  • Quite why you'd buy buffalo then mince it into spag bol I'm not sure! ITB, you and I will never argue over food... :P

    More bizarrely is it's from one of the local farms :shock:

    I've cycled everywhere around these parts and never seen a buffalo or a gruffalo for that matter, do they hide?

    Is the local butcher actually this man ....?

    Special stuff...

    Was out at Smiths of Smithfield this evening. Fillet of Bream with gnocchi and a caper vinaigrette. Lovely food, atmosphere a bit "canteeny" though.

    Can't say I was that impressed when I went. However...

    Today: well I'm on my 5 on, 2 off diet: 5 days (Mon-Fri) being good and 2 days (Sat-Sun) eating whatever the hell I want.

    So, as today's a Wednesday, I will be mostly not eating cr*p.

    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    missed breakfast so made up for it with two lunches from abokado :lol:

    Teriyaki Chicken Stir Fry (360kcal, 3g sat fat, 10g total fat)
    Thai Chicken Crystal Rolls (190kcal, 1g sat fat, 13g total fat)

    an expensive but tasty and filling lunch and better still I can track my intake as the nutritional info is on the shelves under the products (I love it when they do that).

    What is it with porridge? every time I eat it 30 mins later i'm staving hungry, full on tummy rumbling.

    Is it something to do with the oats slow release carbs?

    Try a handful of raisins or something else sweet mixed in with it, so you get a quick fix to start, then the slow-release stuff comes in later. Or alternatively follow the porridge with 3 or 4 slices of toast (pref. thick cut malted, none of this white sliced rubbish) with jam or honey. Yum.

    Ah, that might be why I don't get hunger pangs straight away then.
    Porridge with raisins and half a sliced banana (and cinnamon, but that's just showing off), eat the other half while waiting for microwave, bit of sugar in too.
