I made these little babies for breakfast which starts on Mon and ends on Fri for me. ^^

A close-up! I put lotsa sharp cheddar cheese on top. Yumz...

Lunch was out. I had prawn noodles.

Dinner was Ipoh Hor Fun with Chicken & Beansprouts.

17th Feb, Tuesday

Breakfast was 2 x cheddar cheese omelette with a smoothie.

I didn't visit the toilet yesterday and so, I thought I needed some fibre.

Hence, I dumped some mixed berries, ground flaxseed and rice milk 

into my NutriBullet and blend away!

Lunch was with a friend. I had a bowl of Tom Yum Handmade Noodles.

Dinner will be Quinoa with Smoked Paprika Salmon & Capsicums.

This was supposed to be my lunch. I forgot about my lunch appointment until when I was about to leave home for work. Hence, I turned it for dinner instead.

Need, need fibre! Smoothie I go! The same as the one on 17th Feb, Tuesday.

This was lunch - Mee Bakso with Chicken Satay.

Peanut Sauce was Yumz...

Lotsa Berries Smoothie!

I threw in a mixture of fresh strawberries, raspberries and black berries along with some rice milk.

Tasted surprisingly sweet! Must be the Korean Strawberries... ^^

This was lunch! @ my 1st Aunt's place. She's THE BEST cook!

We have chicken, fish, prawns, roast pork, braised sea cucumber with mushrooms (my fav.), abalones with spinach, chap chye and also soup (absence in this photo)!

Well, that's how my Week 8 looks like.

Meals for Week 7

Week 7 already! Time really flies...

09th Feb, Monday

Breakfast - Berry Chia Smoothie

It consists of mixed berries, chia seeds, water and pomegranate juice

Tasted sour and light. With the absence of almond milk or greek yogurt, I thought this will not last me till lunch time. Hence, I consumed a packet of noodles with 1 x hash brown and 1 x fish fillet.

Lunch was Quinoa, Smoked Paprika Salmon & Baked Capsicums and Onions

As I've BSF class on Monday, dinner will be out.

I had my all-time favourite - Chicken Rice (Drumstick & Back Part) along with some Beansprouts.

It's a big portion for 1 but I usually take it this way. I'm a glutton. >.<

I did however, notice that I got really thirsty after 2 - 3 hours. It has got to be the MSG.

I shall keep this at bay...

10th Feb, Tuesday

Breakfast - Raspberry Chia Smoothie

It consists of raspberries, banana, greek yogurt, chia seeds, apple juice & vanilla extract.

This tasted much better than the smoothie on Monday. Besides, the color also looks much better...

Lunch - Soba with Tofu & Zucchini

Nice, light and refreshing!

Dinner at Comnam. Read HERE.

11th Feb, Wednesday

Breakfast was 2 slices of toast with Peanut Butter from 2nd Helpings, 

along with a glass of orange juice.

1 week passes so quickly... Time flies!

Another round of sharing. ^^

It was only this afternoon that I decided to include breakfasts and dinners as well.

However, I can tell you in words what I had for breakfast!

It was banana, mixed berries, almond milk, ground flaxseed, honey and instant oats smoothie.

Lunch was Quinoa with Balsamic Chicken, Roasted Capsicums 

and my favorite salsa - Black Bean and Corn.

Yummy... LURVE capsicums!

Snack was a piece of wholemeal bread with homemade hummus. Yum...

Dinner was Tomato & Fennel Soup

Tasted really sour, that's all I can say...

Okie! For 03rd Feb, Tuesday, I had a smoothie for breakfast.

My smoothie is made up of watermelon, dates, chia seeds, mixed berries and water.

Lunch was the same as the one on Monday. Delicious!

Dinner was out. I had Pontian Wanton Noodles (big size with additional fried wantons)

Yup! This was the same breakfast as the one on Monday!

Lunch was out since we had an overseas customer.

We had it at Marriott Hotel - Crossroads.

I shared this with J along with some mayo.

This is Laksa with added Crayfish.

I must say the crayfish isn't as fresh as I'd like it to be but the prawns were huge...

Having had a heavy lunch, dinner is just a bowl of soup - Cauliflower & Watercress.

Yummy... Not salty enough but then again, too much salt is no good.

Breakfast on 05th Feb, Thursday was Vegetarian Bee Hoon.

I was so hungry I forgot to take a photo of it. >.<

This is what I had for lunch on Monday, 26th Jan.

Black Bean & Corn Salsa, Balsamic Chicken & Quinoa cooked in chicken stock!

Best lunch so far... No kidding...

As for my snack, it's a banana.

I had Wholemeal Spaghetti with Black Bean & Corn Salsa (I love this thing man...) 

for lunch on 27th Jan, Tuesday.

I made Granola Bars (Cranberries & Apple) in the evening of 26th Jan, Monday.

I had a piece of this as my snack on 27th Jan, Tuesday. Yummy... Not too sweet too! ^^

Come 28th Jan, Wednesday, my lunch is the same as what I had on 26th Jan i.e. Black Bean & Corn Salsa, Balsamic Chicken & Quinoa cooked in chicken stock. My snack was however slightly different. See photo below:

My yummy Cranberry & Apple Granola crumbs with Light Greek Yogurt

It's light greek yogurt 'cos the helper bought the wrong one. I usually take the standard version and somehow, I don't know for what reason, she bought the light version.

My lunch on 29th Jan, Thursday

This is Quinoa with Smoked Paprika Salmon and Black Bean & Corn Salsa

Taste good... Love salmon with smoked paprika. My 1st!

Snack was Light Greek Yogurt with Cranberry & Apple Granola Crumbs!

Lunch for 30th Jan, Friday is the same as the one on 29th Jan, Thursday.

I did however make some Hummus last night 

and so for my snack today, it's Hummus with Carrot Sticks! Photo below:

I did add some Cayenne powder on my Hummus today.

Chickpeas has lots of fibre which is good for me...

This more or less sums up what I had for weekdays.

Come weekend, I give my body a rest and go with what my helper cooks at home.

Weekends is also the time I have a few meals away from home. ^^

I'm going to include in exercise (walking for an hour) in my daily routine come February 2015.

My weight is at 63 kgs and % of fats is 34.1.

I'll see how much I can lose in the next month and will blog about it!

Have a great weekend peeps!
