Roasted baby carrots! They taste just like sweet potato fries except you don't have to cut or peel them. Just put them in a roasting tin, little bit of olive oil and roast in 400F oven for about 30mins turning once yummy!

I think everyone has slip ups on the weekend because we feel like we have been good all week so we deserve to 'cheat' on the weekend, at least I do. I guess continue drinking lots of water, the best way I find is to have a water bottle with you at all times. So even if you're sitting on the couch have it sitting next to…
