midwife_twinkie - it depends how your will power is! Its easier to cheat when you don't have to stand on the scales in front of another person and I would always convince myself this and that reason for not losing. I need the discipline of goingt o a group same night every week (though I should stay to class more than I should!)

Hi Midwife Twinkie

It depends how strong willed you are - if I did it at home I would cheat. I need the discipline of going to class and being weighed.

It also helps to meet other people on the diet, and get ideas from them - it also helps that our consultant is great, and the meetings are fun as well as informative.

hi there skint_catt i see what you are saying i know i would be prone to cheat by doing it online i think i should maybe try a group anyway good luck with your weight loss XX

Due to an error with Tesco Direct shopping I have 16 pieces of salmon !! Anyone have any ideas what to do with them except plank in the oven or grill pan.

There is a recipe for spicy salmon fishcakes on the SW site if that helps... they look nice.

I have made these today. Yummy. I added fresh coriander and used chilli powder instead of the fresah red chilli. Got loads leftover. Now to freeze or to nibble??
