That's a fantastic loss Hope you enjoyed the bacon sandwich!

 

[bulldogdaisy]

Thanks all. Just had a struggle to find something to finish my points off on today...trouble with having salad and veg, I suppose. Lovely 27pp round of turkey sandwiches for supper.

Yea all trial and error with points but the sandwiches do sound yummy!

 

[bulldogdaisy]

Yay on the loss and yum to the bacon sandwich :0)

 

[bolero982]

Thanks all. I'm having a meat-free gumbo for tea that I've picked up in Tesco, but haven't pointed it yet.

In which case, i've done it for ya - 8pp

Better point too high than too low =P

bacon sammiches are ace... a worthy spend of 10pp if you ask me =3

That's the fellow, thanks. Haven't got around to checking yet on eSource to see if it's already in the database thingy...I forgot when I was putting my lunch in.

Oh definately, Han. Best 10pp I've ever spent, and most filling breakfast I've had in a while. I'm usually hungry by about 11, but this lasted me out until we closed at 1.

What did you have for dinner? X


I always weigh my cereal etc sometimes its a few grams as the difference between points! I shouldn't but I do push the boundaries!

 

[bolero982]

What did you have for dinner? X

Haven't thought that far ahead yet, to be honest. Shall see what takes my fancy when I get home from work.

Bit disappointed, as I went and had a bag of crisps from the vending machine earlier. Just tracked them, and 7pp. So not worth it.

 

[bolero982]

Do you measure your cereal out of interest?

Yep. Depends on the cereal, but it's usually a 30g portion I'm having.

Think today was the last of the party puffs. Shall see what Tesco has when I go shopping tomorrow though. Fingers crossed. lolol

 

[Jaly]

Hmm, buy a variety box and your portions are already sorted - and you won't get bored! Sorry to hear the crisps weren't worth it but you'll remember that next time

 

[hannata]

good to hear =P

lol i always used to do that, get stuff thinking there cant be more than x points and getting a v nasty shock lol.. not worth it at all but at least you've pointed it and you're still on track =)

God I do that all the time!! I always say that's by worth the points! Bit like my vice versas yesterday!

Nom to vice versas ;0)

 

[bolero982]

The problem was that I didn't realise it was a 50g bag until after it came out of the vending machine at work, and after I'd eaten it...and then it was too late. Ah well.

Had the most delicious dinner tonight, that I enjoyed more than even the most exquisite cordon bleu meal around. Beans on toast!
