Weightwatcher's friendly breakfast - recipe

WeightWatchersWorks


It may be cliche but breakfast really is the most important part of the day. It can help kickstart your metabolism for the day as well as stop that dreaded mid-morning snacking. I read somewhere that you should try to eat within 45 minutes of waking up. My normal breakfast routine consists of a boring bowl of cereal when I get to work. It's the easiest thing I can manage after that hour commute into the city. But when it comes to the weekend I like to get a bit more adventurous with my morning routine. As I usually like to have a bit of a lay in so I tend to have a a larger breakfast. A brunch if you like. Here's one of my favourite recipes. The great thing is it's very quick to make - great if you have a rumbling tummy!

Feta and tomato omlette with a propoints value of 7
Two eggs
8 cherry tomatoes
Season black pepper to your taste
Three sprays of fry lite
40 grams of Feta Cheese 


1. Chop the tomatoes in half


2. Crack the eggs into a jug and whisk. Season with as much black pepper as you want. Crumble the cheese into the jug.

3. Crumble the feta into the jug and mix in. Spray the fry lite into a frying pan and pour the egg mixture into the saucepan
4. Position the tomatoes as you like.

5. Cook for around 4-5 minutes and the pop under the grill until the top is starting to brown. Doesn't it look yummy?!

The birthday girl










Last Wednesday I turned the grand old age of 24 - eeeek! I had such a lovely day and was thoroughly spoilt by friends and family. Here are just a few snipets of the day and Thursday. My mum once again treated me to a buffet - the best kind of dinner - with lots of family visiting. As it was my nan's 70th birthday the day, I gatecrashed that day too. My mum, nan and I all had a brilliant day out in London pretending to be posh at The Ivy and going back to yesteryear with a trip to see Top Hat at the theatre. I brought the Mulberry oyster card holder with my birthday money. I'm tempted to save up for the kindle case as I still have some money left over. Maybe i'm a tiny bit obsessed...

Weekly Weightwatchers round up #1

I thought i'd start doing a weekly round up of how i've found weightwatchers, food i've eaten and my progress on the plan. This also ties in with the second weekly challenge where we had to plan our meals for the week.

This week has been disappointing to be honest. I've been relatively good all week - i've had a few hiccups but nothing that I would class as "binge eating" and falling completely off the wagon. I may have gone over my points allowance a few days but this has only been by a point or two. Trust me i've been consuming a hell of a lot less calories than I did during the month of December. That's why I thought I was destined to either stay the same or lose a lb or two. Alas it wasn't to be and I actually put on a lb! I feel so disheartened and really don't know why this has happened. I'm bracing myself for a gain next week as well as I have my birthday, my nan's birthday and a trip to the Ivy all the content with. I really wanted to be 5lbs lighter for Berlin on 1st Feburary but this doesn't look like it's going to happen. Let's hope I can do some damage control by being extra good on the days i'm at home.

Right i've eaten a host of delicious dinners this week thanks to my mum - life's so much easier when she follows the plan too. They're all from Weightwatchers cookbooks and if you fancy a recipe just let me know and i'll put together a post!

Monday:
Sweet and Sour Pork with brown rice - 11 propoints




























Tuesday:
Spring chicken risotto with pesto bread - 14 propoints




























Wednesday:
Courgette, Pepper and Spinach pasta - 10 propoints





























Thursday:
Pan Fried cod with rice - 10 Propoints




























Friday:
My phone battery died so I didn't get a picture of this!

My favourite from the week has to be the Risotto. You got such a big portion and it was very filling. I've got a soft spot for Italian dishes.  Plus chicken is my favourite meat however boring that may be!
