I have defeated the final boss of the Oh-Crap-I-Forgot-My-Lunch instance: Pizza the Hut His main attacks are: being delicious breadstick stab BBQ Chicken Coma Food is expensive But I won! Ended up getting a turkey-on-wheat sandwich from the office vending area. saved about $15 and about 8000 calories.

So, I cannot claim this recipe, I found it on pinterest (I know, how basic of me) and thought I would give it a go. I made a single serving though, and used only one chicken breast (so I roughly cut the ingredients in thirds... yes, even the egg) But let me just say... I AM IN NO GUILT PIZZA HEAVEN! It had all the yummy qualities of pizza, the texture was nice, and can we talk about all that protein? AND I AM SO FULL! Pizza never leaves me full. I love it so much, but I'm always still so hungry afterwards. I HIGHLY recommend anyone give it a go. http://www.surfandsunshine.com/guilt-free-chicken-crust-pizza-recipe/

Ingredients: 500g mince of your choice (I used lean turkey breast mince, but mince beef comes out much better) 4 eggs 1 tin of chopped tomatoes Topping(s) of your choice (I went with non-paleo chickpeas and Mediterranean vegetables) Season as preferred (I used turmeric with the mince and oregano and pepper with the toppings. To prep: Preheat oven to 200C, spread a small amount of oil or butter on a baking tray. Break the mince into small pieces and fry the mince in a pan, stir and seperate it constantly, when it turns brown (turkey mince turns white) add 4 eggs that have been whisked (or preferably blended) thoroughly. Continue to stir and seperate for a few minutes. Add the mixture to the baking tray flattened but curved at the edges (you're essentially shaping it to hold the chopped tomatoes, like a tray within the tray). Once the tray is in the oven, add the toppings (in my case chickpeas and veg) to the pan and fry. Once the toppings are done, add the tin of tomatoes and continue to cook for around 5 minutes (ensure the mince/egg base has been in the oven for 10-15 minutes, it should be relatively solid by this point). Take the tray out of the oven, pour the sauce plus toppings evenly across the inside of the mince. Place the tray back in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Serve as preferred, I did so with roasted butternut squash.

Starting point at March 2012:Weight: 212lbBust: 42"Waist: 38"Hips: 46" Deadlift: 40kgBench: 20kgOverhead press: 17.5kg Current:Weight: 147lbBust: 33"Waist: 27"Hips: 36" Took a 6 month break and only just restarted weight training a month ago, so:Deadlift: 60kgBench: 40kgOverhead press: 27.5kg Reached a point where I've run out of specific targets, so I'm hoping this first challenge will help me get back on track. When I first started exercising a little over a year ago my goal was "get down to ~145lb", and as I'm now at 147lb I'm floundering a little with what I really want to do. Sat down and had a think, and these are the things that I think are a/ important or b/ a defining factor in something that is important. Goals: Fitness:Deadlift bodyweight / Decline bench 50kg / 1x pull-up STR +3Attend kickboxing class once a week. DEX +2Cycle 100miles per week, finish challenge with 1x 60 mile ride. STA +2 STR:Current deadlift: 60kgCurrent weight: 67kgCurrent dec. bench: 40kgCurrent pull-up: no pull-ups (14kg assist / 2x 5second negatives) DEX:I'm blind in one eye, so my co-ordination and general dexterity leave a lot to be desired; I'm hoping that kickboxing will improve this, given the need to be able to hit things and not fall over a lot. STA:I'm signed up for the British Heart Foundation London to Brighton bike-ride on June 16th, and my current max mileage is 35. Granted, this was in the snow, in the dark, and I got gritted, but still, I need to do better. Diet:Eat paleo+dairy (refuse to cut out cheese or milk) five days out of seven for the duration. CON +2 Currently doing my best, but need some serious accountability so that I don't eat pasta and potato all the time. 5/7 is mostly because I refuse to cut out pizza night: they set up a wood-fired oven a mile down the road and cook the lightest and most delicious fresh Sicilian pizza. Giving that up = not happening. Life:Study for 7+ hours a week. WIS +4Try changing one item of physical appearance every week: different outfit / makeup / haircut / nails / etc. CHA +2 WIS:My boss just paid £270.00 for my next 3 accountancy exams, if I fail them I have to pay him back. I paid for the courses, if I pass I get the money back (~£500.00). CHA:I have a terrible inability to do basic female stuff, like dress myself or wear makeup or care about what I look like. My standard outfit is jeans + t-shirt + scrappy ponytail + no makeup + clipped/chipped nails + no-f*cks-given attitude. Mostly a throwback to when I was bigger and it was the easiest thing to do, but now I'm more-or-less the right size to rock whatever I want, so there's no reason for me to not do so. Also, learning makeup would be a huge life bonus, I think. And dresses. Wish me luck! Makeup and clothes are TERRIFYING!
