I've been bad lately despite my New Year's resolution to eat healthy and lose a few pounds. I promised myself I'd start today and I did! (I always think Monday is the best time to start, not sure why). I usually eat when I'm bored, but I'm trying to stop that. My boredom food is usually just full of empty calories, which I hate.
So to start off my healthy eating this morning, I sprinkled a small handful of whole oats into a strawberry yogurt, and stirred. Yum! It filled me up for quite a few hours, which I was surprised about.
At dinner time, I grilled a chicken breast. Whilst that was cooking, I chopped up lettuce, tomato and spring onion, and made a bed of salad on a plate and got a pitta bread ready. When my chicken was cooked, I chopped it up and placed it over the salad bed. I didn't need a dressing as the chicken was very moist, which is surprising, as when I've grilled it in the past, it's been pretty dry. I put a small spoonful of potato salad on the side of the salad. I had a small glass of apple juice too. I'll have water from now on though.
Mmmmmm!
I would gladly eat this 5 days a week, it was so filling and yummy! But I think I'll experiment with different meals for a bit of variation. If I get hungry again later, I'll have a couple of Crackerbread with a small spread of peanut butter.
I'll try to update on my blog with pictures of my meals, hopefully it will keep me motivated!
Wish me luck!
