quite proud of myself seen as mum and dad had pizza and chips and I had my baked potato with cottage cheese! Xxx
 
Food for today:

B: 2 x toast (b) with spread (3 syns)
L: Left over lasagne again BUT i might have noodles instead mix it up a bit.
T: Going to attempt lisa's smash based pizza will have with cheese (a) and maybe some ham (b) and pile the veggies on!

snacks: banana, mullerlight and maybe alpen lights (b)

Hello - no my Granola is either a healthy extra B or 5 syns for 25g.

You asked for the carbonara recipe this serves 2 with leftovers for your lunch the next day:
150g pasta
1 small onion diced
2 cloves garlic crushed
1 pepper sliced
1/4 green cabbage thinly sliced
1 teaspoon oregano (or other dried herbs and chilli if you like a bit of spice)
2 eggs
1/2 pot quark

1. Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling water
2. In a large frying pan frylight the onion for 3 minutes until soft
3. Add the other veggies and garlic to the onions and fry on a medium heat until soft. Add the herbs and chilli (if you are using it) and let them cook in. Add salt and pepper.
4. In a bowl beat the eggs and quark together until well mixed - season with salt and plenty of pepper
5. When cooked, drain the pasta (saving some of the pasta cooking water and place on one side)
6. Turn off the heat and tip the veggies into the pan with the cooked pasta and mix well.
7. Off the heat, stir in the eggs and quark mixture into the pasta and veggies - the residual heat from the pasta will heat the sauce through. Add a little of the hot pasta cooking water to loosen the sauce.
8. SCOFF whilst trying to be ladylike.

N.B You can use any veggies you have in for this - mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, red onion instead of white, red cabbage instead of green etc. You can also add lean bacon or ham for free if you are doing an Extra Easy Day.

He's just on my case again ALL the time:mad: I make a start with the diet....and its like nothing I do is good enough! now hes banging on that I wont lose weight unless I exercise (he is so insensitive given that I am still struggling with the balance issues :sigh:) He always has to be right about everything & I just feel like telling him to shove this holiday up his aris & go on his own! :mad: I KNEW it was a mistake booking.

I love spuds/rice pasta too hun......trouble is if I have them too often it seems to slow my losses :(

I have that problem too, took me a year to realise it was the green days that caused my losses to slow, considering i'm not the fastest loser they made it worse. Last few weeks i've stuck to Red, with the odd EE when i want carbs

Hehe you do make me chuckle! I should be very careful if I were him!!!!

Im not suprised you were in two minds and they can ALL be complete tools when they want to be! xxxxxx
 
Oh I hate any 'comments'. Dunc doesn't (wouldn't dare!!) but my nan does. She will offer me cakes/biscuits etc then when I have something sw ok but 'nice' she will say 'can you have that on your diet'? Grrrrrrrrrr.

Dizzy- hols will be good - do some hip grinding to sexy salsa with a lovely Cuban man - that'll show him!
