Yep we eat fish. And I have been enjoying currys so we've been getting the bags of frozen bass and having a few of them.
Flavours I've been really liking actually are heat and tang: lime pickle, jalapenos etc.
I've just looked at the SW 7 day veggie menu, I've got some ideas. I'm only going to meal plan 2 days and then see what I need to use up.
well done for reversing your diabetes! That's great news!:j:j0 -

Sunflower, I hope you pick up soon.
H, Scrimps, pleased to meet you. :wave:
As log as they’re plain, I’ll fight you for those crisps, beanie!
I made ice cream tonight too, bubbs – we’re having visitors tomorrow, so It won’t all be mine (although I have to confess to licking the paddle – just to check it was ok, you understand).
Well footie was rubbish today – snatched a draw after being 2-0 up! Felt like a defeat. Back at the bottom of the table. Grrr! :mad::mad:Sewing 88/COLOR]Woollies 19Card s 91Reading 37/400 -

Catching up with post reading as I've not had time all week.
Chrisv can you put me down as a holiday for this week for the chart. Thanks0 -
Hi all and welcome newbies :A
Well I finally got to see Dr about X-ray results and meds, nowt wrong with my hip so that’s not causing the pain. We both think it’s nerve pain from my back condition so it’s back for another MRI! As for meds, increased those which resulted in my Saturday spent out cold on the sofa
. Also have blood test booked for coeliac test, can’t wait so I can stop eating gluten. Will see if that makes a difference to my weight, speaking of which WI STS.
Am trying to do an online course on autism, it’s taking longer than it should as I keep falling asleep :rotfl:
Hope everyone has a good weekend and thank you Chris for the chart and SOW :T:AIts not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T

You get a draw and call that rubbish. :eek: I'll show you real rubbish!:D
Welcome scrimps. It's perfectly possible to follow the plan without going to a group although new books will be out soon and if you can afford it you might like to go to one meeting to get the books and the introductory talk. I think we've all got a tale to tell about what made us fat originally but the plan gives a good structure for healthy eating. We have the 105 syns a week for treats but it's never enough so you have to prioritise. If hot chocolate is your thing then that's fine. The Aldi Choceur is 1 syn per level teaspoon. A bit more expensive but many of the Options sachets are 1.5 or 2 syns.
I'm not a vegetarian but I enjoy some veggie meals. Batch cooking some veggie chilli for the freezer makes a useful HM ready meal. Places like Iceland have good bags of frozen fish. They may be all shapes and sizes but the cost per kg is more like half what they charge in the major supermarkets.
Our meal last night was fairly mediocre so least said the better. It's always a risk at this time of the year. So moving on.:)
Today's EE plan:
B: NAS grapefruit, HEB overnight oats with red berries, HEA milk for drinks
L: Probably an omelette or JP haven't decided
beef in (fake) red wine, SW roast potatoes, loads of Speed veg
Syns: 1 for cornflour, weekend wine:D0
