I have no idea how many calories i eat- and it is quite liberating.
My dietician (i am in Australia so i guess that is the equivalent of your NUT) focuses on Low Cab High fat with no calorie counting or weighing- rather working for a hunger level of "satisfied'
On a typical day i would eat the following
Breakfast- Egg, ham and cheese omelet.
Lunch: Roast Lamb and veg Cauliflower, brocoli, Beans and aspargus.
Dinner- Spaghetti Bologonese (instead of Pasta i would make zucchini noodles)
I serve these up on a plate that is the size of a bread plate.
I am a 11 months out and have lost 40 Kg (88 pounds) and have about 14 pounds to go.
I sometimes add in a piece of fruit if i am hungry.
In terms of treats- i still have them (although my taste buds changed post surgery and i don't enjoy sweets as much.)
