I never believed their cals for the bun? I always gave 5pp for me burger bun and then 4-5 for meat. Would Elaine eat a bowl of fries herself then lol?? My sister would only share a bowl, she'd never eat a whole one. I got the tender basket last time too - it's fairly small but you aren't a big eater by the sounds of it Mmm garlic mayo is YUM in there.

To be honest I blame Eddies milkshakes for half me weight gain. I was always having them and never realised how mental they were in calories. Over a thousand calories!!! Insane!

You're missing out... the brownie and brownie sundae is AMAZING. Mmm... *drools* They used to do a banana split and it was really nice too. You aren't a sweet tooth much though are ya? I find it really tough to not have desserts. I probs sound so greedy don't I? xx

Hmm... i'll check it again.. Only thing is they can't publish the cals as being less or more than they are.. There are laws in place against that.. (I know this sounds like i'm making excuses)
OMG is a skinny Minnie but my God does she eat!! Our usual would be share tenders.. share mushrooms.. n she'd hav cheese & bacon fries... Or she'll have a tenders basket with an extra cheese sauce and something...

No you don't sound greedy at all.. I used to LOVE their banana split... Was raging when they got rid of that
I have my moments but no, not really a deserts person.. I'd rather hav a starter n main than hav a main n dessert..

I don't think I would EVER be able to go to a restaurant and not order a dessert to be honest

Ha ha ha.. I just don't really have a sweet tooth.. My problem is with savoury.. BIGTIME... Tho saying that some days I'd kill for something sweet

 

[azwethinkweiz]

Its ER secret sauce Its delish Its kinda like a tangy marie rose sauce (would you agree Sarah???)
Ah I'll have a side order of fries n hav half.. Or they do sweet potato fries.. Might try them.. Dont have the NV's for them tho... hmmm...

I've heard it has mustard in it!! But it's a secret sssh It's pretty much a delicious type of mayo so that's why it's high PP heehee

Yeah it just seems so unreal that their bun is only 3pp, I always presumed burger buns were 4 or 5. But I was only pointing them at 5 because I was kinda OVER-pointing to make sure I didn't use way over my weeklies lol!! Doesn't even make sense hahaha!!

Those banana splits were unreal. Really yummy. The knickerbocker glory is nice too - I think that's the healthiest dessert now (it was the bloody banana split). Now I really want an Eddie Rockets HAHA!!!

I like savoury and sweet ..eek lol

 

[azwethinkweiz]

Dunno what the hell burger buns I was having? Must've been those big seeded ones I was thinking of that are 5pp. That's good news about 3-4pp then! Burger time lol!! xx

And yeah I would totally go with ya's except Dundrum is so bloody awkward to get to from here - haven't even been there in 2 years I don't think!! There's an Eddies in Drogheda down the road thank god... mmm.... that was the cause of a lot of my weight gain. That Eddies moved in and my weight went up up up and I got mega greedy for greasy food and creamy drinks x

Hope yr well petal. Any house news? X

Hi love. Hope you feeling better. I suffer from IBS also so reading the last few comments have been a real help! enjoy your eddies! Only been to it once, wasn't a huge fan, funnily it really bugged me that they didn't have vinegar!! It was in town aswell, and it seems the ones in town are never as nice as dundrum or blanch! It's the same with TGIs!

Chin up on the weight "hovering". I'm the exact same! I think I need to cut out alllll alcohol and choc. So in essence my life ha! Xxd

One of the girls a week r so ago mentioned about a low GI diet.. So will look inito that as well.. Duno if that's the same thing as i've done no research as yet

That's what I'm doing, just taking me a little time to get used to but it seems to really work for people
