What are you keeping them for, susie? Surely, you're not planning to wear them ever again?
I know, I don't ever want to fit in them again, I am just scared to get rid of them in case. I love this way of eating, and I don't think I will ever go back to my old ways, but decided to keep them for a year, then a charity shop they shall go
May I pick everyone's brains about SW chips/wedges?May I pick everyone's brains about SW chips/wedges? /QUOTE]
I chop them up into nice thick chips and put them in the microwave for ten mins, they are pretty soft after that and then into a hot oven for 5-10mins to brown.First weigh in after my wedding and 2 week all inclusive honeymoon in Mexico - gained 24lbs:cool:
Congratulations Mr & Mrs Woot, you both look stunning! Wow 24lbs gain that must have been some honeymoon :rotfl: You will easily shift that tho!We had actually left the house to go to the group for the first time. And then the OH decided he'd rather not go and just do it alone and as I just wanted to do it online originally we decided that one of us would open an online account (for all the bits and pieces) and the other can put their WI each week on a spreadsheet.0 -

May I pick everyone's brains about SW chips/wedges?
Mine can be a bit hit and miss but I think that maybe because oven temperature varies depending on what else I'm cooking at the same time.
Does everyone parboil and for how long? What about with sweet potatoes? I read somewhere about microwaving a whole potato and then cutting it into wedges. Does anyone do that?
All advice welcome:) I'm off to start dinner otherwise I'll be having a chips and egg snack!
SW chips I pour Boiling water on them then bring back to the boil....boil for 4 min. drain & shake well in the pan to rough the edges up. spray & cook on 200 to 220 for 20 to 30 mins turning once.
SW wedges Ive found work best by microwaving 1st for about 6 min til they just start to cook, then cut up into wedges. cook as you would chips.0 -
Tesco Light Choices Cranberry & Blackcurrant Cereal Bars - bit confused with these. On the syn calculator it says they are 3.5 syns but on the "Latest Healthy Extras" page they are listed there as 1 bar. Does this mean that 1 bar can be counted as a HE? It doesn't say if it's A or B or anything so not sure whether I'm right or not...Just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you are a mistake.0
