Chickpea Dahl.

Woke up feeling refreshed this morning, Ive decided to do a experiment this week, Im not going to go to the gym for a couple of weeks just to see how things go and how much of an impact the gym is to weight loss and slimming world, so ill keep you posted!

Breakfast. 2 bananas and black coffee.

More compliments at work this week! It really means alot!
My trousers are really loose at the minute! I may have to buy some new ones! Also shirts are getting a little baggy!

Lunch. Chickpea Dahl and basmati Rice.

I learn something new every week!! You can get a chickpea curry from asda called chickpea dahl which is free on a green day. Its one of the best things from a tin I have ever tasted! I am using microwave steamed rice in stead of dried rice as its quicker. It is a few syns and im counting them. Plus im not having a lot of syns a day so they are nothing really!

Work is getting a little busier as there is only 2 of us producing ads a work. Still quiet on somedays but at least there is more work to go round since there is 2 of us instead of 3.

I bought a scooter at the weekend! Its to save money on petrol more than anything, plus I get to work a hell of alot faster than in the car! Think of all the calories burnt while shivering in the cold!!

Tea. Quorn Chili and rice.

Oh my!! More comfort food! I thought I would try the quorn mince today and make a chili! I was in heaven! Chili is one of those foods that I associate with comfort food. Its filling, hearty, hot and it makes your nose run! I didnt eat all of it. I am sure my stomach has shrunk since starting slimming world!

Here is my recipe for quorn chili!

Ingredients - Quorn Mince. 1 tin of plum tomatoes. garlic. Swartz chili con carne mix, 1 onion, red kidney beans and rice.

Method. Fry some quorn mince in fry light. Add a tin of plum tomatoes and chop them through with a knife, not too much, you need some lumps! Then add some garlic and the kidney beans. Mix and simmer. Lastly add the chili con carne mix, stir and smimmer for 15 mins. Cook your rice then serve! You will thank me!!

Night time snackage - Nil (wasn't hungry after chili)
