    Brekkie - skipped but when dieting I would have one of those shakes designed for weight loss.

    Snack - diet yoghurt

    Lunch - Salad and chicken sandwhich/ lowest calorie soup I could find - not both one or the other!

    Snack - banana

    Dinner - Usually a chicken stir fry, or steamed veg (brocolli, carrot, peas and corn) 1 small potato or rice/ or I would have chicken and veg rissoto very small portion!!!

    After dinner - low fat icecream.

    When not dieting: lots and lots of chocolate, full cream ice cream loaded with topping and chocolate pieces lol, cakes and sugary biscuits haha

    Low fat/low calorie. Snacks throughout day and just drank CL pink lemonade, craisins, salads, very little fried foods ever. Drank sprite occasionally but never any diet drinks. Love candy- sweet tarts, anything tart really.

    I never ate breakfast. Would have a jumbo mug of coffee and sometimes a nutrigrain bar or something on my way to the gym, then would work out for 2 hours. Would have a protein drink (from the gym- usually Muscle Milk) after working out, then would have something light like a pb&j or turkey sandwich with fruit and always drank some sort of calorie-free (but not plain water) beverage. For dinner, usually had a little white meat protein, very little carbs, and veggies. Never cooked with butter but a little olive oil. Reason for all of this was my mean (now ex) dh who would freak out if I had an inkling of fat on my body (yes, even while pg and with kids), or ever served any food that was in any way "greasy or fattening" and never red meat as he'd get the runs from it. (He had IBS, was a control freak, and had OCD...yes, lovely....no wonder I left him, right!?) And, on the testosterone point, I think mine was low because of not much meat, especially red meat. I did and still do drink some red wine quite frequently....like a glass while cooking, not a bottle a night or anything, although occasionally I would on the weekends. So, all in all, I was eating VERY little and working out a TON, was very thin and surely very acidic.

    GOOD LUCK!!!

    I forgot to add that I NEVER used salt and ate very low sodium as that good old ex-dh would freak out and say I was going to give myself a bad heart, blah blah blah. I really had a perfectly healthy diet, although in retrospect, if I were making it a really perfect diet for the real world and not ttc anything, I would add some more lean protein (like an egg at breakfast) and I would have more grains and fruits and veggies each day. I just had this notion that less calories would do the trick, and it sure worked for keeping me thin and making girl babies!

    Jen, that's what I need to start eating after I get pg and deliver to lose all this blue diet weight! I was similar with food choices you had, and never used to eat after dinner around 7pm also.

    Oh I was crazy diligent when I got preg w/dd#3, hoping after this free for all I'm in right now that I can reign it back in and drop some weight afterwards too.
