Hi all,
I am a 19 stone gent who has recently been diagnosed with gaulstones (diagnosed after a few weeks of hell with pain I may add).
Ok so long story short, I have been diagnosed with gaul stones. If I eat red meat (with the exception of mince meat for some reason), chips, pastry, Nuts I spend the next 5 hours doubled over in pain.
So after a long talk with the doctor two weeks ago I decided that this may be the kick I have always needed to stay away from the bad foods and put off having the operation to remove them. the same day I joined the gym and have been going for an hour a day 7am - 8am everyday for 12 days now, whilst there I cycle 4 - 6 miles, and brisk walk/jog 2 - 3 miles. Along with because of my job I walk on patrol between 2 - 3 hours.
My diet for the past two weeks has consisted of
- 3 hard boiled eggs for breakfast
- lunch is either a greggs Salad box ( 430cals) and fruit pack (advertised as 160cals)
- dinner (which I have been eating between 10 and 11 at night because of my work) is what ever the wife makes, so it could be shepards pie one day, curry the next - she has been using slimming world recipies so I know they are not loaded with excessive calories.
- I drink copious amounts of Diet coke during the day and 4 - 5 bottles of water.
Now the problem I have is that when I started I was 18stone and 13lbs, and today 12 days later I am 18stone and 13lbs. Granted, I will be the first to admit I have cheated twice - the first was a White finger kitkat 4 days ago and the second was today - a bag of reveals.
So yeah, does anyone know what I am doing wrong - I know its only been 12 days but I would expect something to have come off. Am I eating the wrong things?? I don't think Im eating to much as my calories are coming in between 900 - 1500 a day. does anyone know of a site that I can find a meal plan?? (im really not fussed if I have to eat the same thing everyday, I know longer have any enjoyment from food so that wouldn't matter).
Cheers
Rob
