Suuuuuper Duper Late post coming up today.

I've just gotten back from watching Need For Speed at the Cinema and didn't have write up my WIAW post during the day.

Need For Speed was awesome BTW, for anyone thinking of going to see it. I'm not a massive car fan but I really liked it and I would go to see it again.

Anyway! I'll keep this super short and quick.. so lets get onto my eats..

BTW, I'm totally aware that I suck at food photography.. and these were kinda rushed and last minute. I'll try to improve!

Breakfast: Quaker Oats Multigrain Porridge with a Tbsp of Pure Honey
Lunch: Salad made with Lettuce, Red Peppers, Sweetcorn, Sliced Carrot, Red Cabbage, Half an Avocado, Slices of Honey Roast Ham with 2Tbsp of light balsamic Vinegar and a Laughing Cow Cheese Triangle on the side.
Dinner: Cod, Lightly dusted in breadcrumbs with Lemon and Black Pepper, Sweet Potato Fries and some sliced runner beans.
Snacks: Snackajacks Rice Cakes, Red Thai Popcorn for the Cinema, also had some chocolate mini eggs at the cinema too, but they're unpictured. ;)

Salads have been the best part of my week so far and fairly healthy and filling too. When I do the salad again, I may choose a different filling like Boiled Eggs rather than the Honey Roasted Ham to be more filling, but other than that its rather delicious.

As always, thanks to Jenn for the linkup. I'm hoping to find some recipes when I have a look at everyone else's posts :)
It's now bed time for me.. I hope everyone is having/had a good day/night ;) Until Next Time!

Question: What do you like to put in your salads?

Before I get started! Don't forget that the Twitter Party is on tonight for the #MNBChallenge where Lorna Jane and FitApproach will be announcing the winner of the $1000 shopping spree. I'm excited as I've never been to a twitter party before. Good Luck to everyone!

It starts at 5 pm PST / 8 pm EST or if you're lucky enough to live in the UK like me, it'll be 1 am in the morning! Zzzz..

Phillip went to have his next appointment for the break in his hand, fortunately, he's got off pretty lightly and its not serious. His cast has been taken off, it was apparently not necessary but it was probably put on to be cautious. He's just got a splint bandage to keep his pinky and ring finger together and should cause no issues.

It's actually a relief to me, as it may stop him whining so much about him being bored now that he is able too do things again, like go swimming etc whilst he has to be off work.

Anyway, lets get on with my eats for today!
Breakfast: Quaker Oats, Oats So Simple Multi-grain with a tablespoon of Pure Honey.
Lunch: Wholemeal Bagel with Ham, Cream Cheese and Cucumber and salad (Lettuce, Pepper, Carrot, Red Cabbage) with a little salad cream.
Dinner: Red Thai Chicken Curry with Wholegrain Rice and Lotsa Veggies
Snacks: Banana, 2 x Clementine and a Rhubarb and Custard Nakd Bar

I've really been trying to pile in my fruit and veggies this week.

Most of my food has been pretty much the same as this most of the week, loads of veggies with dinner, normally a salad with my bagel and I've been having Bananas and Clementines as snacks.

Definitely getting in my 5 a day this week!
As always, thanks to Jenn at Peas and Crayons. Go and check out everyone else's posts.. and feel free to share what you've eaten!

I've not actually decided which one of my surgery posts I'll be doing tomorrow, its a tie between questions to ask your surgeon or a list of my surgery resources that I've been using. I'm sure I will have decided by tomorrow and you will see it then.

Question: Do you normally get your 5 a day of Fruit and Veggies?

Happy Mid-week Everyone!

I'm currently running on empty and going to bed after I've written this post. Had a fun and eventful night, last night. Phillip slipped over during his run yesterday, landed quite badly on his hand but thought nothing of it.

12 am last night, he still can't sleep, he's in pain and his hand had swelled like a gorilla's. We took a trip to his mums work and got one of their first aider's to take a look and ask on their advice. They said he should go to A&E to get it checked out on the safe side.

We arrived at A&E at ~12:45 am, spent about 20 mins or so driving round trying to find the hospital car park, which was NOT clearly sign posted.

Had to sit around for around 45 mins to be X-Rayed, another 45 minutes before he was seen by a doctor. Was told he had a broken Metacarpal and needed a half-cast - that took another 30 or so minutes.. Then the 30 minute drive home.

We got home at around 4:30-4:45 am this morning. I didn't get to sleep straight away. I had to get up for wok at 8 am.. So I'd say I've had about 3 hours sleep and had to do a full days work.

Absolutely mad. I'm knackered and totally ready for sleep, but before then.. lets get onto what I ate..
Breakfast: Muller Greek Style Yoghurt with Almond Flavour Biscuit and Dark Chocolate Pieces.
Lunch: German Rye Bread with Lettuce and Carrot Slices, Ham Slices and Soft Cream Cheese
Dinner: Sweet Chilli Chicken with Wholegrain rice and an abundance of Carrots and Peas
Snacks: Muller Greek Style Honeyed Peach Yoghurt and a 9Bar

I was in a rush and was late for work, so a yoghurt was the only quick thing to grab for work, not the best of choices.. but it was pretty yum.

So, I've been trying out some new foods this week. Recommendation of Rye Bread came from Katie at CakeVsScales - I think it's pretty good and its filling - although, I agree with her that it may not be to everyones tastes.

I also spotted the 9Bars in Tescos, full of nuts and other goodies. Completely skipped my mind to have a look at the calories and they're ~220 cals per bar.. so I won't be getting those again unless they have bars that are lower in calories. They are pretty tasty though!

I've been having at least half a plate of veggies this week with every meal which is better. We're completely stocked up on veggies at the moment. Don't forget to get in your veggies too!
As always, thanks to Jenn at Peas and Crayons. Go and check out everyone else's posts.. and feel free to share what you've eaten!

I'll have my next post for Plastic Surgery going up tomorrow which will cover my Third Consultation. Time seems to be going by so fast, the surgery will be round before I know it.

Now! Time for me to get some much needed shut eye! Zzz.. Zzz..

Until Next Time!

Question: Have you ever broken any bones?
I've been lucky enough to have never broken any bones and haven't been in hospital for anything major *touches wood*

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening from wherever you're reading this!

I had the WORST night of sleep last night. I didn't get to sleep until 2:30-3 am as the cats were SO loudly munching on their food in our room, I just couldn't fall asleep with the noise. I then got up at 6:30 am and I don't function well on 4 hours of sleep, so there was NO way I was gonna go running this morning.

Hopefully the weather stays dry and not so windy tomorrow morning so I can fit in a run!

It's been Nourish Week for the MNBChallenge, I've eaten meatless on Monday, taken my lunch to work on Tuesday (which I always do anyway) and today is saying what we ate.. which is pretty convenient for today's WIAW!

So, lets get to it!
Breakfast: Porridge with Apricot Pieces and Almond Milk
Lunch: 2 poached eggs with 2 slices of wholemeal bread and a smidge of butter.
Dinner: Chargrilled Chicken Breast, Sweet Potato Chips, Peas and Beans
Snacks: Nutrigrain Granola Bar, Ryvita Minis, Nutrigrain Breakfast Bar and Danio Yoghurt in Cherry.
I've got smoothie day tomorrow for the MNBChallenge and then a RAW day on Friday. I'm nervous about both. I'm not sure what I'm going to do for both of the days yet, but I'm sure I'll figure something out. Maybe I'll get some inspiration from the other WIAW posts!
As always, thanks to Jenn at Peas and Crayons. Go and check out everyone else's posts.. and feel free to share what you've eaten!

My 2nd and possibly 3rd consultation will be going up tomorrow. I say possibly third, because I don't know how long the post is going to be for the first one. Keep an eye out!

Hope you've had a great day!

Until Next Time!

Question: Recommend any smoothie recipes that I can try out?

I've had an eventful day the last 2 days, I took Kia for her boosters yesterday after work. After everything was finished, I enquired about having her spayed and explained she hadn't been in season at all yet.

I have booked the little girl in for Tuesday to get spayed.. But I may have jinxed it slightly. That same night, the little one came into season and all last night and today she has been howling, meowing and chirping. Running around the house, rubbing herself on everything. I hope it doesn't continue until Tuesday, but it's been pretty funny to watch her. She's an indoor cat just like all the others so there's no chance of her getting pregnant.

It must be incredibly frustrating for her though, our other 3 cats are all males and neutered and they are showing zero interest to her. Poor baby! ;)

Anyway! Let's get onto my eats..

It's What I Ate Wednesday again today and I FINALLY have something different to share with you all.

Me, Phillip, his mum and her partner went to London West End yesterday to watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I thought it was fab, though not as good as others that I've seen.

I had been looking during the day for places to eat, there were a couple of small restaurants around but we eventually settled on Nandos. I've never been to Nandos before so I didn't know what to expect other than I've heard the main part of it is Piri Piri.

I don't know if its the same in all Nando's restaurants but I wasn't expecting having to make our own orders at the desk and get our own cutlery and condements. It wasn't a problem of course, I just haven't been to a restaurant where it operates this way.

so.. lets get onto my full day of eats shall we?

Breakfast: Dorset Porridge Oats with Cacao and Orange Granola

Lunch: Lentil and Bacon Soup

Dinner: Now.. there's no picture for my main because I was so looking forward to eating and I was really hungry that it completely slipped my mind.

So.. I had 1/2 Chicken with Mango and Lime seasoning, Corn on the Cob and Macho Peas.

I loved the chicken with the Mango and Lime, the seasoning was lovely. The corn on the cob wasn't very juicy, I ended up leaving half of it. The Macho peas were great as it was mixed with mint and I LOVE mint sauce.

Dessert: Caramel Swirl Cheesecake - Have I ever mentioned my love for cheesecake? Well, if I haven't, now is when you know. Cheesecake is my ULTIMATE dessert and I reckon that I could live on the stuff. This was yum but it had a weird thick texture to it unlike other cheesecakes that I've had. It did come with a pot of double cream but I didn't have that.

Snacks: a handful of honey and chocolate covered nuts - There's a new place that has opened up in the city centre called Grape Tree that sells loads of different health foods like nuts, dried fruits etc and me and P picked some up this weekend. They're lovely, but I wouldn't say that they were particularly 'health' foods. I can't find the cals info on this or the packaging, but I bet that they're pretty high in calories.

I'm SO bummed that I didn't manage to get a picture of my main dinner which I guess defeats the purpose here of showing you what I ate. FAAAAAIL..

I guess it's back to boring eats from now on, right? ;)

As always, Thanks to Jenn for hosting the linkup for WIAW, click the pic below to head over to her blog and find more WIAW posts!

Hello all you lovely people! I hope that your week is great so far!

I'm not having too bad of a week, only busy at work.. More projects than we can handle between the team so were under a bit of pressure.

P and I have spent the afternoon shifting half of the things out of our room. This weekend is gonna be a busy one as we are re-decorating our room and then we are having a new carpet out down next Tuesday. I'm looking forward to not looking at a massive stain on the carpet. :)

Anyway! Enough of that.. Let's get onto the real reason why you probably ventured here!

Breakfast: Dorset Porridge Oats topped with a handful of Food Doctors Cacao and Orange Granola

Now with the cold weather coming in.. I've switched over to something that keeps me warm and soup always does that trick. I always think about making my own soup for work but I've never been brave enough to try it. I might do! But for now.. The tesco soup is keeping me going and it's actually really nice.

Dinner is by far one of my favourite meals, quick and easy and fairly healthy and fills me up for ages. The majority of the dish is made up on peas.

Then for snacks, it was the natural yoghurt with fruit slices which is one of my favourite snacks at home. I've successfully stayed away from any sort of chocolate, sweets, cakes and biscuits for 2 weeks and I think it's doing me a lot of good. I'm not missing anything so I may just continue with it with the odd treat here and there.

No more interesting than normal!
