Saturday Fitness Fix #3

The holiday is looming! The bikini is staring at me. The gym is a calling!

I've had a couple of chub chub weeks which has been slightly crap on the old love handles, but this week has been a turn around one, packed full of gym time and scrummy juices!

My sugar cravings were a-tingling the other night for something creamy and refreshing. It had been one of those steamy hot days in London so I wasn't in the mood for anything that involved an oven! So I decided to make some banana frozen yogurt to curb my cravings and stash in the freezer for a rainy day.

No fancy machine needed for this one, no siree, (mainly because I'd forgotten to freeze the machine bowl.) So, machine or no machine, this is fool proof and extremely simple to make.
