Quim that is an amazing amount of steps! Well done.

I'm like TV in that I only manage 5000 or so most days. I always feel like I am constantly running around at work, apparently I'm not!

Thanks Stellar, I guess I can give it a go, I'm just slightly worried that I might pass out and whack myself around the head with my barbell

Hmmm healthy meal ideas.. I can post some of the things I have eaten recently, if that helps. I am veggie though so they are probably more carb heavy than meaty things, but you could always add meat if you wanted to.

Thai red curry (I don't bother making the coconut rice bit so no idea if it works or not, but the curry itself is nice)
Artichoke and sundried tomato hash
Sausages with oregano, mushroom and olives
West African peanut soup
Pea, feta, and summer herb frittata
Soba noodles with mushrooms and cabbage

I also love daal with whatever vegetables I have in, but I don't have a particular recipe for that.

That peanut soup sounds great, Spuriouser, tempted to give it a go. What spicy sauce do you use for it?

Yep, I am Fitbitted up Stellar. I love my fitbit, have even been known to keep it on for Christmas nights out so I can get those boogie steps in!

Pony I have sent you a message to your mn inbox. And soft I just got your message! Sorry. I am mainly on the app which doesn't have that facility.

Spurious those recipes look amazing. I feel I need to step up to the meals plate Thank you for copying all those over.

Thanks Stellar, have added you (I think). Am excited! Stepping as we speak... 😆

Pony I normally just use chilli powder to be honest! Pretty sure any spicy sauce/paste would work though.

No problem Stellar, hope they are a bit helpful!

Hello all. Sorry I've been super busy and neglecting you all nothing to do with my shameful weekend of gluttony oh no siree

I've managed a day of gold today. Lots of steps, not too many calories, loads of water and no booze.

Go me.

Shall I start a new thread?

Ok I've done it.

Sorry the title's a bit shit. Done in a bit of a rush as I want to go to bed!
