🍫3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
🍫2 Dates (softened)
🍫Tsp Maca (optional)
Pinch of Salt
TOPPING
🍫45g Vegan Chocolate
🍫Tsp Coconut Oil
Instructions

Weight gain journey- June 2020 (1st pic) no period Weight gain journey- June 2020 (1st pic) no period to 1st period Sept 20 (2nd) and post period recovery now (3rd pic)! 
You guys voted in my stories yesterday to hear a bit more about my weight changes over this time and how this correlated to my calories. Ive never actually shared numbers with you before so I’m a bit nervous as I don’t want anyone to aim for the same as we are all different but thought I’d include them to give you a bit of a better picture. 
So in June 2020 I was eating around 2000 calories at 51-52kg. I increased calories to 2500-3000 the beginning of July and began gaining around 3lb (1.3kg) a month. I regained my period end of sept after 3 months of eating this amount of calories and gaining weight to around 57kg I continued to make sure I ate similar calories until around November when I had my second period and then end of December to now I relaxed on the amount I was eating as I didn’t need to be eating 2500+ and I now eat intuitively according to my hunger but obviously still ensuring I eat enough. I tracked a few days last week out of interest and I’m eating between 2200-2400 a day I now weigh around 58.5kg. 
Overall that’s 7kg (15lb) weight gain. My weight has pretty much stayed the same now for a month. 
I know a lot of people worry that they will never be able to stop gaining weight but I truly believe your body finds a happy place which for me is the weight I’ve been at for the last month. I also felt quite ‘puffy’ for the first 4-5 months but this has reduced in the last month. 
Little takeaways: 
✅ The rate you start gaining weight won’t necessarily be the way your body continues to gain weight so don’t worry if it initially seems quick 
✅ your body is likely to find a weight it’s happy at and you’ll stabilise with the weight gain 
✅ the time taken for your body to find that happy place will vary for each person as will the amount of calories needed
✅ your likely to be able to maintain your weight at a much higher calories than where you started 
✅ that feeling of ‘puffiness’ or almost inflammation will reduce over time 
I hope that was useful but like I said don’t read too much into my specific numbers ❤️
Protein Pumpkin Pancakes 🥞 The fluffiest, ligh Protein Pumpkin Pancakes 🥞 
The fluffiest, lightest pancake stack that is healthy, gluten free and high in protein (with vegan subs)! 
I know pumpkin season has ended but I just love using it! Especially in pancakes and if you can still buy it then I’ll keep using it 😀
I’ve uploaded the recipe on my blog but here it is: 
✅40g Oat Flour (gluten free oats blended)
✅15g Protein powder - I used @myproteinuk cookies and cream flavour
✅¾ Tsp Baking Powder
✅Pinch Salt
✅Tbsp Pumpkin Puree (sub with mashed banana or apple purée) 
✅½ Tsp Pumpkin Spice or cinnamon 
✅A few @myproteinuk Toffee Flavour Drops (optional)
✅ 60g @twochicksproducts Egg Whites (sub with almond milk or 1 egg + a couple of Tbsps almond milk)
✅Tbsp Stevia or coconut Sugar
✅3 Tbsp Almond Milk
✅Coconut Oil for Frying
Instructions:
1. Combine all the above ingredients together to form a smooth batter. You may need to adjust the amount of almond milk depending on whether you use egg whites or not. I aim for a thick batter that's still pourable from a spoon.
2. Heat the coconut oil in a frying pan until melted and the pans hot. Fry around 1 tbsp and half of the mixture until the pancakes are golden on each side
3. Stack and top with your favourite toppings- I used yoghurt, pecans, blubs @myproteinuk cacao nibs and maple syrup 😍😍
Have a great Sunday!

❕Weight gain anxiety- dealing with clothes getti ❕Weight gain anxiety- dealing with clothes getting tighter❕A couple of things that you guys asked me to talk a bit more on in relation to weight gain. 
A lot of you said it’s the anxiety of gaining weight that becomes a barrier for you and believe me it probably took me about 6 months of knowing I needed to put on weight to actually start doing it. The hardest part is actually starting and the first month or two of seeing changes in your body but after that it gets so much easier. 

What helped me was doing lots of research on HA and listening to podcasts on it. I knew that if I wanted my period back it was the only option, I then heard this from a doctor too which gave me the final nudge to start! 

I’ve said it before but that’s when I set a really clear goal of 10lb weight gain I then had something concrete to aim for which really helped! 

Some may have seen recently on my stories I’ve had to buy a lot of new clothes as my jeans no longer fit and i can’t just squeeze into them. But actually trying on the new ones I bought I felt amazing.... the curves I now have meant clothes actually look better and don’t hang off me. Don’t get me wrong I loved the crop tops I could easily pull off and no longer can but I’ve also got my period back and feel amazing and to me that’s the biggest winner. 

Whether your trying to gain weight to recover your period or build muscle or whatever reason the following really helped me: 
✅set a clear goal
✅ focus on the WHY your doing it not the weight gain itself 
✅do lots of research and listen and chat to others who have done the same 
✅don’t try on clothes you know won’t fit anymore just buy new ones and try those first
✅ if something feels tight - try and sell it then use that to buy something new 
Anyway just a few little things that helped me ❤️

Vegan Chocolate Fudge Tahini Bar 🍫 A little thr Vegan Chocolate Fudge Tahini Bar 🍫 A little throwback to one of my fav vegan desserts/ snacks on my blog largely because it contains tahini which I love 😋 Although Tahini itself has a bit of a bitter taste it works so well when combined with the subtle sweetness of the chocolate and syrup.
For this easy no bake recipe you’ll need less than 10 ingredients, a couple of bowls and that’s pretty much it! 
You’ll need: 
OAT LAYER
✅50g Oat Flour (blended oats)
✅130g Oats
✅25g Vegan Protein- I used a coffee flavoured protein
✅Tbsp Cacao Powder
✅3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
✅70g Coconut Oil
TAHINI LAYER
✅100g Dark Chocolate
✅70g Tahini
✅2 Tbsp Maple Syrup
1. Stir together the oats, oat flour and cacao powder in a bowl and then pour in the melted coconut oil and 3 tbsp maple syrup and stir until sticky and combined.
2. Transfer ⅔ of this mixture to a parchment-lined dish (10x20cm) and press down firmly to form an even base layer. Place in the fridge to firm up while you make the tahini mixture.
3. Melt the chocolate and stir in the tahini and 2 tbsp maple syrup until well combined. Pour over the base layer.
4. Sprinkle over the remaining oat mixture and press down lightly. Place in the fridge for around 60 minutes to firm up.
5. Remove from the fridge and slice into bars
Enjoy 😀

Nothing exciting to offer today but yesterday’s Nothing exciting to offer today but yesterday’s simple oat bowl for brekkie was yum! Anyone else still add courgette/ zucchini to oats?! I like the texture it gives 🙊
To make:
1. Add about 100 ml water to a pan until simmering then add your oats (I have 60g)and grated courgette 
2. Cook on a low heat until the oats have nearly absorbed the water then add in around 200ml of @myproteinuk vanilla protein shake and continue to cook for around 5 mins make sure it doesn’t boil. I also add a couple of @myproteinuk toffee drops 
3. Once creamy and well cooked remove from the heat and top with frozen blubs and @myproteinuk almond butter 😍 simple but oh so good! Have a fab Wednesday!

Full Day of Eating: eating intuitively to maintain Full Day of Eating: eating intuitively to maintain my weight/ fuel my body!! Brownie points for spotting the animal 🐷😜
So little update: I’ve now had three periods post Amenorrhea so feel confident my body is back into its hormonal rhythm! I was going to continue eating what I felt was a surplus (roughly without tracking) to support muscle building however now they have shut Ive decided to try and just maintain my current weight until they reopen. I will eat intuitively based on my hunger... making sure I continue to fuel myself adequately but not necessarily eating beyond what I feel my body needs. If you’d be interested to know roughly what calories I now maintain on let me know and I might try and track a couple of days. Anyway here’s what I ate...
Meal 1: usual sourdough with @myproteinuk peanut butter and banana and @myproteinuk cacao nibs 
Meal 2: sweet omelette... recipe on my feed
Meal 3: two slices of sourdough with homemade chicken soup. I also had some fruit: kiwi and orange not pictured 
Snack: @myproteinuk carb crusher 
Meal 3: homemade nan bread with Indian spiced chicken and salad 
Meal 4: homemade cookie dough.. recipe on my feed! 
As you can see im not afraid of bread and happy to eat 4 slices a day 😋
I hope everyone’s ok after yesterday announcement! We’ve done it before we can do it again 😘
