    I don't know if its been posted before but sticking with the diet drinks theme I make rice pudding with diet American cream soda. Just cook the pudding rice in it and serve - no need to add anything else.

    Its nice and sweet and slightly vanilla ish.

    L chicken salad, balsamic frylight
    D meatballs and pasta with hea cheese :drool:

    HI folks

    Just a quickie from me - I'm up to my eyeballs in suitcases & ironing at the moment after just coming home from doggie sitting and need to get my act together ready for the Hols on Sunday morn. I shall be back later however to read back what I've missed ;)

    Just wanted to let you all know that I managed to get a 'loan' BAHA ear from the hospital while mine goes off for repair (phew what a relief that was) it was touch and go whether it would happen though :o as they only had 2 in stock....one was BLACK, and my hair is blonde so it would look ridiculous :o and the other was a blonde colour but for a left sided fixing (mine is on the right) anyway Ive got the latter....it just means that the sound isn't as 'spot on' as the microphone is located in a different place....but its not that noticable to be honest and I'm just soooooooo grateful to still have my hearing :A

    Second bit of good news.... I weighed in at group yesterday witha 4lb loss :j:j:j:j

    I was absolutely amazed as I don't normally get massive losses, I generally just chip away at it each week with a pound (or 2 if I'm really really lucky:p)


    so I'm now down to exactly 10 stone and I've lost 3 stone 12.5

    .........mmmmm I wonder how much I will put back on durung my 3 weeks in cuba:eek::D (remember I did 11lb in 4 weeks in Mexico last Xmas :rotfl::rotfl:) Well I've paid for it so I'm flipping well going to enjoy it!! then I'l jump back on the Tank when I get back ;)

    Some amazingly fab losses on here today, it makes brilliant reading. And well done too on 'the ear' dizzy. :T:T

    My EE menu for today:

    B: NAS squash, baked beans, HEB toast, HEA milk for teas
    L: bubble& squeak, pickled beetroot
    D: chicken pie, SW chips, peas, mushrooms, tomatoes
    Syns: weekend wine:j and it's a real, shop-bought pie (treat for DH) so probably loads of syns in there
    Snacks: I could have toast & Marmite but probably won't bother after pastry etc
