I bought a pot of porridge thinking it would be ideal breakfast. Checked the label just before I opened it to eat at my desk. 862 kcals. YIKES. I thinketh not.
So no breakfast this morning.
Drinks:
Tesco Sparkling Water, Summer Fruits, 1 litre = 20kcals
Lunch:
2 celery sticks= Bag suggests 32kcal each = 64kcal
+ 30g of Heinz Salad Cream = 100kcal
Snack: Jordans Frusli = 112kcal
Target: 600kcal
Total: 296 kcal
The 5:2 diet: Fasting day 1
Hello!
So I am trying this 5:2 diet after seeing it on the British TV show Sunday Brunch (cos I am middle class and middle aged innit). The Dr on there has claimed that by reducing his calories to just 600 for two days a week. Apparently Roger Banister (of the 4min mile fame) did it and recent science has proven it vastly improves blood tests. Either way let's see if I lose any weight. Starting pic below.
So here is my Fasting Tuesday food diary:
Breakfast: Honey flavoured live Greek yoghurt. 150g (yes I weighed it!). Outside of pot says 220kcals which is 1/3 of today gone!
Lunch: 1 can of chicken soup, Heinz. 204kcal
Dinner: Homemade Pepper Soup with bread. We're guessing 200kcals.
Drinks :
1 bottle of Volvo flavoured water. 4kcal
1 cup of tea with one sugar and semi skimmed milk. ~40kcal
So today I consumed around 680kcal which is only 80kcals over. Remember that a man is meant to consume 2500per day and I probably do that drop is quite impressive.
As I type this at the end of the day I'm peckish but think that is more psychological than physiological. ;)
Btw. Fez. Fez's are cool.
