    Hey,
    I have recently started going to a personal trainer and I am trying to lose weight and get fitter.
    I have been keeping a food diary the last few days and didnt get to show it to him today (car broke down and i left diary in car to get lift to meet p/t).

    The following few days are what I call good days, so i am HOPING they are as good as I've tried to make them.
    I'd appreciate your input.

    SORRY FOR LONG POST-just trying to give ye a spectrum:P

    Slice of wholemeal toast with a wee bit of coconut oil.
    Ginger Lemon infusion tea drink
    Nectarine.

    11AM- mint tea

    Lunch- 3 Egg omelette with a slice of ham, tomatoe, smidge of onion, few mushrooms and topped with some feta cheese (nyom), i used a pump dispenser to mist a bit of olive oil on the pan.
    Muller light Yogurt (i know they arent real proper yogurt but its only 80 calories and i consider a bit of a treat)

    Dinner- chicken breast, tsp of green curry paste, half tin of coconut milk (light-watered down version), chopped carrot, mushrooms, onions and peppers.

    Well done you on the new healthy life plan. I have nothing else to comment on as reading all the healthy food makes me feel ashamed that I dont eat enough protein!

    4 slices of brown bread and a white roll in a day seems a tad excessive.

    i think you all ready know where your going wrong in each day.

    I see your point there Ntlbell
    I usually dont eat much bread, ESPECIALLY not white and overnight my throat was all scratchy and hacky....
    Mostly I'd have wraps (brown)

    Is the bread the worst part of what i posted? Ive had two bits of brown toast today but i dont always have it.... i could go a DAYS without it....
