Hi. What could I have for breakfast for girl sway?
I feel hungry with just a handful of nuts and an orange or 1 egg with an orange. I was used to a bowl of porridge and a yoghurt.
Please give me some ideas.

I have read some of your other posts and I need more information. Starting with how much food you are eating. I think you're not eating enough and that is why you're so hungry.
To answer your question though, I'd eat whatever YOU like within the limits of the day.
Most people do skip fortified cereal and porridge though.
Thanks. I said an egg and fruit , 2 slices of wholemeal bread and fruit or nuts and fruit, or yoghurt and fruit? Are they ok? Is wholemeal bread ok? Wholegrain and wholemeal are both fortified with vitamins though ah
That is not what I need from you. I need you to take an average day and tell me what you are eating. I cannot have people tell me foods and then me imagine in my mind how much they are eating. You could be eating vastly different amounts. Plus, it would be a full time job for me to calculate everyone's meals for them. It is much better for everyone to add up their stuff individually and tell that to me rather than me wasting hours and hours adding up people's meals (while guessing at what their portion sizes are.)
Eat what you want within the limits for the day. All those things are fine provided you were in the limits of the day.
But as we talked about in a different thread, since you have a history of an eating disorder it's best for you to simply go vegetarian and not worry about the limits (just be sure you're eating enough!). all those things would be fine as well.
Thanks so eggs wont say boy? I can't go vegetarian as my partner wont do it and we have our meal together and don't want to make different meals up. What could I eat to get protein if I did try vegetarian? I will try and persuade my partner. lol
It’s fairly easy to still eat vegetarian even if your partner isn’t. If you’re making a stir fry for example, just add meat to his plate, if having a salad for dinner add nuts/seeds/beans or whatever protein to the salad so you’re still getting some protein but then add chicken to his salad, he can have a beef burger while you have a veggie burger, if making pita pizzas then you could add ham/salami to his and leave it off yours, if making burritos just use beans in yours but add meat to his.
Or he could cook whatever meat he wants himself!
My in-laws (particularly my FIL) is pretty adamant about a meal not being a proper meal unless it has meat in it. We pretty much just do our regular vegetarian cooking when they come over and then just throw on a sausage for him to have on the side so he can have his meat. My MIL has been more open to having the meat-free option.

What about a curry or bolognese? how would I get protein in a curry or bolognese? lentil and chickpeas? Or is veg fine? Would I get enough protein in a yoghurt ..yoghurt has 8g of sugar though. Cheese and onion sandwich at lunch .. Maybe a bit of chicken with dinner wouldn't do harm to sway? No tea and delaying breakfast and no snacks is a major change for me with having aspergers and eating disorder past.
I know many vegetarians who have boys though?
You can have some eggs on LE Diet, sure. Within the limits, though. Some people imagine eggs are pink friendly because some say they "have progeseterone" (they don't really that is not how your body gets progesterone) and eat a dozen eggs a day. Don't do that. But 4-6 eggs a week is a-ok.Quote:

This is why the LE Diet is better. Vegetarians can still be taking in a lot of nutrients, eating fortified foods, etc. You can't look at one thing in isolation the way you're thinking of it.Quote:

If you can't do vegetarian and can't do diet, I think you should drop diet totally.
I think you will be better off just eating your normal diet if you have aspergers and eating disorder.Quote:

You can have chicken on the LE Diet and on the PCOS-type diet alike. The "vegetarian" thing is a recommendation for people who won't do the diet. If you can't do that, then please just eat your normal diet.
Thanks. I am hoping cutting snacks and tea is enough! That is a big change for me
