Sounds good

oh thanks will have to try this. Any ideas to sub the bread crumbs?

 

[systema]

You need the bread to make it "stick" together. Only half HEX B and I only ate half of it for lunch or you could syn it.

 

[fatgottago]

Im gluten and wheat free due to an intolerance but I could use some of the gf bread I just made, it could work

Food for Monday

Mushroom pate with toast and salad

Cauliflower, broccoli and pinto beans with pasta and cheese sauce.

Above pasta with asparagus.

 

[Keldelacoe]

that pasta bake looks amazing!!!!!although I think I may have to give up on cheese all together after trying vegan cheese *vomit*

 

[fatgottago]

yep sis its a weird taste although my hubby likes it melted, and I prefer the soya cream cheese but its fattenig still lol, you know I cant wait to be slim and say I am a vegan, no excuse for a fat vegan hahahaha, but really I want to look like I practice healthy eating and food ethics and I want to be able to have olive oil and nuts and not feel guilty for the (healthy) fats

Told you how awful it was :giggle: Son left some in the fridge and he won't be back for 2 weeks but it will still be there when he gets back - anything else would have disappeared. It is the Pepperjack one with chillies in but even OH who will eat anything (and still weighs just over 10st) says it tastes like putty with chillies.

Did you go to class? How did ya get on?

 

[systema]

Hi - found a better timed class - put sons postcode in and found one which is as near for Thursday mornings at 9.30 so am going there.
Nearer to my Friday weigh day and think mornings are better than night classes. No excuses - getting sorted now. It is my "posh" pub lunch day today so will be fine - going to SW then out to lunch

 

[fatgottago]

yes I agree I wanted a morning class too but none near me all evening but I am happier alone on minimins lol

 

[systema]

Just got back from first SW class - when I got there I wondered if I was in the right place, thought I had gone into the local creche but within 10 mins it had all calmed down and the kids had gone - thank goodness.
The Consultant was brilliant - there were 3 newbies and she sat down at a table with us and explained the whole lot to us be it EE - when I told her I was veggie she took some time out to explain it to me but said next meet she will explain the red and green to the 3 of us. There were about 20 people who stayed for Body Magic and it was interesting - lots of chat and ideas from everyone, no favourites and everybody chatted to everyone else.
Don't know who provides the raffle as nothing was said about bringing anything - nice things in there - Slimmer of the week was a fresh (and it was fresh) fruit basket.
So all in all going back next week - wish I had put a weight in my pocket so I would have a good result first week.:giggle:
