Basically, over the last 6 months i've cut out loads of bad stuff i use to eat and have lost about 2 stones quite easilly, but ive been reading up on this alot and im worried that ill start to loose muscle weight rather than fat.
Im now down to 12 stone with a BMI of 24 and feel fitter than i ever have.
I play 3-4 hours of 5-a-side football per week and spend around 5 hours every work day walking about so i think i get enough excercise.
In a normal day i have:
Ham sandwich at 10am, 2 slices of brown bread, no butter a tiny bit or mustard or light mayo so its not dry and a 500ml bottle of water.
Same at 12.30
4.30, 2-3 grilled chicken breasts with some sort of sauce (nandos piri-piri or something spicey) usually around 500 calories and a pint of water.
Around 7pm i have a decent portion of fruit, usually an apple a banana and some strawberrys or rasberrys. And drink water whenever im thirsty.
If i need a snack i usually just have a bit of fruit or a healthy yoghurt.
I only drink on a saturday night and have the odd chocolate bar when im tempted, meybe 1 a week or something.
Does this seem ok? I feel great but it doesnt seem like alot of food!
I use to drink cola with every meal, have chips with my dinner, snack on biscuits and have a big supper at night but i gradually cut all that out!
