Let's record what we're eating to help each other

I'm also doing the alternate version of LE. Yesterday I had:
~11am: Smoothie: 1 full fat yogurt, 1 can coconut water, 1 banana, 2 c strawberries
3pm: 4T hummus, 32 Hint of Salt Wheat Thins, 2 Chicken Nuggets, iceberg Lettuce Salad w/ 1T Italian dressing
7pm: 2 slices whole grain bread, 2oz turkey lunch meat, 1/8c nuts, iceberg lettuce salad w/ 1T Italian dressing

So far today:
1pm: Chicken burrito with brown rice, a little sour cream, black beans, and salsa with a Diet Cherry Coke.

I'll probably have 1c cottage cheese, 1c pineapple, 1/8c nuts and a graham cracker with peanut butter for dinner around 6pm or so.

I've only been on the diet since Jan 1st and I'm surprised at quickly I'm adapting to it. Don't get me wrong, I totally miss my breakfast!! I've found that taking the myo-inositol when I'd normally have breakfast has really helped to stave off hunger. It also helps to take another dose at night after dinner. Like LacePrincess, I don't track the calories or I'll become too obsessed. I just pick foods from the diet sheet and cross my fingers that I'm in the right ranges.

Thanks for reminding me about coconut water. I've not bought any yet. I know obsessing over details it isn't great but I seem to lose weight too fast unless I'm careful so I do track my calories using MFP.

Today is:
Lunch - low fat super noodles, white bread, salad, diet soda and a few squares of dark mint chocolate.
Dinner - roasted peppers and tomatoes on pasta

Totals should be: 1400cals, 23g fat, 35g protein

ARGH! Again I need to add calories!

[LacePrincess]

I wish I could dump weight fast! It is becoming clear to me that IR really is an issue with me. I struggle with dumping weight on the LE diet because of my IR, it's incredibly frustrating to have weight stick even with working out so much and eating not that much.

So now I'm contemplating going low sugar and gluten free, which makes me want to cry at the thought. (

Ok so today's plan:

Breakfast - half cup coffee with non dairy low fat creamer, 1/2 cup cottage cheese with some strawberries and cinnamon, half a cheesestring

Lunch - rice, green beans, seaweed salad, eggwhites with cheese & veg, a few cookies/candy for dessert

Dinner - sweet potato pancakes, wilted spinach, 1/2 cup yogurt with blueberries

Dessert - rice pudding

Total around 1400-1500 calories. I also have a 1.5 hour ballet class tonight.

Today:
12pm: Smoothie: 1 full fat yogurt, 1 can coconut water, 1 banana, 2 c strawberries
3pm: Bruschetta (Roma tomato, squirt basil paste, 1T oil, drizzle Balsamic) on 2 slices whole grain bread toasted with 2oz melted cheese and diet cherry coke
7pm: 2c stir fry veggies, 4 chick nug sized pieces of chicken, stir fry sauce (1/4c oj, 1T cornstarch, 1t soy sauce) cooked in 1T canola oil and served with 1c brown rice and more diet cherry coke

Lunch today I went a bit ott on the fat so went light on dinner!

Lunch 8 corn crackers half with low low cheese spread half with chocolate spread. Which was ok then I had a pack of mccoys crisps a fudge and a snack pack of cadburys shortcake!
Dinner roast yellow peppers in a homemade chilli tomato sauce and a small amount of rice. Then 3 digestive biscuits. Ran an extra 1K tonight because I don't usually eat that much rubbish!

I think my problem is I'm not eating filling food at lunch and I'm still hungry so I just eat what's easy which is rubbish foods! Need to make more of an effort tomorrow.

Rubbish food is pretty good for pink though FrillyLady. I normally eat wholefoods and cook from scratch, so one thing I change when TTC pink is to eat processed crap like super noodles, tinned potatoes, diet drinks and sweets! It takes a bit of getting used to!

[LacePrincess]

I had my baseline scan this morning for my FET, so I ended up skipping breakfast entirely. Which was good for pink I guess! Got a McD's cappucino on the way home and omg I was sooooo wired on caffeine on an empty stomach I was shaking, LMAO.

So today's plan is:

Brunch @ 11am - 1/2 cup cottage cheese with strawberries, cinnamon, and a dab of honey. English muffin with butter, green beans, and some rice pudding for dessert.

Workout - cardio step workout, around 70 min.

Metamucil in diet gingerale around 3pm

Dinner - fried rice with jasmine long grain rice, veggies and chicken breast.

Dessert - rice pudding or xmas cookies.

Total approx 1300-1400 cals.

[weeziewoozles]

Me again!

Lunch - pasta and sauce packet with salad and a few squares of dark chocolate
Snack - G&T and baked crisps
Dinner - veg stir fry on white rice with a few mini veg spring rolls and sweet chilli dipping sauce, and white wine

Totals - 1860cals, 33g fat, 36g protein

Well, today got off to an early start because my DH was home this morning and hungry. So, I ended up having "breakfast" with him at 10am.
Today:
10am: Smoothie: 1 full fat yogurt, 1 can coconut water, 1 banana, 2 c strawberries
2pm: 2 slices whole grain bread, 2oz turkey lunch meat, 1/8c nuts, iceberg lettuce salad w/ 1T Italian dressing and a coke

Lunch today was on the run so I had a decaf flat white and a packet of baked crisps.

Dinner was gluton free pasta with kids pasta sauce and a sprinkling of hard cheese. Kitkat and some Jaffa cakes afterwards.
