Nandos

[sweet-like-coco]

Hi! I just had a few questions as I am still anewbie and I got scared into thinking I can never go out on another forum- which I do not plan to go back to!

Can you have for example half a chicken with their bastes? I was afraid they would be loaded with sugar. When I say bastes I mean lemon and herb, medium etc.

Also I am confused as to how much cheese we are allowed. I was only having 4oz a day. Is this wrong? I would love to have more as I love cheese- and especially halloumi since I am from Cyprus! grilled haloumi is the best.

Also, are we allowed fetta cheese? That is really nice in a greek salad!

We're brilliant - we talk about everything and has anyone noticed that by about page 3 of a post we're totally off topic? I love this forum - everyone is really cheerful and helpful. We don't get many cravings threads (thanks goodness) and if anyone has a question you'll get about 5 answers - and Jim's always in there! (Thanks Jim - I think most of us have been put on track by you at some point!)

So, yay for us! long may it last!

I agree, yay for all your fab Atkinsers, I've only been on this forum 3 days, but already feel part of the family Everyone's very welcoming & helpful and it doesn't feel clickey (unlike some forums I've been on)

Mwah, mwah to you all

p.s. - I love the smilies too :flirt2:

 

[Bad Jar]

air kisses back atcha!

I've only been back on a couple of weeks but yeah, it was like i'd not been away! I should have come straight back on when i first strayed but i felt ashamed at my lack of self control.

Still, onward and downward!

Anyway - Nando's! Half a chicken, either mild or medium (depends on my mood). Don't bother with the ratatouille, small portion for the money, I'd say it's not worth it - plus, more onion and pepper than courgette so not really atkins friendly methinks.

 

[JanBow]

Have just mentioned Nando's to hubby and we'll have to see where our nearest one is, his ears definitely pricked up at the thought of being able to go out & eat on a diet!

 

[Bad Jar]

Nomnomnomnom...

 

[Jim]

[LVLLM]
