    Yeah good idea Dizzy, I might go to the dry cleaners as they do alterations there, but I might wait until a week before I go though!

    Mind you the tags are still on it so I could offload it on ebay if I could be bothered lol

    :rotfl: at the smiley :D

    Gooooood afternoon all

    Hello to the newbies :wave:
    Well done on the losses :j
    and thankyou for all the lovely congratulations:D

    Dizzy -If you really don't like fish then I wouldn't have it... there are lots of other lovely things you can have. I have a rule that if I don't really enjoy something then Im NOT EATING IT.
    Have you tried making fishcakes? really simple and a good way of camouflaging the fish ;)

    don't know if you will like it but I do my cheese sauce:-
    • 120ml semi -warmed in a pan(part of heA -or 3 syns)
    • 2tsp cornflour (2syns)-let down with a drop of the milk when cold
    • dollop english mustard
    • 42g low fat cheddar (heA) (the cathederal city is lovely)
    I made this the other day and it was gorgeous -and only 2syns if you use your healthy Extra A -hope it helps...I had it on fish last week, Im using it for cauli/macaroni cheese bake this week :j-ooohh and leave out the cheese and add parsley instead :p


    Well after much pondering I have finally settled on my red meal plan for today... It was going to be one of those days -you know the ones where "hmmm do I want this, ooh shall I have that instead?" -I think the change in the weather is to blame -after several seriously hot weeks we have cooled down -and have rain :j -so I don't fancy COLD stuff.... so -todays meal plan is :-
    • 28g porridge oats (B)
    • 250ml semi (A)
    • banana
    • mixed berries
    • salmon fillet
    • 1/4tsp oil (0.5) -to roast:-
    • 198g steamed potatoes (B)
    • carrots
    • onions
    • red pepper
    • melon
    • 2 peaches
    • pork schnitzel:-
    • pork fillet
    • 1 egg
    • dried bread crumbs (5) -will alter this when I know how many I use ;)
    • 1/4tsp oil -to roast:-
    • carrots
    • onions
    • red/yellow pepper
    • with green beans
    • cauliflower
    • 250ml semi (A)
    • 1tsp camp (0.5)
    • 1 fibre plus (5.5)
    Righty ho -that wil be my A+Bs and 11.5syns used .... I will alter the syns when I see how many bread crumbs I use -could be more could be less -who knows :p

    We are nipping shopping tonight -need water, veg, fruit at least-ohhh and Im in desperate need of a chicken dinner-so a nice fresh chick chick is required :p. Whilst we are out we are going to stop off and see if I can find a couple of pairs of 3/4 jeans -my others fell down last time I wore them :D .... and a couple of tops... its hubbies anniversary pressie to me -well I couldn't think of anything else ;)
    Right I will get off for now..
    Have a lovely day everyone and keep going...
    -6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.5
