 Hi, everyone! Welcome to my blog where I talk about my ongoing Slimming World and associated health journeys. I'm now around my target range and am aiming to keep this steady while following Mediterranean diet principles and the Slimming World structure which is now going to include the three different healthy extras - calcium, fibre and fats/oils.  I'm winging it a bit until the info about amounts is released - making sensible guesses based on prior knowledge!

I gather this is the new logo . . .

Today's meals;

I had some speed fruit for breakfast - pear, apple, orange.  No photo!

For lunch, I shredded some of the left over beef, mixed it with some chutney, spread it over some bread, added cheese topped it with the other slice of bread (synned) and toastiefied it.  Very delicious with salad on the side.

One calcium (cheese), one fibre (bread), six syns (the other slice of bread) and one and a half syns (for the chutney)

Dinner was supposed to be the rest of yesterday's one pot.

To the mix I added some shredded beef, a chopped mushroom, a few more kidney beans and some chilli spice and cooked some chips using one and a half tsps avocado oil (high smoke point) to go with the other oil in the chilli. 

So I had loaded chips rather than filled jacket potato.

I made a sort of salsa with tomato, cucumber, pepper and onion.  It looks murky brown because I added balsamic vinegar.  It looked urgh but tasted great!

However - because I had added meat, more beans and mushroom, it became two portions rather than one so I still have some to use up!

Almost one healthy oils/fats and one and a half syns for some salad cream.  You have to have salad cream to dunk the chips!

Afters was some fresh pineapple.

Summary:

pretty much one of each healthy extra

eight and a half syns

Tomorrow's plans:

B:  fruit

L:  hummus (if I can find it in the freezer), vegetable dips, melba toast; fruit

D:  chilli jacket potato, salad; fruit

Exercise:  personal training
