UPDATE: No:1

End of month one of TDR feeling great 18.6Kgs down after cutting out all rubbish at the end of Jan before starting TDR. On down fall wallet is screaming, had to buy new clothes as everything hanging like a sack of spuds .

This months menu:
Breakfast mango shake and fibre supplement

Mid morning snack vanilla shake with added cinnamon and nutmeg tastes like Christmas. Also add some orange essence now and then stops them getting boring.

Lunch chicken soup, also started adding herbs and spices to stop the bordo ~ Chinese five spice, garlic granules, onion granules etc.

Evening meal banana shake and fibre supplement

2L - 3L of water per day 2L min

Walking more due to work now being a much larger site averaging between 10k and 25k steps per day, feeling great, more energy less fatigue and looking forward to food again in a balanced way of course.

Not going to lie and says it’s easy because it’s not just have to keep up the motivation and moral and push through the bad days, helps that I can chew sugar free gum as started to miss the sensation of chewing and I have a treat of one Pepsi Max caffeine free at the end of the day as treat.

here if anyone wants a chat.

I’m not worried about my cholesterol Every six months the doctor offers me a statin and I politely tell him where he can put it!

My BG would be sky high if I ate that many carbs. I love porridge but sadly daren't risk it anymore

 

[TooSweetForMe]

1 C. Cheerio's, .5 cup lowfat milk, coffee.

Haven't a clue for lunch or supper yet. Too early to think about it yet.

I eat pulses of all kinds, wholegrains and unrefined stuff. It's probably wrong, but provided I don't eat too much I might be ok. I got chromohaematosis (Celtic Disease) and that is why I am a type2 like the rest of my family, so that means you are meant to live on a diet of fish, grain and spinach; and stay off the drink. ‍ I have to have chips with fish

 

[TooSweetForMe]

Peanut butter & cheese whole grain crackers, coffee for breakfast.

Cabbage, potatoes, ham steak, and mandarin orange for lunch.

Haven't decided for supper yet.
