I had a small wholegrain roll with peanut butter for breakfast, a high protein yoghurt and some walnuts during the day and now about to have some paneer, squash and spinach burgers with broccoli
For the first time in my entire life I'm trying to eat healthily. I've managed about 2 weeks so far with a couple of cheat days. I do get quite hungry and am starting to get sick of the same meals, so who knows if it'll last.
Breakfast:
Granola with seed mix, sprinkling of protein powder + Greek yoghurt
Banana
Snack:
Cashew nuts Apple Protein shake with soy milk
Lunch:
3 eggs scrambled Banana Strained Greek yoghurt
Snack: Dried fruit bar Glass of coconut water Packet of wotsits crisps (bad!)
Dinner will be:
1 Chicken breast with onion, pepper and green beans with brown rice (with 1 egg mixed in).
Desert: 2 rice cakes topped with peanut butter, banana, seeds and a bit of honey
So far Porridge with peanut butter and clementine Then chicken slices on 2 brown toast with butter but I found out that a serving only contains about 8g of protein so I had to add extra slices which I don't usually have to do Going to have my protein shake to compensate soon and an apple as we need to stock up on fruit
**** hoping I didn't trigger anyone with that
Tonight can be cheat day of sorts so a small pizza, chips and some frozen veg with a yoghurt
