talking about diets you chaps

if you fellow enthustasitc types and or are pavroties wanna bes..then get eating proper healthy food  ,,,honest as the day is long if you want a real good diet ,,see the master of nothing [me] but i will put you on a regime that make you look like a fairy...all day and as long too ..put me to the test then ,,,iam sure  i could justfy my fee......hand in glove ...tongue incheek   etc etc

but health is so so much important its really is un real..i crave [if]   i every want kids for them to eat better than my/her dog ..etc i see kids in sains.waitrose,and ms   ..that think a micro meal are a stable diet .....would you feed your child AN e tab??? i wouldnt,would you want your child to taste the organic [flown in] from waitrose.etc

the real act of it is while kids taste non fresh produce ......................they will never know any diffrent...is it just me that really DOES not have a singe time in the day for kids.but want kids to flavour a true humble tasteing of what food [fresh produce] should actually resemble

Every once in a while I actually understand one of your posts!

But that one is a mystery to me!  Does your keyboard have intermittent working keys or is it some form of shorthand that I'm not familiar with?  (in good humour note).

lolololol

i must admit my spelling and grammer is extremly bad even at the best of times ..i never use spell check etc .my keyboard has just been changed recently to a remote one .hence if iam walking around .then i do get the odd letters going astray.because it must have some sort of distance problem with the main cpu....will have to look in to it.

 and there is a new short hand method we some times get up this way on ...i rekon it has something to do with alcohol.

..but i totaly agree   my posts are some of the most unimportant and hard to understand ones ive seen in any forums..but to recap on food one ..in plain english ..was ....all the supermarkets .sell very unsubstantial organic produce thats simply flown in ..and the best organic food is home grown around the dales etc of the uk..and when you go shopping and look at what peaple are feeding themselfs and there kiddys on .is sometimes very shocking .if i ever had the misfortune to have kiddys [joke] then they would be given decent food rather than e numbers  from the start .so they wouldnt know any diffrent and they could grow up heathly...my body is a temple apart from 40 malboros and the odd few drinks

Ahh I see.

Well we have a 2 year old and I confess that she probably eats things that aren't in the book of best food for children.

We rule out as much fast food as we can and she eats a good meal every evening nowadays (most of it still ends up on the walls as she experiments with the physics of spoons, forks and trajectory of missiles...terrible twosomes).

We buy virtually nothing from anywhere but supermarkets though and it does concern me at times.  So much of the UK population is in the hands of the supermarket nowadays - and I'll be the first to admit we readily accept it.

Sainsburys, M&S, Tesco or Morrisons - in fact I can't think of anywhere else we'll have bought food from in the last 6 years.  That's shocking.  Time is a factor for sure, but there is no doubt that convenience is the major player.

That's a relief. I was worried I'd have to stop disagreeing with you! biggrin1

I guess you won't be supersizing from now on then!

You mentioned that you don't drink!! well thats probably half the problem biggrinbounce2.

If only it were that simple!

Yesterday was my first day of high fibre, low fat, boring type eating.

Salad & Jacket Potato for lunch

Two Muesli bar things when I got home

Banana

Bowl of Tomato soap with a malted bread roll thing

Bowl of grapes and banana's in low fat yoghurt

Bowl of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes (not strictly what I should have but they're ok in moderation with the above).

Today has started off with a Keloggs Nutri-Grain Elevenses bar (bit early, but it's breakfast) and will move on to the Salad & Jacket at lunchtime...

I quite enjoyed the food yesterday although I do find Salad's an effort!

Good luck with the new diet. I have to admit I find it a struggle to eat healthilly. My other half keeps commenting on my expanding wasteline, a sign of too many pints, too much chocolate and a love of indian food. Still I've joined the Gym so soon I'll have a 6 pack.....a_smil17

Hmm, the fact we used to eat 4 Chinese takeaways a week has something to do with my problems I suspect...

Oh, and the mountains of chocolate...

Oh, and the crisps...

Oh, and the biscuits...

All gone now though.  Sob.

ouch mr c

thats not food .its rabbit fodder..

i can understand why peaple push those foods  for the healthy side of things .but they allways go to the extremes  .i mean how can one go from a good unhealthy fatty diet etc  one day and the next day.to rabbit food ..its too much of a shock to the system.as iam sure you are well aware off

i love my food with a passion .and since i started to take cooking as a very serious hobby .i have now learnt what makes for a happy meduim

in a well balanced diet .and what REALLY  is good for you and what is bad for you

so ignore that OTT diet your on and strike a happy balance

I wish it were that simple....but the time to try a balanced diet is a bit of a distance behind me!

Let's just say I have had it put to me rather bluntly about what the consequences are if I don't sort it out now.

You mean it is actually possible to eat that kind of stuff?

Coasting, How are you feeling now after a couple of days on the diet? I know what your going through re the diet though.

I suffer from High Colestorol (spelling?) and when the doc showed me the things I could and couldn't eat, it was split into 3 columns. The first was the column I shouldn't go near EVER, cream cakes, crisps, fry ups, fast food etc. The 2nd column was "things you can eat in moderation Mr. White." Red meat, semi skimmed milk (would you believe...), roast potatoes etc. The third column was the eat as much as you like column. Christ, it should have been called the "slit your throat now" column, full of boring healthy salads, veg's, chicken (as long as is grilled with bugger all on it etc. etc. I STILL struggle now to keep away from column 3 let alone column 2 and it's been 7 years!

Get well soon and enjoy the salads.

Sorry to hear your unwell.

You will be glad your employer is paying your private medical insurance, as he will pick up the increase when they learn of this.

Mine is a different diet, but once your condition is stable, I guess it will improve...as mine has.

As for children and food etc, just something to give you a little chuckle.

When my daughter ( first one ) was born, wifey and I decided that she was only going to eat the healthiest and best, as you do.

First born children do suffer, as the new parents practice parenthood and cock everything up.

Our mistake was "she isnt going to drink soft drinks, squash etc, full of all those sugars and E numbers ", so once she was old enough, we only gave her pure natural fruit juices, just as nature intended, and promptly removed all the enamel from her milk teeth !

She's ok now of course, a teenager...gawd, number two and three have had a much easier ride.

Best Wishes

Nigel

That rings true.  Our 13 year old is a true food-junkie and we're doing our best not to make the younger one go the same route.

You do your best as parents, but I remember mine trying to do that too....and look where it landed me with my liver...!!!

(I never did like liver see.  Maybe I knew something...)
