Looks like I haven't put anything on the grid for over a year! I used to mostly post recipes but thinking of mixing it up a bit.

This little pic is to celebrate how far I've come with my health and fitness over the last few years.

I was always pretty healthy and fit of slightly varying levels over the years. I've always put in a fairly consistent effort.
But between 2023 and 2025 I dealt with a couple of severely stressful situations, a car crash injury, symmetrical joint pains throughout my body (severe enough to stop me standing up at some points), then just when I thought I was starting to get back to normal, Hepatitis A.

Yes, I've gained weight over these challenges (not hard to do with PMOS). But more importantly I lost strength and fitness and therefore lost the capacity to embrace life so well.

So why this photo?
Since recovering from Hepatitis in November, I have worked really hard to rebuild strength and fitness.
This hard work has allowed me to perform in two very physical venues, one of which was a very physical show: Richmond Theatre and The Minack.

So here is a snap from the Minack. It's an open air, cliffside theatre so you need to be fairly for just for a one off visit.

Yes, I've lost weight. But I don't actually weigh myself or count calories. I aim to intentionally be fit and healthy in the most realistic way for whatever my current circumstances may be.
This means that each time I've been knocked back with illness or injury, it's been pretty natural to return to a healthy lifestyle afterwards. And natural to be constantly learning and improving.

Anyway, keep your fingers crossed for me that I don't have anymore injuries or illnesses in the near future 🤣💪🏼 although if I do, I know I can overcome them as I have before. by @pmos.jas

Baked beans pimped for PCOS (and generally health). It is possible to upgrade the simple meals a little!

Wholegrain, seeded toast, lactose free butter (my hepatitis made me lactose intolerant), and sprinkled milled flax seed,

Baked beans topped with a balsamic vinegar and EVOO mix and mixed seeds,

Side salad of lettuce, cucumber and spring onion (eaten first for blood sugar balance),

Black pepper.

And herbal throat tea so I can sing today!

This tasted amazing and was quick to prepare for just me last night.

Sweet potato from frozen, oven cooked 30 mins,

Stir fry veg from the fridge: tomatoes, yellow pepper, garlic, mushrooms with coriander, cumin, black pepper, ginger and a pinch of turmeric,

Towards the end I added frozen sweetcorn, broke two eggs into the pan, topped up the spices and stirred until the eggs were scrambled.

It created a healthy, comforting food which included every vitamin, choline, fibre, unprocessed protein, colourful veg and fibre... plus more!

Soup and salad!

Tinned soup is a really affordable and convenient option. And my 3yo really wanted tinned tomato today.

So here is how I served it for both of us to make it more nutrient dense and, in my case, more PCOS friendly:

Mine: added black pepper, grated cheese and my daughter's crusts as croutons. Served with a side salad of what I could find in the fridge plus black pepper and balsamic vinegar; mixed leaves, white onion, orange pepper, a few mixed nuts for added protein and turmeric kimchi. Seeded wholegrain toast with real butter.

Her: soup served without cheese according to her preference, seeded toast with butter, peanut butter on a spoon for the main protein, orange peppers.

One for when I need a quick breakfast that's healthy enough to keep me full, energetic and blood sugars balanced through the morning.

Rye bread toasted (love this but normally have cheaper bread. Rye was what was left in our local shop last night. Yum),

Sprinkled some chia seeds on for extra fibre (I buy a bag of these, they last forever and I put it on my toddler's toast too),

Peanut butter, (just the cheap one as we can't stretch to the 100% right now),

Blueberries,

Cinnamon.
