At the risk of sounding utterly boring, I just wanted to reiterate that "dieting" doesn't need to mean BBT (boring bland or tasteless). With a little imagination and creativity you will look forward to meal times. I am on a one woman mission to re educate, reboot and challenge your tastebuds making healthy nutrition easy … Continue reading CREATIVE IN THE KITCHEN

VISCERAL FAT
When we talk about body fat it's really important that you understand that there are two types of fat, one is subcutaneous which makes up about 80% of the fat and the other is visceral., the fat around our organs. The subcutaneous fat is the visible fat, like baby rolls, the fat you can pinch … Continue reading VISCERAL FAT
Veg shortage, let’s get creative…
My name is Lina and I am a courgette addict. There you go, I said it.... So, Courgette Eaters Anonymous have helped me through this rather dark period in my life. It's been three weeks since I have been able to find any courgettes in my local farmers markets or supermarkets. I know, I know, … Continue reading Veg shortage, let’s get creative…
HI PROTEIN
I recently posted an article on the benefits of protein in your diet. As I mentioned in that post, proteins are the building blocks of our bodies. They are particularly important for building muscle which is why we should incorporate protein in every meal. No, no, no! That's doesn't mean steak for breakfast lunch and … Continue reading HI PROTEIN

Raspberry chia jam, porridge topped with frozen raspberries, freeze dried raspberries, raspberry compote, chocolate fudge with raspberry, protein muffins with raspberries and so it goes on … Continue reading Raspberry Lover
PRICE CRUNCH BULLS**T
The great supermarket con! Price crunch, buy one get one free. Simply a ploy to encourage us to impulse buy more than we need. Have you ever stopped and noticed that these deals are never on quinoa, brown rice, salad bags or anything remotely healthy! You won't see these deals in daily essentials like toilet … Continue reading PRICE CRUNCH BULLS**T
COCO – NUT
If there is such a thing, I am definitely a Coco-Nut. A slight obsession of mine and I simply can't get enough of it. Coconut, for those of you that don't know (where have you been???) is so versatile and has so many uses. You may have seen from my posts, I buy a super … Continue reading COCO – NUT
