my diet

[lisa&alex]

i did really well for my 1st day..and i already feel better.. but i have a stinking cold.. hoping it will make me loose weight quickly lol...im trying to calorie count i know 'they' say u need something like 2500 for breasfeeding..im trying to get under 2000, anyone think its ok to go lower than 2000? my mum always said to me when ur on a diet try to get under 1500 that way your still feeding yourself but you will be burning fat that way.. just wondering if its ok to go that low? thanks girlies

Im no expert Lisa but id say as your breastfeeding ed still then dont go lower because you have to keep yourslf in energy and have bucketloads more to feed the baby.

What sort of stuff did you eat yesterday?

Ive been having toast or a bacon sarnie for breakfast
munching on bananas inbetween meals
Something big for lunch and if im hungey by 5ish then il have a bowl of soup and drink plenty of water.

Im just cutting the rubbish out and watching my portion sizes.

Me and you are the same size and Iunderstand the need to to lose the weight. like you I want to fit into size 18 trousers desperately!!!

But just take it easy and dont make yourself ill over it, your diet looks great by the way, its really healthy. Better then mine but then im not a fan of fruit but like a bit of veg.
