Quick question

[panda-cd]

Hey! Tonight will be my first meal on Cwp as I'm on step two!
I wanted to ask if I can have 40g or one veg and 40g of another or does it need to be 80g of one?
And am I slowed to dry fry the veg and chicken?
If not could you tell me how to cook them please <3 thanks xx

Yeah you can mix the vegetables, but not the protein. And you're not allowed any oil, not even 1 calorie spray according to my CDC so dry frying is OK I think but I think they prefer you to steam xx

You can mix the protein as it does in the step 2 recipes in the Cambridge cookbook. I don't use the frylight either - this diet is destroying my pans!

 

[chubbybunny87]

My book specifically says not to mix the proteins in step 2.

Thanks for the comments <3! Just had diner and I have chicken with mushroom and celery with some basmati vinegar ! Was delish xx

That's odd, all the Cambridge recipes in the cookbook mixes protein. Step 2 is 810 isn't it? Which date book do you have?

 

[panda-cd]

My CDC said the meals are different then the separate stuff. Like one of the meals has noodles in it but you can't eat noodles on its own x if that makes sense lol xx

I don't have the book with me atm so I can't check, but I started on Sunday so I'm assuming it's a recent edition? I did check yesterday because I would have been miffed if I could mix and haven't been, and it does say 'one portion of protein' and my CDC said the same as well.

I've just done my 810 wk & mixed mine throughout & my cdc said it was fine. Ah well, doesn't matter, still had a good loss. Good luck on your first week!

I've been on 810 for many weeks as I had reached bmi 25. I have had a chicken and veg omelette a number of times using 1 egg and half amount of chicken. I would not consider this off plan at all. I am 5 lbs away from goal so I don't think I've done too bad by it - whether or not it is officially 'allowed'. Personally, I think it's rather low on the spectrum of being 'off plan' as compared to eating chocolate for example. All the best whatever you decide to do.
