No, no, no, no, no! The horror, the horror! Not the low fat stuff - yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck! The 10% fat variety! Energy 134kcal Protein 4.5g Carbohydrate 6.5g Total Sugars 6.5g Starch 0.0g Fat 10.0g Saturates 6.2g Mono unsaturates 2.8g Polyunsaturates 0.3g Fibre 0.0g Salt 0.20g Sodium 0.08g Not as good for protein as the Total but I usually mix in some quark cheese to get a bit of extra protein, which works out cheaper than the Total. The carbs are still higher, but considering the portion size I don't bother too much about that.
You could always shop at a cheaper supermarket! :evil: Seriously though (20p more expensive at sainsburys than other supermarkets) at £2 a 500g pot, with about 4 breakfast servings for me in each pot, it's a price worth paying!
JWT, I'm enjoying reading the log. I really like that you're putting in info about what you eat, as well. I may start giving that a try. paz, dormindo
Yeah, I think putting what you eat is a good idea, thanks for sharing JWT. I probably won't do that though because to the time.

Its great that you are tracking your diet. Unfortunately there are certain cultural challenges for me and I don't have a clue as to what you are actually eating sometimes. Do you try to track your caloric intake?
Not especially. I have a rough idea of what's in what. The only thing I'm really keeping an eye on at the moment is how much carbohydrate I'm taking in. What I'm putting down is literally what I'm eating and drinking - no more, no less. Edit: I tell a lie. I also have a multivitamin tablet most days. At the weekend I hope to have a bit more time to calculate calories if it adds to the log! It's quite difficult to do precisely with things like stews etc. Anything you don't understand - just ask!
