    I pray that it will be simple, speedy and pain-free...

    tweets, would you mind if I picked your brain ;) my dh and I are trying the slimming world easy eating plan but not going to a meeting so there is a few things I would like to ask, I've been using Google to help me as much as I can :)

    Anyone doing slimming world who is looking for sausages should try Porky Whites Lights.

    Half a syn per sausage and they are dee-lish (just tried some for the first time tonight)

    They are £2 per pack of 6 in A and well worth every penny (and that's coming from me!!)
