Canteen - Cure Cancer for Kids Fundraiser WEIGH IN

[RubberDuckieGQ]

This thread is such a good idea!! I would have been on board a while ago but reached my goals finally
but here are some healthy versions of normal foods that helped me - I didn't cut too much out, just tried to make it healthier instead

- spag bol: cut out the pasta and had the bolognaise sauce on broccoli instead. Pasta doesn't have much flavour anyway, it's just a vehicle for the sauce I figured and spag bol sauce is pretty healthy if made with lean mince beef
- snacks: replace creamy dips with things like hommus, tzatziki, guacamole. And instead of crackers, have carrot/celery sticks.
- always had healthy snacks that can't go off (mixed nuts, protein bars) everywhere: on my desk at work, in my car, in my bag etc. so that whenever I got hungry (often haha), no excuse to duck into maccers etc
- drinks: instead of normal soft drinks had the diet version, had tea instead of coffees, totally still drank haha or the diet would be unsustainable ... but went for low carb beer/cider (e.g. Strongbow Clear, or Pure Blonde) or wine - less carbs than normal beer or like jack/coke cans

Anyway, just some things that helped me .. I still do a lot of them because it kind of became habit, and then I can eat other unhealthy stuff e.g. if out for dinner, and hope it will balance out
