Hi all

I fancy making a veg curry this week - does anyone have a good basic recipe?

I have just been to a kids party and couldn't resist the food so today is pretty much a write off so I am just going to enjoy a glass of wine tonight and get back on track tomorrow. I also bought the mag so think I will try and meal plan for the week ahead.

Unfortunatley exercising is out of the window as I fell over on the ice this week and have whiplash!

Sorry, that was so long!!

I think it may be because I ate LOADS of free food but not much superfree so I am going to try and switch that this week. also I had 5 green days.

I do this too, only started a few days ago but feel all Ive done is eat pasta, potatoes and eggs - am sure I wont have lost much at all come tuesdays weigh in. I'm struggling with un derstanding it all as I had to miss the first meeting as there were so many new members to get through that it would have made me late for work.

I had a cappuccino in town today, with full fat milk. It wasn't a chain so I can't find out the calorie content but a Costa Coffee one has 5 syns, do you think this is safe to go with?

Hi All,

I've done something I know I shouldn't have and am upset now!!

I started SW again on Weds and have done EE each day. I have eaten loads of superfree and stuck to the plan religiously.
However, today I weighed myself (I know I should wait till weigh in!) and I've put 2 pounds on. I'm gutted.

When I did sw 18 mths ago I lost 7 pounds the 1st week and never ever lost less than 3pounds a week and the only thing I'm doing differently now is EE rather than red/green.

I'm wondering if ee is going to work for me. I really like it though. Has anyone else experienced this?

What do you do with the pancakes then? Just roll the whole banana up in the pancake?

Are you crazy? I would never ever dare MAKE such a hugely calorific delight for fear that I would then want to make them for every meal I've only ever had them at pancake stands. We have a continental market in Belfast once a year at Christmas and on the very last day of the market I will go in and have one Once you start you can't stop.

And the banana is chopped and then the pancake is folded in half I believe after being liberally spread with nutella.

Much as I love the M&S COU chocolate mousse it is NOT the same thing

Are you sure it isn't TOTM or your body perhaps hasn't adapted to the amount of fruit and veg you're eating and you're a little bloated? I've not done EE myself being largely veggie but I know in my class people have seen pretty good losses from it.

TBH I don't think you should panic until you get to Wed and see what's happened then...

And certainly don't give up and start eating crazy (which I know is what I would be tempted to do ) over time it will work. Stick with it.

Thank you.

I am going to stick with it, I'm just really disappointed after I have stuck to it so well!

I'm going for a looooooong bath now so that might relax me a bit. Will just have to see what happens on Weds.

I want to lose 2 stones by summer :rolleyes:

just noticed you just had 1 slice of nimble for brekkie. You can have 2 slices of 400g (small) loaf for your heb. So if you havnt used it somewhere else, you can go and have that piece of bread your craving.
