wow, has it been 2 weeks since my last update? I guess it has..
It's been an interesting 2 weeks really, in fact it's been an interesting month....at my best, I had lost 67lbs (just over 30 kilos) but then things went wrong....I gained 6 lbs over a couple of weeks. I felt as though I was experimenting with myself to see have far I could push myself, but I guess I went too far, but it was worth it, cause you learn boundaries.
Anyway, 2 weeks ago I got back on track and lost 2 lbs, and this week I am pleased to say I have lost another 2 lbs, so I am back to a total of 65lbs lost (just under 30 kilos).
So in celebration of getting back on track, I thought I would share a little recipe with you that I tried out on myself and loved...I call it Texan Hobo Pie....
Boil a medium sized potato (or 2 smaller ones) and then mash with the skins still on. Because of the skin, the mash almost looks dirty (like a Hobo). Take some corn beef and mush it in a bowl with some Texan BBQ sauce (until it becomes soft and squidgy). Place it in the bottom of a decent sized ramekin until it is over half full. Add a layer of grated mature cheese. Put the mash potato on top until the ramekin is full and then cover with another layer of cheese. Place in the oven (190 degrees) and allow to cook for 15-20mins or until golden brown and properly warmed through.
there you go...if you decide to give it a go, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Come back next week for another update, lets see if I can get back to where I was before things went all "pete tong"....
Have a great week people

3 November 2012 - Update
Happy November everybody :)
New months are all about new starts....and this month is no different. I have finished October on a low note....last week there was no update, and why?? Well cause I was a bad boy :P My wife was away for a night, and I decided to let me hair down and have a little party for one....roll on the KFC, Pringles and chocolate....I knew I would gain weight, after all, the weigh-in was the very next moring, and eating until 4am isn't advised...but I had it in my head I will lose it again during the next week....how wrong was I???
This last week has been worse than ever...so many parties...so many reasons to eat and try new foods including a lovely sweet chilli pasta dish which I will test myself and then post a recipe here :)
It's funny, but I am hoping that by posting an update here today, I will make the change and be more determined to lose not only the 2lbs 2 weeks ago, but the 4 I added this week :((((
Onwards and downwards is the motto for this week....looking foward to a happier report next Saturday :))
Cheers guys
