Day two... Sweet potato

Hey guys! So day two is almost over, I started off my day with an apple (better than nothing, right?!) 

Lunch consisted of a two egg omelette with cheddar cheese tomato and ham. Then finished off with a yogurt. 

Now dinner was interesting.. I've been trying to convince myself I will love sweet potatoes. So I popped it in the oven as a baked potato then topped with a bit of butter with sour cream and chives all mashed in.

 A side of broccoli bake which is: broccoli, bacon, mozzarella and a sauce of milk, butter and chicken stock mix together and pour over the ingredients. I cooked at 200°c for 20 minutes. 

And then just some chicken strips. 

I am now FULL and still no closer to loving sweet potatoes :( I still have one left to try and change my mind! 

I've been drinking tea, water and squash and finished my afternoon off with a 10 minute jog. 

Here's hoping all this experimenting pays off just a little in time for the weekend. Xoxo

Day one... Never skip breakfast

I skipped breakfast, naughty I know but was too busy! That won't of helped me I'm sure :(

Lunch consisted of creamy chicken soup and a few spoon fulls of raspberry yogurt. 

Dinner was yummy chilli con carne with guacamole and cheddar cheese, yum! More raspberry yogurt and a few cups of tea.  

I've got cucumber chunks with a cheese and chive dip for a snack. Lets hope I stick to this plan my whole week! Here's  my starting wait (ekk) and a few snaps of what I was eating xoxo

Diet in a week

Will you join me in my fast week plan on my diet and health kick? 

Starting Monday I'm planning on loosing some weight! Why I'm not including Sunday you ask? Well I'm having a much deserved treat after a stressful few weeks! Plus it's Mother's Day, I can't just be eating salad while she eats all the cakes can I?

So last year I done the atkins plan, stuck very well to it and fitted in the gym, I lost an amazing 7lb in a week. I'm not saying I'm going to able to match that again but I'm hoping I'll come close. 

I'm choosing to plan my whole week of meals, that way I know what to look forward to and I won't just give up and grab a bag of crisps for my mid morning breakfast. Plus, I'm a very fussy eater, I'm becoming more adventurous but it's a slow process!  

My goal is to eat healthy but not live as strict as the atkins phase one as believe me, it's tough!

I have no gym membership this year so I'm going solo and using apps, YouTube/tv workouts to help keep me moving. I'll post my day of food with the recipes I used and the workouts that kept me moving. 

Check back with my progress and hopefully I'll be inspiring more to get motivated. 

Help me along the way and post a comment, any tips, tricks, recipes will be much appreciated! Xoxo
