17 November 2012 - Update

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
