In case you wondered the healthy eating is going fab! I am so enjoying eating proper food and not obsessing about protein all the time! Here are some of the foods that I have been enjoying this week.
Lemon and pepper quorn escalope with a big mixed salad of grated carrot, spinach,
mixed leaves, courgette and lemon juice 1 tsp olive oil as a dressing
Oatmeal cooked with almond milk and blueberries
2 tbs greek yoghurt and flax seed sprinkle
Grilled chicken marinaded in soy sauce and chilli
Whole grain rice and half a bag of spinach (steamed)
A wholewheat wrap spread with 1 tbs garlic houmous
quinoa, salad and kale
I have so much more energy and my undereye bags look better. Yay! I might even have enough energy to go through my stuff again and finish off that blogsale from the other week. I still have so much stuff!
Yesterday Matt and I went to the cinema to watch Woman in Black. I finished the film and though “that ghost is so vindictive”! If you’ve seen it, do you agree? I mean what a cow! After all that effort he made as well. I was a bit surprised that it was a 12a, must be some hardcore 12 year olds out there cos I was a bit scared haha! I like that it’s an old school type of thing not full of blood and gore like maybe Saw but it plays on your mind and is really jumpy. Below is the trailer. Let me know if you have seen it or are thinking about it. I would probably watch it again so I could properly see all the bits where I had my hand over my face haha!
The film The Devil Inside was shown as a trailer before the film I was at and oh my, now that looks really freaky, it seems a cross between paranormal activity 2 and the exorcist. Now I like scary films but I think i’ll pass on that one as I won’t be able to sleep for a month! Good acting though as I was scared just from the trailer.
I like to take a yummy healthy snack and a bottle of water into the cinema as Matt sits munching popcorn and nachos so I am tempted to share them otherwise. This time I took some drench plain water and a flax 9 bar. Nom nom, cravings averted (and no rustling to annoy the other film watchers). 9 bars are my favourite mid morning or afternoon snack and flax is my favourite as Flax Seeds are a good source of alpha linolenic acid, omega 3 fatty acid. Most of the 9Bars are more than 57% seeds and coated with a lovely carob layer which tastes like chocolate but is dairy free. Carob contains minerals and vitamins too. All in all its lush.
I would love to try Larabars, Luna Bars and Think Thin bars but unfortuantely they are really hard to get in the UK apart from iHerb and I have already made my iHerb order this month to get some Puffins cereal and some Stevia. So it will have to wait unless I can find a kind soul to send me some larabars.
Do you like healthy food and scary films?
