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

[purple]

I take Metamucil in capsule form, it is easy to take that way and much more discrete at work. Plus I can carry it around in my bag easily for when I'm out for lunch.

I don't know how well I'm doing with the whole diet thing. I'm doing ok with not snacking (most of the time) but I still have breakfast. I have delayed it about 2 hours so I go from dinner at 6pm to breakfast at about 9am. I also have toast now instead of cereal. I'm still eating similar to before but keeping within 1500 - 1600 cals.

Hi pink2011. Welcome! Just a couple things I noticed in your post and I'm sure someone with a lot more experience will also respond. Pretty sure fasting should be no longer than 16 hours, I think the recommendation is 12-16 hours. Also are you monitoring your calorie, fat, protien intake as your food for the day doesn't seem to add up to much especially as your burning 1000 calories exercising. I guess it depends on how much weight you can spare but sounds like you may need to increase food intake? As I said previously I'm sure someone will come on and help

Thank you!

I am pretty much only starting out so still trying to work out what I can have in my limits. I am going well with the exercise I did 65 min today on the treadmill so it was just under 12km

Today I have had 1 coffee this am

2 small bread rolls with 2 slices of light cheese.
iceberg lettuce.

I am making a vegetable curry for tea with beans, turnip, parsnip, zucchini, capsicum, carrot and leek .. I will have that woth some jasmine rice. I will probably have a handful of allens lollies right after tea.

Have you thought about getting a plan from Atomic? All the information you'll ever need is on this site and she and others always answer questions but it takes the constant questions out of the equation getting a plan not to mention the stress of wondering if you're doing it right I'm one of those planners, organisers with their ducks all in a row lol so a plan was perfect for me. There's so much info and everyone's different so if your planning ttc sooner or later I would really recommend it if its an option for you Best of luck whatever you decide and fx you get your girl! When are you going to start ttc?

Hi Purple! Sounds like your doing just fine! They do say its more about fasting for 12-16 hours than actually skipping brekky as such. Your hours are similar to mine only a couple hours forward 10-12 first meal 6-8 second Have you been on the diet long? Are you ttc or still in planning stage?

[pinkin2011]

I have a plan off Atomic I have had it for a while now. I ate enough calories today I made a very nice vegetable curry for tea. And I had a handful of lollies right after my meal.

I am ttc in july

I say if it's within the limits and the fat gram totals are good then eat the ice cream! Haha
