    happy birthday efrieze XX

    ... what a coincidence victory, I was just thinking about you.

    Well done jillie, great loss.
  • Lost 1.5lbs this week :)

    And started WW today... Just need to choose Core or Points, think I'll start with Core and see how that goes for a while, can always swap around later on!

    Think I may have sussed something about this WL thing... The less I worry, the more I lose... So, for example, when I weighed myself last week, after being so well behaved, I only maintained... This week, was away all weekend, ate a bit of junk, drank a little too much, but wasn't silly with it, I lost... Hmmm....

    What a fabulous bunch of losers :j marion :j jillie :j lilac lillie :j and pixie :j ...

    ...kpc It's how you feel in your clothese that counts to me, I think they are the best indicator and it's not as if it's a big amount, the fact that you stay here too is also what matters as you are the first to admit at times to being a bit 'greedy' so don't worry, you are doing great :j andie don't worry either, if you've been ill your body hangs on to everything just in case it's needed (not that I really know ;) ) anyway you could be in for a pleasant surprise :j ...

    ...bb hope your wisdom teeth are feeling better (I could do with some being put in... and Bb I hope your jaw is easing...

    ...I've had to a swap with the menu so we're having the Quorn gujons tonight instead of tomorrow. I've made a spicy tomato sauce to go with them, but for some reason it doesn't taste quite right, don't know what I've done different :confused: can't decide whether to dump it and make some more as I don't know what to expect from the gujons...

    xxxx
    I wish that I could be the oldest AND wisest....sadly it's not the latter :p but my time will come _party_ wooooh hoooh! Beware!!!!!!!

    ......chuck some soy sauce in the sauce. Nature's perfect seasoning and the perfect fix for any sauce, whatever the problem :)

    I was thinking of trying using some smoked paprika, but now that it's bubbled and reduced a bit it doesn't taste too bad but is still in need of something.....so I may try the soy....If you're having me on I'll kill you until you're totally dead :rotfl:...

    .... :rotfl: dried chili pepper flakes too for a bit of oomph if it's supposed to be spicy!!!

    Trust me, I'm a doctor! 1 tbsp of dark soy sauce, then come back and tell me how it tastes. :)

    Super losses, team! Congrats! :D

    I've had such an energetic day today, clearing out, lugging boxes around and all sorts, but it feels great! How on earth did I get so many books? Still got more to do but I thought I'd give myself a little break.

    Bails, haha you want those scales! ;) Well, you know the drill, price comparison, voucher hunting, cashback websites! Or offset the cost by flogging something on eBay! Why not post up the model you decide you want and let us help you find the best price :D

    I would normally be thinking about doing another grocery shop now as it's been two weeks, but we're still going strong at the moment! Really hope to hold out until February!

    ...I've done it!...I added it a teaspoon at a time as I don't use it much (DD uses for Oriental stuff) and I must admit, that 3 tsps later (ie 1tbsp) it does taste a lot nicer :j it has a 'roundness' that wasn't there before :T I won't bother with the smoked paprika as I think there will be a confusion of flavours. I'd already got a fresh chilli in plus ground flakes (what's the point of selling mild chillies :confused: ) so Thanks ajax ol' chum :T :T All death threats have been put on hold intil MrP and DD taste it later on :D ...
