Being the doer that I am (and hopefully you are now too after reading this), today is also an ode to getting things done, or started at least! One of my goals for 2012 is to put on a few kay –gees if you know what I mean. I’ve always been a small framed person, but I know that a bit more mass would do me a world of good. And today is day 1 of that journey!
This morning I had a BioSignature assessment with Daine from Clean Health. What really attracted me to the crew at Clean Health was the way they approach training and nutrition. They build you up from the inside out, and that’s what I wanted. Daine and I went through all the assessments, chatted about my goals, and the changes I needed to start implementing. I took in a LOT of information. I mean I thought I knew some stuff about exercise and nutrition, but really I don’t know much at all compared to these guys. And that’s cool, I’m eager to learn while I watch my muscles grow.
I left feeling excited about what lay ahead, but also slightly apprehensive. My lack of self-belief was rearing its ugly head. I think the apprehension just comes from fear of the unknown or unfamiliar. But I’m trusting the process 100%. Doing whatever it takes because I really want to reach my goal.
I have to make a few changes, especially nutrition wise. And seeing as there is no time like the present, I started with lunch!
First item of business: goodbye gluten! It’s been real.
And by that I mean real painful. So many a tummy ache you have caused. I will not miss you. It’s time to think outside the bun.
I opted for this beautiful piece of ocean trout that caught my eye at the fish shop. I roasted it in the oven with some fresh herbs and spices and it turned out sensational! So I thought I’d share it with you lovely people.

Mmmm I just started eating fish again and I’ve never had trout before!! This looks AMAZING and a lot like salmon, so I think I’d enjoy it!!
YUM!!!
xxoo
Hey Kris, you could probably make this recipe with salmon too! They have a similar flavour I think.
I think you might have just made my husbands day! He is gluten free, and also misses out on meat due to me being the cook. I do make him a treat occasionally as I dont believe on forcing my diet on him – this will be on the menu for tonight.
I hope your hubby enjoys it! let me know how it turns out
Hi! the blog looks great!
How did you find the Biosignature stuff? Are you going to have ongoing training with the guys?
I had it done before Christmas and I too found the whole experience very interesting. Especially when I was diagnosed as being a “fat bas***d”. All tongue in cheek… None the less looking forward to ongoing training with him
Best wishes

The biosignature stuff was pretty cool, and I can see how it can be super helpful to get your body fat percent down. But I’m not overly concerned with numbers or anything at the moment so probably will just keep up my own training. A lot of useful tips though and am now including fish oil in my diet! Let me know how your experience and training goes!
Seems yummy… I can never resist seafood
I’m definitely trying this out soon 
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
