All this week I’ve been on the 1200 calorie plan.  I think it’s step 4 but I’m not sure.

I haven’t weighed any of the food items before eating.  As a general rule I’ve eaten good quality meat and broccoli, green beans and cauliflower with every meal.  As you can imagine it’s not been the most inspiring of menu’s although, to be fair, I’ve had worse.  I bought some mustard (the lowest carb one I could find) and a pepper and chilli grinder to spice things up a bit.

Except for the bottle of wine on Friday and the vodka and Princes low sugar juices on Saturday this week’s been pretty low key.  I shared a bag of sour jellies at the Rock Band gig mid week and had some nuts last night.

On the subject of nuts, I tried a bag of roasted and salted soya beans, which were next to the nuts in tesco.  Looking at the stats they are pretty good.  Low fat and carbs, high in protein and fibre.  They taste like a cross between pistachio’s and those roast corn things and are quite nice.  My Noot says I should eat some almonds if I’m peckish but I couldn’t find any.  I’d be interested to see how they stack up against the soya beans.

Anyway, my back’s righted itself so I’ll be down the gym again next week.  I’m going to stay on the same eating plan next week as well.
