    Wetherspoons menu nutritional info

    Hi all, I had a chat with someone on here recently about Wetherspoons pubs serving 5 bean chili which is free on a green day (if you leave the tortilla chips),and it got me thinking what fat content was in the meal? Anyway I asked Wetherspoons and they sent me this link I thought I'd share...

    here I come! Found a SW butcher!

    they tasted great thanks for asking! Tasted very "meaty" with out fatty taste at all and very filling, highly recommended! It was crying out for a portion of baked beans to go with it though :( looking forward to the garlic sausages I also bought and the 1/2 syn burgers tonight!

    here I come! Found a SW butcher!

    haha I know! I doubt he does mail order tbh, but I did say to him I bet you're like a local celebrity aren't you?! He said "It's like a job in itsself put it that way"!!! So far put them under the grill and they look very dry!!! (must be as there's no fat)

    thanks for all the great ideas! I LOVE the sound of asda chick pea dhal with savoury rice mild curry!! I will have to go to Asda specifically, isn't it odd how other brands of chick pea dhal aren't syn free? Don't get it, maybe Asda's is fat free? anyway yes I'll probably try to cook more than...

    Green Days Quick & easy snacks and lunchtime meals

    thanks for that :) I could do a Quorn sausage sandwich I suppose and use the bread as a healthy extra, it'd take a bit of prep the night before is the only thing, and I don't get a great deal of chance for stuff like that. Sounds nice though, I tried the cumberland ones yesterday with a bit of...

    How to get out of "diet mode"?

    I'm the same and I have rarely even dieted in the old fashioned sense of the word. What I'd say is make sure you at LEAST have your Healthy Extras, but you don't have to have syns, it'll make sure you follow SW for longer if you allow yourself 5-15 per day though :) hth

It's a weird one as you may see from my stats over there <-- that I have actually reached the "goal" that I set myself when I joined this site, but I am still very disappointed at my stomach and breasts after 3 years of lager and takeaways, so I...

    Thanks Fern, I notice you've got loads of badges so congrats on your loss too. I really rate SW I don't understand why anyone does any other diet. I don't understand how it works (probably never will) but love getting strange looks from people in the canteen and envious looks from the WW...
