Low calorie but filling ideas
I would love to know all of your low calorie, filling meals that get you through a busy day. I work outdoors so things I can take along, grab and go are better. Baking ideas are also welcome for quick grab and go snacks 😊

Food shopping. What’s on your list?
I struggle with finding low calorie stuff and for the past two weeks fell off the wagon. Mostly due to a number of birthday celebrations and family get togethers. But tomorrow is the start of a new week and I’m determined to start right. I normally plan my meals and wing it but I struggle to keep my calories low. I don’t…

Confused about activity Level and calorie intake- working day and night shift
I am currently working day shift on farm Monday to Friday or sometimes just 3 days a week and night shift at a horse stud 3 5 hour shifts a week. I’m only managing at the very max 10,000 steps yet they are both very physical and active jobs. When at home I do my parenting duties and clean the house but am fairly sedentary.…

Breakfast ideas
Hit me with all your breakfast idea. At this stage I’ll just be having coffee! 🤣 Turns out everything has a decent amount of carbs or fat to it. Even 1 standard poached egg used up over 200kj of my daily intake!

Angry and upset
I’m feeling so angry tonight. We had an amazing dinner within my calories (1200) but I wanted to pig out on the leftovers so bad! We had meatballs and pasta. I’m partly hungry and partly just have a bad attitude. I don’t want to cave. I have a 30kg weight loss goal. I’m more angry that I was always very small and I have…

Takeaway night substitute
Tonight we have family coming for fish n chips. I would normally have battered fish. But obviously that’s not good. What can I eat that will be a good substitute for takeaways? What are your go to meals for things like this? I have 4000kj left. I really don’t want to go over.

Knee to elbow crunches? Help please
My favourite exercise would be the knee to elbow crunches and a fast pace. It burns all my abdominal muscles (they’re in there somewhere) and just feels sooo good! Immediately after this workout I notice my stomach tightens, even if it is only a temporary contraction until the muscles get stronger and bigger. Anyway how…

Homekill?
We raise our own beef and are having homekill sausages for dinner. They are purely meat in the casings. I’m not sure how to log this? They don’t come labeled up with nutrition info. Googles no help.

How to log workouts vs steps
Went for a run/walk today down the farm. Took my phone for some music. It counted all My steps but I was planning on logging it as a workout. Do I just leave it as is and not log it since the steps were counted? I also did 20mins high intensity work out when I got back and did log that.
