This is such a good idea! Gonna do it in the next week or soRe pasta, have a look at some of the lentil or pea based ones, high in protein and fibre but you’re still getting your pasta fix. I am going to make pasta this week with pea fusilli and a can of pre-made ratatouille which is so good for you but a really quick meal as well.
So recipe is;I feel you, carby snacks are my downfall, I could demolish a share bag of crisps a day easily! I had a couple of days like that in my first week, but since then I’ve tried to amend my usual go to recipes so I’m still eating the food I enjoy, guilt free.

Haha I get what you mean! I don’t put any fruit in mine, just on top when I serve it up. I’ve added strawberry skyr yoghurt so it has a nicer taste and more protein.
Scones for breakfast though.. sounds like a dreamwhat kind of scones do you have?
True, thanks for the kick up the butt comment. I would like to lose my apron belly as it makes me feel so unconfidentRemember that it's not just about the way you look - losing weight will also really really impact your health. And surely it would be better to be a healthy weight even with a slight belly than not at all! Skin sagging varies majorly from person to person and some people don't get it at all.
Don't mean to sound mean, trying to keep you motivated!
i wish I had your willpower! The scales and I have an up and down (literally haha) relationship
Omfg this sounds incredibleSo recipe is;
50g porridge oats (30 cal)
1 tsp Splenda (2 cals)
1 small egg (54 cals)
30 mls coconut milk (8 cals)
20g nutella (106 cals)
Method is; pop into a small dish/ramekin whatever you have (needs to be oven proof)
pop porridge oats, sweetener, and egg into dish and mix through, then add coconut milk and mix again.
Pop a little well in centre, and spoon in your 20g of nutella, and sort of spoon the sides up over the blob of nutella to cover.
Put into oven at 170 for 30-35 mins
And you're done!
You can make a few batches and when they're cooled, put them into the fridge and take one out each morning and just reheat in micro for 30 secs and the nutella goes all gooey. filling and delicious and only 200 calsthey'll last in fridge for about 4 days so you can get nearly a week of brekkies out of them pre made I bought little white ramekins in tesco, 2 per pack for like €1.90and perfect size
I love to add a splash of almond milk to nutella, heat it up in the microwave and pour it over strawberries and a chopped up bananaOmfg this sounds incrediblethanks for sharing lovely!
On a related note, how small is a serving of NutellaI was horrified when I first weighed out a teaspoon of it, but it goes quite far when melted. And since it’s nut based.. it’s basically a health food right?
omg I know, one serving is 15g, that's hardly anything and it's like 87 cals or something! But I found a way to get 20g of it into the brekkie oats and my oh my it does not disappoint, but I do love a bit of sweetness! It goes so gooey in the centre, amazingOmfg this sounds incrediblethanks for sharing lovely!

I have a tablespoon (not weighed out but probably worth itomg I know, one serving is 15g, that's hardly anything and it's like 87 cals or something! But I found a way to get 20g of it into the brekkie oats and my oh my it does not disappoint, but I do love a bit of sweetness! It goes so gooey in the centre, amazingI make it for my other half too but he always asks me to add in some extra splenda as he likes his oats quite sweet, so I generally add in 2 extra tsps in his, still only works out at 204 cals!
Oooo you’ll have to let us know what they’re like! I’m intrigued xJust ordered some lodough pizza bases! Only 39 calories for the base and they’re not too expensive so if I like them I’ll be very happy to have Friday night pizzas back in my life without only being able to eat halflooks like it can be used for quiche or wraps and things too so looking forward to trying them!
I will do!! I saw someone using them who has a weightloss tiktok account and they looked pretty good. Just hope it doesn’t taste of cardboardOooo you’ll have to let us know what they’re like! I’m intrigued x

really? I bought the tesco ones, that's what it says on side of pack ?I really hate to have to say this but 50g of porridge oats is around 187 calories, not 30. Really really sorry
Which Tesco oats are you using?really? I bought the tesco ones, that's what it says on side of pack ?
I don’t know about the Tesco ones but Quakers Oats are about 187 and I Googled oats in general just to be sure and it was saying around the same. Maybe the Tesco ones are a different kind of oats? I don’t know but oats are quite dense so I would be surprised if 50g in oats is that low in calories. But would be very happy to be wrong!really?

Just to let you know my experience of lodough - low carb so helpful on keto/low carb diets and dieting in general. Taste and texture was off for me - they taste slightly sweet which is a big no for me (hate mixing sweet/savoury together) and are quite soggy if eaten as a wrap rather than a pizza base.Just ordered some lodough pizza bases!
