Okay, so first thing... YES im overweight, and NO, having a chef boyfriend DOES NOT help...
ESPECIALLY when as he is about to leave to go back to work, the words... "ill bring you some key-lime pie home" leave his lips.
We've only been together 5 years! jeez! you know im dieting.
I know he has a lovely heart... and the Key Lime pie does sound amazing, especially because i have never tried it before, and i love limes... but NO!
Usually he is very supportive... although meal times are not fun! he doesn't like any vegetable except peas... oh and corn on the cob if its covered in butter! so im forever having to make separate meals.. which when you work long hours and have a ton of university work to finish anyway isn't appealing in its self. its so easy to say, lets get take out, put a pizza in the oven or just eat sandwiches!
But no more...
Today my food intake looks a bit like this:
Brunch
Scrambled Egg (2 eggs and a dash of Semi-Skimmed Milk)
Baked Beans (small tin)
WW bread (1 piece)
This was more of a brunch then breakfast or lunch, because of it being my only day off until forever... i decided to be lazy and stay in bed!
Snacks
Banana
Multi-fruit Actimel (i swear by drinking one of these a day... you can buy the 0% fat ones which have around 30 calories in regardless of flavour, but for a small bit of pleasure in the day, i tend to drink the normal ones (multifruit one is 77 calories)).
Havent had dinner yet, but it looks like its going to be roast lamb with a jacket potato, gravy lots of veg and mint sauce! yum! and probably a few more bits of fruit!
Also, i have started taking Acai Berry from Holland and Barratts... these are triple strength and are meant to be full of antioxidants and goodness, and also help with weight loss... (but ill let you know)
