High Protein Omelette

Hi everyone!!

So today I needed  to cook some eggs so that they don't expire.

I made this high protein yet simple omelette and stored it in the fridge for tomorrow. The expiring date was today lol.

Ingredients: 

4 eggs' white

4/1 onion

A table spoon of olive oil.

Half a can of tuna

Salt

The rest you know how to proceed.

It is high in protein because eggs' white and tuna are both very rich in protein. If you are on a low calories diet,then this great.

Enjoy!!!

Adding proteins to your salad.

Hi Dolls,
You guys know that when trying to eat healthy or dieting it is important to have protein in our meals.
Now I love salads and they are very low in calorie. Below are some pics of how I add extra protein to my salads. Enjoy!!

Salad with prawns-spinach has some protein too and it is rich in iron.

Salad with half a can of tuna and a handful of chickpeas

Salad with egg whites

Salads with Honey cured chicken slices

NO CARBS DAY

Hello dolls.

Yesterday was my rest day and I ate so much cakes late at night lol.
So today is a no carbohydrate day, not even for breakfast.

Breakfast was a banana smoothie with soy milk.
Lunch is oven cooked chicken with cherry tomatoes and steamed broccoli (see picture below).
For tea, I will have a Tesco low fat Greek yogurt mixed with fruits.
Diner will be soup with mixed vegetables and another piece of chicken. In between these meals, I will have nuts or dates and decaf coffee. Love my coffee. I will also have plenty of water.
Wishing you all a great week.

PS: My workout was 40 mins run, followed by some HIIT training (all first thing in the morning before my breakfast). I love training hard.

Hi Dolls,
Sorry I have been away for a very long time. Been very busy, hope you'll forgive me.
I have not been able to eat healthy meals and workout as much as I wanted to, but I am back to it and will be posting more often.
For breakfast today I had mixed fruits with 3 tablespoons of low fat yogurt.
Lunch was salad.
Diner is quinoa with mixed veggies(see pics below).

Hi Dolls,

Hope you are having a great time. I have been very busy, but below are two food ideas full of protein.

Savoy cabbage with carrot,steak and sweet potatoes (about 300 cals)

Chicken with bell pepper, cherry tomatoes and green beans, all pan grilled (250 cals max)

Have a great week end.

The Secret to losing weight...

Hello lovers,

Hope you guys are enjoying the sun and the Olympic Games.

We all want to look like those athletes don’t we? Fit and tone right? Well there is a secret or let say many secrets.

1-      Get your butt off the couch...yeah you heard me. That is the first secret. You will never, ever lose weigh if you are a couch potato. You will only get bigger and fatter. Also walk for short distance. You really don't have to drive everywhere and causing traffic jam and potlution for no good reason.

 2-      Don’t binge eating one day and starve yourself for the next two days...it doesn’t work. In fact don’t starve yourself at all. It will only make you ill. 

3-      Eat healthy food and avoid fast food at all cost. Prepare your food from fresh. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits. Listen to your body, some food might make you bloated. If there is any, find an alternative. I know that cow milk make me bloated so I drink soya milk, almonds milk or rice milk.

4-      Eat food high in proteins: Fish (my favourite is salmon), lean meat, chicken breast, nuts...etc (use Google to find out more).

5-      Eat often, that’s right, the more you eat the higher your metabolism will increase. The secret here it is in the quantity. Eat small meals every 3 hours.

6-      Avoid eating carbohydrate (Bread etc) after 6pm. I will say to only eat it at breakfast to kick start your day.

7-      Drink plenty of water and other beverage like fruit tea, herbal tea. But avoid fizzy drinks(coca cola and so on)

8-      WORKOUT...and be ACTIVE. If you aim at loosing weigh and being fit and tone, then the proportion should be 70% healthy food and 30% workout.

Hope you enjoy ready...Please comment and subscribed.

Bread obsession

Yes that is right! I’m obsessed with bread. I can’t live a week without eating bread. When growing up back in Yaoundé my mum used bring 6 breads(bagettes) from calafatas.

Those breads were meant for breakfast, but my siblings and I will start eating it during the night. Bread was a most in our household. So today I find it hard to stop eating bread or crackers. You probably wonder why I want to stop eating bread. Well, when I eat bread I eat a lot of it.  Can’t control the quantity that I eat and eating too much bread on a regular basic is not good for you especially if like me you are living a healthy life style. Bread is very high in calories because of the carbs it contains.

So far I have managed to go five days without bread. The most difficult days are week-ends; this is probably because there are my cheat days. I’m sure I will quit bread all together, but it is harder than I thought. During the week I get my carbs from oat meal, potatoes, brown pasta, brown rice and from vegetables. I tend to eat a lot of carrots sticks as snack. Below is a picture of what my meals look like.

 

The great thing about living a healthy lifestyle is that you become disciplined. You have too, you need to be health conscious and eat not just to lose some few kilos but to stay young, in good health and beautiful. But remember, you don’t have to be skinny to be fit. Everything is on inside.

We all have obsessions or cravings for something on a regular basic.

What is your obsession? Please do share.

Luv u beautiful boys and girls.

Tips to do to avoid cheating during your diet/healthy eating.

Ok today I want to share with you some tips and things I do to avoid cheating or snacking all day.

1-Always have only healthy food and snack in your fridge and cupboard.

This is very important point. When you have healthy food in your kitchen whenever you feel the urge to snack or cheat your diet you will only have healthy food to eat.

I intend to film a video on what I put in my shopping trolley. It might help someone figure out what to eat or buy.

2-Always prepare your meal in advance for the week or just for three days.

If you are a busy person, it is always a great idea to prepare your meals over the week end and put them in small containers( find them in £1 shops). When you are hungry and you have to cook for another hour, the chance is that you will look for something to eat first before preparing. This is where the point 1 can be helpful. A slice of an apple can hold your stomach.

3- Always leave your bank card, money or wallet at home.

I was sharing this point with one of my friend and she realised that whenever she has money on her she will end up spending on junk food. I leave my house with absolutely nothing, just an ID card or driving license. No money...no bank card. Whenever I have money on me I will end up buying biscuits etc...No ...no... no..

Be careful though because this is what happened to me last week. After work I was so hungry that I decided to pop to Asda and grap something. So I got wholemeal bread and some cashew nuts. I started eating the bread and the nuts when I remembered that I do not have my card with me. I started panicking...lol...Lucky enough I checked my bag and found £2...that was a lucky escape.

So be careful not to do the same mistake.

4-Always have two apples or any fruits in your bag

If I had my apple in my bag I certainly wouldn’t have gone to Asda. Unfortunately that day I ran out of fruits. When you have fruits in your bag...you keep your diet healthy and your calories to the minimum.

5- Always have a small bottle of water with you at all time

Now, most of the time we confuse being thirsty and being hungry, but when you feel hungry you can always feel that gap with water until you can have something healthy. Also water is extremely good for you when you are on a healthy lifestyle journey.

6-Do not wait for your cupboard and fridge to be empty before doing your groceries shopping.  

 I used to do that and it’s very bad habit. Imagine getting home...no meals prepared, no healthy snack...well I always end up eating a whole pack cashew nuts. Cashew nuts are very good for you but in very small amount. So a whole pack will provide me with 2000 cals.

7-Eat five small to medium meals a day

Until you start eating five small meals a day you will not understand what it feel like to have a fast metabolism. I used to have a very slow metabolism. But when I started eating 5 times a day my metabolism went through the roof. I was very hungry after 2-3 hours of eating. Until you try you will not understand. I will feel so hungry that I could eat a house. So having my medium healthy meals ready is very healthy because one thing you want to avoid is missing one meal.
My five small to medium meals are:
-Breakfast
-Brunch
-Lunch
-Tea
-Diner
There are meals and not fruits or actual tea. I prepare small meals containing veggies (20%), carbs (40%)and protein(40%). My carbs are wholegrain pasta or rice or sweet potatoes. For protein I take fish or chicken breast. You have to consider the meal quantity carefully, in time you can find what works for you.

8-Keep active

Yes keep active. I have the habit of cheating my diet on my days off. But when I keep busy by going to the mall or doing some work around the house I thing less about food.

Remember that you diet should fit your lifestyle and if you work 9-5, take your smeals and a couple of apple and a bottle of water with you. No excuse...

Theses are the things that I do and I do hope it will some some people. If you have some tips of your own, please do share by leaving a comment.

Have a great week end..with no sun..lol

xoxo
