So its now May, boy does time fly. So Ive still got this rubbish cold/chest infection. Its mostly just a really chesty cough now but its still annoying. I'm getting fed up of being in bed and not doing anything, that's me also missed 3 days wages.
So since I feel a little bit better I'm going to restart my diet/exercise tomorrow. I'm thinking today as day 0 again :( because Ive been unwell since Monday Ive been eating chicken noodle soup a lot as it seems to be the only thing I can handle, that and nutella lol.
I'm going to do things differently this time round, only taking photos on day 0, 30, 60 and 90. I'm also listening to the audio book just now tat helped me last time quit smoking and I'm going to listen to it once a week, probably a Sunday. Also for Lent I gave up fizzy juice and sugar in my tea and coffee I'm just going to carry that on and only drink water, I'm also going to drink more water.
No more sweets and chocolate, and If I do want anything like that I can only have it once a week. Also no more crisps, processed foods are going to be kept to a minimum. I'm also going to try and cook all my meals from scratch and maybe bulk make them and just freeze something for ease. Sticking to the diet nutrition plan of the program was really hard for me but I'm going to use myplate or something similar to track my calories.
Well I think I'm just rambling on just now, so Ill leave it there. I'm going to go listen to my book and play Pokemon.
Welcome to my blog were you can join me on my P90x journey, and hopefully watch me going from flab to fab.

Recipe Creamy Spaghetti and Crispy Bacon
So this is the dinner that I made last night, it serves 4 people. It only take roughly 20 minutes to make all together.
1. Cook 400g of spaghetti, following the packets instructions
2. Meanwhile, cut 300g of bacon up into strips of little squares whatever you like. Fry it in a little oil until crispy. Remove from the pan when done and set aside on a plate.
3. in the same frying pan you just removed the bacon from fry 1 onion that's been diced, 1 clove of garlic that's been peeled and sliced, for 3-4 minutes. Return the bacon to the pan and add a handful of spinach leaves, 1 egg yolk, 75ml of single cream and 75ml of milk. Stir well until hated throughout. Remove from the heat and add the cooked spaghetti to the pan, stir well and serve.
Its got quite a lot of fat in it. One serving is 779 calories, 39.2g fat, 20.9g of saturated fat, 3.5g salt and 8.3g sugar. So I wouldn't go making this on a nightly bases. If anyone makes this tell me how it went and if you enjoyed it.
