[Miss Tickle]

Just realised I've only had 250mls water, a mug of tea and a mug of coffe for my liquids and it nearly 5.30p.m . Must get drinking. Todays food has been:
B- 2 tbspns baked beans
L: 2 melba toasts, small tin tuna ( went in, came back out again)
T: Pork chop, all visible fat removed- about 2oz.
S: Pick n Mix cheese portion
Will try to have something else later as this is a bit low. I'm a big girl you know- and need some food to keep me going lol !!

Sadly the pasta is a no no today it got sort of stuck gone in now but not pushing my luck with any more will freeze the leftovers for another time. Off to blitz the left over sauce into a soup.
May have the banana & custard I put to one side when I did the families pudding earlier or a smooth yoghurt depending how my pouch feels later. Otherwise that can be breakfast tomorrow. Lol

didn't do too good last night. Couldn't sleep - mind going mad. Came back down and had a midnight snack of new potatoes and a spoon of sweetcorn *sigh*

 

[Neeta]

B:Quaker Oat Bran Crisp + 0% fat natural yogurt + sweetner
Tea with milk and sweetner
1 glass water

5 quorn fishless fingers + sweetcorn + yogurt "dressing"

6 rich tea biscuits

Can I ask what are the fishless fingers like? I am alergic to most fish othere than tinned tuna and tinned salmon. I wouldn't eat them as a regular thing but just thought that I might fancy them when I am able to eat normal textures. can anyone suggest when I could have some mushy peas. I am craving something really tasty with vinegar and mint sause. Have had some lamb and veg soup blitzed up with mint sauce in it, but it's not quite right.

Hi Neeta - I quite like them - have been veggie for years so these new Quorn tuna and salmon thingies are lovely - the fishless fingers don't taste exactly now I remember but they are pretty close

Worth a try for you I would think.

Why not have pea and mint soup! Sainsbury do a really nice fresh one in the chiller cabinets.
Or Big soup do a lamb and mint, not great but gives a taste.

lol - Had the lamb and veg Big Soup the other day, not really very tasty blitzed up (I think that food looses something when it is blitzed - roll on the next stage)

Last night I had half a tin of mushy peas - blitzed to be like thick pea soup with vinegar and mint sauce on - that did the trick!! SCRUMMY.

Hubby asked if I thought I might be preggers just cause I was wanting mint sauce all the time .

 

[Emza]

Hi Neeta,

I had brown sauce with everything that I blitzed up, I think it just gives it more flavour lol

Good luck on your journey xx
