Daz FINALLY has a food diary

Nooooo, leave them alone, a chip is a chip, nothing apart from salt and vinegar after cooking.
I failed Mother, gave in and bought a health fryer (that has to be a mismatch, surely?)
But, i went against the usual (not like me, at all
) and got something totally different. Cheaper (which made it slightly easier) and fits in with my kitchen colours (haha, worse than a woman, i know). Shall let you know what its like once its here and i have tested it out.

I am certain it will be a good purchase, as long as i get the usage. If i have spent so much money on something just to cook chips in it then i am not going to be happy. I will see what i can find online as far as recipes for such machines and go from there. The general idea is that pretty much anything can be cooked in it, lets hope so. I have a halogen oven and i just don't rate it, for a start it dries meat out and thats not good, but these things have a turntable/rotating basket, so im hoping that small difference whill create vastly better results. I suppose i could sell the halogen, deep fat fryer, and George Foreman grill to pay for this thing. lol.

Dont abort it Daz - face the music and move on to a better week you will feel better for it.
I hope giving in to that posh looking machine was worth it hehe I want ratings on the recipes you make in it and let me know if its as good as an actifry - I may still put one on my xmas list shhhh

Blew out this week, think a little bit of depression has set in again. Feeling better today though. But that doesn't reverse the food and drink ive had.
Will let you know about the fryer, its the same as an actifry but half the price. Won't be here until next week though.
Early night for me, speak tomorrow.
Just updated the sheets, apologies for the delay. Not really on top of things the past few days, but will be more on it tomorrow, touch wood.
Am adapting the sheet and that has helped towards the delay, namely the May one, but stupid me for trying to do complex formulas when my mind isn't on it, lol.
And im not dodging the 3 lb gain this week, i shall declare it tomorrow, actually happy with that, considering ive had a week that indulged with home brew beer, jus rol pastry, mash made with milk, chunky kit kat (only one mind, God knows how being that i love them and there is more than one here), a box of Lindor truffle chocolates, more home brew, more pie (jus rol pastry), more mash. You get the gist. Very effective blow out, and only 3 lb gain. Lets hope that gets me focused next week.

As you say 3lb isn't bad considering, how do you feel now, do you feel like the blowout has done you good or not?
Not sure yet, will let you know when im sure ive got through it. Funny thing how slight bouts of depression affect the mind. I think its the boredom of not being able to go out to work thats doing it to be honest. But hey ho, still smiling.
And the new gadget has arrived this morning.

I 'like' the new gadget has arrived, but I know what you mean, I woke up this morning wondering when it will all end this SW lark, it's a lifetime thing & sometimes, like now, I feel it's all, not too much but just hard work. I want to eat chocolate, I want to eat white sweet rolls from the Asian shop & I want to eat Asian sweets NOW!!!
I have said right from the start that if i ever get to my intended target then i will be happy to fluctuate half a stone either way (clearly will be mostly up, lol) so that i can indulge myself. As i have proven so far, a little of what we like is not going to kill us. That 3 lb will be gone easily enough next week, i just wish i were already at target before i indulged. oooops.I 'like' the new gadget has arrived, but I know what you mean, I woke up this morning wondering when it will all end this SW lark, it's a lifetime thing & sometimes, like now, I feel it's all, not too much but just hard work.

Afternoon Daz - yayyyyy to the gadget arriving!! My new gadget has arrived today too ......... A new fridge freezer grrrrrrrr son went to look for something for tea last night and everything was going soft in the freezer, I had just done my shopping the night before and it was chocka!!!!! Had to empty it and take it all to sisters to put in her spare freezer no wonder im stressed lol .
On the gain ..... It will be off for next week but at least you know why it happened. I hope your feeling better today?

Food would have been ok for 24 hours, as log as the door stayed shut. But at least you are sorted now. Glad you didn't lose the food, that on top of the cost of a new FF would have been hard to take. lol.
Gadget is still in its box. I will get to look at it shortly, just not feeling the motivation. Far easier sitting on my butt for the day. Will possibly be something with chips for tea/dinner though:8855:
Not worried about the weight to be honest, i know ive had the blow out, and it will be back to normal pretty much from now.
Why are you not in the May challenge, did you say something about that before? My head is like a sieve of late.
