Charls Pregnancy photograhic EE Diary and beyond!

[jamjar15]

hope you like it, can be a bit of a trial and error when first making it!!

Does it really take 20 mins to cook?? I I'm sure that's what it said on the packet. I must admit I like quick breakfasts, especially in the week when I'm in work for 8am x

 

[jamjar15]

I've just realised you're from Cheshire??? Me too!! Whereabouts???? And how's hubby getting on with the healthy eating??? My OH is doing his best too, he's giving up smoking at the mo with the help of an electronic cigarette and doesn't want to pile the pounds on

yeah it takes about 20 mins all in all, put it in the pan with not to much water, let it boil up and then simmer on a real low heat until all the water has soaked in, then i add a splash of milk over it and let that bubble up and so it goes more creamier looking, then i add about a tablespoon of muller lite to it to give it some flavour!!!

yeah the hubs is doing well he has lost four lbs this week and has been to the gym 3 times, he seems pretty motivated we'll see how long it lasts!!
just got to keep up the nice meals so that he doesnt get bored!!
your hubs is doing well giving up smoking at the same time as losing weight, hope he gets on ok

I suppose I could start cooking it as soon as I came downstairs, before I see to the dogs, make son's lunch box up etc. Then it might be ready when I am. Will have to give it a go

Well done to your hubby!! There's a gym right next door to where my OH works, it's full of orange muscly blokes, don't quite think my OH would fit in lol. He's been smoke free for 5 days so far and says he feels so much healthier already!

I'm in ellesmere port.......don't think I could live in Warrington, far too close to IKEA! Lol. I'd Spend a fortune!!!! Hehe x

 

[charleybabes]

i love ikea !!.. i dont go enough i think !!.

i dont think id have the confidence to go the gym myself pretty amazed that he goes actually as hes no orange muscly dude either, think he sticks his music on and keeps his head down!!

 

[jamjar15]

A couple of my friends that I used to work with tried to get me to go to the gym with them, not my thing I'm afraid. Then they suggested Zumba...haha I don't think so, I have 0% co-ordination! Lol

Aww bless him, I was going to say I hope he's better soon but seems he is already lol. Kids are great at sudden recoveries, usually when you turn up at the out of doctors surgery and they spot all the toys in the corner! Little monkeys!!
Enjoy your snuggly day.....I'm off to work boo hoo!!!
