Hi any readers,
C'mon, lets get this little forum going. I made the decision a few months ago to give up dieting. it was a tough one, and I put on about 8lbs, but it solved a lot of issues for me. I stopped overeating/binging/obsessing about food/compulsive eating. The trouble I had was that I gained about 8lbs on top of what I was already carrying. I just couldnt do this "eat what you like" anymore. Something clicked within me, and I suddenly realised that I wanted to live. I wanted to strenghten my body, get fit, eat healthier foods, and get to grips with my life.
So, on the 3rd of March, I joined a gym, and then about 4 weeks ago i started to watch what I was eating, and am tentively counting calories, just til I get acustomed to what Im eating.
I have an appointment with a consultant in October to see about a breast reduction, so I have to get my BMI down, but apart from that, I am starting to really learn what foods suit me and what dont.
Its a way of life, and its starting to pull through. Im loving it,.
So, food today -
B - 2 brown soda bread with scraping of butter (actually ok in moderation, and probably better than artificially produced marges), scraping of jam.
S - plum, nectarine, banana
L - food doctor pitta, chicken breast, salad with ztaziki, and mixed salad with sprouts and seeds
S - 2 caramel rice cakes
