Can you not make a packed lunch to take with you to work? A simple pasta or rice salad or a decent hearty sandwich? That way avoiding shitty MacD's or vending machine crap. Snacking on fruit or raw veggies is also good for vitamin intake etc. I'd nibble on those over Go Ahead bars etc, esp when at work.

I'd be inclined to go do a shop and stock up on things you can cook and freeze. Makes life much easier in the week then.

I found this eating well for me and baby ok, but I did cut out all caffeine and have had to give up my steak blue and things like liver which I adore, but otherwise I make sure I eat well and get all my nutrients from my diet. I haven't eaten fast food (or drunk fizzy drinks) in years (I think it would be about 5 years since my last Bic Mac or other such junk food) until the weekend when we went to Ikea and had lunch at Burger King. I had a Whopper and felt sick eating it and felt like crap for the rest of the day. I was longing for a ciabatta with chicken and ham or some such instead. The fries were disgusting and I could really taste the fat when I ate them. I didn't have a fizzy drink but asked for bottled water instead.
As we left I made my hubby swear we would never do that again

 

[abcd1234]

i dont tend to eat the mcdonalds tbh i've never been too keen and last time my OH had one i nearly pucked at the smell! I've also never really liked fizzy drinks but i've got a real thing for coke atm. I go home for my lunch in work it's just thay i get very hungry around 11 and feel sick and faint if i dont eat, i did have some special K bars but they're so small and i left them at my friends and he ate them all (typical bloke) i've always had a problem with food and eating proper meals, not really sure what it is

geordie lass - this will make you feel better. There's no such thing as full fat Coke, because it contains very little fat. Just LOADS AND LOADS of sugar, which of course your body will convert to fat if you don't need the energy. Oh and it rots your teeth too.

Actually, maybe that won't make you feel better...

 

[debecca]

Today's chod:

Breakfast - Sultana Bran with semi-skimmed milk.

Breaktime - 2 bourbon biscuits and a packet of mini Cheddars.

Lunch - Spinach and feta cheese pastry thing (YUM - I do like school dinners sometimes) with mashed potato, broccoli and carrots. Er, followed by apple crumble. Oops.

Afternoon snack - Pear, clementine and choc orange bar

Tea - yes, I'm Northern and call it tea. We're going round the inlaws cos Jim isn't back from working in London until 8 - and it's homemade meat and potato pie type thing with veg.

Drinks - I've already had a pint of red grape juice, a litre of water and 2 small cups of lemon squash.

Actually that doesn't look too bad written down
