LoFat Diet – Day 9
By danderma | February 14, 2011
Today i wanted to cheat and go have lunch at Carluccio’s… i actually arrived at Carluccio’s only to find that they were closed for their Grand Opening tonight… so i came back home to my LoFat lunch… astahal 3shan i don’t cheat…
Then i didn’t have to be disappointed… i had recieved Penne Arabiatta and Nachos salad for lunch 
The nachos salad of course is my favourite LoFat salad… the Penne Arabiatta was new… It was ok… not spicy at all -thankfully- but a little bit too soft as i like my pasta Aldente… but it was good overall
My husband received Steak stuffed with Spinach with a side of broccoli and mashed potatoes and waraq 3enab (vine leaves) as a salad.
The waraq 3enab we tried before and we liked it. The steak he says was very heavy with because it was drenched with a creamy sauce. Other than that it was good.
For dessert we received German Cake. It was just a piece of chocolate cake with a little chocolate glazing on top. It was ok.
For breakfast tomorrow i received Zaatar Fatayer with Fruit Kebabs.

how can you force yourself to eat this?! it looks like a cheap microwave tv dinner :S
i have seen all lo-fats offerings through your blog.. and i sincerely think you should stop this diet.
eating small portions of terrible food leads to cheat on your diet. in the end, you end up gaining weight not losing weight.
i feel worse for your husband though. maskeen.. are you forcing him to eat along with you?!
why dont you try eating 6 meals a day.. 1 hearty breakfast.. 4 small snacks.. and 1 decent portion of dinner?
i.e.
7am: brkfast- eggs/toast/tea/oatmeal (skim milk..avoid cream cheeses unless fat free)
10am: snack#1 at work- salad minus heavy dressing
snack#2- fruits or protein bar
snack#3- fruit drink/milkshake (skim)
5/6pm: dinner- grilled chicken/stir fry veggies/rice (go easy on marag.. and no seconds when your plate is empty!)
9pm- fruit/green tea/anything you would like really as long as it does not ruin all the hard work you did all day (i.e. no knafah!)
11pm- bed time
Summary:
50% protein/30% carbs/20% fat
plus ++fiber
this is just an example. make sure you avoid dressings/marag. and make sure you avoid indulging at gatherings or buffet. oh, and how about this trick.. when you prepare your meals.. use smaller plates. this way you trick your mind into thinking you have more food than you think.
anyhow.. good luck with your diet and stay away from lo fat.
salemlem.

il wawy: I doubt i will lose much weight with LoFat given that their food is too oily for my usual diet. My husband got on board willingly after the first two weeks trial
In my case i’ve been dieting for 14+ years and i know exactly what i need to lose weight… but currently i have no time to actually cook my food and stick to a diet and manage everything else in my life hence the LoFat diet i am on…
