Monday 12th May

Evening diary. Have managed to be good (so far). I was hoping to make potato cakes for dinner with the accidental mash that I made yesterday. Don't know what I did wrong but they wouldn't hold together as cakes and turned out as a pan of pulp. I fried it to death and it turned out like bubble and squeak but really wanted neat little patties, nicely browned, maybe crisp on the outside. Any ideas what went wrong? I added an egg to bind it but the mixture was very wet.

anyhow, food today......

breakfast: branflakes, berries, skimmed milk

lunch: JP, salad, boiled egg, mayo (2 syns)

dinner: bubble and squeak, beans and 2 tesco healthy living sausages (1syn I think)

desert: banana, toffee Greek ML, half a flake crumbled over (4 syns)

snacks: Apple, banana

Great day mate. You're doing really well at the moment. No idea about the potato cakes - I was going to suggest an egg but saw you tried that!!

 

[bubble77]

Im not sure either Lindsey i never mask my potato if im making potato cakes i usually grate a boiled potato but it mustnt be mush. Maybe it was just too soft.
You still saved the day by having bubble

Great day for you. Well done. Xxx

Are you doing green days now?

 

[Lindsey-g]

Tuesday is always a green day for me. And sometimes Friday too as that is my egg and chips night.

 

[pippalata]

Are you veggie?

 

[Lindsey-g]

No, love my meat, but try to vary the days. I read on here it's supposed to help, but not doing me much good?

 

[pippalata]

It's just confusing me. Think I need to stick to EE for a little while.

 

[Lindsey-g]

I prefer EE, but will have green once or twice a week, just because it works out with what I'm cooking for the family. Will be EE tomorrow as we are having chilli.

 

[bubble77]

Morning another good day planned? Arent we doing well 2 days at 100%!
Do you think we will manage a week?

Have a nice day. X

Hiya Linds

No confession on your diary then? I dont blame you!! What are we like? We can start again tomorrow hopefully. x

 

[Lindsey-g]

Hi bubble, been busy searching clubcard website as I have £20 clubcard tokens that expire on 31st May. I was going to fess up, honest.

food today........

breakfast: branflakes berries, skimmed milk

lunch: vegetable goulash with new pots, broccoli and sweetcorn. Not quite as syn free as I thought! Upon questioning the cook at school, I was informed it has cream in it! Arghhhhh. It was nice though and will attempt to make a SW version of it at some point.

This is is where it goes wrong..........

was as starving and still out shopping with kids at 6.15. Bought a bag of "surprise" chocolates from poundland, when they opened them, kids didn't like the nutty/caramel ones so I ate them(hangs head in shame) I reckon at least 24 syns.

dinner: 2 tesco healthy living sausages, mash, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, fry lighted onions and gravy 3 syns) and a really small glass of wine, (4syns).

Weigh in tomorrow, will it be 11.3 or 11.4? Am pretty sure it won't be anything else!

 

[bubble77]

Oh no - wi tomorrow? hopefully its not in the wrong direction, good luck mate. xxx
