This is my new regime where I need to stick to about 1000 cals Tues and Thurs to give me some leeway at the weekends. The aim is to bring down my overall TDEE. I didn't do too badly but I was slightly over. I also have not been as carb conscious since my cals are so low. I remember when I lost a lot of weight before I never watched carbs but I did watch cals. If your cals are low enough your carbs should follow:

Bfast: I had banana, greek yogurt, tinned grapefruit, cottage cheese (318 cals)
lunch: cauliflower rice, scallops, homemade tomato sauce, parmesan cheese and some prosecco (559)
Dinner:homemade quiche and tayto snax (385)

Total cals came in at 1262 so I am on a downward trend consumption wise. My carbs are up at 99g but considering how satisfied I am and they mainly came from fruit I'm ok with that. I love having reintroduced fruit and yogurt to my diet. Snacking on peanut butter to keep carbs low just leaves me unsatisfied but I love fruit with natrual yogurt, all day every day.

However, I do have a niggle in my mouth. This is a stressful week - I'm on my own as OH is travelling with work. This means I have to leave for work later in the morning as childminder won't take son before 730. He usually goes at 830am with dad. This means that I leave during rush hour traffic, I have to stay later in work to make up the hours and that means leaving later during rushhour. I'm very stressed as I really want to spend time with my son. His new sleep routine is supposed to start at 6pm so I want to be home for 5pm to spend good time with him. Not going to happen this week which I'm not happy about but Ill get over it. I've started weaning my son off his nightfeeds also, he was awake for 2 hours during the night but hopefully we are coming to an end. He is 11months and thriving so he is using the bottle as a soother and has no ability to get himself back asleep. So we finally saw a sleep expert as I keep getting sick as does OH.
