You're a braver man than me.
As for Triathlons? wtf?? nah,not for me.
Almonds,boiled eggs,chicken breast,protein bars are your friend.Been wanting to do one for years so have booked it now so no excuses.
Just need diet sorting, I’m not overweight but do like eating the wrong stuff at times. Crisps have always been a pain but cut down to only 2 packets this week. Need better snacks I guess. Suppose it’s getting the balance right with the training.
Going to start properly from Sunday, on the piss tomorrow and Saturday then giving the beer a miss until end of September.

Decent breakfast and tea,youre good.
Not one of you fuckers answered my triathlon questions!!
Anyway just done 25 miles in 1:45 on the bike, first time on it for a couple of months so pleased with that.
Starving when I got in and ate a sausage roll that was in the fridge, I know, I know @FantasyIreland im a disgrace, won’t do it again I promise.
Post up your daily diet,list all foods from waking till bed and i'll see where i believe you could improve.
As for a general rule,keep things simple......KISS.That applies to both diet and training,it doesn't need to be complicated but it does require dedication and determination,otherwise you won't ever attain your goals.
It’s usually something like this:
Gluten free corn flakes/Oatmeal (I use coconut milk, which low in calories and no
higher in sugar than semi-skimmed milk)
Protein shake - whey or soy protein powder, water, dextrose or maize starch, berries and creatine
A banana and/or an apple
Three or four teaspoons of hi-pro peanut butter
An Eat Natural Protein bar (contains about 220 calories and 7 grams of sugar)
Quinoa
A Poundland protein cookie (contains about 200 calories and 2-3 grams of sugar)
Roasted parsnips, sweet potatoes, chickpeas, kale and a chicken fillet
I can’t be arsed to track my calorie intake on MyFitnessPal or a similar app again, though.
You need protein with breakfast.Lose the cornflakes and keep to oats or replace with Weetabix/shredded wheat.Add berries and 30g Protein(only) powder.
Mid morning - apple and 8 almonds
Lunch - Tin of mackerel/Chicken breast with greens if possible
Pre workout - banana and protein shake
PWO - Sweet potato and chicken and greens
Before bed - Tbsp peanut butter or boiled egg
When you say Protein powder with the cereal, does that need mixing first or just add straight to the milk?
Bell whiff.....Just drink it separately. FI has bizarre ideas like things like Nutrisport's chalky protein on his porridge is a 'treat'
