Ive got sausages tomorrow but im struggling for what to have with them, i really want them with mash and beans but then thats no superfree, any ideas please? Thanks.

 

[Loopeylou]

Sausage and mash is a firm fav in my house, I don't like beans so easier for me to have a big plate of veg and some onion gravy. Why not have a bowl of veg filled soup before then a smaller dinner?
Can I ask how you did rice quiche, I'm intrigued

Food diary looks well balanced xx

Rice quiche- i cooked a packet of savoury rice and then put it in bottom of a flan dish, i blended 3 eggs and a tub of quark and poured over the rice. Placed in medium oven for about 30 mins till golden brown, really lovely hope you like it xx

Fantastic loss well done xx
I had a 1 lb loss, I know it's a loss but thought it would be more after STS last week. Frustrated as in last month I'm back to what I was!
Hey ho, I'll keep plodding on. Going food shopping tomorrow, list and dinners organised so another good week will surely warrant a 2lb loss I hope lol

I started in Nov but have done it before .... Too many diets, typical yo-yo dieter!! Trying to break the vicious cycle.
I'm still nearly 3 stone lighter though so I'm proud of that but always want more

Hope you have a fab weekend xx

3 stone is amazing! I must admit (dare i say it) i feel different this time, im the same ive done every diet going and aleays fail but i feel more determined and im enjoying it! Well done on your loss and fingwrs crossed for next week i feel like ive cheated a bit although i havent. I had a chinese last night beef in black bean with green pepper and rice and i had 5 chips lol!! Ive guessed at about 12 syns?? And i had lager, i dont feel like im slimming lol! Hope you have a nice weekend xx

 

[Loopeylou]

I think your Chinese estimation is about right, I too always err on side of caution and syn more which I think you've done too....your right it doesn't feel like a diet.
Hope you have a lovely day, I've finished all the cleaning etc so off to Tesco now x
