    OMG, I put on 2.5lb !!! :eek: :eek: :eek: How did that happen????? :(:(

    Only thing I can think of is that I went to the gym today and I had a big lunch?? I'm also half way through my period so maybe that has something to do with it? I'm blinkin annoyed as I was soooooo restrained this weekend when we went away and was really careful when we had DH meal out :(.

    I just hope it comes off, plus more, next week :mad:

    Evening all! Just popping in to tell you I've lost 1.5lbs this week. Very pleased with that, 2.5lbs to go to target.

    We had the SW butter chicken for tea (recipe is on the recipe thread), it was really yummy but I made it a little bit too hot! I'm not going to mention the HM naan or HM chicken pakoras we had with it....if I don't talk about them they don't count!!!

  • Hi all!

    Well I finally did it and joined my first group on Monday! :j I've joined online before but never been to group.

    It's really focused me, which is why I did it, and I also picked up a new recipe idea as they were having a bit of a party!

    I guess it won't be new to a lot of people but thought I'd mention it anyway. It's a chickpea dhal bake. The consulatant brought it in and it was lovely. Mine is in the oven right now!

    You just cook up a packet of free savoury rice, curry flavour, mix in a tin of ASDA chickpea dahl, mix in 4 beaten eggs and throw it in a flan dish and bake till set.

    It slices up lovely and makes a great snack or part of a packed luch etc..

    Hope this helps! :)

    Currently eating sprouting broccoli mixed into some not very exciting vegetable soup. The broccoli stems are a bit tough, reminds me of asparagus that people haven't broken the woody ends off, so am leaving a little green pile behind! :D


    I love pickled garlic, often have a clove or three as an appetiser. Also this week I've become hooked on a giant plateful of superfree (raw) celery, cucumber, radish, onion, beetroot - with a pile of seafood in the middle - and just slowly eating my way through it, by god it's tasty and I do feel virtuous and clean when it's all gone down!

    We had a taster party last night, some good stuff but I think the best was the home made pork sausages someone made from one of the Extra easy cookbooks, I don't really like sausage but these were gorgeous.
    :jThat's 2 stone 9 lbs gone forever:j

    thank you Slimming World!
