What have you eaten today?

Nothing yet, bar a cup of tea. It's a fasting day

aka stay offa this thread, then!

I've now also had a cup of tea with 2 chunky home made rusks* for dunking.

*They're sort of like biscottis. Whenever I take them in to work, people exclaim "Rusks for adults?!" and then scoff them all.

3 cups of real coffee, no sugar, no milk. That is today's ration.
Half a banana, half a Bran bar.
Small baked potato for lunch with a sprinkle of low fat cheese, and spinach salad.

Am trying to avoid bread and pasta, semi successfully but feel better for it. And of course, no meat, no fish - ever.

So far I've had porridge made with skimmed milk and topped with raspberries and pumpkin seeds washed down with a mug of Tic Toc tea. Sitting here with another mug of tea and a shortbread biscuit.

Just one Sook?!

Envy at your willpower that is. Well, of the biscuit as well of course.

I've stopped buying biscuits altogether now as they where too tempting and used to shout to me from the cupboard,since doing that mr.g has lost 2kg. poor man.

2slices of home grown, home dried apple and just about to have large china mug (decorated with the human skeleton and musculature) of coffee with semi skimmed milk.

First meal of the day [well, haven't been up all that long ]; I've had several ups of tea and coffee though [with a tiny amount of sugar in the coffe] but did have a glass of Ribena when I woke up. Bet that had half a pound of sugar in it .

Lunch was home-made chunky mushroom soup with a small dollop of low fat creme fraiche and a toasted cheese (Edam) Warburtons thin. They're so quick and easy in those toasting bags.

I haven't even thought about what to do for supper.

Oatcakes and Brie. Apple to follow. Have run out of veg stock powder so haven't made soup this week.

Had All-Bran with 6 dates and a cup of tea for breakfast. Went to library and decided I might need sustenance as I wasn't likely to get home before 2pm, so I took my new library book to the cafe which is attached to the library. Had a black pudding roll (my favourite). It was as dry as a bone but I ate it all nevertheless (because I'm greedy by nature), and now I have terrible indigestion.

River, I'm on holiday!

Lunch

Britvic orange and lemonade
Minute steak sandwhich (minus the bread )
A very, very small bowl of crisps - slightly soggy.
Huge salad

Now going to order Suffolk Cream tea and sit and watch the sea!

Have you noticed how we all seem to choose our meals by what needs using up rather than what we'd like. I think that is the difference between the youngsters who waste food and the older "waste is a sin" generation. They actually eat what they fancy!
I had just a cup of tea for breakfast then a boiled egg and slice of toast then an elderly apple for lunch. For dinner I'll be "using up" the veg in the fridge.

Have a lovely holiday Kitty
I've had rather a long day as it started yesterday in Sydney and now it's still yesterday in Hong Kong. Muesli and cup of green tea for brekkie; chicken salad sandwich for lunch; banana and macchiato with 2 small biccies at the airport; dinner on the plane - fish and salad, fruit and the dreaded chocolate tart, cup of lemon tea; then 4 hours later another dinner was served; I had the grace to refuse. Wonder what I shall get for the 3rd dinner on the next flight. Think I shall refuse again. Next week, it's defo back on the 2:5.

I had a bacon butty ( usually have cereal without sugar) and mug of tea with sweetner.
Mug of coffee with sweetner
Cheese sandwich, a handful of Pringles and mug of coffee.
I'm planning sausage n mash for dinner.

No guilt

Orange juice, yoghurt, muesli, coffee for breakfast. Half a cheese and tomato panini with salad for lunch (shared with friend, "A panini and two plates, please" - the last of the big spenders) Have just munched on dry-roasted peanuts and had a cup of coffee. Probably lentil/veg soup and bread and butter tonight.

Have just eaten a small Toblerone, purely medicinal of course. Had toast and Marmite at lunchtime.

Have just eaten a large teaspoonful of Waitrose marmalade with ginger out of my (hidden at back of cupboard) jar.

Needed a lift.

So far today: A bowl of mixed Fruit & Fibre and SPecial K with red berries.

Two fried eggs on a slice of wholemeal toast. I was going to poach them, but I don't know how fresh they are, and I have no white vinegar... well, I do, but I used it for some cleaning jobs, so the bottle is tucked away in a cupboard with other similar bits and pieces.

Some bickies with a mug of the old Assam (no milk) just now...

Besides my breakfast which I have already posted I had a ham and cheese sandwich for lunch with half a scotch egg and a portion of salad? Later a cup of coffee a fig roll biscuit and an apricot. I am type 2 diabetic so have no sugar in drinks and obviously have to watch. Y overall sugar intake but I love a biscuit with a hot drink and the dietician says you can have up to 2 biscuits a day of certain kinds. Fig rolls are one of my favourites and they are on the approved list Hooray!

I had Special K high protein cereal mixed with some Rice Chex( they both need to be eaten) with almond milk and 1/2 banana on top. Also a small oatmeal muffin from a batch I made on Sat.

Breakfast: Yogurt, muesli (we make our own so we know what is in it), tea. Oatcake with coffee mid-morning. Lunch: Vegetable soup, brown roll, apple and satsuma. Dinner: Spicy chicken leg (Madhur Jaffrey recipe), brown rice vegetable pilau.

porridge. 2 baps made with remains of roast chicken. another one with my super chunky marmalade.
The final bits of chicken are going to be curry later. with a naan bread and home made yoghurt.

So far its my 5:2 day. One pear 3 satsumas. A calorie controlled vegetable omelet coming up.
I proper cup of tea. 2x mint tea, 1x Ginger & lemon tea. I cup of Miso paste.
