bobblybear Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 We had salmon in a sweet chili sauce, with baby pearl potatoes, and fried cabbage and bacon. I've never had fried cabbage and bacon before, and it was divine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omelettes are very healthy, I'm sure. Much more that roasts . Hope you have plenty of chocolate to balance the healthiness of the omelette.

chaliepud Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Kay, you need to read this, I've never been a big chocolate lover, but when I tried to give up grains and sugar I of course then craved something sweet after dinner, thankfully I read an article like this soon after and just one or two squares of quality dark chocolate helps to satisfy the cravings, plus there are benefits to it too, in moderation of course. make sure you read to the end. My preference is for the Lindt 70%, I can manage a lttle of the 80% but I don't enjoy it as much, so I only eat that when I've bought the wrong one.. http://authoritynutrition.com/7-health-benefits-dark-chocolate/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I did do was buy one of those small Green & Black 70% dark chocolate bars .. and limit myself to two squares but Alan would always eat the rest in one go (only about four squares) and so there is never any for another day. If I get a big bar it would probably go the same way .. I'd have two squares and he'd woof the rest. It really is an addiction with him. I could buy some when he's away but I'd feel so guilty and disloyal .. like I've got another man or something .. to be eating chocolate without him I expect he eats plenty without me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nollaig Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I just had a Subway. I've no food in since I wasn't here all weekend and I may have no money left for food after going to London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nollaig Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Today I had a pizza. One of those sauce-stuffed crust ones. I didn't eat the whole thing, but I came close, and it sat in my stomach for 2.5 hours digesting and making me feel uncomfortable. I'm looking forward to NOT eating pizza again for quite some time.
