A friend of mine said that I would become a vegetable one day because of the amount of fruit & veg I consume in a day.

It’s not meant to be a crash dieting or anything like that but purely for health value due to my IBS. I have to avoid spicy and fatty food, food with high salt and sugar contain. Drink less alcohol and caffeine and carbonated drinks, increase fruit, veg and fibre intake and cut out refined carbonhydrate, I should only eat wholegrain/wholemeal bread, pasta and cereals. And this is what I munching on on a typical working day:

morning: 2 pieces of toast with 2 cups of tea

mid-morning: cup of green tea with a piece of fruit

lunch: salad, piece of fruit and cup of fruit tea

mid-afternoon: tea with a piece of fruit and handful of mixed nuts

before gym: banana and a pot of yogurt (my energy food)

dinner: salad and a glass of orange juice

This is one of my salad lunch, it varies from sweetcorn & tuna, ham, egg, pasta, potato, fish etc etc and my favorite is tuna steak. Sometimes I think I am over-doing the avocado abit though!

I do consider myself of being quite disciplined but occasionally, I do crave for crisps, diet coke or biscuits and I am a sucker for chocolate, ice-cream and wine (why can’t they categorise these as healthy food?)

My evil work colleagues have just put me through a test, they’ve left a box of Jaffa cakes on my desk, but apparently, I have failed as I didn’t touch it. Feeling proud of myself now

I think I deserved a drink tomorrow night! Slug & Lettuce here I come!
