I don't think the fruit *is* that expensive. Some out of season & imported things can be, but generally in season uk grown fruits & veg aren't - perhaps with a few exceptions like asparagus. At loca market stalls you can get a weeks worth of fruit & veg for 2 adults & 2 kids for £15, Aldi/Lidl have fruit/veg of the week 6…

Peanut butter, on toast with slices of banana. Or a spoonful mixed with soft cheese and served with sliced apple :)

I'm not vegetarian but do have plenty of meat free days/mf meals. Quinoa porridge made with almond milk for breakfast is good and higher protein than oat porridge, flavour with honey cinnamon & raisin is my favourite, but if you need the extra protein maybe add a spoonful of flavoured soy protein powder?

L1D3 completed last night, and it was actually ok! I got through it with fewer 5 second breaks than day 2, and I didnt collapse onto the sofa right after it.

L1D2 done, I found that quite hard work and felt like I couldn't keep up as much as yesterday, which is disappointing but to be expected I guess - it will get easier eventually I'm sure! I hate cardio, I really do. Give me weights any day! I'm still on the improvised water bottle weights, but I've got 2x 2.5kg bags of…

Hi All :) I did L1D1 last night and I'm not feeling too bad right now - though the cardio is not my friend! I dont have hand weights and wanted to get a start on it so improvised with some 1lt water bottles, worked well enough, I can defintely feel it. I'm not enjoying push-ups, I'd love to be able to do them and know if I…

Thanks for the response, very helpful :-) Ihadnt thought about riding clubs - as a single parent I don't have too much time to myself outside the house but ill certainly look into it, I was thinking of getting an indoor trainer to get used to being sat in the saddle for a while, hopefully that'll help - along with some…
