 Good morning

Yesterday started off great and finished not so great so Must Do Better today!

Circuits with Lindsey was great and she's set us a challenge - to do a hundred squats each day this week.  She has a small YouTube channel with a clip on that we can use to keep us going.  It's always easier when you're not on your own.
Here it is, in case you're interested.

I've put together a playlist of three of her other clips in the hopes that it gets me moving again - I'm being lethargic at the moment and it's really not helping at all.
Fingers crossed!

Yesterday's meals:

Muesli, yogurt and mixed fruit and just perfect before circuit training.  Filling but not at all heavy.  Lovely.

Lunch was the lamb and root veg soup to which I added leftover green veg from Sunday.  It looks very 'brown' but it was absolutely delicious and I am so glad there's more in the freezer.

I totally forgot to snap dinner.  It was nice but, looking at the recipe, I think it was nice because of the quality stock I used - fresh, jellied turkey stock.  I'll make it again soon but only when I have a tasty stock.

Today's plans:

B:  cooked breakfast
Bacon, egg, 2 x potato waffles, tomatoes and mushrooms.
SW:  four syns for the waffles

L:  The other half of the turkey pie from Sunday, veg; fruit
SW:  the pie has cheese in/on and I'll add a bit more to make it up to a healthy extra A

D:  mango and chilli chicken flatties, small portion of rice, sweetcorn, peas; yogurt
This is a Pinch of Nom recipe from one of their planners.  Basically, you make a mango based marinade, marinate a chicken sizzler overnight or for the day, cook the chicken and reduce the marinade to a sort of ketchup.  I haven't had sweet corn and peas for ages.
SW:  it looks to be syn free and the yogurt is half a syn

E:  squats and Lindsey's playlist.

Summary:
one healthy extra A

four and a half syns

From the freezer:

potato waffles
turkey pie

maybe mixed veg

chicken

peas

sweetcorn

that's better!!
