Monday 16th April

So back to work this morning and trying to get back into good habits . Did my day 1 / Level1 of 30 day shred which wasnt as bad I though but was still left with a face like a tomato for a our or so but gelt great just spending 30 mins doing it rather than rushing away to work.

I have planned all of my meals for this week and have batch cooked pork, chicken and cottage pie to see me through until Thursday

Today's plan: -

B - Melon, Kiwi, Mullerlight
L - Chicken thigh roasted, savoury rice, roasted veg, watercress & spinach
D - Stuffed pork ( from yesterday) with baby baked potatoes, carrots & brocolli ( might use my HEXB cheese in the little potatoes
S - Apple, pear

HEXA - 70 cal cereal bar x 2
HEXB - Cheddar in my baked potatoes

Syns: - 1/2 pack smarties ( 4 syns)
