I eat breakfast at my desk and some days I take in a bowl of shredded wheat (packed up night before) and I have almond milk in the fridge at work. Other days - I take yogurt and a wee tub of fresh fruit. I'd also recommend cereal bars - the raw fruit kind with no added sugar - they're made of just pressed fruit (don't let…

Sunny Aberdeen! Glorious outside today!

Hiya!

I go over the excess carbs and sugar mainly from my fruit intake as well. There is so much information around about good fruits and bad fruits - I go by the 5 a day rule for fruit & veg - ok maybe 6 a day! But with a healthy exercise regime I figure once I can burn off the calories it should be ok?

I found depending on the cereal I have on mornings with low sugar content, I feel better and fuller for longer. For example, Cheerios - I feel hungry mid morning, however if I have shreddies - I don't feel hungry until later (11 - 12 noon).

If I aim to do at least 60 mins per day - maybe alternate with 40 and 30 minute strength training during the week?…

Silly me, but how do I allow you to view my diary?

Pack stuff like cereal bars, dried fruits, nuts etc. for camping trip. For beach trip, when I'm away and we go out for drinks, I always go for gin w/ slim line tonic or wine spritzers/prosecco/champagne. As for foods - salads, grilled meats for both beach holiday and camping trip. Happy hols!
