This is my take on a healthy McDonald’s BBQ crispy chicken wrap, I love finding takeaway foods and making them better higher protein intake and lower in fats. And then I also have a 99 cheeseburger bagel to top it off

Breakfast & Lunches for this week - approx 26g & 56g protein​:+1:

I was trying so hard to stick to my calories but I was feeling tired and low energy despite getting lots of protein in. I told myself try for another week but I ended up eating lots yesterday and the day before I think as a reaction to this. My calories were 1700 but last week I ran 6 times and did 3 strength workouts in gym.

Even though it’s nutrition consistency week, I’m going to have a week off worrying tracking now to reset just concentrate on have balanced meals. I love the training parts but for me nutrition is definitely the hardest!

Although this will slow my progress and I really want to do well in the challenge, I think I need to do this to come back stronger!

Next week I will try tracking again but give myself couple 100 extra colories because I’m so scared to trigger another binge!

Everyone is doing so well, and even if like me you had some issues, it’s all part of the learning process. I know now to act sooner if I’m feeling very low energy. As much as we think strong will power can overcome anything, our bodies are amazing and will react if something not right.

So for breakfast today just had toast and peanut butter as need to take kids to school, wow what a difference. Already need a top up from a Per4m Protein bar.

Here are my yesterdays

As this app is linked to my fitness here is my base Macros. As I excerice my macros go up, which is nice as I get to have a treat when Im hungry at bed time, but bad if I really want to lose weight

My current tracking system is laughably simple (literally just typing into Apple notes), but I find that the low barrier entry makes it easier to stay consistent.

After a couple of weeks of more granular tracking, I tend to get a pretty good idea of the Kcal/protein content of my ‘go-to’ meal rotation, and then just keep a tabs on that to make sure I’m hitting the important macros. It does kind of rely on having fairly similar meals throughout the week, but I’m a creature of habit so that doesn’t bother me! :joy:

I use Lifesum, it is great as alot of the foods you can scan the bar code and has the info for you, best of all it is a free app

I use this. It’s free. Has a scanner and you can track protein, carb and fat

Plan went off a little yesterday, Wednesday is always a later start and throws me right out. Still got my lunch planned and the same and still within macros. On the whole feel good

Same overnight oats, same baked potato. Fresh biltong for an afternoon snack and steak for dinner. Lovely day of feeding, shame about the weather

Consistent week for calories and macros. Some planned for tomorrow - definitely need to sort tomorrow’s protein out!

I havnt had the time to post daily being a single parent of 4 is hard to keep up. here’s what my week look like… meal prep been key to staying consistent I’ve been sticking to the same meals to lose weight. I have sour dough, eggs & avocado for breakfast im currently 3kg down - my macro split is 145g protein, 47g fat & 150g carbs :heart_hands:

Just got my latest delivery from GSN, certainly helps with the consistency. Sometimes out for work from 05:00-20:00 so having the meals ready to go works great for me.

I do love making a soup at weekends for a few lunches in the week, especially when the weather is chilly.
