Day 6: Dinner

Evening drink: very large glass of squash made with fizzy water
Whoops, I forgot to eat earlier. I know that it’s not good to eat so late in the evening.
10:30pm Swede mash with low fat soft cheese

Day 6: Lunch
Posted by Paola
4:30pm Mushroom soup with bread roll + white chocolate mocha @ Caffe Nero
| 1 serving | calories | protein | carbs | fat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 300g mushroom soup | 192 | 4.5 | 13.3 | 2.1 |
| brown bread roll | 128 | 5.0 | 25.0 | 1.0 |
| white chocolate mocha | 414 | 9.9 | 24.5 | 25.6 |
| Total | 734 | 19.4 | 62.8 | 28.7 |
Hmm, turns out that I’d picked the second-most fattening hot drink available.
Next time, I will go for a regular cappuccino made with semi-skimmed milk:
- 37 calories
- 2.8 g protein
- 3.8g carbohydrate
- 1.4g fat
P.S. Out of interest, here’s how a white chocolate mocha compares to a meal of an egg sandwich, a regular cappuccino and a biscotti:
| 1 serving | calories | protein | carbs | fat | fibre |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| white chocolate mocha | 414 | 9.9 | 24.5 | 25.6 | 0.0 |
| egg sandwich, cappuccino, biscotti | 541 | 24.5 | 60.5 | 22.5 | 6.7 |
