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:

The usual breakfast of fruit, chia seeds and yogurt.

One syn for the chia seeds.

I'm rather annoyed with myself for forgetting to photo lunch because it was lovely.  I used the ingredients to make a quesadilla rather than a pizza using tomato puree and ketchup for the red sauce and a filling of onion, peppers, some stir fried veg and some mozzarella cheese plus a simple salad on the side.

I had some grapes and an easy peeler for afters.

One healthy extra A, one B, one syn for sauce, one for mixed seeds and half for dressing

Sometimes you just have a totally delicious day.  I mean, I always like what I make or I wouldn't make it but some are better than others.  Lunch was lovely and dinner was just so, so good.

I used half a chicken breast fillet, some Spice Queen fajita spice mix, onion, yellow pepper, the last of a bag of stir fry veg from the freezer, some home made chips (air fried), some grated cheese, some mixed seeds and some tomato and red pepper on the side.  Oh, and some yogurt to balance the spice.

I was too full for anything else.

The cheese was an A and two syns, the seeds were one syn and I am pretty sure everything else was speed or free.

Summary:

two healthy extra As

one healthy extra B

six and a half syns

perfect SW!!

Tomorrow's plans:

B:  fruit, seeds and yogurt

L:  soup, croutons and grated cheese, maybe side salad; fruit

D:  liver, bacon and onion (Cook's ready meal), sprouts, broccoli, sweet corn; fruit

Exercise:  Groove and, weather permitting, the walk there and back.
