    What days do you prefer laura - red or green (or Extra Easy)?

    For brekkie on green you could have cooked pudding rice mixed with yoghurt or poached/fried egg & baked beans.
    On red I usually have bacon & mushrooms or some crunchy bran cereal.

    Lunches I tend to stick with salads on a red day (with chicken or prawns) and on green I love my savoury rice or mugshots.

    Green dinners can be pretty much anything (anything you'd make with meat can be done with quorn mince or chunks - both free) but I love my pasta, baked beans & cheese as a real comfort food dinner!
    Red dinners are usually meat/fish/chicken with a HEb jacket potato and free veggies.

    Wow!!! :j
    has anyone tried freezing grapes in a wee box or bag?
    they dont go rock too solid but are chilled & more delicious
    i could hardly believe it till i did it last night
    my grandson loved them too
    great for nibbling at before after food or whenever
    Enjoy!!!!!

    Laura I love Chilli Con Carne with rice for dinner or you could always fill up with SW chips with egg and beans. Bolognese is always good with pasta too. I usually have a big salad with egg for lunch or a salad sandwich using the bread as a HE. Baked potatoes are always delicious and you can put beans with them or a salad with HE cheese.
  • thank you for your ideas, i'll try and be more adventurous!

    i find green days easier but i like to try and have a mix of green days and red days. I might try the extra easy some more and see if that helps!

    You can buy any of the cookery books direct from Slimming World by ringing the book order line on 0844 892 04 04 :)

    I have just rung SW and have been told they no longer sell books over the phone and that I have to go along to a meeting. :(

    They aren't taking into account the people who can't attend meetings for whatever reason and I think this is just going to make people buy from Ebay instead.
  • WI last night, and put on a pound. Disappointing but not entirely unexpected as I really hadn't stuck to it for the last couple of weeks. Back to the plan today and determined to stick to it.

    Hi guys.

    Can i please slink back in and sit at the back? :o

    I followed this thread a while back and it was an absolute godsend - and I am now back on the wagon.
    I can't get to any classes local to me due to my working hours, but I may join online - I need to look into it.
    In the meantime I got weighed last Saturday so I am almost one week in and Im so glad to have taken control again.
    I had my favourite for dinner last night SW chips, beans and a poached egg with loads of vinegar! Mmmmmm..

    Its great to see people still here that were here last time - well done for staying the course!:T

  • I get fed up with eating the same thing for meals too - esp lunches cos I still miss white bread sarnies - sometimes I try to do a week or few days out the latest magazine to give me a change and diff ideas

    also if you manage to keep aside leftovers from the night before they make nice lunches - we had chilli and rice (from the extra easy cookbook - yum with a tin of baked beans added as well) for tea one night - it fed all 8 of us and there was a portion leftover which I had with a jacket spud the following lunch
