Like I'm too embarrassed to actually do a food diary for today cuz I just ate and ate and ate. Bread, fruit, nuts, cereal...I might call myself a herbivore but today I am, as my brother would say, an omnomnomnivore.
AND I actually read the nutrition details for cashews today and 2 servings (which isn't very much) is 20% of your daily calorie intake...WTF! So today is the day that cashews are officially banned from my diet; I just bought a massive bag of roasted ones yesterday but they'll keep. Holy jesus, I knew they're high in fat (good fat!) like avocados but didn't realise quite how calorie dense they are. And I eat heaps! No wonder I'm not losing any blood weight.
This is also day 3 of no sugary teas - really should break that habit and stick to peppermint. Can't say I've had no sugar though...I bought a bar of Lindt dark chocolate as a treat yesterday (and to see whether I liked it) and I've gone through half a bar in less than 24 hours! Whoops. But that's the first and last time I do that.
The only other thing that needs assessing in my diet at the moment is bread, but I think I'll focus on cutting out nuts and sugar first, then work on the bread in a couple of weeks. Need to find some healthy snacks stat, I'm getting sick of oranges and bananas!
Activity - 1 hour cycle ride, 1 hour long stroll along the beach, 1 hour on the treadmill and a yoga sesh :)
I'm really hoping that once I say bubye to nuts and added sugar (won't be avoiding it completely, I can't not eat fruit, and also it's just in everything...6 teaspoons in 1 can of baked beans!) I'll see results. Everything else is ok; my diet is varied and healthy, I'm exercising heaps, I'm on my feet all day most days of the week...something's gotta give! Just annoyed I've been eating nuts from day 1 under the impression they're healthy!
