Conference time! πŸ€“πŸ“πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ“

Super excited to be heading down to London tomorrow for a day of lectures all about Metabolic Resilience. ☺️

Helping people optimise their metabolism is quite a big part of my job, even those who don't come to me with a primary goal of weight loss often have it as a secondary goal.

🍎 There have been massive changes in weight loss philosophy recently, with greater understanding that the overly simplistic 'calories in calories out' model doesn't work (who knew?!). Instead there is better understanding of working with our physiology and supporting our metabolism, for healthy weight loss / weight maintenance- without restrictive diets or denial.

πŸ’‰And now the landscape is changing even faster, with increasingly widespread use of the weight loss jabs, which hijack natural appetite regulation systems to drive rapid weight loss. Too good to be true??

🀒 Yes probably... they carry with them a raft of frequent side effects - but that's a post for another day.

But they are probably here to stay so this conference focuses on the latest science in supporting metabolic health in a world where clients will invariably want the magic bullet of weight loss jabs.

Cant wait to learn more and spend a day geeking out on science! πŸ€“πŸ‘Œ

Apples 🍎 πŸπŸ‚πŸŒ³

I've escaped from nursing my family and their collection of bugs (even the dog is poorly πŸ™ˆ) to spend some time outside.

We still have apples on the trees and storm Amy did a good job helping me harvest them!

Apples are my favourite fruit to eat and recommend once summer turns to autumn and berry season is over.


🍏 They are relatively low in sugar and high in fibre so they are a great part of a blood sugar balancing diet.

🍎 Their fibre makes them fantastic for the gut too - a great source of fuel for our nicrobiome and fabulous for helping resolve constipation.

πŸ’ͺ They are also rich in nutrients including vitamin C for fighting those back to school bugs and polyphenols like quercetin which is a natural antihistamine.

⭐️ Best ways to eat them:

* Straight from the tree (I couldn't resist!)

* Chopped or grated in overnight oats or porridge

* Stewed with cinnamon (seriously the best natural constipation relief)

* In crumbles or oaty snack bars

* Sliced with peanut butter

⭐️ Tips:

1. Eating the skin boasts the fibre content

2. Red apples are higher in quercetin so better for antihistamine actions

3. Try cooking with eating apples so you don't need to add extra sugar. Adding cinnamon enhances the sweetness without adding sugar

Autumn days 🍁πŸ₯¬πŸ₯•πŸ₯”

I must admit I'm not very excited about it being autumn, mainly because the temperature has plummeted and its rainy on the school run πŸ₯ΆπŸŒ¨

But I am loving being able to harvest and eat some lovely veg from our garden. It's been massively neglected and over run with weeds, but nature has battled through and we have runner beans, squash, rainbow chard, courgettes and some surprise potatoes ready to eat. And the weeding has been my preferred therapeutic activity in the past few weeks.

This was our Sunday dinner - I rarely cook one but the veg inspired me. The lamb (obvs), beetroot, onions and carrot were not from our garden (those veg were from my veg box), but everything else was.

Roast lamb with anchovies, garlic and rosemary

Roast surprise potatoes (self seeded, discovered during weeding!)

Roasted courgettes & mini pumpkin wedges

Roasted beetroot, carrot and onion (new favourite mix)

Rainbow chard fried in butter with garlic and a squeeze of lemon

Roasted and mashed 'Mashed potato squash' - with butter, salt and pepper

Ubiquitous runner beans - steamed!

I think that was everything. It was delicious and did 2 meals (largely because my kids refused all of the veg πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ). But Alex and I enjoyed it!

Back to it!! πŸ’ͺ

It's been a long long summer but the kids are finally back in school!

Like many trapped in school years, September feels more like the start of the year more than January! Time to get back on it!

So, with 3 kids dispatched safely to school (one on his birthday πŸŽ‚!), I dragged myself back to the gym (it was great, if hard πŸ‹β€β™€οΈ) and then enjoyed a protein rich breakfast and coffee in the morning sunshine - ON MY OWN!! (Well, with just a greedy labrador for company).

Now off to open my computer and launch back into work again. Lots of exciting plans ahead for the autumn and some lovely new clients to support πŸ₯‘πŸ₯˜πŸ₯πŸ€Έβ€β™€οΈ

Hope you all find some time for you again and enjoy the week ahead. X

The ideal camping breakfast?? πŸ₯žπŸ“πŸ«πŸ§€

We have what we call crepes (really a version of a Galette) most days at home.

My kids have them for breakfast, I often have them for lunch. They are quick and easy, gluten free, protein rich, higher in fibre than normal pancakes and can be sweet (for my kids) or savoury (for me!).

I've never made them on holiday before but have discovered they are perfect for this. They mix up really easily because they are gluten free, you never get lumps in the batter. They cook in minutes so don't use too much gas.

You just need a frying pan and some fillings: sugar, lemon, berries, peanut butter, Nutella (don't judge, we are on holiday!), cheese, ham, rocket, smoked salmon, eggs etc).

Recipe

150g Buckwheat flour
2 eggs
300 ml milk
1-2 tbsp ground flax seed

* Put the flour a bowl and break in the eggs

* Whisk with a fork until the eggs are mixed in. Add about 50-100ml of the milk and stir until it makes a thick smooth batter

* Add the rest of the milk and stir until smooth.

* Stir in the flaxseed and leave the mixture to settle for 5 mins

* Add water until you get the consistency of double cream

* Melt a blob of butter in a good frying pan (non stick is best) over a high heat

* Pour in enough mixture to coat the bottom of the pan whilst swirling it.

* Cook until the edges brown (around 1-2 mins). Flip over using a spatula and cook for another minute.

* Fill with sweet or savoury fillings and roll or fold.

No two crepes come out the same! If the pan is very hot, they are lacey with bubbles and go more crispy (how I like them), but the first one is usually more like a crepe without holes and less crispy (how my son loves them). Play around with it and see what you like best.

Photos are from camping and from home, showing the versatility and how we enjoy them!
