Getting my body back - vegetarian EE

Risotto looks lush! I had a spice mix up this week (cayenne pepper instead of paprika - ouch!) I think you could have done much worse at the party, two small sarnies and a few crisps is pretty good compared to all the other treats probably on offer!

I think Cayenne pepper was probably hotter than my risotto - did you manage to eat it? I resisted the cakes but most of the other food was meat based so easy to resist

I have a lot in this week too as I buy a lot when it is reduced and then put it in the freezer, it all has the prices on though so I can work out what we spend this week Aww lovely ages, I bet they keep you busy

that sounds very organised, I think you are like me and love a challenge sounds like you will be on track this week.
Keep me very busy - they don't really stop especially when the 3 yr old keeps waking up the baby!!

In mind of being more creative with snacks. Mid-morning snack (just about) for me and my boy. Syns on the plate would be 1 for the two sausages and I think 2 for the olives. Cheese can be a hea will see what he lets me eat.

Size 10? That's brilliant!! Make up is worth spending a lot on - look at it this way, it'll still fit even when you reach target

I make the tomato sauce and put the frozen meatballs in for about 10 mins. I then layer it up with the lasagna, broken up more than I would a normal lasagna. a bit of mozzarella between layers and grated cheese on top for about 30 mins in the oven - it feels very naughty eating it and syn free x
