January 2014- Let's record what we are eating!

Lol @ the "flat white" conversation! When I went to England I went to an "Australian" themed pub/restaurant & was super excited to find a flat white on the menu! I had no idea they were just an Aussie thing til I left the country. A flat white with an extra shot is my favourite coffee.

All I had during the day today was a rice milk coffee at 11am... But then tonight we had Indian takeaway and I had Dahl soup and chicken korma and rice! I ate way too much and feel so full now!!

Even with only one meal today, I'm sure I'm over my totals for everything!! 😞

[stephk]

there is no way with that one meal you are over totals

[stephk]

520am - coffee with whole milk
12.30pm - sweet potatoes, broccoli, mushrooms, hummous, an essential waitrose side salad and waitrose adzuki and edamame salad
3.00pm - raspberries, blackberries and total greek yoghurt. Cup of dandelion tea and 3 hotel chocolat treacle tart chocolates (these were AMAZING, it is taking lots of self control not to eat the other 3!!)
8.00pm - garlic and coriander cous cous, half can of waitrose ratatouille, half a pack of waitrose vegetable layer, a corn on the cob, some roast butternut squash and courgette

approx 1800 cals, 58g (30%) fat, 52g protein

Trying to shape up my diet a bit, might motivate if I put it up here :-)

6.30: Coffee with a little skimmed milk

10: 3 rice cakes & coffee w milk

12.30: Veggie "bite" with roasted potatoes and peas, iceberg salad.

17.30: Pita bread with salad and falafel, low fat garlic dressing. A few sweets (swedish fish).

Totals: 1482 cals, 45 g protein, 46 g fat (28%).

Usually try not to eat meat substitutes like quorn or so more than once a day or less since it contains pretty much protein, but now that DH also tries to stay veggie we have it more often. Plain pasta or rice with veggies isn't really enough for him.

And "flat white" – I had no idea, I also thought it was a slice of white bread, haha!

This thread is very helpful, I love the inspiration and to see the variation of foods. A lot of it I don't even know what it is or were it's found, but it's still very interesting!

I'm going to be naughty today and have a little meat on my taco. I've found if I eat tiny portions of meat (and stay within protein guidelines) I feel SO MUCH BETTER. I get tired of having zero energy and feeling nauseated all the time. Meat definitely magically makes me feel better - even just an ounce or two!

Lunch: Low fat trader joe's kettle corn, trader joe's low fat veggie pizza with zucchini, squash, bell peppers

Dinner: taco bell gordita supreme + crunch wrap, 1/2 bottle of wine, 1 chocolate covered strawberry
