A skinny latte from Costa (I was in work and the boss popped in with coffee for us)

I REALLY fell off the wagon yesterday & ate over 500 caleries extra. Been averaging 1200/calories/day since 10/03/18 & not been hungry. I’ve been losing a steady 0.25 stone a week. Weighed myself today & I’ve put on a tiny bit, about a pound or two.

I went wrong with the salad. I’ve never eaten much of them in the past. Chicken ceasar, potato salad with lettuce, cold poached chicken & dried fried mushrooms. And those are surprisingly, to me, high calories too.

The rest is pretty typically what I eat now. The only thing that’s changed is bigger breakfasts & slightly smaller lunch & dinner. So, the calories are a bit more evened out over the day.

My breakfast Novorapid was increased by 1 unit from 7 to 8 after seeing my hospital team on 22/03/18 so, yesterday was only the 2nd. day of the new dose but, BS is coming down.

Does anyone have salad suggestions that are not too high in calories but, still fill you up?

Avocado (small, c.65g), king prawns (c.65g), cucumber, tomatoes, rye bread (c.25g), hummus

add some olives, artichoke or Mediterranean veg for a bit of variety
