Arrival of the Green Coffee Bean
My coffee bean extract arrived today and I’m really looking forward to seeing if there is any change in the next few weeks. I took two today before lunch and there was a change by dinner.
Last week on my cheat day we ordered crust pizza and I ate a whole one by myself. Tonight we did the same and I couldn’t take another bite after half.
I’m not saying that this is because of the extract but you’ve got to wonder. I’ll keep posted on it.
Please note that I am in no way recommending this brand. Do your own research. Most of the reviews on the internet I can’t believe because they recommend specific brands and have links to buy them which probably means they’re getting paid by that company.

Love a workout with a pep talk. No one can do it like Tiffany Rothe.
Clean Satay Chicken
Here’s a super quick yummy dinner.
Adapt the recipe to the amount of chicken you’re using, it doesn’t matter if you make too much satay sauce.
Ingredients:
2 heaped dessert spoons of macro peanut butter
2 heaped dessert spoons of greek yoghurt
Chicken breast/tenderloins
Method:
Mix together peanut butter and greek yoghurt
In a large bowl mix the raw chicken with the satay sauce until all chicken is coated
Cook in frying pan
Serve with steamed veggies
Tip: There will be a lot of crusty bits stuck to the bottom of your frying pan. Scrape them up and put them on top of your chicken because they’re really yummy.
