Healthy Habits

Im sure we have all tried to be healthy and started on diets but then they never really last that long and after a week or two were back to our old habits. I know iv’e certainly done that. However this time I am pretty keen to keep at it. So far its only been 3 days but so far so good. For breakfast I have museli with light yoghurt and banana. Lunch is either a sandwich or garden salad or fruit salad. Dinners consist of chicken or fish, small portion of veggies and brown rice. When i feel a bit peckish during the day, i snack on nuts and fruits. Thats it! Ive had to push away my cravings for ice cream and chocolate and believe me, it isn’t easy !  Wish me luck 🙂

Lunch Date

mixed summer salad  orange and almond cake

Watermelon, Mint & Pine-nut Salad

This week mum seemed to be in a bit of a cooking frenzy. Recently she made a creamy bacon and mushroom risotto, watermelon, mint and pine-nut salad and this evening chilli and lime chicken skewers. Rather unusual behaviour – she doesn’t exactly love cooking but i’m not complaining !!!
