I don't think you're eating much more than the rest of us splishsplash... and you can't judge quantities on here

Besides better to be eating lots and lots of veg rather than all the rubbish. Which I've managed to avoid for about 2 days...

splishsplash

This is true - I am eating a much cleaner diet, comparatively speaking. Now I just need to eat less of it :think:

Egg fried rice for lunch with peas and sweetcorn plus a small salad (4). Gluten free peanut and banana muffin for supper with an actual banana.

Totals: 4:0

Hi I would say your lunch could only be two portions at most, as a portion of veg is 80 grams

I guess that depends on how much the OP had... portion sizes have been discussed throughout the thread. I weigh mine, so know what they are. A decent amount of tomato, cucumber, carrot and sweetcorn could well be 4 portions, and the lettuce and spring onion could add up to 5. The OP made the point that they are eating a lot, even if it's not the rubbish they used to eat.

For me, the less said about yesterday the better... but it mostly involved crisps, pizza and frozen yogurt.

Today so far, breakfast was egg, avocado and tomato on potato cakes (2) and a mango and banana smoothie (3)
