fertility version so use more veg & whole grain. Sorry if I confused anyone!Quote:

Wow that is a tiny amount of calories/protein/fat! Is that a normal day for you?Quote:

Eat lunch at about 12 with coffee and either bread, matzo or crackers with salad and cheese. Then about 4 another full meal. Then 7 another meal. All under 1500 calories. 50 fat and protein.Quote:

I agree, 1200 cal or lower seems very strict to me, and the protein and fat amounts are also veeeeery low.
I don’t want to frighten you, but in the first few weeks I also thought the lower the better, and my luteal phase decreased to 8 days which meant getting pregnant became significantly harder and my gyn told me that a short LP always has something to do with poor egg quality.
So I would really recommend to talk with Atomic, what she thinks. She always mentions the importance of the lower ends of the limits :)
I have to admit that I don’t restrict my cal intake anymore because I want to hold my weight steady and under 2300 cals I would lose weight :)
My 3 meals look like this:
After getting up: coffee with a splash of full fat milk.
10:00: most of the time a banana, a few slices of bread with a small amount of (vegan) butter or a croissant.
14:00: fruit with ice cream to boost my fat intake or a soup with bread
18:30: normal dinner with my family, most of the time rice, potatoes or pasta, or sushi,... always vegetarian for me.
After dinner I have to calculate if fat or protein is missing and I add a boiled egg, chocolate, ice cream or fat free sweets if I haven’t had enough.
I aim for 60g of f and p.
Ah, and most of the evenings I have white wine.

Love your daily meal plan. I was doing similar but changed when atomic recommended sugar free. And I still didn't shop. So my ice cream all has sugar... and most things I had were white flour carbs. I added larabars to get fat and nuts in. I used to be excellent on all the parts to my diet and had wine every evening. But now I'm still figuring out the fertility diet and it's not easy. That's why I like this thread. I'm looking for ideas. I'm gonna make soup today I hope with cauliflower and leek and zucchini. Then I will have toast with butter with it.Quote:

Any ideas for fat boosters on fertility diet? Any good ice cream or such without sugar. Ugh. Aspartame ice cream sounds awful. Please help me with ideas.

I have small lunch then dinner and a small snack before bedtime. Yes it’s normal for me. I could eat a bunch of cookies and cake all day long, I am more of a sweet and junk food eater not protein lol
Atomic suggest adding more carbs last time. I won’t be trying till about October.
I think any ice cream is fine as long as it’s in limit of your daily intake.
If you have a high tech blender you could try nicecream with full fat cream..Quote:

Or...avocados...when I was vegan I often had avocado chocolate mousse, when you blend avocado, mashed bananas and cocoa powder. You can find the recipe online!
Or.. nut butter on your toast?
Or...home made chocolate with coconut oil (melted) and cocoa powder and some sweetener..
Or...search for vegan sugarfree desserts! They are often full of (healthy though) fats [emoji4]

Here in Europe we often have whole grain products, so all my bread and rice is whole grain...
I also bake with whole grain flour, spelt or wheat, what I have.
Feasting on fruits is a Blog where you can also find many ideas w/o sugar!! :)

I did better today!!!! Ok, didnt get rid of sugar yet.... but better. Thanks Emshe, I think you are my soup person. Made a big pot of soup with zucchini, leek, Japanese yam (white sweet), and small amount of butternut squash and cauliflower. Lots of basil and parsley. Had with toast and butter. Perfection. Tried to eat this ice cream that was low stuff, but I couldn't stomach it. So I just had rice pudding, hence the sugar. I needed to up my fat. Not great on protein but a huge improvement. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d44098218b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d42420b2eb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1ce6d09b6f.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c53ea7cdeb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d3f0bb4c07.jpg

Well I suppose I did better today? Didn’t feel like I ate super well but my macros are where they should be (perhaps even a bit low).
I ate so much sushi though! I wonder if my calorie counter is off or if sushi really is that healthy of a choice? Any insight?

Coffee splash cream and equal in morning
1pm
I had a skinny cinnamon dolce latte with coconut milk and sugar cookie for lunch I was out shopping didn’t have time for lunch
5pm I had some fried rice a chopped salad from portillos no meat and two coconut shrimp with a wine cooler for dinner
9pm coffee with splash of cream and equal and some vanilla ice cream and gummy bears my calories were around 1250
I lost 3 pounds I need to up my calories I’m 103 so my BMI is very low. I had Mirena removed two weeks ago and waiting on af I had bleeding after removal but I’m not sure if that was my af or not. I won’t be trying till October
Maybe add some more grains or whole milk. Your calories are very low. If I see I'm too low I will eat triscuits before bed.Quote:
