Day 1 of my 3 month challenge

Hmm, you know how sometimes things look good on paper, but following it is a bit more tricky. Well, that is what I experienced on my first day of my new challenge. BUT I know this is simply growing pains and soon I will be clued up on what it is all about.

Eating went quite well.... until about supper time....

  • Meal 1: 1 boiled egg with 2 servings of cherry tomato
  • Meal 2: 0,5 meal replacement shake
  • Meal 3: 120 grams tuna (packed in water) with 3 servings cherry tomato and a banana
  • Meal 4: meal replacement bar
  • Meal 5: Ground meat with 2 servings brussel sprouts and 1 serving mixed veg. I also had half a roti (Indian bread)
  • Meal 6: 2 glasses of coke
Now I need to explain... the roti was not part of what I was supposed to eat and the coke definitely not on my list of items to drink. BUT I am a coke addict and the roti was so fresh...

One thing I have learnt is that I will definitely not buy a meal replacement bar again - the calories are too high and the fat content is also surprisingly high. Another lesson - you can eat a lot of veggies, it fills you up and is really good for you.

According to fitday, the days totals came to 1,941 calories (definitely too high) with the carbs/protein/fat breakdown being 44/29/27.

For exercise I did not do my 20 minute walk, I only did 10 minutes. BUT I am glad I at least did something;-)
