Evening all!:)
I'm really struggling at the moment and am considering giving the 790 plan a go!
What sort of things can you eat and how much of it? i.e if you can eat chicken does that equal a chicken breast or less? Can you add herbs or spices?
I've misplaced my booklet!:eek:
Seeing my CDC 2moro so want to have a good think b4 i see her!

250g/8oz cottage cheese (5% fat)
325g/11oz reduced fat cottage cheese (less than 2% fat)
175g/6oz chicken or turkey breast without fat/skin
275g/10oz white fish as before..
260g canned tuna in water (drained)
