Metabolic rate calculators show I need to make sure I'm getting under 3k calories for slow starter loss.
Pushed up the resistance on the exercise bike and the weight I'm lifting, and I'm the one who asked the trainer to do it instead of him telling me :) He wants me to eat more at lunchtime because I'm apparently not getting enough so I'm filling up on junk later.
Apparently cutting out the cheese doesn't help because it leaves me lacking protein, so I'm cutting it down without cutting it out and adding some mixed seeds instead.
Also tried beansprouts, but they're weird and icky so I don't want to resort to them. They look like lines of snot and leave a weird aftertaste.
lentils might be good!!! theyre very protein and VERY tasty i know you've been working on fish-things but canned fish like tuna or sardines can be mashed up and mixed with a smidge of mayo and are very tasty too
I really don't think I'm at the stage of eating canned fish. I used to feed it to my ferrets and I hated the smell, and I don't like soggy foods. Also I'd rather not eat flesh products more than once a day, I feel bad about not being able to be vegetarian as it is.
I hated porridge last time I tried it, but this time I tried with half as much water and it's pretty good - at least with a splash of milk to break up the gluey-ness. Sludgy food is gross, it just needed to keep a bit of bite. Also, nuts are a lot nicer when roasted.
Doing pretty great! I'm way ahead of where I was a few months ago. Still getting nasty mood drops after exercising, need to keep an eye on those.
