5 day challenge

A girl i work with always eats branflakes with yoghurt for breakfast and it always looks so nice. I've never been a fan of grown up cereals because they never taste as good as cocopops but needs must and i have been trying to eat cereals that will feel me up. So anyway i went to tesco and thought id give branflakes another try, and while looking at the box i noticed a '5 day challenge'. You are meant to eat branflakes for breakfast for 5 days and apparently you will feel less bloated and feel fuller throughout the day, as someone who is ALWAYS hungry i thought this would be ideal...so i thought id give it a go and then share it with you.

BUT

I decided that i would turn the next 5 days into a challenge to clean up my eating as its been a bit hit and miss lately, but i really need to get back on track as holiday is looming! So i put together this meal plan which is sort of what i will eat on a good day I do usually change up what I eat but for this challenge I thought if keep it simple..i would just like to remind you that I'm not trained in nutrition and only go by what gives me energy to workout but makes me feel good too...so here it is, its very simple, maybe a little boring but its only 5 days!

• I tend to swap the first protein shake to before breakfast as i have it straight after my morning workout also if you find you are just starving or need energy begore an evening workout add in a rice cake with a thin spread of peanut butter.

• Also the three egg whites can be upped if you wish but i can't eat more than three, alternatively have 2 whole eggs rather than just egg white

• If you dont like almond milk just have water, I just loooove almond milk as its so creamy and makes the protein thicker!

So if you want to join me that would be great and don't worry i will post something really exciting to keep you going...

So i thought we will start next monday so you have plenty of time to go shopping, i'm doing the bran flake challenge this week so feel free to join in..i am putting together a workout schedule for you too so that you can do it along side the challenge!

I wrote you a little shopping list too...i'm too good to you aren't i!

Tuesday talk #1

So i've been trying to put together an ideal day of what i eat so that i can share it with you and so that you can see thats its not bland to eat clean :)

So on the menu is...

Breakfast: Protein shake mixed with Almond milk, Wheetabix with almond milk, banana and fat free yoghurt

Elevensies: Usually a granola bar and raisins

Lunch: lots and lots of veggies, a wholewheat bagel with homous - Moroccan is my fave

3'oclock munchies: protein shake

Dinner: Chicken, roasted veg and sweet potato with some coleslaw

I think i might make this a feature on tuesdays... hopefully give you some good ideas of what to eat and how you can mix and match to create you own ideal day :)

Coming later tonight Danielle's (better than reeces) protein peanut butter cups...eeeeeep so excited

Lots of hardwork and dedication

Strawberry and banana ice-creams

So I've been wanting to make some fruit pops for a while as i always freeze frubes and they are deliciousj but thought it might be better to make my own as they will be a lot cleaner

so while I was on a trip to homebase for my dad I saw some lolly moulds so decided to buy them - on dads credit card of course! Well he had just made me embarrass myself at homebase looking for all sorts of screws and stuff BUT I did lift big bags of bark by myself for which I'm proud of...I'm def getting stronger....if by the way you wonder why I write def it's not to be cool it's because I'm dyslexic and genuinely can't spell the word and it never gets corrected by spell check and I've kind of got used to it now and quite like it :)

Anywaaaay it's time to show you my fruit pops 

Yuuuuummy!!

All I did was blend one banana with a little bit of almond milk then put it in the moulds 

Wash the blender

Chop and blend strawberries then put then on top of the banana 

Then put the sticks in...taking care not to put them in upside down like me...I know I'm a bit special sometimes

Put them in the freezer until they are solid and then eat!! So refreshing and clean its unreal! Why not try it with your favourite fruits! 

Is there anything you want me to try and healthyfi? Please let me know because I'd love to do things you actually wanna see!! 

Lots of hardwork & dedication
