[LVLLM]

how do you cook your pork belly? do you get the slices?

 

[Jim]

I fry mine Vicky, like chops and stuff.

 

[ladyfelsham]

Yes hun I get the slices, I pop them on an oven tray, cover with foil and bake for 30 mins or thereabouts, then smear with Dijon and put on a bed of lettuce or spinach (which sometimes has a squirt of mayo on it)

 

[LVLLM]

Thanks ive been frying mine too like Jim said but what a mess they make!

S: Sweets! - half bar of dark choc + a little bit of Thorntons toffee
A: 3/4 bottle of wine

What's the deal with Thorntons diabetic choc? I had a look at the back of the bag of diabetic toffee and it said 55g-ish of carbs. Is there a particular type of diabetic choc you guys munch on?

Hi Jim.

I fought it Christmas day and caved in boxing day! I think I then had 2.5 days back on it, went mad because the sticks weren't turning and was off it until Sunday. I'm back on the straight and narrow now though

It's strange because I know I can do this now and I know i'm going to get there. Time just doesn't seem to go fast enough. That probably sounds stupid but i've been obese for about 12 years. I just want to feel what normality feels like!

Thanks for asking How did you do?

Nah doesn't sound stupid. When I first started I was the same -nothing was going to stop me! You'll get there, just might take an extra couple of days! (not much in the scheme of things). Imagine how mint you'll look next Christmas.

I didn't do the best - put on 4-5lb but not too bothered. New year new start and all that!
