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

mumofsix - no i do not think it will be at all. It is your birthday and you should enjoy yourself. Also, if we only had to be worried about the diet for one day, we would only do it one day (I have seen atomic say this and it makes sense!)

Please enjoy your birthday without guilt and get attempting

Thanks stephk! Hope you're right. 😊

520am - coffee with whole milk
12.30 - a couple of sweet potatoes, some broccoli, some mushrooms, some hummous
2.30pm - essential waitrose side salad and essential waitrose beetroot salad
6.00pm - 2 cosmopolitan cocktails
8.00pm - will share a bottle of chardonnay with DH and I bought a pad thai meal kit from waitrose ealier. Just need something easy to cook tonight and was getting a bit stupid with logging various stuff into MFP! Will very likely have a magnum ice cream for dessert.

Really hope I manage not to eat anything else now...

oh yes and thats my last log now until after the holiday, the wifi will be dodgy there anyway and theres no point in posting how many pancakes I eat for breakfast every day. In fact I am considering not even logging onto MFP whilst I am there I will only make myself feel bad as I will be way over every day.

Enjoy your holiday stephk!!

Sounds sensible. Have a lovely time X

So after my 800cals lunch of a small jacket potato and baked beans, with Pop crisps, a bit of avocado (for fat and potassium), a 7Up and some Go Ahead biscuits I felt pretty full. Even so, I have felt pretty lightheaded this afternoon so am having a G&T and some salted peanuts while my boys eat their dinners to keep me going until mine! Dinner is going to be Tesco Vegetable Quarter Pounder and Reduced Fat Chips with some veg and a beer. Love that the LE can include booze! Helps with sticking to it all!

Totals for the day should end up: 1893 calories (I'm BF so keeping it high), 48g Fat, 43g Protein

stephk - thank you so much for your amazing informative posts! Also, thanks for the education on british food names (I feel so worldy now that I know what a courgette is!!). Enjoy your holiday and DO NOT log into MFP!

momof6 - belated happy birthday! Glad you enjoyed it! Don't feel guilty at all!

weezie - good job getting day 1 under your belt!

I will post again next week. I'm taking the weekend off and will NOT be following LE. My sister is in town (who I rarely get to see) and we will be having several meals out. I'll keep up with the running every day and hopefully a weekend off the diet won't ruin my sway!

Enjoy BlueBonnet!

I did a lot better today. I think I'm getting the hang of this slowly!

6am - tea with milk. Drank black coffee until lunch time

12:30 - salad sandwich on sunflower & chia gluten free bread with a little almond butter

6pm - home made vegan pizza. (Which was surprisingly delicious)
3 glasses white wine.

Probably had too much sodium, I didn't add any salt to anything but the pizza tasted really salty, perhaps the sauce I used.

Total for the day - 1650 calories.
