LIVE AND LET DIET!

I'm currently on a diet with the Missus. It ain't easy and I'm dreaming about food. My favourite foods!

Here are my top ten fave foods - just a small fraction of what I'm dreaming about! Nothing healthy!

  1. Pancakes
  2. Nutella
  3. Prawn puree, in fact any Indian food
  4. Pancakes, crispy bacon and syrup
  5. Hot sugar doughnuts
  6. Beef Olive, Dumplings, braised red cabbage and gravy
  7. Steamed Chinese pork dumplings, in fact any Chinese food
  8. Golden Cup chocolate and virtually any type of milk chocolate
  9. Chocolate covered flapjack
  10. KFC

and I'd love to know which are yours readers!

  1. Been on a diet since October 2023 (16 months).
    Lost 1 and a 1/2 stone in 4 months and have kept almost all of it off, so far.
    Mostly missing bread, butter, cheese and pies/pastries (although the diet allows for lapses, you just have to go back on plan as soon as you can).

    1. Well done on your achievement Mish, that great. 16 months, that's real commitment! You've cut lots of staples out. Blimey. We eat twice a day, so basically we've cut out lunch. I'm hoping we lapse tomorrow in York when we have tea at the German Donner Kebab joint! I cant wait!

  3. Eggs Benedict with salmon is actually called Eggs Royale Paul.

    Thanks for that - I had not heard of Eggs Royale before. Menus in New Zealand list Eggs Benedict, usually with a choice of bacon or salmon. I do not recall having seen any with Eggs Royale.
