Sugar Free Food Diary!

I have finally manages to write my sugar free food diary.  Normally there would be some homemade soups thrown ign during a week but this was a soup free week.  You will see that although every meal is cooked from scratch I do enough to have a couple of times.

Also when I am around I cook some quinoa, lentils, bulgar wheat, barley with vegetable stock and keep them in a tuppaware in the fridge so I have the basis for salads at any time.  This way when I have been training I don’t have to wait for 15 to 40 mins to cook grains for lunch, this takes away the temptation to just grab a sandwich.  You need to be organised but it soon becomes habit.

Please feel free to fire any questions at me about this.

Notes
Cheese I am very aware of portion size so only have small amount no more than the size of a match box
Nuts Same as cheese only eat 6 to 8 at most
Pulses and grains I usually cook 120g raw weight and use half in a salad, I keep the rest in fridge so always have some complex carbs readily available
Milk and yoghurt plain but full fat
