To kick PLATEAU firmly in the “nuggets” (thanks Marina, you are awesome!) I’ve decided to do a seven day food and exercise diary.
Breakfast (300 cals)
1/2 cup of dry organic porridge (oatmeal) cooked in water + teaspoon of sugar+ 2 strawberries
1 apple
Lunch (700 cals)
1 large new potato baked with 1/2 teaspoon of vegan margarine
1 whole head of romaine lettuce
1 cup of haricot beans
A few small tomatoes
Small pinch of sea salt
Snack (25 cals)
1 raw carrot
Dinner (525 cals)
1/2 dry cup of brown rice cooked in water with 1 teaspoon marmite and a couple of sliced mushrooms
1/2 bunch of asparagus lightly cooked
small pinch sea salt
Drinks (50 cals)
Several cups of water
3 cups of weak black tea
Cup of almond milk
Exercise (calories burned 500)
60 minutes walking (I walked 3 miles in 60 minutes)
15 minutes kick boxing workout
DAILY CALS: 1600 cals
CALS BURNED: 500
Hmmmmm- that doesn’t seem enough calories to me… what do you think?
Tomorrow morning I’ll be up bright and early to make a 1940s recipe so I have something substantial and yummy to come home to..
