[Kaylz]

no idea how many carbs in gravy!)

Depends what it is, a 150ml portion of an oxo cube has 1.7g carbs where a knorr gravy pot 50ml portion has 1.8g carb, if he makes it himself could be more if he uses a thickening agent like corn flour or whatever x

It's Bisto gravy granules, from the Pound Shop. Really good, no lumps!

Vince, why did they eat cake with chop sticks? 😱

Look what I DIDN"T eat today.
Today is my Birthday and they bought this for me and I just had to sit and watch them devour it .
The aroma from it was Devine
Feel quite proud to be honest but it was OH SO DIFFICULT.

Yes, was quite pleased with myself, just the dinner was a tad piggy but at least only one meal and not extended over six hours. I've gone off the rails again since then, badly.

I won't post, don't want to mislead newbies is my excuse. 😉

Not surprised about Mark from The Chase being diagnosed, he just would not stick to the diet when he did Sugar Free Farm! Some people think they are invulnerable. Pot/kettle comes to mind.

The Chase star Mark Labbett reveals life-changing diagnosis: 'No ...

My grandson recently met Mark ~ The Beast ~ from The chase ~ he's lost 10st and is now 22st. Still very much overweight but I believe he's working on that. Grandson looked so tiny standing next to Mark !!

Gracious, I didn’t realise he was 32 stone at one time even though he looks 7ft tall!

He's massive in girth and height ~ tho his jacket did appear to look a tad on the large size. Grandson said Mark was great to talk with ~ sense of humour and a quick chat about diabetes. The uni students go to this club where celebs drop in for the evening ~ the week before he met the Chuckle Bros! He's loving Uni.
