Foods

Don't list the calories, don't list the exercise, don't list portion sizes.

None of those pesky numbers, since we all are different.

One person can need 1400 a day, while another can need 2,500, and it can be really triggering to see someone ate a lower number than yourself.

Therefore, just list the food you ate. This will help us understand the value of eating healthy food (for the nutrients), while also indulging moderately in empty calories when we want. I don't know about you, but I'm aiming for 90% healthy foods - and 10% empty calories. ;)

Also, do not post here if you are starving yourself. I'm not interested in the details, it is only going to get others riled up, and it is triggering to those of us trying to recover from an eating disorder. Okay, thank-you.

Here's me for today:

Breakfast: slept far too late
Lunch: sandwich (100% whole wheat bread, garden burger veggie medley patty, soy dijon "mayo", pickle, lettuce), dried apricots, diet soda, tums, vitamin
Snack: apple, no salt added raw almond butter
Dinner: corn, bell peppers, sugar-snap peas, lettuce, firm tofu, soy dressing, tums
Snack: soy delicious peanut butter zig zag! yumm.

so far not much either

-honey nut cheerios and honey bunches of oats, coke zero, black coffee & splenda

I had a bad day. Went to two parties.

Brunch: Coffee and yogurt, and 100 calorie cookies
Later afternoon: Half slice of pizza and 1 slide of birthday cake

Not good. Tomorrow dawns a new day with new opportunities to lose weight.

Today was my cheat day though. Tomorrow and the rest of the week will be a bit healthier ;)

I've been having big problems with varying my food since I found out I'm allergic to dairy (haven't been able to find any soy products here in Norway), plus I was sick today, so..

Breakfast: (instead of my usual oatmeal I had) pita bread. One half with potato salad and smoked salmon, and one half with Curry lentil spread (I tried to put in a link, but don't know how to do it, and it won't work. Won't let me paste either...) and red bell pepper.

Lunch: Also pita, with curried lentils, smoked salmon, and a bit of potato salad

Dinner: Chicken breast cut in pieces with taco seasoning, with pita bread and a salad.

Evening: Pita bread with curried lentils, almonds, and potato salad.

Snack: apple


As you can see, I went totally pita bread and potato salad crazy today. Not good for me, and certainly not healthy. But being sick, not bthering to cook anything proper, and being low on variety in the house, it was easy and simple...  I'll have to behave better tomorrow. Only thing I can say in my defence is that I stuck to my calories.

one apple

two turkey hot dogs

three slices of cantaloupe
