dextersmum said:Awww thanks, we're both well!! I'm back in work and Coco is back to being her mad self
I've been quite good on SW and only have 1 lb to go to get my club 10 so that is my goal for Sunday. Was very, very naughty yesterday - went well over board stuffing myself silly but back to being healthy again and feeling much better. Boy did I regret overdoing things yesterday, so not worth it.
Have missed you and glad you're back xx
Ps made Pete's egg fried rice with chicken.......was soooo good, better than takeaway......this will be another regular.
Ooh will have to have a look at that recipe then, is it under his whole recipe tab that he made?
I'm attempting the spinach and mushroom cannelloni this week, you ever made it?
And as for one day, it's only one day. It wasn't a week like mine
you will defo get your club 10 this week xx

sounds yum.......wish my OH could cook chips
The egg fried rice with chicken is on Pete's own page as well as the general post picture thread I think - really good. I haven't made the cannelloni recipe so let me know how it tastes. I've been a bit boring today and had huge ham salad with JP - yum though, also loads of fruit today - apple banana and two grapefruits !!
Really, really aiming for that club 10 xx

I'm glad someone tried it and has opinion on it
I will report back when munched....probably Thursday now. Ah crap! Mothers birthday then. Do you reckon it can be made up in the morning and survive in the fridge until the evening? Without turning to slop or anything?? xx

EE ?
Breakfast
Banana
2 x mikado (i know, its awful really, but I just wanted to taste what the Daim ones were like!!) 1 Syn
Lunch
Eat's Spicy Chicken Noodles. I worked this out on the syns calculator as 8 for EE. Its a 300g portion and the details are as follows :
Spicy Chicken Noodles (less than 5 % fat) found on eat.co.uk - did post a table of details but it screwed up my post and looked messy
Was really nice warmed up and had a good chilli kick - which I love as you most probably know.
Cherry Alpen light bar 1/2 HexB
Apple and sultana Alpen light bar 1/2 HexB
Special K minis 5 syns
Dinner
?? who knows yet! picking up my new bike at 6 so depends when I get home.
Decided on curry. Veg overload!
Chicken and quorn pieces, red and green pepper, onion, chopped tomatoes, lots of spices and chilli. Served with 1 scoop of rice, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower and green beans.
1 x mini naan 8 syns. Left most of rice and some spinach as just far too much.
Over on syns at 22, but usually down on most days so not bothered.
HexA x errr, ah crap 0, HexB x 1
Fluid 2 x fruit tea, 1 x 500 ml diet coke, 1 large water, 1 large diet pepsi
Exercise lots of walking round London today, from Whitehall to ministry of defence, down to st James' park and over to Victoria. 2.5 mile bike ride

Cheers for that - I'll print that into my mental notes so I don't forget the syn value!
So many recipes I want to try - noted that the Spanish chicken gets a tick. Finally making the cannelloni today so will report back tonight.
Well done on being on plan too, keep feeling smug
I feel like I'm losing the weight I surely gained on my week off so hopefully be down in the 14's soon. Will squeal when I see a 14 on the scales!! Good luck for the morning xxx
