Hi all,
I'm aiming to lose 1lb a week for 16 weeks. Currently on week 4 and am on track!

I'm running out of meal ideas so if you have any great recipes/ideas I'd love to hear them. I'll leave some of my regulars below also.

Chicken/beef/pork/fish fajitas with salsa, guacamole and salad. Usually shred the meat to make it go further.

Baked Chicken Meatballs in tomato sauce with pasta www.slimmingeats.com/blog/slow-cooker-italian-chicken-meatballs# delicious and 100% recommend trying these!

Curries, I currently love this version of butter chicken: www.slimmingeats.com/blog/healthy-butter-chicken-murgh-makhani

I really love the slimming eats recipes, they're usually really tasty and easy to follow.
