Thats brill, well done!

I need to lose about 5 1/2 stone to get down to the top end of my ideal weight for my height. I try not to think about it though. One stone at a time!

To be honest I'm not really bothered about what I weigh, more about what I look like!

Well done nanna_jack!

You're right, it's much better than gaining. You might be suprised when you get weighed next week.

Keep it up!

Morning Everyone
Hope you all well
Just popped by to say hello and to beg/borrow a recipie if you have one...im looking for the WW chickpea and lentil casserole recipie, i made it ages ago and its quite tasty and v low points, the only prob is i gave my cookbook to my friend last week without taking a note of the recipie so if anyone has it i would be much obliged!!

I am a WW member and have been for around 3 years, very much off and on tho!! I managed to lose 3 stone in total for my wedding last year, which was great...however i was then off sick from work with bad back for 4 months and have put 2 stone back on...GUTTED!! So im back to WW again, been going for 4 weeks and have lost 5 pound, to be hones my heart really hasnt been in it for the first wee while, but im back on track and pointing like a mad crazy woman!!

Anyway i hope to be around for a while and get to know you all, hope you all have a nice weekend

I have found this one which works out at 11 points for the complete recipe.
Lentil & Chickpea Casserole
Low fat cooking spray
1 red onion, sliced thinly
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 celery sticks, chopped
1 teaspoons cumin seed
400g can cherry tomatoes
400g can green lentils, drained
400g can chickpeas, drained
1 vegetable stock cube
150ml boiling water
150g (5 ½ oz) young leaf spinach
1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsleyMethod
Lightly coat a large lidded non stick saucepan with low fat cooking spray. Heat until hot. Add the onion and fry for 3 minutes. Add the garlic, celery and cumin and continue cooking in the onions juices for 3 minutes to soften the vegetables.
Add the tomatoes, lentils and chickpeas with the stock cube and water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in the spinach and cook for a further 2 - 3 minutes until the spinach has wilted. Serve hot with a sprinkle of parsley on top.
