What did you eat yesterday??

itsallaboutheL

I was thinking about the state of my nutrition last night..

I have an awful diet, i know i do, and i know what to do to fix it but.....

It got me thinking that it would be interesting to see what others diets are like, a compare and contrast exercise if you will..

I think the most impartial way to do this is to outline what you ate yesterday as it'll catch people unawares, as anyone who has helped others with their diet knows, if people are aware in advance they will change their eating habits for the day in question...

sooo... me yesterday

2 cheese sandwiches
pint of milk
coffee
3 biscuits
2 slices of Four Star
Spag Bol (about 400grams of mince)
Litre of Milk

Yesterday was a training day

hello stranger...re: diet, how very diciplined of you

hello dahling That's what I eat Monday through Friday without much variation - I make up lunchboxes first thing in the morning and store them in the kitchen in work. Weekends can be a different story though and I tend to eat whenever the mood takes me - that might be a lot or a little though and I would still eat decent stuff, just more or less of it. One thing I'm not getting enough of right now is green vegtables, but when I start eating more salads again that'll be remedied quick smart.

I've really lost the taste for takeaways and calorie heavy foods.

Except chocolate. I do love my chocolate

i would be slow to post my own diet, mainly in case anybody looking to lose weight might think it was a good diet! I train hard most days so I can get away with it to a point. I eat loads of vegetables and have porridge and fruit for breakfast but after that it goes downhill, some days it would make the diet posted by L look good

edit: go on so, here goes:

7 am - banana and coffee
gym ...
9 am - big bowl of porridge, brown scone, apple.
11am - latte
1 pm - potato, carrots, brocolli, chicken, gravy and coleslaw
5 pm - pack of skips + wispa gold + diet coke
7.30 pm - rashers, tomato, beans, and lots of toast
8 pm - two cans of heineken
11.30 - bed

It's a lot of effort and a lot of cooking. I have to cook everything in bulk otherwise i'd never be away from the kitchen. And the biggest part is the financial strain. Costs me a fortune. Got a good deal on my weekly meat and eggs from the local butcher though so it's not as bad as it could be.

Some food, including half a box of chocolates. Making the 8.55pm run to Supervalu for the half priced roast chicken clearout later.

I'm convinced brasil nuts contain chocolate. Even the plain natural ones taste like there is chocolate in them to me. I could eat them all day.

Khannie

Trying to remember....brain's not functioning too well on the low levels of sleep.

Whey + oat pancakes + coffee for breakfast
apple at around noon
late lunch (child related) beef stew + 2 slices of brown toast
coffee + biscuit
evening meal: small amount of macaroni cheese, lots of brocolli, lots of sweetcorn
greek yoghurt for evening snack

Not bad overall. Bit low on protein but I wasn't training yesterday.

Transform

flapjacks, protein shakes, oatcakes with peanut butter and real butter, 2 homemade burgers with a ton of braised red cabbage, 2 squares of dark choc with peppermint tea.

4 or 5 eggs scrambled for breakfast. Awesomeness in a bowl. Throw in some bacon or smoked salmon for a fancier touch.
