    I've been letting shred slide this weekend too (as you can imagine) but will start again tonight. No point being stressed AND fat :o

    Have just had a very unimaginative low-carb lunch of cucumber and cheese....must try harder to think of exciting lunches. Horseradish burgers tonight with avocado and stilton on top so looking forward to that :)

    Feel for you Tete - those soups are tiny! :eek:

    Sorry Shrimpy that did make me smile! I'm sure it would do the same to me as I have put on about the same amount!

    Well done on all the sorting/organising Tete and on maxing out your 2012/2013 ISA!

    I didn't start 30DS yesterday either Tete, I was just coming on here to confess! I did finally manage to weigh myself though - getting rid of my scales was a BAD idea. I hadn't been on the Wii fit thing for ages and I have gained 1 stone 2 lbs in that time. In fact, when I stepped on the board the little icon thingy popped up and congratulated me as it thought I was holding a baby :o

    I once made the mistake of going on there after letting DD (5) play on it. Turns out it had recalculated my weight thinking DD was me. Next time I stepped on there I put on about 8stone :eek:

    Argh Beccie - I read that as Horse Burgers at first - see how stuff creeps into your subconscious?! Your cucumber and cheese sounds delicious though I must say (must be hungry after my soup, although in fairness it was tastier and more filling than a normal cupasoup).

    Edit - Star, I bet it gave DD some big congrats on losing that amount though!!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Hadn't thought of that - the word horse probably shouldn't be in the same sentence as burger at the moment really!

    You mix horseradish and onion in with the mince when you make the burgers - is lovely :D

    Ooh I don't know if my delicate palette could cope with them, they sound hot! Are you able to make the burgers stick together? I have a fab recipe for burgers with baked beans, onion and cheese in but they always fall apart and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong :(

    Ooo, they sound lovely. We use egg and that works well. Think you can use breadcrumbs in the mince mix and coat in flour too if you're not low-carbing? :)

    Ooh thanks - a full egg or just the yolk/white? Beaten? Tempted to make some at the weekend now!

    A whole egg, beaten. Also, this will sound gross, but make sure the mince is really mushed together when you shape it into the burgers. That also helps it hold together :)
