It's me again - I promise I'm not picking on you!!

Galette. You have two in your menu here. I presume you stuck to your two tablespoons oatbran and made two tiny ones?

I'm not seeing much protein still.

I never ate breakfast either. Or much protein, come to that.

PV day

B - 2 cups coffee and skimmed milk (no time for food first thing, will do better tomorrow!)

L - sliced chicken breast, cherry tomatoes, cucumber.

D - courgette, red pepper, tomatoes and spinach with baked eggs, broccoli, cauli.

Snack - ff with 2tbs oatbran.

Feels like I am having quite a bit of veg, definitely getting a good variety but hope it's not too much. Will see at next weigh in!

Veg quantity looks good. Protein low though! Think 2/3 protein to 1/3 veg.

In our FAQs post, there are suggestions how to fill out your User CP etc to show your current stats please. Without seeing what you weigh, it's impossible to gauge whether you're eating enough protein.

Is your natural yoghurt fat free?
Chinese spice?

Thanks for your breakfast comment. I totally agree (and never used to eat breakfast when I weighed 22 stone!!).

At your weight, with your stats, I'm not sure why you're on this diet to be honest so no comments on your menu. Time for Conso?

Natural Yog sure is fat free, I think i've made a mistake with the chinese 5 spice as it has hidden sugars in :-(

 

[Maintainer]

Don't dwell... lots of these ready mixed spices do have hidden extras and now you'll be ultra vigilant. We've all done it... once! Good to get it out of the way at the outset!

Now that I see that you have a little while with us on the diet, please eat more protein if you're hungry. Don't gauge yourself per other people's diaries, as the more you weigh, the more protein you need to eat to protect your muscles.

Good luck!

did better protein wise today, and yes, i make each gallette with 1tbsp of oatbran.
I am glad that you are kind enough to help me, so, if you see where I could improve, please don't hesitate to let me know.
thanks

pv day
b: 2 cups tea and cottage cheese
l: white fish with mustard sauce, half a tub of quark, tea
d: large salad with smoked mackerel
1 large oatbran biscuit, capaccino
s: sf jelly
weight: 12.4
PS: 2nd day of not smoking!!!!

 

[Maintainer]

Oh Londoner CONGRATULATIONS (on the smoking thing... I'm 4.5 years clean, and I remember it as if it were yesterday!)

If you're finding it difficult having a lot of protein in one go, perhaps compose your meals as the doctor suggests in the book with a starter and main, rather? Personally, I can't abhor a plate of the same thing so my PP plates tend to have several "ingredients" rather than just the one. (ie, half a piece of salmon, some turkey and a handful of prawns... for instance.)

Check out our recipe section. You might find something you fancy. The frittata is a good one for protein (eggs + whatever filling you choose) and you could have a slice as a starter before whatever main you've planned.

Homemade "capuccino" I trust with skimmed milk? and I'm presuming your fish and mustard sauce was home made too? (most packaged fast foods add "things" we can't have!)

Lausanne,
I think your menu looks lovely - nice and varied.

By the way is the vanilla quark made by you, or do you buy it already flavoured?

Hi,
Capaccino at work made with semi skimmed milk, mustard sauce home adapted from the dukan recipe book.(75g ff yogurt,tsp of capers,tsp of dijon mustard,pinch of mixed herbs, all warmed on hob)Pretty tasty.
You are right about eating one of the same protein, I had not realised it, I would take a few mouthfuls and would have enough, but, if there were different things, I might find it easier.
Will try it. I am working again today, so, when I get time to shop again, I will certainly do what you suggest.
Thanks, x
