Today's food plans:
B: apple and cinnamon pancakes, berries and yogurt
Taken from the Pinch of Nom book, p 22, this should be delicious!
SW: If I was being totally SW strict, I would syn the grated apple part of the recipe because it's cooked - but you know what I think about that! So it's just a healthy extra B for the oats.
L: vegetable and butterbean soup, piece of fruit
From the freezer, I made this with some yellow sticker prepped veg so it's really frugal. It will be just right for a post aqua class lunch.
SW: free
D: baked tomato risotto, broccoli; protein yogurt
This is a SW recipe that folk were raving about on our local SW facebook group so I thought I'd give it a go. I'll have some broccoli on the side because a) I want to up my green veg and b) I have some in the fridge.
SW: should be free but as I have two health extra As to use, I might add some grated cheese. The protein yogurt will be two syns
Ss: tomatoes, maybe natural yogurt
Body Magic: I've booked an aqua class and will do some swimming before and after. Before as a warm up and after so that the queues for the showers have died down.
I'm now into the fourth week of working for the gold body magic award so almost half way there.
Morning Joy, signing up for that gold body magic award was certainly an excellent idea for you, it's really motivated you to do so much exercise hasn't it? Enjoy your day. xx
ReplyDeleteIt has, hasn't it? Even if it isn't having much effect on the weight, I think it's doing me some good! Can't be bad,

The vegetable chilli looks very nice, probably no more brown than a meat one!
ReplyDeleteHope you're enjoying the exercise, I had to take a week of last week due to a bad back and I really looked forward to getting back to it this week. I do 14 minutes a day on an exercise bike and it has made a huge difference in the months since I started.
I'm very glad things have healed enough for you to be able to get back on the bike.
DeleteAnd you're right about the chilli!

I've never signed up for Body Magic and yet I should because I go to the gym. In theory I attend three times a week, but the reality is that more often I go twice. It would perhaps encourage me to get the extra session in, or even go for a walk. Lost 1.5lb last night. Happy with that. I tried some PON banana and peanut butter buns (website, not book) but was disappointed as they didn't taste of either. It's the only recipe I've tried that I didn't like.
ReplyDeleteI guess there's bound to be one or two!
DeleteWell done with the loss - I hope I do as well on Thursday!
I think you have to want to do the BM awards really - they don't make much of a thing about them, do they, indicating that they're not that popular really.

I think I've only ever seen 3 or 4 awards given out for BM.
ReplyDeleteSame here. It's not a big thing but it seems to be keeping me on track and I actually do feel much better for being a bit more active and, honestly, I never, ever thought I would say that! It's weird!
