Brand sparkly (pink) new diet thread for GIRL sways!

3 sacharm your food intake today sounds so delicious, am not great at this diet, today I had a cup of tea for breakfast with sugar, lunch chicken, lettuce, tomato and chickpea salad, gallons of coke zero and dinner pizza with tomatoes and pepper,.
What foods do you ladies reach for to top up calories without swaying blue? I think am below my calorie intake most days, my fitness pal tells me off everyday. I have started eating some white bread to try and increase. I exercise for an hour each day! Many thanks

Forgot I had wine tonight, that is bound to bump my calories up?

I think it's the exercise and lack of protein?! I've never been fat/overweight but I'm at my smallest now and my husband actually called me "skinny" the other day; my chest, ribs and pelvic bones are becoming quite visible now and bmi is 20. Something so I know not to go any lower but af is just leaving now - diet has been dismal the last few days which I'm putting down to that! I'm under on my fat today but slightly over on protein, I'm doing the pcos variation so higher protein and fat.

Alcohol is good for boosting kcals, I love bagels and crumpets and both are pretty good for le diet and fruit is fairly innocuous on the diet too X

I think I need to cut the oreos! I'm not and never have been overweight or fat, but since having DS2 I have had a layer, a very stubborn layer that I am finding so hard to shift. My bmi hovers around the 22 mark. I find it quite disheartening that I am not really losing that much noticeable weight and I'm exercising and not eating crumpets and bagels!! Maybe I need to move even more and eat even less to create even more of a deficit!

I just bought licorice and gummies and pop and told DH the diet starts today. He thinks I'm nuts. I ate an orange and feel like I cheated lol.

Today I had: pita pizza so that's naan bread with tomato paste and mushrooms zucchini and leeks topped with some cheddar. I had this for both lunch and dinner it was so good. I also had like 8 pieces of licorice and an orange.
This is: 1500 cals, 42g protein, 30g fat.

Should we watch our sugar intake too? I never eat candy and I really feel the sugar. I brushed my teeth ASAP.

Nope. Not unless you have PCOS or have insulin resistance. In that case, it's best to avoid or to limit sugar.

Us ladies doing the traditional LE diet, find candy, pop, and other empty calories to help boos calories and to make the diet somewhat tolerable.

You'll be surprised what you can get used to!

I had these for brekkie this am (well, one/half) and they were yummy, not strictly pcos le but I added only about a 3rd of the sugar to the whole recipe so only about 2 tsp, the boys enjoyed them too!

About 10g of fat and 10g of protein but worth it imo!x

Ooh that look lovely 3sacharm, I think I'd have to eat all of it!
I like the sound if your pizza Nessa.
Lunch today is 6 corn cakes, two with ww cheese, four with low sugar jam and a cup of coffee. Dinner will be sun dried tomato and garlic cous cous. Had a bit of a cheat last night so I'm going light today.

I am out this evening and tomorrow evening so can't drink wine so struggling today to get enough calories etc. But so far I have had 2 rolls for lunch with sandwich spread and half a pack of crisps inside (bit naughty) and a salad with cous cous and salad cream. Going off cous cous and almost struggling to eat it but making myself so it bumps up cals etc. Will probably have the same for tea plus a digestive Biscuit.
