Well pleased this week!!!

I have had a good week on GL and am down 3lbs
This takes me past the 90lb mark, yippee!!! I am finding that GL really suits me as I like all the suggested foods etc. Hope I can keep up with it. The biggest thing, I find, is watching those portion sizes!! Hope you are all having a good week.

Thanks Mak and Mini. I hope I can keep it up!!!!! Today was a good day too.
What I had today and this is a typical day's food:
40g porridge with 10g milled seed and 70ml semi skimmed milk
1 slice rye bread with cottage cheese,tomato
two plums and some walnuts
turkey with bulgur and veg(small plate)
nectarine, plum and 2 dessert spoons yoghurt
4 coffees with skimmed milk
2 litres water.
I was a little short of my 1300 cals but I am not the slightest bit hungry.

Well done! I'm in my first week of low gi, finding it a bit tough not having sugar because I'm a sugar addict but I'll be chuffed with a two pound loss like yours next week!

 

[irish molly]

Naoimi, it will get easier. Use sweeteners if you really need the sugar taste. Have berries of any kind like strawberries, blueberries etc or two plums with a dessert spoon of yoghurt as these are very low GL and will satisfy your craving for something sweet. Limit bananas as these are high GL.

oh no! I've been eating a banana a day. dammit. I'm still losing but maybe I'll lose more if I cut those out. Thanks for the tip!!
