thanks for the support i am quite lucky, i enjoy salads without dressing, though i do like to chuck a yellow pepper in the food processor every now and then for a sweet dressing (nothing added) my main weakness is alcohol, and i think a kick up my backside to stop me drinking will help :S i've also started using water or lemon juice to fry in aswell, for dishes such as curries and bahji etc. falafels are good in the oven.
i've been good this afternoon and only had a carrot and hummus snack whilst doing uni work. i've had approx 437 calories today so far, i'd like to try at aiming for 1200 cals a day for a week and see if it makes a difference.
not drinking water is a big problem for me, although i find filling small bottles and chilling them makes water more palatable, and i no longer drink coffee and tea (i have a coffee occassionally at my mothers). i think i know enough to eat healthily, i just give in to temptation a lot i love cooking too and baking. its one of the reasons i get annoyed with omnis saying 'as a vegan you must be so limited to what you can eat' er i wouldnt be such a porker if i was limited, i suppose thats one good thing about being a chunky veg*n, people cant say your pale and wasting away
i have managed to get into some size 16 trousers today, how ever i am conscious of my butt crack, i wonder if they are dissapearing up it sorry too much info XD
edit to add:
ak! i managed to go to 2 pubs tonight and have only soda in one and a lime and soda in another. i didnt realise till entering on fitday how blinking fattening lime cordial is. plus i had two glasses of ginger ale, thats bad too. i had some fresh vegetables with pasta for tea and i had it quite late too. *sigh* but i think i hit around 1846 calories (i did have some white bread with tea as well) i think i should just drink water and herbal teas from now on. to be honset i never drink fizzy drinks apart from soda water, so im blaming it all on my partner. his fault kidding, but im glad i didnt succumb to the tempation of alcohol.
