One last effort for the day to write a little blog just to say how knackered I am! Had a hectic workout in the gym, full 45 minutes of squash and I pushed myself, then went upstairs to the weights and circuit and did some legs and ass exercises. All that for an unfit overweight smoker is quite an accomplishment. But as shunted as I am I feel good. Will be stronger tomorrow!
Also Liezel made a delicious chicken stir fry for dinner which was spectacular, especially as I was so hungry by the time I got home from gym at 8.30 I was close to taking a bite out of my car's steering wheel on the way. On top of delicious (the stir fry, not the steering wheel) it was healthy, made with chicken breast fried up with onions, garlic, carrots, marrows, green peppers, green beans and mushrooms in a soya sauce with honey, served on a thin bed of brown rice. Admittedly I ate a slightly larger portion than the meagre pickings I'm supposed to eat on this diet, but I don't feel bad at all after a good day of diet and workout. In fact I feel fantastically fed right now!
But, that's not all we ate this evening. When we got home from work, before I took Tammy to her swimming lesson, we were both very hungry. So I made us a healthy little snack...
Wholewheat Pro vita's as the base, then I whipped up a delicious humus to dip the Pro vita's (un-buttered) into. My humus was made as follows:
Blended up a mixture of a can of chick peas, a large avo, 2 cloves worth of garlic, a little Veri Peri sauce, salt & pepper, lemon juice, and a splash of sesame oil and extra virgin olive oil.
Easy peasy, and I can't even describe how awesomely delicious it was, and still is. We only had 3 Pro vita's each with some of the humus on, the rest is in the fridge for another day.
I'll end this off by mentioning what a fabulously adorable and beautiful daughter I have been blessed with! Thank-you Jesus for the best kid in the world, she really is special, she owns my heart. My little peanut!
