Completely off topic...
I always had low blood pressure. 110/70
Since changing to this diet it's now
140/94!
Dr is worried. I don't know if it's diet? I think my salt intake has been higher than 700mg day though since this

Hmmmm sorry but I don't know much about blood pressure. Are you watching your sodium?

My Indian dinner party was a huge success. I'm off to bed now at 1am having only put the leftovers in the fridge/freezer. I've not even started tackling the washing up and tidying!

I definitely over ate, so let's call today a cheat day! I had my homemade roast cauliflower, spiced green beans, bhindi bhaji, mushroom bhaji and two puff-pastry veg samosa hybrid things (that I made up). Also ate a chapati, half a small naan, a small popadom, onion bhaji, pakora, some chick pea curry, some potato curry, and a bite of the butter chicken I'd made and of the lamb curry my friend had made. PLUS a piece of the lemon cheesecake my other friend had made and a few Celebrations (small chocolates). So stuffed!

On the plus side, all of my homemade veggie stuff was cooked with NO oil. The puff pastry samosa things I made were baked so only had the fat (and protein) in the pastry. No defence on the cheesecake or chocolates though.

Oh yes and I had two Cava and two Red wine :-)

Everyone needs a cheat day now and then to stay sane! I've been craving samosas so bad lately. I may have to work a couple in my totals one day.

Today I did pretty well again

Breakfast: cinnamon raisin bagel with cinnamon cream cheese and a coffee
Lunch: tomato soup, a slice of toast with a little butter, half a gingerbread cookie and more coffee
Dinner: mushroom and goat cheese ravioli with spinach, a small piece of garlic bread, and a beer

Calories: 1,649 Protein: 39 Fat: 56

My fat could be better but I'm still within goal range and I'm not going to stress over it because I'm still breastfeeding my toddler during the day so I figure the extra fat won't hurt me too much.

Yes. Today I'm at 1100. Not to bad . I'm usually over but not by much

Hi all!

Today i had ...

- Breakfast at 1030am was a soy flat white & a jam crumpet

Lunch was pesto pasta & a slice of fruit toast

Dinner will be mixed vegetables & some grilled tofu

I keep going over on my protein- despite not having meat, or yogurt & limiting nuts. Also finding it very hard to cut out a post dinner chocolate! Been on the diet for almost three weeks - three months (probably more) feels like an eternity (& I've been a vegetarian for 6 years)... so jealous of people who just have a girl without even thinking about it!

It was and I've had leftovers for lunch! I made about half of it and my friends bought or made the rest

Breakfast - black coffee
Lunch - Veg curry leftovers and a few Celebrations chocolates
Dinner - veg curry leftovers and wine!

EDIT actually ended up having a complete cheat! I've had less than five hours sleep for the last two nights AND my friend and her hubby plied me with Champagne for having their kids over for tea because it was his 40th. So...tipsy me ordered a Domino's!

Dinner - Domino's medium veg pizza with low fat mozzarella and Domino's garlic pizza bread AND obviously red wine
