Me too, Jen! Me too!
 
Well done on the losses ! I lost 1.7kg woop woop and went to ikea for lunch and had a smoked salmon salad
am very pleased I didnt cave and have meatballs. We are all off to see Madagascar live in a minute
and I've packed myself two malteser mini bunnies which are
three syns each so I'm not tempted to eat the kids treats !
Hope you all had a good Friday x
 
What we all having for tea?

How many syns in 6 milk chocolate buttons?! No idea, might just say 4 to cover myself.

I've bought a gammon joint, what's the 5 spice recipe? Do you reckon I can do it in the slow cooker? Got it for £4.99 in aldi, doing it for lunches in the week. Same price as packet ham in asda!

Ok, found recipe but it's using gammon steaks cut up not a whole joint. Could I just add the normal ingredients and cook as a whole joint in the oven/slow cooker??

I would if I were you :) It's supposed to be a kind of glaze, so maybe spoon the juice over ever 20 mins or so?
 
So do you reckon oven not slow cooker then? Is this your first weekend of no alcohol?! :p

I did it in a casserole with lid in the oven this week, was delish :) guess it depends how much time you have - the oven will be quicker to heat up..
Enjoy :)
 
I think oven, slow cooker might just make it fall apart a bit which if you're wanting it for ham all week might not be ideal? I usually wrap it in foil, then last 30 mins take it off and glaze with mustard and honey xx

I would say oven - you'd get more of a glaze on it! Slow cooker always increases the liquid etc, so you might get a nicer sauce if that's what you're after!

It is :( I'm drinking just diet coke tonight, which kind of tricks my mind into thinking it's got rum in it! But how bad is this - whenever I've been drinking lots of rum and diet coke, it always takes me ages to realise why diet coke tastes SO weird on it's own afterwards - because it has no alcohol in it! :p

Not got any trips out planned or anything so it'll be easy to stick to :) I don't often drink at home just casually very often! x
 
I think I'm giving up booze for lent too, I don't really drink now anyway (amazing for someone who used to have nearly a bottle of wine a night!) although now I've said it all I can think about it the gin and tonics i have in!!

Making squash, mushroom and spinach curry, chickpea Dahl and veg pilau with Indian salad for tea :) yum! Xx
 
Well done on sts Charl :)xx

I've been out all avo at a friends yard with the kids and horses :) although a gorgeous day I think I nearly lost the toes on my right foot!
Oh got Army this weekend so feeling utterly uninspired food wise, its normally quite nice to make extra effort when he's home at weekends.. had lush chicken salad for lunch and have shoved bns chips in the oven in the absence of inspiration. Might just have cheesy chips- but got 1.5 hex b's and 1.5 hexa's left ..! Hmm!
 
Can anyone with SYNS online please find me asda tinned Bombay potatoes, pleases pleases.. I wanna know if I can have them with my tea :)

Give up drink!! Don`t think I can manage that!:D


I have cut down a lot, before going back on sw I was drinking at least a bottle of wine a night. Can go 3 or 4 days without now, which is really good for me! ( and my bank balance!)

I`ve got a ready mixed drink in the fridge calling to me!! It`s Stones ginger punch 5.4% alcohol. It`s really nice but can`t get it anywhere except Morrisons.

Good luck with going teetotal if you decide to go ahead with it!! You`re braver than I am!! :)
 
Finally inspired by the fridge!!
