Mrs Quiggles Food for Thought...

[Mrs Quiggle]

This is going to be my new foody section where I can post my daily menu's and a few recipes ad hoc. I might not post every day, I'm not disciplined enough for that and I'm absolute rubbish at blogs.

Lots of loving

Kate when you have your desert, do you have it straight away , ie with your dinner or do you wait... as i havnt been having a desert, but it does say on my diet sheet dessert lol

 

[penelope1008]

To start with I couldn't do both at once infact I didn't bother with pudding until the last couple of months to start it was a bit of yoghurt after my lunch not much. Now I have a yoghurt or fruit & Greek yoghurt after tea as well. It's never much about 100g yoghurt & a few slices of tinned drained peaches etc. depending how good the protein content of my tea is affects how quickly I eat my pudding sometimes it's 20 mins or so later other times it's a few mouthfuls at a time over a few hours, other times I can eat it immediately. I use my fitness pal as you know & as I plan my tea etc to make sure I get my protein in for the day & within my 1000cal limit if I can. I use it as a guide to make sure I keep to my targets.
Hope that helps I know I'm further along than you but that's how I deal with it.

 

[Mrs Quiggle]

I don't usually have p.udding Rayne as I can't usually fit it in and we don't eat puddings much in our house if I'm on a diet (poor things lol) but I'd brought these strawberries in the market so had about 3 about 10 mins after my main course. They did really fill me up though and I got the foamies a bit. Think if I had a pudding again I'd leave them a while till afterwards.

[Raynebubble]

thankyou, we have never really had puddings, well its only me and my daughter... sometimes she has a choc mouse... but een when i wasnt dieting we never really had puddings... so i will carry on not having one then lol.... when i start taking my acid tab again i may take it with some yogurt so will prob have a few more spoonfulls after dinner. I only like weight watchers vanilla and the caramel ones so i will have some of that x
