Hello my beautiful friends,

Here’s a what I eat in a day from last week as I am currently in the Peak District!

So after a couple too many drinks the night before aha I had a breakfast to help cure my mini hangover. Dippy eggs, bacon and an Innocent smoothie.

I had a late start at work, my shift only starting at 12pm so I could enjoy my breakfast in peace and lunch at work was only at about 3pm. I got this yummy avocado chicken salad!

After work I hit the gym and so dinner was a bit later, but I was ready for it. I made a little portion of a chicken green veg stir fry with some corn on the cob, which I absolutely love to eat with just a little butter and salt – yummy!

Hello my beautiful readers,

Time for another what I eat in a day.

So yesterday, as most Tuesdays, I had a day off and spent all morning working on this blog and planning future posts. For my breakfast I made this yummy smoothie: 1 banana, 10 frozen strawberries, 1 slice of pineapple, 1tbsp of cocoa, 1 tsp of matcha powder, 1 tsp of green boost powder!

At 1.30pm I was still working on my blog whilst catching up on watching YouTube, but paused to make a quick bite of lunch – courgetti spaghetti – yummmm! 1/2 a courgette, a handful of olives, tbsp of green pesto, 1 slice of ham, pepper et voila!

In the afternoon, I went to the gym doing some cardio and some weights. When I got home I cooked some dinner – a tasty green veggie stir fry rice dish! Broccoli, green beans, kale, bean sprouts, onion, garlic, chicken and soy sauce! Twas very yummy and I treated myself to some beer too, a light 2.8% small bottle from Lidl.

After dinner, I ran myself a bath and had another beer and watched some very powerful and interesting documentaries about the meat and dairy industry – I will write a post about these documentaries soon! Well that’s it for today or rather yesterday aha! Hope you enjoyed!

Hello my beautiful friends,

It’s time for another What I Eat In A Day post!

Last week I stewed up some plums which were just a bit past ripe to enjoy, and then totally forgot about them. Yesterday morning I spotted them in the fridge and decided to make some French toast as it’s amazing topped with stewed plums! I had a soft roll which needed eating so I cut it into three parts and then dunked it into my cinnamon and egg mix (cinnamon is a must for me when making French toast) and then fried it in the pan (no butter or oil). The plum compote I just warmed up in the microwave and enjoyed with the French toast. I also made myself a berry smoothie to drink throughout the morning. I can’t do mornings without a smoothie aha, it’s so much a part of my routine now!

For Lunch I had some vegetable soup with low sugar toast (Warburtons tiger bread at 0.5g of sugar per slice is by far the lowest sugar bread I have found). For some reason however, I started feeling full and a bit queasy halfway through my soup so didn’t manage to finish it.

Dinner was a bit of a naughty meal as it was the leaving do from one of my work friends. We all went to an Italians and enjoyed some yummy food. We all had olives and bread for starters, then for mains I ordered a breaded chicken with asparagus in a tomato sauce with vegetables and garlic bread (the only thing that was disappointing was that there was so many potatoes in the vegetables I was hoping for more greens) but the chicken was super tasty and such a large portion that I only managed half and got the rest wrapped up to take home. With the meal I enjoyed a glass of white wine and the we got a shot of limoncello on the house after dessert. Although I was really full I indulged in a hazelnutty thing with meringue and chocolate filling for dessert.

So that wraps up my what I eat in a day!

Hey there my beautiful friends,

So I thought I’d start a What I Eat In A Day post every Wednesday, hope you enjoy!

Breakfast: Smoothie Bowl (frozen mixed berries, 1 banana 1/3 of a mango – topped with oats, cacao nibs, chia seeds, coconut, blueberries and pomegranate) 900ml of mint and lime water

Snack/Lunch: Decaf filter coffee, 1 pear and some more water

Post Gym Snack: Fresh orange and grapefruit juice (4 oranges, 1 grapefruit, half a lime and a sprig of mint)

Dinner: Tuna Mayo Salad (mixed leaf salad, 1/2 tin of tuna mixed with red onion and mayonnaise, cucumber, green olives and 2 slices of organic white bloomer bread with sunflower spread)

I got up at about 9.30 am and made my breakfast – yummy and very filling! At about 12.20 I made my coffee and cut up a pear, but I actually struggled to eat the pear, having had nearly a whole 1l of water throughout the morning which filled my stomach and left me rather full. I had the gym at 2pm though so felt I should at least eat the pear to give me a bit more energy. So at 1.30pm I left for the gym for the second part of my programming session, adding some leg and ab work to my gym routine. After my session was over a stayed a little longer and did some more arm work. When I got home at about 4.30pm I made myself some freshly pressed juice and ran a bath, again haha, I do love my baths! At 6pm I popped to the shop to get some salad and cucumber and then came home to make this yummy salad. I am nicely full now and the only thing else I might have tonight is a cup of tea and maybe if I’m feeling peckish when I settle down to watch the Vikings (which btw if you haven’t seen yet you really should!) I might have a small portion of low sugar Tyrrells sea salt & cider vinegar crisps.

Well there you go, my what I eat in a day.

I hope you have all had a wonderful day,

Love Carina xo
