  • Menu check please

    I lost 4.7KG in week 1 then nothing for 2 weeks and I am in extended induction. I am disciplined and have not knowingly cheated except for 2 glasses of wine and a scotch after week 2. Seriously I would appreciate some help in checking I am not eating something I should not;

    Breakfast; Bacon and eggs or some other meat such as steak always with eggs
    Lunch; normally taken at work would be, Roman lettuce or the other types stated in the book. I do not weigh the veg but it would typically be 5 or 6 leaves and raddish, cucumber and peppers. This is accompanied by a small amout of cheese ( I mean 4-5 thin slices)and cold meats. Other times it could be a hot meal of just meat and peppers
    Dinner; Again meat and maybe some veg. Occasional treat would be sugar free jelly with cream. I probably took a bit too much cream but now limit it to the tablespoonfuls as given in the book.

    I have read the definition of a stall but want to make sure I am eating correctly. All help would be very much appreciated.

    Re: Menu check please

    It is very normal to see a pause like you are seeing. But if things are right it will get moving again. Make sure you measure too because there are times when we lose inches and not pounds.
    I thought your menu looked good. You do not give quantities so it is hard to say about amounts. Make sure you eat enough.

    Some things to possibly improve:
    veggies: these should be measured or counted on fitday so you know your daily carb count. Aim for those 3 cups. Make sure you have some at supper as well.
    Meats - processed meats can contain sugars. So if your cold meat is processed watch for that.
    Jelly - it is likely sweetened with aspartame - that can be a staller for some
    Cream - make sure this is home made - store bought cream is full of sugars and stuff
    Water = drink some all day
    Exercise - are you doing any

    And I assume those numbers are for kilos?
