20 posts and only 2 recipes
This was tried last year hope it does better this time round cos it is a good idea to bounce ideas about, I often end up eating the same things over and over!
Just to get going here's one of my snacks an 'inbetweeny' so to say.
Cottage Cheese mix
200g Low fat CC
5/6 cherry toms (or a medium vine tom) chopped small
Splash of sweet chilli (plus a good dash of hot sauce for me)
2 Rivita Pumpkin & oat seed crackers broken up
Fresh black pepper
Cals-299 / Carbs-36 / Fat-6 / Protein-26
Can I suggest if you're using MFP you post the macros of the recipe

Just had it - swapped the cream for Creme fraiche and trebled up on the chilli - more madras strength. Very good with basmati rice.

Quark is a v low fat soft cheese, bit sour if eaten by itself but mixed with other stuff is ok.
Tasted ok, not exactly like fruit and nut but quite nice healthy desert or snack.

Not solid just quite thick and cowld.
Quantitys would all depend how much you want to eat because there's not really much calories in quark, I used to 25 gram scoops of protein power wich is about 180cals (tiny bit of water btw) then about 10 almond and some raisins.

Might make that korma this week (after my lasagne and the honey glazed salmon from the SMB thread!)
Would be interesting to know how the books are like, compared to just looking up the recipes online like the korma. Is there much more and are they fairly straightforward?

Todays food intake;
Breakfast: 1 small bowl of wheetabix minis
Lunch: glass of whey diet shake
Tea: tin of heinz vegetable soup and 1 slice of brown bread.
(1 cup of tea no sugar, several glasses of water throughout day)
Should I cut out the bread?
First day ever that I've been on a diet. 14 half stone, need to be 12 stone again.

That sounds like far too little food! How many calories in all that?
I don't like diet shakes personally, because I think they're impossible to implement long term, and you don't want to just be "going on a diet" for a short term, you want to be eating more healthy fuels top, so it won't just go straight back on again.

That doesn't sound like enough food. Bizarre as it sounds, you still need to eat enough food to lose weight.

I have no idea
I know the diet shake has 170 calories.I'm doing a 1 hour cardio session at the gym every weekday morning before work too.
Yep, you're not eating enough. I reckon all that food is around 800 odd calories. Men usually need around 1800 calories as a base (although more qualified people on here can verify that).I have no idea

Are you using a calorie app like My Fitness Pal? They're usually really good and you enter the food in it as you eat it and it'll tell you how many calories in it. it'll set you a daily goal to aim for.
Basically, work out your BMR (how many calories you need just to exist) here - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/tools/bmr-calculator
That'll tell you how many you burn just by sitting on the settee all day. Any exercise you do will increase that number.
If you eat fewer calories than that number you'll lose weight, but as Becs posted you shouldn't eat too few, or you'll risk bottoming out or slowing your metabolism down. 500 calorie deficit each day will be a 1lb loss per week.
