No plans really other then if I get desperate grab a coke zero or something. I stopped drinking coke about a year back and drank nothing but water for about 2 weeks. I had a killer headache the next day but after that it was fine. I think the sugar craving will be my issue which is why I went back to it before

Tbh I'm a big cheese fan so I should include and probably will include some cheese in this diet. Maybe ontop of the chicken (personal favourite) not sure why I missed it off tbf is there a recommended daily amount of cheese I should eat? But honestly I don't mind boring food. Like I've said it's the coke that is really…

I work crazy hours. For example on my early shifts I start at 7 and finish at 4-6 most of the time and I don't get a break. I'm now used to not eating for around the same times as I.F suggests. From what I've read and obviously I'm not an expert but there seem to be way more health benefits then not. I think I also prefer…

I'll check it out when I get back from work. It will be good to see some examples. That's why I kept my new plan quite simple. I just wanted easy to prep similar foods to start with

Believe it or not I can do a tiny bit of cardio. I've looked at the program and feel the first 4 weeks are manageable for me relatively easy but I'm going to take it slow starting from week 1. Thanks

Thanks all for such quick responses. I am currently looking at realistic ways to increase these calories. I honestly think I will struggle to eat that much while intermittent fasting. I suppose it just goes to show how bad my eating habits were before. I tend to wake up go straight so work which most shift tend to be up to…

Okay I will definitely try and mix up the veg a bit more. Truth be told the amount of veg I eat per year normally I would eat in a week on this food plan. Never been a big fan. I love mushrooms but every other veg bores me. I'll grow in some carrots and red onions and maybe some asparagus. Thanks I was unsure whether to do…

Ah okay thanks both. Maybe I should up the calories then. Looking at it on paper though I feel that the 1800 calories of whole ingredient food is alot of food for me to eat. Compared to the unhealthy food I usually eat. Suppose I won't know until I try though.

It recommends 1940 calories to loose 2lb a week. Do you think 1800 is a lot then? And yeah I totally get that it needs to be sustainable. I'm hoping it will be. I'm not really a big binge eater. I drink a lot of sugary drinks which is my problem so if I can get past that hurdle I think I will be okay. That's great though…

Thanks for the quick responses, I did think the changes would be too dramatic to start with but for my whole life I've pretty much been an all or nothing kind of person. If I fall flat on my face after the first week and catch myself drinking a can of coke I will take your advice.
