Low-carb diets support thread

Mercy

Hello lovely people!

(Mexican) Fudge is, apparently, the way to go. Do it peeps! tis tasty, filling and to your own specifications filling wise

Badger - well that's just blokes, innit? They bring home a deadly disease they're immune to and if you're ill it's unfortunate. You bring a deadly disease and they're not immune to it you are housemaid, driven insane :rotfl: Hope you feel better soon!

alias - love your posts, you some funny woman! Kinda sayin what I'd say :rotfl:

sweets - liquid will be included in the lunch, how did you guess? Also, YOU resisting wine all week? Well done girly! I seldom resist wine for a WHOLE WEEK! Yous an inspiration, hunnigirl!
As for the chicken drumsticks, I sprinkle em with worcester sauce and/or veg stock cube then roast for 40-50 mins, turning occasionally. Always taste great.

mazzers - Range is good, innit? What you get?

Hi to all others, you sound like a right up my street bunch of lovely, helpful, kind and considerate nutters! We shall all do well here :T :rotfl:

Be happy people, tis the weekend!

Hi Mercy, love the range, didnt spend much but had some napkin rings that look like huge diamond rings, sound tacky but are quite stylish.

Not sure who i think i'm entertaining mind.. but you never know (i live in hope)

Sweet, forgot to answer the chicken question, i usually just roast them for a quick snack, very boring :rolleyes:

I have gone over budget a bit this week, ( lge washing powder and cleaning bits) but intend to take it from next weeks, and see how i go

Get well soon badger xx

They sound lovely! Will have to fit that shop into my doings this weekend. I'm lucky in that I have one within 5 min walk. The walk is in a different direction than I normally take. That means that unless I remember I just do the same old same old and go elsewhere.

Have to say, my limitations on my internet spending for the last month have paid dividends! This month I have not been in the red at all (a whole month!) despite paying for flights and bus for visiting friends Am still to enjoy those trips but it's good to know it's done and paid for.

Over the last 3 weeks I've been doing a meal plan for the working week. This has given me a shopping list that works Then I bought it all at once. I do not need to shop every day! So I reckon I save at minimum £15 a trip not taken :rotfl:

Just been giong on Monday + Friday, or actually better this week, Monday only :j Need to top up tomorrow but that's the longest I've ever not gone to asda - 6 mins trot away - for the last 12 years :rotfl:

Imagine my glee! Tis showing in the bank and I don't throw as much food away anymore

RE: The Range

Forgot to say, they're so rubbish at keeping plants. If you go down there on a Monday night you can find stuff that was neglected over the weekend and is so v cheap.

Choose stuff that's perennial or very robust, like pansies. If it looks dead it probably is so mix and match the pots in the '6 pots in a sling for' and make sure you get 6 live plants for the reduced price The staff don't care, if they did they'd water the bugrs in the first place

Save money, create a garden!

Who loses :rotfl:

PS This was also true of the small B&Q which became the range. Maybe it's worth calling in a few of these places during the week, even if they have someone actually in charge of plants they will still often need to create space so will reduce stuff to make room for weekend shoppers.

Hmm, i think i've been going over my allowance for a couple of weeks

Not lost for a while, but my ketostix are ever so slightly pink (first square) so i thought i would still be losing

It's very disheartening
