Hi Guys,
Just been reading some older threads re. 790 and just wanted to clarify the salad/veg allowance. My yellow book specifies 3 tablespoons of veg from allowed list - how do you measure that if it's not a dumb question!!!
I was thinking I would have to chop up my veg very small to fit it onto my measuring spoon? Does anyone else do this or am I just worrying too much about portion control LOL!! ??
Just don't want to mess up!
LOL!!! Thanks guys.
How sad am i??? Chopped up my watercress and cucumber into tiny little bits to measure it out last night - OH was like WTF are you doing!!! LOL!!! I did laugh!!
Anyways I shall be sensible with my portions now and guess what is reasonable - and love the teaplate idea. My little 3 tbls of veg + chicken looked very sad indeed on a mahoosive dinner plate
Oh well!!!
I used to chp up the cucumber and celery and mix it in with cottage cheese, add a bit of cracked pepper and paprika and sit it on a bed of watercress. That was my favourite and I still have it at lunchtimes now occasionally.
Lol I can imagine what it looked like on a dinner plate!!!
