May you please stop looking like a man. I know I’ve not been very kind to you, I know I’ve squatted and dead-lifted and run up hill. But still, please, you can do better than this. Its not the muscle I mind, its the fat.
Yours sincerely, Jessica
muscle vs. fat.
which do you choose?
muscle muscle muscle!
those look wayyy too big to be only a pound…
a very good place to start.
Monday
Low fat cottage cheese with roast chicken leftovers
1.5 jerk chicken breasts
Fat free raspberry yoghurt with 1.5 tbsp oatbran
Soya chocolate milk
Exercise: 25min jog/2min run/5min walk (treadmill); 100m row; 50 length swim; speed shopping!
VERDICT! I did not eat enough this day - I was hardly at home to be able to.
Tuesday
2 scrambled eggs
Low fat cottage cheese
Ham omelette <— I was at a pub and it was only thing on the menu I could eat, forgive the slight egg overload
Tuna steak
1/2 FF raspberry yohurt with <1tbsp oatbran
Soya chocolate milk
Exercise: 27min jog/5min walk (treadmill).
VERDICT! I managed to go to the pub 3 times in one day and steer clear of carbs or fried food. I deserve a willpower certificate.
Wednesday
FF raspberry yoghurt with 1.5 tbsp oatbran
2 scrambled eggs and smoked salmon (yum)
Low fat cottage cheese
Soya chocolate milk
3 chicken thighs in Nandos marinade
FF natural yoghurt with a little honey
Exercise: A little skipping to David Guetta in the living room; 1.5hours pilates.
VERDICT! I missed not running and I’m beginning to worry about the effects of the chocolate soya milk, apparently it encourages fat around the stomach?
It seems the British people just can’t stop piling on the pounds. You’ve seen the newspaper headlines: “Britain’s Obesity Timebomb”, “Half of Britons Obese by 2050”, etc., etc. The United States may be “the fat man of the world”, but the UK is definitely a podgy cousin, with around one person in four classified as medically obese (see Fig. 1, below). Across the Channel in svelte France, by contrast, less than one person in ten is obese, while in Japan it’s less than one in twenty.
