Over the last 7 months I’ve been on a weight loss journey.  As every journey is there are ups and downs.  I’ve lost about 37lb and I’m working on more.  With my sister getting engaged last week and a wedding to look forward to I have all the more incentive to drop more and get even healthier however  as time goes by there are certain foods that I love and really miss.

Like a good Shawarma Sandwich. There is a fast food place here that makes an incredible one and its a huge challenge for me not to pick up the phone and order. While at face value a basic sandwich may not seem so bad there are so many factors that make it unhealthy. Firstly the portion size is much larger then I need and second there tends to be a high level of sodium in fast food items.

Shawarma Sandwich

Today, really hungry, I ran into the grocery to grab some items to make lunch.  I passed the bakery section and caught sight of the Lafas and instantly I was craving a Shawarma sandwich. I remembered I had at home some fabulous Shawarma spice, so I grabbed the Lafas and some chicken and came home to create.

And what came out was UTTER perfection, beyond what I could have imagined!! This recipe is for sure being added to my repertoire of easy dinners!

Summer is here and whilst most of my work doesn’ Summer is here and whilst most of my work doesn’t stop my day job in a school is not during the summer. This gives me some precious days to focus on stuff I’ve neglected. I’m being more cognizant of my food choices and with that the relaunch of my blog. Stay tuned for details. Ps. This smoothie was amazing for breakfast! .

It’s amazing how something as simple as a hairst It’s amazing how something as simple as a hairstyle can make you feel so amazing. I was always a curly girl, then I got married and had to cover my hair. Curly wigs were not a thing so I got used to other styles. Gitel from @gitelwigs saw my frustration and she created this piece for me. I cannot express how much I love it, and always remember. You don’t have to do what everyone else is doing. Do what makes you happy! .
