CELEBRATING 100 POSTS =)

HOORAY!!


 100 Blog posts!
Can you believe it?! Who knew id have so much to babble about in 8 months!
To celebrate i have redesigned my blog! I got my sexy back! Now its about going over and beyond! Living life to the fullest! Trying new things exploring new places! Never backing down.. Having fun and getting out there! My weight held me back alot not anymore! JUST DO IT!! =)


PROGRESS!! New running shoes! and me psychotically happy after a 5am run.. haha



SPIN with Katie and Mel! So much fun in flurescent lights! I push myself harder because of the darkness.. no one can see or hear you so scrunch up your face and groan as much as you want =)


BIGGEST THING EVERYONE NEEDS TO REMEMBER!
Acknowledge your progress!

My amazing bestfriend before one of our infamous nights out!

Date night with my hubby!



Well i hope that i have inspired you to take leaps! Make the small changes in your life that have great effects! Make the time to love yourself! BE PROUD of what you do and who you are and how far you've come! Everyday do something for yourself!



COTTON ON BODY... My new love!

Healthy Eating

LOTS OF HEALTHY EATING!!!

It's all about having the resources readily available!
Healthy ones get healthy results =) 

Lunches 

 My favourite lentil nachos! SO EASY TO MAKE!!! i made 10 lunches worth and put it in the freezer! the mountain bread wraps used fo rthe nachos stay fresh for ages! So its a great easy grab meal when youre short on time or just plain STARVING!!

New fave! Another freezer quick meal!
Frozen portions of salmon! Sundried tomato and herb
Then a side salad =)


NEW favourite..Chilli prawn salad!
This was alot of fun to make!

Snacks

Yes... this is a snack! Mel had this when we were out.. Soda water and Sour apple!
Most of the bad stuff in alcohol is what you mix it with! Also sugary liquers!
For example.. Soda water and bicardi would be very health conscious! ;-)

Always accompany fruit with some protein!
Fruit has a high amount of natural sugar the protein will balance it out!

Dinners

Imogen helping me prepare healthy homemade chinese!
Fried rice and Grilled chicken in plum sauce


This was my step dads Bon Voyage Feast! Haha
It's all healthy!! Under 380 calories for dinner and desert!
                                                                 Healthy meatloaf with lots of fruit and vegetables hidden inside!
Healthgy "Chocolate Mousse" and berries!


mmMMmMmm Mongolian lamb stir fry! SO many veggies!


My famous teriyaki salmon!











NEW fave! Lamb kofta wraps with hommus!


Breakfasts


Have also been making my own muesli!
Really keen to try this quinoa and apple breakfast recipe!


Muffins really arent the best but accompanied with some
good old protein you gotta get some carbs in sometime!
My BIG breakfasts! For days when you need a little more..
cajun spiced bacon, garlic mushrooms steamed beans. Pouched egg on baby spinach and rocket

 New improved protein smoothie!







So proud of myself! Been doing really well!
Have found some new recipes! Theyve been delicious!! Michelle Bridges recipes are great!
Also got in to see my naturopath for some added help!


Flaxseed oil! Mega mega B! Magnesium. Iron. Some weird one for my muscles.. and no more cows milk! Almond milk all the way! Its really good too!
