yes i think it is coz when you are on diets you are only allowed something ridiculous like a spoonful at a time

doormat · 18/09/2005 13:44

yes it is unfortunately

I dont think so, unless of cause if you add the fat from your roast, but it is salty and although salt is not fattening it does hold on to the fat in your body making it harder to burn off.

Personally, I think gravy is the ambrosia of the Gods, so I don't care how fattening it is.

Instant gravy isn't really fattening, but I think home made is.

it depends how you make it - if you are just using bisto gravy granules then no

I am just using bisto so would that be ok then? start my new healthy eating plan today and having grilled pork with veg etc and really want some gravy on it for my tea!

A little thing i picked up in weight watchers, was the gravy in the glass jars is less fattening than the gravy in the cardboards packaging, I cannot remember the logic behind this however that is supposed to be the case.

mind you there were people there who were worringly obssessed wi cal content of everything.

A little bit of what you fancy is ok i think personally
