Welcome Mackeroo :-) Sorry I dont have that recipe...

Right well WI this morning and I got a silver 7 which means I've lost my first stone!!!! Hurrah! Am very pleased with myself and have decided today is all about me me me and as I'm on my own it can be!

So WW has a new recipe book out called 'just for me' has anyone bought it or had a look at it? Its a bunch of recipes just for one our leader said and its £5.95. I rarely cook properly or work from recipes but maybe if its just for one they wont be too complicated with hundreds of ingredients.. I really want to make a risotto but I am seriously pants when it comes to cooking rice - i get the microwave pouches since my last attempt :rolleyes:

Anyway, hope you are all well and have great Bank Holiday weekends - and I hope this suns sticks around for it!

Well done Puddings :T

Hmm, wierdly I didnt see your post Josey..congrats on you 2lbs loss and enjoy the BBQs :-)

Thanks nanna_jack

I've just had a lovely glass of wine and been adding my points up for today - forgot i now have ONE LESS from today!! Ah well, I have a box a Mikado in the cupboard (half price at Tesco) 3 sticks for 0.5points :j and I have 5 points left at the mo!

I have just emailed my leader to put me on the 'I want the just for me cookbook' list, I have also emailed her the points for the new Leggera range at Pizza Hut as she didn't have them - will have to find someone to go with to try it all out with the 241 voucher! Has anyone tried any yet?

Oh Sainsbury's have these at half price, did not pick them up as thought I may be tempted to eat the whole pack. Know I know they are low in points, I may have to buy some.

WW bring out one main cook book each year, and then some smaller ones that tend to be around for a couple of months or until stocks get used up. I love cook books and can read them like a novel. Its strange that they do not make me hungry.

Just been looking at pictures of food on an Disney Florida website, and partner said it was food !!!!!!.

Hey Josey...im the same.. i love cookbooks, food mags, food progs ...cant get enough of them...food !!!!!! is fab!! Well done on your weight loss so far, thats fantastic

Puddings

Lol at food !!!!!! but I'm so the same! I bought the WW mag at the meeting and have been staring at the BBQ ideas repeatedly...when I'm on the treadmill at the gym on a Saturday its saturday kitchen food !!!!!! for me - keeps me going!!

Oh and as for the Mikado sticks - DELICIOUS - and I stopped easily at 6 although not entirely sure how to poin that 6th one, the WW message boards say 3 = 0.5 and 5 = 1 point, so I'm classing it as 2 lots of three
