Weeeekend

It's been a long week...but a good week!
Ive eaten quite healthily and worked out quite a lot...happy me :~)

Food for today was:
Breakie: All bran + milk ; glass fruit juice

AM break: banana
Lunch: salad made of lettuce (different leaves), chicken, tomatoes and ; parmesan.
I also had a mini babybel, a yogurt and a nectarine.


PM break: I tried a Nakd bar pecan pie but didnt like it. Then I tried the pure protein bar I got with the magazine Bodyfit but didnt like it either: it was to chewy/gummy and the chocolate wasnt really nice. It looked a lot nicer on the paper :s


After work, boyfriend picked me up and we went to Tesco's to get some food for tonight and then headed to the gym.

I did have a really good workout:
Cross trainer: 5 mins warm up
Shoulder and chest press
Wave machine: 5 mins intervals
Stepper: 5 mins intervals
Bike: 10 mins intervals
Plank on the powerplate: 2x1 min
Side plank on the powerplate: 2x30 sec on each side
Cross trainer: 25 min intervals

Then, we got home just in time to watch the football...well for boyfriend to watch it.
Dinner was some fresh pasta with veggies (courgettes, mushrooms, onions, peppers) and some tomato sauce...yumyum


For pudding, we had some strawberries and cream.

And to be honest, while I was reading the blogs earlier, I was snacking on my littles sweeties I got from my parents...naugthy me :s

I love Saturdays!

Today's been a really good day.

I woke up quite early...ok, really early (6:30) but stayed in bed and enjoyed it.
I got up at about 9 and went for my weekly wieigh in and the result is: Ive lost 2 pounds Yeah!
Im now dead on 10 stone. Im so pleased with myself.
Then, as I was well motivated, I made myself a fantastic breakfast: A bottle of Innocent smoothie and some pancakes, which were inspired by Laura. It was amazing!
The first layer is my red fruits sauce ; second layer is honey and on top, some more red sauce.
The sauce I made was: frozen blueberries, frozen raspberries and some pineapple juice.


After breakie, I wanted to go to an aerobics class but boyfriend decided to come with me to the gym and made me late for the class :s
I then had a general workout: Cross trainer: 5 mins warm up, 5 mins backwards and 15 mins intervals.
I also did a bit of weight training a bit of powerplate.
Couldnt do much as it was quite busy.
After that, I felt really good. I think Im gonna try to sqeeze in some early morning workouts next week.

After the gym, boyfriend took me to "Le Petit Cafe". It's a French cafe which was recommended by a lady from his French class. It was really nice. It was like an old fashion little place.
There, I had a Croque Monsieur


And a crepe for pudding. Sorry, no picture of the crepe as it was in my tummy before I thought about it ;-) It was acrepe with lemmon and honney. Was nice but still prefer the ones my Mummy makes!


Then we went to a fair in the same village and then went to the shops in town.

This evening, it's pizza and football. Ive got a small one with ham, tomatoes, mushroom and cheese.

BTW: Does anyone know where I can find some Agave Syrup?? Dont think Sainsburry's got it. Went to Tesco's and Asda but couldnt find it. Where abouts is it in the shop?
Thank You
