Day 5

Start of a new week and as it's Monday it's weighing day. I've lost 4 lb! Yay!!!!!!!!

Today was my day off from work, so kept myself busy as I don't want to get bored an snack. 

Took all my christmas decorations down and got on with lots of household jobs.

Started off the day with a peach yogurt smoothie, (same as the other smoothie I made but with a peach yogurt instead) only 296 calories.

Something really exciting happened today aswell, my Holland and Barrett order came! All my slim pastas, rice and noodles came! Very excited to try the  pastas and the rice.

Went on a walk to the shops to get some bits and bobs and burnt 451 calories!

For lunch I had my minestrone soup 58 calories (recipe on day 2 blog) and a packet of space raider 64 calories.

For tea I had "chicken and cider casserole" a recipe inspired by the hairy dieters.

Ingredients: 

Aldi frozen chicken piece 200g

4 carrots

Half a large tin of aldi sweetcorn

300g Maris piper potatoes 

1 leek

1 onion

1 clove of garlic

Mixed herbs (use how much you want)

10g flour

1 aldi chicken stock cube with around 500ml of water

25g chicken gravy 

Method: I use a large pot that I can use on the stove. Chop the onion and brown, add the garlic to the pot then add the chicken. Peel the carrots, chop and to the pot. Cut the top and bottom off the leek, slice and add the the pan. Peel and chop the potatoes and add them to the pot, add the sweetcorn. In a measuring jug add the gravy, stock cube and flour add the boiling water and whisk unroll dissolved. Cover vegetables, add the cider and more water if needed. Bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and cover. Cook for around 2 hours.
