hi carla,i looked into the jacket potato pp,and im completely lost! lol. some threads say 4,others say 8,so i have absolubtly no idea. . xx

I might not be much help on this...but the way that I understand it potato is 2 points per 100g before cooking. As an average medium jacket potato weighs about 400g grams before they're cooked they are pointed at around 8 points. If you weigh the potato after baking all the water has cooked out of them and they are lighter, many people make the mistake of weighing them then and then pointing them lower than they are! If I'm eating a potato out & its already cooked I usually guesstimate at around 8-10 points depending on size of potato.

New potatoes are much easier as they are the same weight before and after cooking so their points don't change!

Hope that helps! x x

Had an absolutely awful night last night with indigestion/wind....

I remember dreaming about food and i woke a few times with pains and feeling sick. Very strange night.

Took some rennies during the night which eased it slightly but still bad when i woke up. Felt like i hadnt eaten forever...?!

Once I was up I had a banana and coffee, and rushed ojt the house for playgroup.

Got back at half 11 and had 2 poachedeggs on toast to try and relieve this pain.

Hope the eggs do the trick
