NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS BEING SLIM FEELS

[SuSylvester]

old thread too big.

WelCOME all to the no mercy school of short term dieting.
everyone is doing their own thing wiht amazing results.

remember think when you contemplate hoggery

" eating it wont make me happy"
and vivsualise that perfeectly fitting waistband or long slim legs in the summer.

I like the low cal meals. They get you used to portion size initially. Will not be using after the couple i have left as i am now regulated in to HOG portions and MAKE YOU HAPPY portions.

The multigrain corn thins are 22 cals each. A ryvita is 45.

Sweetcorn is dead starchy - full of sugars. Which is why it's so nice!

Am having butternut squash and other roast veg this evening - can never understand why butternut squash registers as nul points when it's so sweet. Not that I'mm arguing.

Aw, didn't mean to sound like I was having a go.

I've been down that road so many times myself.

I get it.

Sorry, geordieminx.

best lo cal meals are interesting veg
( eg steamed beans andasparagus , or flash fried mini cherry toms with garlic and coriander or roasted veg)
with a nice small bit of meat bbq or poached in foil int eh oven
or a nice bit of fish shallow fried wiht salad ( masses of it) or a tomato sauce ( almost no cals) with pasta for a hog session

i like those individual frozen chickn breasts that you can get out of the freexer in teh morning and are ready to cook when you get home. I buy all fish at watirsoe so it comes in those foil things so i get those out at 8am and cook that night.

Butternut squash mainly water - all squashes are.

Fill yer boots.

did oyu say

"MAKE YOU HAPPY portions"

someone said BNS with bacon was a great meal

oyu need FLAVOURINGS - eg pesto ( tiny bit on fish in foil in oven) or harissa ( smeared on tiny lamb steaks on bbq

and HERBS( on fish, on cherry toms)

Its cool, I didnt think you were having a go - you are right, a nice piece of salmon with a cajun crust and some roasted veg would be 100% nicer than scabby cauli cheese which is the size of a fag packet, and watery as hell....

I will make a better shopping list this week.

Infact, I have some salmon in freezer that I ewill defrost tomorrow.

Best not tell you that tomorrow night's tea is spam fritters and tinned tomatoes. How common retro?

the mere word fritter has me drooling
here

Nah, think SPAM.

That'll cure you.

Kept on track today after yesterday's indulgence.

Also did a lot of digging, that must burn off the calories.

Arghhh! Not fair posting pictures of ice cream, Su!

oops, geordieminx, didn't read your post properly.

Not gunning for you, honest

Just popped in to see how we all were. So we're anorexic, are we?

Saying that - every time I look in the mirror I DO see a fat person...

Still at work. I'm going to be RAVENOUS when I get home at about 9pm. But I only have salad in my fridge - all the crisps and snacks in the cupboards have been scoffed were chucked out at the beginning of the diet two and a bit weeks ago.

I literally have to eat salad or my arm.

I may go mad and put an extra dollop of cottage cheese on top. Because, you know, I'm just a wild thing when it comes to salad.

Yummy yummy yummy custard, thanks Cyb. Now off behind the bike sheds to be a bad gal.

cauli cheese inhaled.

Actch it wasnt too bad - inspired by thread, added a little bit of grated cheese to the top, and had a pack of steam fresh veg, covered the lot in black pepper and it was fine.

Humph - you do a lot of digging - what are you planting?

I listened to a Paul McKenna CD today, it was just like this thread actually.

Corn cob went black in the micro

Made an oriental stylee salad instead. Spinach toms, cucumber and spring onions. Forgot to wash spinach >

Lots of cottage cheese on top! Or have you got a can of tuna in the cupboard? Or maybe a can of chickpeas or summat. That will liven it up.

I just cooked this and after a massive bowl (extraordinarily eaten without bread and butter ) and I am totally full. T'was really really nice. No chilli flakes round here though - bunged in a fresh red chilli mmmmmm

So long as I go to bed soon, another successful day [smug]

mm that looks good
BUY RAISINS GUYS

Can we do chocolate raisins?

lol at undertone seeing a fat person.
I'm eating frozen maltesers, 187 cals and a diet coke, 1.5 cals.

I hate raisins, bleurgh. Are dried apricots a suitable alternative?

I am going to bed soon too. 3 flights of stairs is too many to undertake for a snack.

don't eat dried fruit, eat real fruit, much better for you.
