Hello everyone,
New member here Today is my day one of calorie counting. I lost 20 lb after birth of my second child 13 years ago by counting calories, but it was so long ago that I am not really sure what I did back then in terms of food selection.
I guess getting old not fun for us women, when it comes to weight management....
During last year I have gained 13 lb and all of this weigh is in my belly, which is very strange. I almost look pregnant. Increase in waist 10 cm!!!
I have created little plan for myself and would like your opinions as I can see so many of you ladies doing such a great job losing weight!
Breakfast: black coffee ( I never eat breakfast so I will keep it this way)
Lunch: multi grain toast with turkey or pita with tuna or sandwich with egg salad
Dinner: frozen meals with salad (I know it is not super healthy option, but I am working full time and really have no time in the evening to measure and count my dinner).
Goal for the day 1,200 cal.
I will stop having my 2 glasses of wine with dinner until I lose weight, right? Does wine affect weight a lot?
I am not a big fan of fruits, so I don't have a lot of it in my diet and fructose is not very healthy from what I understand, just like sugar.
I have gained weight with a lot of snacking after dinner (potato chips, nuts etc)...that must stop as well.
Any comments and suggestions?
