New thread 😘

Well done @Lubilu28.

Chilli sounds good @Trills

I’ve added my sauce recipe.

Oops @Trills

Looks good, thanks for the recipe!

Some good losses on here, we'll done guys.

Dh wanted curry tonight so he had takeaway and I had a sw ready meal curry (chicken saag) and I made onion bhajis! See picture! They were really good actually, had the right taste and about 1.5 syns each. Ate and watched the godfather which neither of us have watched before... Was good but long!

Haven't had time to get on here all week just had quick glance through well done to everyone who has lost X
Iv decided I'm going to weigh just once a month (although in certain il have plenty of sneaky peeks too ) as at moment I'm weighing every Monday and if I have a bad week midweek I find myself writing off the rest of the week thinking fresh start Monday! So thought I'd give it a go just weighing tomorow as normal then just on 1st of every month and see how I get on that way. Just booked our holiday for next July and really want to be at goal for it.

Where are you going on holiday?

We are off to Florida

I love Florida. Amazing xx

Trying the Ryvita lightly salted rice cakes which 5 are your HE. I really like them.

I've managed to complete a weekend totally on track! Feels like it's been weeks since I managed this!

Hope it makes a difference on Tuesday!

Hello, Can I join? I've lost 10 1/2 lbs so far and have 1st 1lb left to get to my 1st target.

Good luck @OwlinaTree

Welcome @Petaldrops, what an achievement of 10.5st. That is awesome!

Good luck owl X
Welcome petal
12.2 for me today so gained since last wi but onwards and downwards for be I hope. Tesco this morning so can stick up on good foods!

Thanks ladies I'm going to try the SW chicken and ham pot pies for dinner tonight as they look easy enough to make.

Good luck for this week @Flutterby81.

I’m thinking about making soup for lunch. I fancy some nice warm soup.

I'm back to 12st 10 this morning! That was my lowest weigh before pizza-gate sent me into a tailspin

It has taken a couple of weeks to get over my faffing but I'm back. I feel back on track now that I'm not just playing with "old weight"; anything I lose from this point is uncharted territory.

Well done Lubilu

Well done @amusedbush

Morning everyone! The discussion in group this morning was about soup recipe ideas. They included pea & ham, carrot & ginger, pumpkin, broccoli &"stilton" using laughing cow blue cheese triangles, leek & potato and carrot & honey. I made a lentil &tomato soup at the weekend.

I've lost 1.5 lb so that's last week's gain sorted. Unless it's cancelled at the last minute I'll be having my op on Thursday. I'm hoping an ovarian cyst the size of half a house brick weighs heavy so I have a good loss in a couple of weeks!

Wishing you all a good week.

Thanks @groovee
Well done late December and good luck to everyone for this week x

Well done @latedecember1963 and good luck for Thursday.

I just made soup. Grated carrots, courgette, chopped up leek and potatoes with vegetable stock and pepper. Was very tasty.

Good luck latedecember1963!

I've just had home made soup for lunch - curried sweet potato and butternut squash. It was delicious and perfect for this freezing cold day.

@amusedbush do you mind sharing the recipe for your soup please?

"Recipe" is a very grandiose term for it

It varies based on whatever needs using in the fridge but this week it's one roasted BNS, a large sweet potato, a large carrot, shallots and garlic.

Fry off the shallots and garlic then add in everything else with enough stock to cover. Usually I use two veg stock cubes but I had a beautiful pot of ham stock thanks to a gammon I boiled for salads

Simmer for 20-30 mins and then blend. I added 2tbsp medium curry powder, 1tbsp cumin and salt/pepper to taste.

Hope the op goes well december.

I wish I got on with soups - for some reason I'm ravenous when I don't eat anything 'solid', even when it's pretty chunky.

Weekend was pretty appalling for wine (although I stayed on plan for food and didn't pick up many food based syns at all) so doing SP today and tomorrow to try and chase a loss on Wednesday....

Good luck all

Perfect, thanks @amusedbush
