you will need:
Cooked shellfish mix
1 fillet of fish, any variety however i find smoked haddock packs more flavour!
half a medium tub of low fat cottage cheese
for flavour:
chilli powder
1 tsp sweetener
salt and pepper
1 chicken stock cube diluted to your desired strength
mixed spice
paprika
Fry the fish fillet and chop roughly into smaller segments,
move to a saucepan
add the fish and shellfish
mix together the cream cheese and the flavourings and spices and add this to the fish
fill the saucepan to the amount you want with the chicken stock.
Leave to simmer (keep tasting to get the desired flavour)

Further work
Right guys.
A recommended 20 minute walk each day...its a dreadful day...but lets give it a go 20 mins of exercise daily boosts the metabolism enough to kick start this diet!
Also make sure you get to bed by 12 most nights! it really boosts metabolism and energy.
Also I had a course of hypnotherapy once and she recommended the 12 o clock sleep routine as the brain stores so much information each day and needs to process it to eliminate the bad from the good information thus leaving you in a fabulous mood again and revitalized! if you don't get enough sleep your brain doesn't get enough time to process the negative information and your left with it to carry through another day!!!
This is so highly recommended by myself as well. especially for those of you with severe body hang ups or stressful personalities. I stress like stupid over nothing half the time!
So there's some true brain study facts there x

Tuesday
Tueday:
The standard scramble and yogurt combo! still going strong :)
Lunch:
Tandoori Chicken drummers!!!!
OK so for these you will need some fat free yogurt and a leg quarter or drumsticks whichever you fancy (skinless and cut all visible fat)
I bought 2 chicken leg quarters for 99P at Aldi!!!!! also you will need any spices you have lying around! perfect!
To make the yogurt topping:
use a small bowl and pour in the yogurt (not too much obviously but whatever fills ya)
mix together with:
1 teaspoon artificial sweetener
some salt and pepper
curry powder
1 tsp mixed spice
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
Roast the chicken in the oven for 30 mins! after that take out the chicken and pour on your yogurt concoction and roast for a further 20 mins.
I got so full on one leg quarter that i kept the second for Wednesday! bargain much!!! £££££
Then for Dinner:
I had some spare cooked shellfish from the previous night so i put in that and some cooked chicken into a saucepan with 1 chicken stock cube. i let it simmer until the stock cube had dispersed and it also smelt of seafood not just chicken.
Finally i added the last bit of leftover chilli cottage cheese from monday and let it simmer a little longer.
Just make sure its hot basically :)
That was the nicest meal ever!!!
Protein rich!
This week's diet has been so far:
Monday:
2 Scrambled eggs and a fat free coconut greek style yoghurt. ps why did no one tell me about greek style yogurt its thick creamy and amazing and you can get it fat free!! incredible!
oh and my standard 2 cups of green tea.
Lunch:
Chunky chicken pieces (no skin or fat)
Dinner:
A large smoked haddock fillet with shellfish on top covered with a gorgeous half tub of low fat SWEET CHILLI cottage cheese...aaah so filling so good!
then i had a cup of skimmed milk before bed with vanilla essence and artificial sweetener.

Current Diet
Well after considerable trauma over whether to follow weight watchers, slimming world, starve orbecome anorexic I have settled for now with tips from every diet i've encountered and has helped me along the way.
This is working progress of course. A journey
My current diet i am following is:
Half a slice of melon for breakfast or maybe a weight watchers bagel with jam- love sweet things!
I live off green tea and it has changed my skin forever! very nice!
I have 2 cups in the morning.
For lunch I eat a 2 egg scrambled egg with 2 pieces of ham and more green tea
(Scrambled Egg recipe)
2 eggs
glug of milk
salt and pepper (try more pepper than salt as salt will bloat and absorb water!)
use light spray to coat the saucepan!!! butter if you must
For an interesting flavour top with a squeeze of tomato puree
OR to increase your metabolic activity add half a teaspoon of chilli powder...tastes awesome!
At Tea i generally eat a warm salad, making sure i fill up on leaves, green vegetables and a bit of meat (my love is for Salmon)
If being served by family like i am mostly- follow the pattern by eating the green vegetables then the protein, then for any carbs have maybe about 4/5 fork fulls
At night i also enjoy a cup of light options cocoa!

Welcome
Hey There,
This Blog has been set up for people in as much of a twist as I've always found myself in.
I am on a fashion Design course and Body image and personal reflection really takes it's toll on you-maybe over-rules you like it does with me and has for many years.
This blog is to chart recipes, reflection tips and techniques and other issues which I find we often put ourselves through.
So power to us!
Yours,
AC
