    Good morning everyone. I am late putting my plan up today because I had to go to the shops and get my veg for the week and couldn't plan my menu till then:D

    Today is my normal SW easy peasy plan;)

    Breakfast/Lunch - leftover ham, left over jacket potatoes, chopped onion and eggs all griddled together to make a sort of spanish omelette plus an apple first thing (all free) using 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (1 heb) Milk in coffee will be (hea)

    Dinner - Chicken breasts marinated in a spicy tomato sauce and then into the remoska with rice and vegetables followed the aldi muisli optifit yogurt with fresh blueberries ( all free) - made the sauce with passata, chilli flakes and a bit of sweetener.

    Evening snack - have to plan for this cause I have been eating stuff the last two evenings that I should not be having and if I am not careful I will not lose this week. So I am making a large sugarfree jelly with some chopped up fruit in it and some carrot and celery sticks and will munch on that lot if and when the urge takes me:p:o

    It is a lovely day today with the sun shining brightly, makes such a difference to my mood. :D

    Love
    Marion

    don't know if this one's of use to anyone, but if you have an electric toothbrush, try doing squats or lunges whilst you are brushing your teeth - thats 2 mins exercise for free! I've tried it with a normal toothbrush but fell over, it's quite hard to do two things at once when you are actually brushing your teeth.


    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    But using an electric toothbrush cuts out the exercise value of doing it by hand ......... and I ALWAYS fall over when I do squats and lunges anyway.

    PS have just bought my first pair of long boots since I was a [STRIKE]slimmer [/STRIKE]less fat teenager. Found a place (duo boots) that do a fantastic range of calf fittings.

    Beanie - crawley and gatwick are nearer me on the south coast than London really...

    EDIT: just googled Mannigs Heath - it's about half an hour from me, very close to Horsham: see map below
