Day 1 - Does this sound good?

[teshy1986]

Hi everyone

I am starting off today!! did lots of shopping this morning. Can anyone please let me know if this is good so far

Breakfast - Omelette from 3 medium eggs, 1 small tomato,half a medium onion, thyme, 21g cheddar cheese cooked in 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Lunch - 2 chicken drumstick - about 175 - 200g worth of chicken grilled, broccoli - steamed, added tablespoon of butter on broc + 1 tablespoon of grated cheese

Dinner - going to have grilled salmon + remaining broc from lunch and will add olive oil/butter on fish.

I did not have any snacks as I wasn't hungry but is that too much cheese? does cheese stall anyone? what about double cream, should I only limit myself to how much I can have?

Thanks everyone for all the help!

I'm no expert but I do know that cheese stalls some people so be careful to keep within your allowance of 4 oz per day. Double cream is OK, lots here have it with a sweetner as a sweet treat, but remember to have enough fat, it sounds crazy I know but you need fat if you want to lose!

Thanks for the help. I will try to add more fats, will maybe cook the fish in lots of butter and sprinkle some more olive oil on broc tonight! xxx

It all looks lovely but I am one of those that cheese stalls. Good to see you going so clean and green.

Thank you!! and I have to say looking at your food diary, I will definitely try the pork sausages you have for breakfast. less time consuming than making omelettes in the morning before rushing off to work

one question about the butter you use, is it unsalted?or does it not matter? xxx

 

[Leanne1]

Mine is unsalted but I don't think it matters too much.
Yes, those chipolatas are yummy.

Hello and welcome

Suggest you swap the onion for spring onion - fewer carbs. And go easy on tomatoes (or avoid) in induction

Good luck
