  • There is NO information in that link. It's just someone guessing what he might eat to gain muscle. And it is from a couple of years ago.
  • 1. Spicy salmon and lentils Fry a tbsp of curry paste for a minute Add a drained can of green lentils and half a can of water Cook for 10 mins Put 2 salmon fillets on top, cover the pan and leave to steam for 10 minutes Remove fillets, add a bag of baby spinach Cover and cook for 5 mins Mix lemon juice with EVOO Drizzle…
  • BREAKFAST Eggs benedict Croissants LUNCH McD's cheeseburgers and fries with bbq sauce Whole angel cake AFTERNOON TEA Scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam for afternoon tea DINNER: Baked camembert with french bread Rib eye with triple cooked chips, bearnaise and garlic spinach Whole box of Lindt Lindor truffles…
  • Olives are great for a salty hit with very few calories. I also pick at capers, right out of the jar. A crumpet with peanut butter and jam (jelly) is great for a treat Kale chips frozen banana Oatcakes with cream cheese (you can add fruit to make them like little cheesecakes or veggies and lots of black pepper to keep it…
  • Breakfast will be the same all week - Porridge with linseeds and brown sugar Lunches will also be the same all week - Rice salad with lots of veggies in Dinners: Mon: Gammon and paprika peppers on baked potato with sour cream Tues: Spaghetti puttanesca Weds: Broccoli and blue cheese frittata with salad Thurs: Sweet potato…
  • My favourite HOT chilli sauces are made with Naga chillies. They're ferocious but have a really good flavour too. Highly recommended.
  • Porridge oats with semi skimmed milk Light brown sugar Granary bread Banana
  • Crumpets, theyre not so bad in themselves, but I have to have them loaded with butter Soft cheese, brie, camembert, cambozola etc
  • My current savoury faves are: A hardboiled egg, mashed with chopped tomato and a little mayo - about 130cals Mini oatcakes topped with cream cheese and smoked salmon - 4 for around 180cals Slices of mature cheddar with grapes or an apple I think the combo of protein and a bit of fat keeps me fullest for longest.
  • Given her weight, this is impossible. You cannot lose 10% of your body weight in a week.
  • Rare/Medium rare - with garlic and herb butter melted on top and a dish of Bearnaise.
  • I am very often over on my protein, which I don't mind. It hasn't hindered my weightloss at all. I would be more concerned about going over on carbs. Try to incorporate more veggies into your salad and maybe only using half a packet of prawns in future? A good way to ensure you are eating enough vegetables is to track your…
  • I'm not veggie but eat LOTS of vegetarian food. Recent meals have been: Vegetable tagine with cous cous Chickpea curry Spinach and sweet potato dahl Black bean chilli Lentil soup Carrot and courgette soup Vegetable lasagne Black bean quesadillas with homemade salsa Leek and potato soup Loads of pasta dishes: Garlic…
  • I made this one today http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/2016/spicy-peanut-soup.aspx It was lovely, a bit rich though. I also added crushed garlic, finely chopped ginger and some fresh coriander (cilantro)
  • Avocado? Cheese? A slice of toast with peanut butter? Mayo on your salad? A dessert? Come on, it's not hard :)
  • Thank you, lovely folks!
  • Calories, Carbs, Protein, Sat Fat (I'm not too worried about good fats), Fibre, Calcium I don't bother with sodium because so many entries, particularly the UK entries, have incomplete sodium information, so it seems disingenuous to track it. I also don't bother with sugar. Most of mine comes from fruit and I'm not going…
  • My view is that it is harder to maintaina calorie deficit with poor choices, as you are really not getting the nutrition you need. Personally speaking, if I eat 1200 cals of junk, I find I am still hungry for real food with proper nutritional content. It is harder if you don't cut the crap down to a minimum. Eating well…
  • Alcohol, no doubt But if I can have more I'd also include Mayo.
  • 1. Starter of McD's cheeseburgers with BarBQ sauce 2. Roast pork belly, goose-fat roast potatoes, honey glazed vegetables, loads of gravy and applesauce 3. An entire raspberry trifle 4. Huge cheeseboard, all the stinky, runny cheeses I could stuff in my face, with a large crusty baguette 5. I know it sounds stupid but a…
  • Day24 done. I would only have 6 days left but I have a big party to attend on friday night and I know I'll be feeling fragile on saturday. So the plan is to do a day of Level1 on saturday, then my remaining days of Level3. So still 7 days to go!
  • Nailed day 22 this morning. Level 3 is KILLING me, it's so hard on my knees and hands. I'm struggling with all the jump stuff as I am working out while the rest of the house is sleeping mon-weds, so have to do it barefoot. I've decided I'll keep on with level 3 until I can do all the moves straight through with no resting,…
  • Well what is your general activity level in a day? Do you do lots of chores? Have a job that involves being on your feet? THOSE are the things that determine your activity level. I'd base it on that and add your walks in as seperate exercise.
  • It's very simple: *kitten* you daily activity level and enter that in your profile. Any exercise over your normal daily level should be logged Calculate your TDEE in the tools Always eat under that amount NET to lose weight Calculate your BMR in the tools Always eat over that amount NET to avoid slowing down your…
  • It's a bit of a rollercoaster, your diary! You have days when you are 600cals under and then you go over and then eat lots of homecooked stuff, then lots of convenience food. It looks like you're still trying to figure out what works for you. It's unlikely it is a true gain, you probaby have had too much sodium and not…
  • Last 5.30am workout of the week, thank god. I am falling asleep at 9pm every evening! Day 17, 3 more to go on L2. My weight hasn't changed massively, but I can see a difference in my shape and can feel a huge difference in my fitness. Wish I didn't care so much about the number on the scale :(
  • Day 16 today, L2D6, another 5.30am workout. Eurgh! I feel like I must be doing the plank twists wrong, because they seem pretty easy and yet Jillian tells me they are 'killer'. Anyone else find them alright?
  • Hiya, can I join you? I have just finished L2D5, so am halfway through. I am doing it every day, without fail. Today I had to get up at 5.30am to get my Shred in before work. I am getting to grips with Level2 now but still doing the modified plank jacks and squat thrusts, going to try to give them a go, but because I am…
  • Any daal will have a curry flavour, but you could make a thick lentil soup if you want that texture. Here's my recipe. 1 onion, chopped and sauteed 2 carrots, chopped and sauteed 1 tin chopped tomatoes 1 tsp mustard 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp dried sage 250g red lentils 500ml chicken stock 2 tbsp creme fraiche Cook onions and…
  • I do the week ahead at the same time as I am doing my online grocery shop. I meal plan for the family as it saves us money, plus I can balance my meals across the week according to the days I know I can work out more etc. If I didn't I'd end up spending more and I wouldn't know how many snacks I could have during the day.…
