Heading for winter with Slimming World

blackberry-rum

Hello Zippy, I'll leave Maman to respond with her recipe but I just bash up the potato and cabbage/broccoli or whatever, sometimes some onion too, spray the george forman grill with oil and pat the bubble & squeak out to fit the grill, mmmmmmmm

As for it EVER being too hot for Dizzy to eat :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I resent that my pea and ham soup for dinner isn't superfree! Now I've got to have more flipping fruit :mad: I love peas so much, it bugs me that they don't 'count' :rotfl:

No syns yet today. 'darling' husband ordered in a pizza :eek: but I haven't touched it. Mainly because it has peppers in, but still.... Still on a 100% week so far

Weigh in number 17, and despite being mega good, loads of body magic, and being on Xenical....i just lost 1lb....tho i did my lovely purple 3 stone award! So i am chuffed to bits about that!
its just a wee bit fustrating, when u have been soooooo good :mad: and just loose one pound......and you hear others saying how bad they were....eating nuts, crisps, apple tarts etc over halloween..and then loose 2lb / 3lb....i know everyones body is different...but if i worked so hard to loose 1lb....imagine what i would put on if i had a bad day....or a weekend on the town..:eek:

Piglet, maybe last week's loss is catching up with you IYSWIM? That works out at nearly 4 stone a year so not to be sniffed at! Well done :j

Hi Ladies


I'm hoping to join a Slimming World class tomorrow, so hopefully you won't mind me coming on here for help and advice ?

Does anyone know if there are any joining offers / vouchers available at the minute ?

There was any offer in Bella, not sure exactly what it was but on the cover it said save £37.50 (not sure how that is possible, doesn't cost THAT much to join)

Hi Lynne how much pudding rice + diet cream soda do you use and do you cook it in the oven or on the hob? I love rice pudding one of my fave pudds yum

Sorry for the late reply, I haven't been online much.

I made my American soda rice pudding just in a pot. Used 1.5 litres of soda and about a 1/3rd of a 500g packet of rice, but to be honest there was enough for an army and it was a bit thick. I ended up with 5 -6 VERY generous portions . Its nice on its own but also good if you add a muller - makes a a lovely free breakfast (toffee muller + banana was the nicest but also made orange and apple with a mandarin muller).

When I make it again I'll probably try about 150 g of rice and a litre of soda. Put both in a pan and boil until cooked. Add more soda if necessary.

Someone in my class did it in a slow cooker and another did it in the oven and added a beaten egg to the top when it was nearly cooked to give it that crispy top taste.

TIE, sorry to hear about your dad.

Piglet, I always think that when you have a biggish lossyour body takes time to adjust - almost like it's catching up with itself and settling down, before it can lose a bit more. Also sometimes with my big losses they are slightly 'false' - perhaps I drank lots of booze the night before and am a bit dehydrated, and ate early that evening, so it's been ages without food, etc etc... so on top of a moderate loss I get a little bit more too. Then that 'false' loss takes a bit longer to 'really' lose the following week, but meanwhile you get on the scales and think, argh, I've hardly lost anything.

Does that make any sense?

piglet74

yeah...that does make sense. thanks...its just when u have been MEGA good....its a wee bit fustrating...aint it...to just loose 1lb...also i have been taking Xenical for the past 2 months or so. i hadnt gone over 10 syns this week, never mind 15. tho anytime i cut back on the syns, it doesnt really boost my losses.
i think i need to up the superspeeds a wee bit too. but i wont give up, i have dropped 3 dress sizes in 4 months and lost 42lbs, so i am please with that. even if it slows down to 1lb a week, i can live with that ok
i could easily loose another 3 stone, but i might be happy with 2 / 2.5,

its still that far away i cant set a final target weight, but i might after i get the next stone off.:o

at the mo.....im gonna take it half stone award at a time....so i am hoping for my 3.5 award for xmas...so thats 7lbs, in the next 6 weigh ins. so fingers crossed.

Yes my mum does. She will lose nothing then 3lb the next week, then nothing then 2/3lb again. She's been doing it for weeks now and swears she's doing nothing different each week.
