  • Decided after a rather crazy summer I need to take it easy this month and combined with the fact I want to kick the *kitten* I figured not drinking would be a great start. So here goes, the first Friday night for a while when I haven't been out drinking...
  • Oh absolutely. My diet since going vegan (past year) has mainly consisted of carbs. Not that that's necessarily bad but it may take a while for your body to adjust. Also as vegan get used to being hungry a lot. I don't know what it is but my god I'm hungry a lot. I'm hoping that's going to change as I've recently started…
  • Just keep at it! The fact you have the first day a go shows your willingness to do it!
  • Sorry I don't think I understood the point you were trying to make, or you didn't understand me. Thanks all. Nuts are a good idea - may visit holand and barrett next lunch time.
  • Well so long as I'm under my calories for the day it doesn't matter whether I go over my sugar count if it's fruit really does it?
  • But natural sugars from fruit really don't make much of an impact do they when I'm already running at a calorie deficit?
  • Thanks - now I'm taking protein shakes though most days I'm well over my Protein intake for the day. As for sugar in fruits - surely this isn't a bad thing unless I'm eating a shed load of it?
  • To be honest It's only in the last 6 weeks I've made the decision to be far healthier. It's working I feel more alert, I'm sleeping better and have lost a lot of weight to boot. I can't imagine going back to eating processed foods and eating a lot of sugary rubbish.
  • Gym was 7ish this morning. Protein shake was consumed around 9am to aid recovery and to have for breakfast.
  • OK I've made diary unlocked.
  • I'm already taking protein shake for breakfast. Most of my macro nutrients are also met for the day, apart from carbs which I'd like to keep lower anyway. Here's today as an example; View in my diary. Which makes the total for today 1479 with an allowance of 1800 a day or 2005 with today's exercise.
