Wat a diet... good for her

Haha. All power to you if you can live like this, but I usually assume they just don't enjoy food. I enjoy food too much, whatever I eat I want it to taste good, as well as fill me up. Some people just aren't bothered I suppose. It's the equivalent of people who say "oh I listen to anything really" and I assume they just don't really like music.

What a joyless existence

Billy Connelly did a brilliant routine about living off cabbages to extend your life by 9 months or so. Stuff that, or equivalent , was the verdict. 30 miserable years in exchange for 9 months.......... (the figures may be slightly out, for the pedants amongst you but the gist is the same. Very, very funny)

Wouldn't want to stand behind her in an enclosed space

What a surprise that the food diary of a female juice company owner wouldn't cut it on a golf forum!

 

[IanM]

Lunch was Donna's home made stilton & celery soup, and crusty (home made) bread... I didn't Tweet about on the basis that no one gives a monkeys!!

But I guess, I am not selling anything!

True but that's got to be less than 1000 calories surely and can't be good for anyone long term (or short term for that matter).

Oh i dunno, the brown rice and fish at the end of the day says it could be sustainable for her. Some good fats, protein from the eggs and fish, good oils, nuts and a proper dinner... I have seen worse!

But of course, that was a snapshot of 1 day, would be interesting to see her whole week. Is this a low-cal day? part of 5:2?

I missed the brown rice and fish element - doh! That would bump things up but I doubt by much depending on portion size. I couldn't do it mainly because I wouldn;t actually enjoy most of what she's consuming. I like to chew! Hate drinking calories!!

Plenty folks will be doing similar after Christmas and holiday season I guess
I spent Nov/Dec eating and drinking with no regard to calories 'in'
Jan and Feb at 1000 calories a day Mon to Fri will soon shift it though

Ooof 1000 is low, average male BMR is 16/1800cal. Ok if you are not doing anything physical I suppose!

I have I think finally found a winner for me for diet maintenance, I eat what I want (except no chocolate or biscuits!) but Monday to Friday i only eat between 11:00 and 19:00, Sat and Sun eat anytime until 19:00 (i train long on Sat and Sundays and cant do it fasted) (so 16:8 Intermittent fasting, or time-restricted eating)

It's working really well and stopping me from snacking on the sofa!!

McDonalds and their adverts.

1) The voice over bloke can't say "sauce."
2) The burger on the tv ad has no resemblance to the amorphous splodge that appears in real life.
3) Can you call a place a restaurant if it has no plates or cutlery?
4) If you see litter on the A48, there's a 95% probability it is a McD Wrapper.

Stewth, their marketing guys are effective!

Used to be a monthly thing for me but as of next month it'll be three years since i had a McD's Still have burgers but now either made at home or from an independent burger outlet. I can't say I miss it (well maybe the sausage/egg muffin )

First real snow fall today, perfect for a Fatbike ride. If only I hadn't broken thr zip on my waterproof mtb jacket yesterday

With the railways, ambulances, nurses, border control and now the teachers all striking, does anyone else get the feeling that the TUC are trying to create a stealth Lockdown 2023?
I know it’s been a while since the last one but obviously some are harking back to the good old days of 2020/21.

I extremely rarely visit too, but they now do Sausage, Bacon and egg muffin!! Finally!! (It was awesome, but not worth the 550Kcal.)
