Well done Artangel.
Looking at your daily plan, it sounds more food then I normally have.
Today is:
Porridge.
Pear.
Fry-up, 1 Egg, 2 Bacon, a few bake beans, mushrooms.
Soup, 1 slice bread.
Apple.

My friend gave me this link today, it might be helpful, but when reading it through it says Diabetics to avoid this diet.
The 8 week blood sugar diet
Sorry, the link did not work for me, but you can still just type it in on your browser.
How much weight have you lost now? susie. Are you drinking 2 litres of water a day?
The instructor mentioned āovernightā porridge with yoghurt but l donāt like yoghurt. Iām still not sure what she meant by āovernightā?
I bet Realist knows!
I donāt think Iāve lost anything Artangel, I never do.
susie , Youāve not lost weight, even after the small amount that you eat? At Slimming World and with the instructor, we are told to eat often and never be hungry.
The FF plan sounds good Artangel. Iām a fan of more smaller meals than the 3 traditional meals per day.
Actually I would recommend only eating when your body tells you it wants food. Since giving up the 9-5 office trap and being free, I found that I would want breakfast as soon as I got up, say 9-10am, then something else around 11.30 then I would get hungry again around 3pm and then I would have an evening meal around 6-7pm. I might even occasionally eat something later around 9-10pm if I felt hungry. That would usually be some toast or a bowl of cereal.
I should note that I am in no way dieting. I am simply eating differently to the regimented days when I worked in an office. I eat only when I want to eat. Drink only when I feel I want a drink. I never drink litres of water a day. Mostly I drink tea, which is probably not good.
However within 6 months of leaving work I lost over a stone just from that change. Now my weight is stable no matter what I eat.
BTW the āovernight porridgeā refers to soaking oats overnight (usually in milk) to create the best tasting porridge. You need the right oats to do this, not the instant stuff nor steel cut, but good rolled oats. This is a good article on the topic:
It will be interesting to see how you get on with your FF plan.
I may have lost just a couple of pounds, only I am normally 66kg but today I am 64kg.
Just had homemade Curry and Rice.
I eat when Iām hungry. And thatās it. I donāt eat on a āscheduleā. I also donāt force myself to eat if Iām not hungry. I went to bed last night with no dinner because, simple reasonā¦ I wasnāt hungry enough to eat anything. I had eaten a handful of rice crackers earlier, so I was fine.
2 kilos is about 4 and a half pounds-so that is really good.You are doing so well.
I am still not feeling wellānot feeling like eating muchājust had crispbreads and cottage chese pinapple for breakfastāat 1.30 !!
Might have some scambled egg , tomato , slice whole meal bread about teatimeāand as Im going to a quiz tonight, I will take a yoghurt with me.
Oh iām surprised at my weight.
Sorry you are still not well Mariana, do you have any homemade soup that you can have?
Yes-i have some home made soup in my freezerājust did not fancy it.
I was told that the antbiotics could be making me feel unwell-so just another 2 days to go. !!
But i enjoyed my scrambled egg and tomatoes this evening.
Eating a little better today
crispbread, cottage chesse pineapple
crispbread houmouss
pasta with chopped vegāsalmon
yoghurt.
My favourite crispbreads are Ryvita Crackerbreadāonly 19 calories a slice. I buy the plain ones that come in a large pack for only Ā£1.10p contains 2 sealed packsāuseful. Although I bought 2 ryvita tins to keep them fresh.
Today it is:
Porridge, made with water.
Salmon Salad.
Chicken Roll.
Mornin Lassies and congratās Artā on Your weight lossā¦fabāā¦Itās been too hot here in the West of Scotland for the past week to do much cooking,so instead of having 3 meals a day, Iāve just been snacking 4/5 times a day and Iām surprised Iāve lost a couple of Lbs,so a change in eating habits does work
That is brilliant May. Well done
I had my usual breakfastāspent the afternoon with a friend, so to make it simple i took my owm lunchā2 slices wholemeal bread with salmon. Not really hungry this evening so had a little pasta and chopped vegetables.
You guys eat like birds, LOL.
But I canāt talk, since I never (or rarely) eat breakfast. And today for lunch I had a Lean Cuisine. But tonight Iāll have something a little better. Going to make me a nice wrap with avocado mayo.
Today iām having:
Porridge.
Boiled Egg Salad.
Homemade soup, 1 slice of bread.
How is it going so far everyone, happy with your progress ? Anyone hit the stone wall yet, always found a time when things stalled for a while.
