My food is boring at the moment - will have to read my rose Elliott book over the weekend

Can I ask where you get your Linda McCartney sausages from? And are they syn free? Could really do with some veggie sausages that are lower than Quorn. I know 1 syn isn't much, but still

If you mean the red onion and rosemary ones - they're free and very tasty! x

Asda do and some branches of Tesco I think? They also showed up in my mum's local Co-op last week - of all places!

 

[cheekychinchilla]

I'll have to stop by at Asda after work one day next week. We don't have a co-op Will have a look when I'm next in Tesco. I will find them

Hi guys

I struggle getting the LM red onion sausage as my local (huge) asda only stock normal. My nearest asda that does stock them is derby, spondon although I was at sails buries, Arnold, Nottingham last week and found some. Last time I checked the website it was only asda and Sainsbury.


Yes, it is the low carb book so will make a start over the weekend and share some recipes. The only issue s that it is high fat as well - similar to Atkins - so might need tweaking.

Ophelia - I think we must be not to far away from each other hehe! I get mine from Spondon Asda. Never seen them in either of the big Sajnsburys in Derby but my mum got some from one of the tiny local Co-ops apparently! She swears they were the right ones ...

You can swim with your dogs at the hydrotherapy place? That is amazing. I would LOVE to be able to swim with my dogs. Always jealous of seeing people swimming with their dogs when I'm on holiday.xx

Baaaaaad day with food - cant evn bring myself o say it...

Woke up very poorly last night. Too much food or something bad I ate? Difficult to tell. Going to have to take a steady today. Not got a particularly hectic day booked - 1 hour teaching session plus a meeting afterwards. Also going to TX Maxx this morning to buy a new bag for work.
