Nicola's Cuba Countdown

Well today ended up being a red day - my breakfast and lunch were both SE, but I think there was a bit too much meat going on with my dinner for it to be truly SE... so probably somewhere in the middle! :D

Breakfast: All Bran Choc Crunch (HEB), Natural Yogurt, Chopped Banana & Strawberries
Snack: Tea (0.5), Apple
Lunch: Salmon Fillet with Crispy Salad, Tomatoes & Peppers, Pineapple, M&S Guilt Free Snacking Chocolate Crispies (6.5)
Snack: Slice of birthday cake - ooops! Any ideas on syns? Was a small slice of Victoria Sponge. Will allow balance of my syns for now (7.5)
Exercise: Pilates
Dinner: Moroccan Spiced Turkey Kebabs (from the Little Book Of Lunches) with Pitta (HEB), Salad, Mint Yogurt Sauce & Hot Chilli Sauce (0.5)

Summary: 0 x HEA, 2 x HEB, 15 Syns, 1 hour Exercise

Hello hello, here to subscribe, your doing fab honey and food looks amazing! xxxx

Welcome Lynne! Looks like you're doing well too, fellow Slimmer of the Month for May! :D x
 
Dinner looks amazing! Getting my book out RIGHT now lol

Do it! :D The recipe was for 4 but I ate half for dinner and am having half of the remaining half for my lunch tomorrow :D If you like things spicy I'd recommend upping the herbs and spices a bit as it was a bit mellow for me! x
 
You breakfast looks like black forest gateau when it's not enlarged.... now I want some! lol!

Haha sorry! I can guarantee it's definitely not that... black forest gateau would be my idea of hell if I ever went on Saturday Kitchen! :D
 
Breakfast definitely looks amazing, just added that all bran to my shopping list for tomorrow =D

Haha, it's only new - it has little choc chips in it so feels really naughty, and I'd happily eat Dairy Milk for breakfast when I'm not being healthy so I love anything that has real chocolate in it! :D There's a berry version too but I don't think that's been confirmed as a HEB yet, need to send off the packaging and get it listed!

Keep us informed, I'm on Kellogg's watch now for healthy Bs! My poor Weetabix may have to take a break from tomorrow =D

Good afternoon ladies!

Feeling a bit queasy today so not the best day - would love to know what's causing it... the cat's going to get the remainder of my lovely turkey kebabs at this rate! :( The gym this morning perked me up temporarily but by the time lunchtime came around (rather late, admittedly, about half an hour ago!) I was back to feeling properly sick again... 3 turkey kebabs eaten and it's all I can do to not throw them up again :(

However, I am not going to let this throw me off plan, so here's today...

Exercise: 30 mins gym (bike)
Breakfast: Banana, Natural Yogurt, All Bran Choc Crunch (HEB)
Snacks: Apple, Nectarine
Lunch: 3 Turkey Skewers, Hot Chilli Sauce (0.5)
Snack: Options Hot Choc (2)
Sleeeeeeeeeeeeep....................
Dinner: Pack of Ham, Plain pasta and 40g Reduced Fat Cheese (HEA)

1 x HEA, 1 x HEB, 2.5 Syns, 30 mins Exercise

So looks like today's going to be an extra easy day rather than the red day I had planned! :)

Lots of body magic cleaning the house later if I feel a bit better, the parents are up to visit this weekend so it's getting it's quarterly deep clean! :D

Happy Friday everyone!! xx
