Day 12 Whole30

Good day to you all!

Yesterday the menu was like this:

B: Banana, as I had to run out early and then go food shopping

L: Ham, romaine lettuce, cucumber, sweet potato and 2 boiled eggs (I’d under boiled them so had to nuke them for a bit, they came out a bit rubbery n not that nice – but I still ate them!)

D: mince with grated carrot, onion and passata, boiled potatoes and broccoli

The last 2 nights I haven’t snacked at all after dinner. (as in nuts and apple) I kinda wanted to, probably from habit, but I didn’t need to. So I forced myself not to. Little Victories.

Just a little rant about daily life: I live opposite a school and it seems as though no matter what time I come home, people are picking kids up or dropping them off. I always avoid coming back after 2.00pm and before 3.30pm anyway, but now the last few days I’ve got home at around 11.25 ish and 12.30ish and my street is chocka and I can’t flaming pack anywhere. Reallllllly annoying!! On the plus side, when my little one starts school I wont have far to go!

Haha

Have a good day xx

Big woops

Hello,

Err big woops, I have not posted for a looooong time!

What have I been doing? Who knows haha!!

Well, I have been eating healthily on and off. I keep losing and regaining the same 7 pounds, which wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t need to lose another 30lbs!

I have not done dukan for a while, or strictly paleo or low carb. Or the perfect health diet. There are too many diets.

They are all kind of similar really (don’t scream) as they focus on good whole real food, which is the most important message to get out there I think.

My daily diet is trying to eat as healthily as possible, getting good fats, trying not eat too many carbs, and staying away from sugar wheat and dairy,

I did go through a bit of a binge lately and was eating kit kats like there was no tomorrow. I could not stop myself. I was craving sugar and salt and just couldn’t stop eating to be honest. Food was on my mind constantly.

Now, I don’t know what’s changed, I seem to get these binge urges once a month LOL, but sometimes when I set my mind to something I can snap out of it.

OK  –  don’t kill me! I’ve started the WHOLE30.

HAHAHA

I think I’ve done more diets than anyone! And I’m still fat…..there must be a reason behind all of this…..

Ok, so I know whole30 is a lifestyle diet (we seem to have lost the meaning of the word diet) but it kicks out all the crap and will hopefully put me on the right path.

I am on day three and am doing ok so far. I know I have definitely eaten too much potato (sweet & normal) but I can’t think of anything else to eat with each meal.

The good thing about this is that you’re not allowed to weigh yourself for the whole 30 days. Bit of a relief really. (I still weigh 71k booo)

My food diary looks something like this:

Breakfast: sautéed cabbage with scrambled egg and leftover sweet potato (see, I don’t always eat all of it!)

Lunch: tuna with salad, spring onion, err new potatoes,

Snack: apple with some almonds and walnuts

Dinner: cauliflower rice with onion and tomato and bacon.

So, wish me luck (for the hundredth time….)

Speak soon!! Watch this space for more……………..blogs coming up!!

Day 2 of rice and potatoes

hello hello. Well I’ve had a busy busy day and I am knackered.

I went out early for a walk to my sisters house and then my mum walked back to my house  with me so she could get some exercise in too.

So if you read my post yesterday I am trying out The Perfect Health Diet. 

Let me tell you again, that I’m normally NEVER full. EVER.

Yesterday I ate:

B: James uneaten dinner of rice tuna peas 

L: ham, scrambled eggs, peas, 75g baked potato

D: broccoli,Carrots,75g mash and a fish fillet and peas.

For the first time in my life I was full and could not finish my dinner. Usually I will eat til everything is gone and then go look for more food. Awful!

• But I actually had to leave a little piece of fish broccoli and mash. I couldn’t have another bite.

Weird!

I was astonished. And a bit smug. I felt full of energy all day and actually felt really really happy. 

I don’t know what was going on but I felt  good.

After dinner even tho I wasn’t hungry I had a yoghurt and 25g of 85% dark chocolate. (This was a couple of hours after dinner) then just before bed I was so nauseous I had to keep running to toilet but thankfully I wasn’t sick. Strange! I wonder what that was about?!

So I am feeling positive about the diet (diet meaning lifestyle)

My weight was down another 300g to 70.7, 11.2, 155.6!

Wish me luck x
