Tuesday 21st Feb Green
Breakfast: Coffee & fruit 1 HEXA
Lunch: Veg chilli 0.5 syns for chocolate
Tea: Spicy root & lentil stew
Snacks: Carrots, baby corn, 4 mini Babybel 1 HEXA & 1 HEXB, Pear, Muller with cherry underlay 1.5 syns
And for that I win 2.5lb off, which is not really 2.5lb as I put 1 on last week
Must get my act together, Im averaging less than a pound a week since Xmas :whoopass: Too many nights off and excuses to celebrate. So gotta be strictly On Plan for a bit. Still 7st 10.5lb off so far, so my goal for now is 3.5lb to get that big shiny Numéro Huit... Eeee another trip to Mancland coming up though aggghhhhhh :sigh:

Have to agree, vaseline flavoured snails, or aubergine as some folk call 'em spoil an otherwise good meal.
You seem to like curry, I wonder if you have tried M D H chicken curry masala as a heady spice blend ? I was so impressed with it after a south indian friend recommended I try it. Another thing she does it to grind fresh coconut with green chillies it really is lovely added with the meat before simmering.

Vaseline flavoured snails!
You are *SO RIGHT*! :8855:Nope not tried that curry mix, tbh if Im making an actual real curry I just make my own up outta the individual spices. I do use curry powder but only for quick stuff like spicing up a quick noodle thang or whatever. So thats a nice one is it? Hmmmm... Ill stick it in my list for when I do a big spice shop, ta
Ooh coconut, Im making a venison curry with coconut this week om nom nommmmmm :drool:
icklerockchick
slow but steady!
Slimy snails indeed I've tried several times to like aubergines but the texture is just horrible bleh! Also disappointed I want them to be really purple and they are always a horrible colour instead x

Oh my goodness Erm! I tried Celeriac chips last night, thy are flipping amazing!!! I HATE clery with a passion and was really put off by the celery smell (and that the Celeriac juice made my hands itch), but chucked on some Schwartz Spicy season all and they were lovely!
Thank YOU! My 5 a day challenge to myself is going to be so much easier (I don't really like raw veg).
Carrot chips are nice too without the spice.

Starting over
Morning Erm... If you are looking to get more superfree you could try 'Cauli Rice' It is so yum and goes really well with curries etc in place of real rice.. All you do is grate a few florets on a cheese grater into a microwaveable dish, add an eggcup full of water and some salt and cover with clingfilm. Pop a hole in the middle and cook on high for 4 mins or so. Fluff it up and serve... If you syn a little bit of butter to mix in it is delish........

Yeah Ive heard about that, I really must give it a go, I do get a bit miffed at trying to fit superfree into curries and stuff
Although adding spinach to the rice worked really well in that kofta I did last night! Ill give the cauli thing a go soon though, ta dirtydancing
