Training day
I've had such a full day today.
I have been on health promotion training all day, which was really interesting. It got us to look into the different approaches on empowering people to make healthy lifestyle changes! Just my bag!!
I was prepared food wise and was healthy & good all day :)
But then Friday night happened.!
I got taken out to dinner and a show by my boyfriend- and although a few (!!) carbs were involved (and desert) I didn't do all that bad. It could of been worse.
Tomorrow is another clean day and a heavy weighted, high intensity gym class- YES!!
Sunday, however- is definitely let my hair down day- no exercise and out for fun with friends!
So remember, it's the weekend! It's bank holiday!! Let your hair down!!! Just keep some control :)
Have an amazing weekend.

Social dinner
After my bikram yoga class tonight, I had my tink round for dinner (Kirsty). There is always a lot of pressure when entertaining friends- is everyone going to like what you make? Will it fit in with eating clean?
I don't want to be known as that boring friend that serves up boring food and leaves people hungry!
AND it's Thursday- and in London that means that the weekend has started!!
So, tonight I made a healthy version of an old classic. Yes we did share a bottle of wine but our meal was nutritious and very healthy, considering what we could of have!
Quorn sausage & quorn burger
Home made rosemary and garlic potato wedges (with coconut oil)
Home made garlic coleslaw
Spinach and pepper side salad
& sour kraut
(Yes that is a small amount of garlic mayo on my plate- not so clean, but not the end of the world either)
Stuffed & satisfied- NOM!
What did you all have?

Dinner time! Home made clean baked beans!
New recipe for you all tonight!
Remember my bulk mix of quinoa, bulgar wheat, lentils, yellow split peas & mixed beans from Sunday? Well..... I had lots left over tonight that needed eating.
So, I present to you- beans and sausages!

Tomatoes (tinned toms/passata)
Diced onions
Mixed peppers
Mixed herbs, garlic & chilli
Then stir in your bulk bean mix, and warm through.
Pour bean mix into a bowl & onto a bed of fresh spinach and rocket.
Slice the sausge and decorate :)

Keeping it real :)
I have had people who know me ask why I am now an expert in healthy living, and do I now not ever eat anything but healthy and clean food?!
My answer is- I am no expert & I don't pretend to be. I have literally only just started on a course to be a nutritionist. I have always been interested in food and maintaining my weight, so I have started this this because I have such an interest in healthy living and how nutrition effects my life.
I am a nurse, and I know how living with all sorts of diseases can alter and map out your life, and I know the suffering that these illness' can cause. I know that living healthily can mean avoiding these illness' and disease- and that sounds much better to me!
I will always keep it real, and I want my blog to be easily read by anyone. There will be no intimidating or overpowering stuff! And hopefully that will keep it interesting for you. Anyone can live healthily- and that is what I want to show you.
No I do not only ever eat healthily! I am not 100% clean! I am a normal 25 year old girl with a love for carbs, home cooked winter meals and battles an obsession with Chinese take out! BUT the difference is, now that I have more knowledge on the effects that my lifestyle has on me, I choose healthy options more and limit my treats. This positively effects not just my weight and body shape, but my insides/my body systems/my mind.
'My mind' sounds a bit out there- let me explain. Everybody knows how good it feels to lose those extra pounds, tone up/ditch the wobbles & have more body confidence. It makes you happy!
It makes me happy to know that I have done this 100% healthily- no cheating! This means no fad diet or skipping meals or taking weight loss pills but eating clean and exercising! Its as simple as that! I want you to all feel the same, and to know how easy it is to do. Once you get into the flow it comes naturally and is actually enjoyable. Honestly!
I have been on my mega health kick for 26 weeks now, I have lost the stone of weight I put on after a very unhealthy winter & I am feeling so happy and healthy!
But this isn't the end of the road now- my goal is to carry on and live this lifestyle continuously. So lets help to motivate each other! Go team! (Cringe!).
So.... I hope that you find this blog as encouragement and inspiration. Ask as many questions as you want, offer me advise, and send me lots of pictures of your food etc- it makes me happy!
Live a positive & healthy life! I know that you will like it!

Cheap and easy!
Below is an example of the lunch I bought a few weeks ago when I hadn't prepped.
I went to coop and got all of this stuff for under £5. Clean, healthy, easy & CHEAP!
Posh bits- salmon
Spouted bean mix
Beetroot salad pot
Light cottage cheese
The bean mix was reduced to 70p
The salad pot to £1
And the cottage cheese and salmon were not much either. There was enough to last for 2 lunches, so each lunch cost me about £2.30- perfect!
If you pick the right bits, eating from a supermarket can be clean :)

Portobello mushroom and halloumi
Side salad
Mixed olives

Off to the gym for an hours class!
Calorie burning AND toning!!
What exercise have you done today?

Not got time to eat healthy tonight for dinner?
Seriously ... It's not a valid excuse. Now or ever.... :)
It is so easy to eat healthily! None of the recipes that I post are difficult!
This one has to be the quickest of them all & this what I end up having nearly every time I see my boyfriend and we are not eating out. It's quick and easy- and everyone like stir fry right??
Chinese veg stir fry:
Quorn chicken pieces
Mushroom
Onion
Broccoli
Bean sprouts
Water chestnuts
Pak choi
Throw it in a pan with coconut oil, cook it all up, add in some light soya sauce in the last minute.... And that's it!
Season with chilli, garlic, pepper etc etc.

Clean drinking!
I love water! So for me it's easy to get all the hydration I need.
But there are plenty of healthy and clean options for those of you who don't.
Please, please, please avoid all fizzy drinks! They are so bad for you! Yes even the diet and zero options! Just don't do it! I'm not even going to mention energy drinks as I know you all avoid them like the plague already, right?!
But dooooo drink coconut water, fresh juice, fruit infused water etc. fruit juice is better not from concentrate. Read the ingredients- keep it clean!

This, with a green tea, is heaven!
