Hi everyone,

starting next week i'm going to starting eating a lot healthier, almost clean eating and i have planned out my breakfast and lunches all ready and i was wondering if i could get advice:
(i work at mcdonalds and can only store my food in a fridge, so it cant be 100% and i need coffee because i wake at 4:30!)

BREAKFAST:
Monday - Coffee, Wholemeal English muffin with peanut butter and a bowl of oats.
Tuesday - Coffee, 2 weetbix blocks and a slice of wholemeal toast with peanut butter.
Wednesday - Coffee, natural Greek yoghurt, muesli and berries
Thursday - Coffee, fruit salad and a slice of wholemeal toast with peanut butter.
Friday - Coffee, greek yoghurt (flavoured) with a toasted wholegrain wrap with hummus over the top.

LUNCH:
Monday - Coffee, Wholemeal sandwhich with ham, cheese & carrot. and an apple.
Tuesday - Coffee, 4 rice cakes with hummus, and a handful of grapes.
Wednesday - Coffee, slim pasta with bolognese sauce.
Thursday - Coffee, 6 vita wheat biscuits and fruit salad.
Friday - Coffee, cold chicken breast salad (lettuce, carrot, cucumber, grape tomatoes, and cottage cheese)

does anyone have any advice for me?!
i would love the help!

    You seem to have a good foundation. The only recommendation I could make would be to split the meals into smaller meals.

    ie.
    Breakfast - Coffee, Wholemeal English muffin with peanut butter
    Brunch - bowl of oats

    Lunch - Coffee, Wholemeal sandwhich with ham, cheese
    Dinner/Snack - Carrot and an apple

    Eating more often will keep your metabolism going, and with a slim diet it will help you feel fuller throughout the day without having such long intervals between meals. Only eating twice a day means you are waiting 12hrs+ between meals which isn't that great for your body (but I am not a expert so take it with a grain of salt)
