    Wooooohooo I thought it was just me! I don't like Christmas pud/cake/turkey/carrots/bread sauce (never tried it actually)/mince pies - what a grumbly old stooge I am. My fave Xmas lunches have been when I've got the Indian restaurant chaps to get their mum or wife to cook me an authentic dish, then I freeze it until Christmas day. Obviously can't do that this SW year, so it might be some skinned duck or something. :p

    You've never tried bread sauce? You haven't lived, lol. You could have all the rest of the lunch as long as I get to have plenty of bread sauce, yum!

    We've not had turkey for years cos it doesn't matter how it's done I always think it's dry. We have a joint of beef and a gammon - it makes nicer sandwiches for supper too :)
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!

    Oh that's right, blame me :rotfl::rotfl:

    I didn't tell you to have it 3 times a day, but since you are doing, have you thought about hiring yourself out to power the country instead of us bothering with those turbines :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    well I have stuck to the menu posted earlier, there will have been some syns in the sausage casserole as I used gravy granules to thicken it (but not many!!) and I haven't had any syns anywhere else today, a good day really!! also managed a 30min walk as well!!
    Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last

    Been good today after weekend off. Had inset today so only went in for the afternoon [waste of time really]. Back to the grindstone tomorrow :o.

    Food today:
    B - weetabix milk [a] coffee
    L - mugshot, noodles, melon, satsuma, activia
    T - liver, onions, mash, kale, carrots, peas, oxo
    Snacks - satsuma, melon, pineapple, onken, meringue [2.5]
    Syns - 2.5 :D

    Have made more cc loaf for pack up tomorrow, I find lunches hard to think up when I'm on playground duty as have to eat on the run. Don't really want bread but thats what I always end up with :(.

    Well done losers, hugs to those that need them & good luck to all xx :A

    Also, HATE the clocks going back, had to meet son off bus in the pitch black [forgot my torch], theres no street lights between my house [light right outside] and the bus stop and not much of a path either. Had my high viz on though.
    Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T
    Keep the Faith All

    Heartbroken 12.12.13 :cry:
  • I hate 'em too Takeiteazy, dark when I leave home, dark when I arrive home. I must remember to look out the timer-plugs, at least I can set a lamp to be on by the time I get home so it's not so dreary. Even dragging our wheelie bins to the end of the drive/lane/potholed path in winter is horrible. My key ring has a little LED in the end so if I am really stuck I have have a faint beam to guide me :o:o:o.

    In case anyone's interested, I've tried out couscous again. After the couscous fritters I haven't been able to bring myself to have any (I know everyone else liked 'em but I obviously did something wrong :cool: ). Anyhoooo, I tipped some couscous into my lunchbox (ooooh vicar), a teaspoon of Vecon, and some hot water, and left it. Very tasty under my slowcooked pork chops and rataouille.
    :jThat's 2 stone 9 lbs gone forever:j

    thank you Slimming World!
