It's time for my weigh in Wednesday post. There isn't really anything new to add to the update, I'm continuing with my walking and logging my meals.

I think my weight is pretty much the same, with some measurements going down, but I have taken pictures to show any changes in the past 6 months. While there isn't much in changes physically to be seen, I definitely feel it more mentally and I definitely feel healthier when it comes to enjoying walking to work as well as not feeling my heart beat at times, as well as not getting out of breath as much as I used to.

Well that's it for another update. As we head into the festive season, I won't lie that it will be tough, and I definitely think I'll put weight back on, but it won't stop me in the hopes I'll lose it again as we get back to normal.

See you soon!

Cook restaurant quality meals!
Each box comes with 4 recipe kits and 4 step-by-step recipe cards.
Following the recipes, you combine the kits with 4-6 items from your fridge or cupboard.
Then in just 20 minutes  you'll be enjoying a delicious meal for 2-4 people.


First from this box I cooked the Miso Cod Donburi. In this kit you get Shiro Miso Paste, Soy & Honey Sauce and Yasi Seasoning.

Marinate the cod.


Cook the veg.


Finishing touches.


Serve!


This dish was really easy and quick to make.
I love this dish, it's full of flavour and perfectly filling, I love all the flavours. We've had this dish a few times since the first time having it, and we've also had it with sugarsnap peas, as well as mangetout. I definitely prefer it with either the sugarsnap peas or mangetout.

Next from this box I cooked the Mexican Chicken Tinga Tacos. In this kit you get Chipotle Mix, Smoky Paprika Mix and Salsa Paste.

I love this dish as it's all cooked in one dish.
This dish is full of flavour and I love the mixture of the flavours as well as the textures. This is definitely a dish we enjoy getting.

Next from this box I cooked the Moghul Chicken Korma. In this kit you get Korma Curry Paste, Coconut & Garlic Puree and Korma Spice Mix.



This is definitely one of a favourites. It's really quick and easy to make.
The flavours are amazing and I have to say that for me it's definitely better than shop bought, I love getting this in our boxes.

Lastly from this box I cooked the Keralan Prawn Curry. In this kit you get Keralan Curry Paste, Garlic & Turmeric Paste and South Indian Garnish.

Fry the paste.


Add the veg.

Make the sauce.



Heat the rice.

Serve!

This dish is really quick and easy to make.
I like a curry, but I think I lean more towards prawn curries. I know Skye tends to like the dishes we have that are prawn dishes. I really liked the flavours and I definitely prefer having the cherry tomatoes, instead of courgette.

Each box is £11.78 or £9.99 if you click ship now, with your first box being a trial price of £3.
If you are interested in making your own Simply Cook subscription, then head over to the Simply Cook website, to check out more details as well as their big catalogue of dishes to make.
