Hi, everyone!  Welcome to my blog where I talk about my ongoing Slimming World and associated health journeys.  At present, I am working to reduce my 'bad' cholesterol through diet, particularly using the Mediterranean way of eating.

What I ate today:

Blueberries, raspberries and grapes with yogurt and chia seeds in the nice dish I won in last week's raffle.  Nice.

One syn for the chia seeds.

I'd planned soup but remembered I had some tuna left from yesterday so I mixed it with shredded lettuce, cucumber and red onion and stuffed it into a pitta instead.  I'd forgotten how nice that is.

Afters was a pear.

One healthy extra B, one syn for salad cream and two for a tsp of evoo in my salad dressing.

For dinner, I defrosted some chicken leftovers (from a SW Kitchen meal), straining off quite a lot of liquid.  I cooked and mashed a bit of potato and mixed in some cheese - cheesy mash is lovely!

And an orange and apple for afters.

One healthy extra A and the rest was syn free.

Summary:

one healthy extra A

one healthy extra B

four syns

Tomorrow's plans:

B:  fruit, yogurt and seeds

L:  toast, avocado and a fried egg, simple salad or, maybe, mushroom and tomato

D:  Roast vegetable and chickpea curry, quinoa; fruit

The last of the three Cook's meals I bought.  Hoping it is as nice as it sounds - the quinoa is extra and might be cooked by me or it might be part of a pouch.

Exercise:   personal training
