Good thanks and you? I just made a sw Moroccan chicken thing in the slow cook and it was blooming good! How's your day been? Been good?x

 

[Cheekypasterfield]

Dinner sounds yummy!

My day has been good, I refused a McD's so feeling saintly (even though I really wanted a Big Mac lol)

Was planning on giving it one more week at home before going back to class, which to be honest I don't really want to do, hate all the clapping. I was doing well on the plan, but my dad fell ill and was in hospital for 6 weeks, and I would be at the hospital from 12 till 8 so everything went out the window. He has been home now for nearly two weeks and I haven't been able to get back on track. So I'm going to restart it all again today. Sit down do a menu up for the week, and hopefully stick to it.

It becomes hard doesnt it when life throws cr*p in the way, I hope your dad is on the mend. I know what you mean about the clapping! And you havd to pay for that! Hopefully with support on here you can get back into it without having to go! Or maybe go for a week or two till your in the swing of it? So whats on the menu today?

 

[Rachael_B]

I just keep reminding myself that I wouldn't normally be having a McD on Thursday so why make this odd occasion take me off plan x

 

[Rachael_B]

We had this last night and it was VERY good! And syn free! You should try it,

It’s very simple, just chuck everything in slow cooker and hope for the best, 5/6 hours on high:

3 Chicken breasts – cut up (we used 3 because that’s what we had)
2 x onions

1 tablespoon garlic
1 tablespoon
Cumin
A handful or two of fresh coriander
2 sweet potatoes
3 carrots
1 chicken stock cube
100ml of water
