Starting yet again, I'm almost the heaviest I've ever been before. Now I am on the way to getting to my new size and this time I will stay there. This will be my fourth and LAST big weight loss. My ultimate goal is to have a healthy relationship with food and be slender for the rest of my life.

Jelly babies. Waitrose used to do a vegan version decades ago and I used to make a special journey - they're weren't so many Waitroses about then - and stock up. I only remebered them after looking at the veganstore for Karen so its not that bad a loss

I have been veggie for 12 years and just a few days ago went vegan - something I've been wanting to do for a good few years.
Already miss quorn as it's been at least 40% of my diet for the last 5 yearsthey should made quorn vegan.
mmm yes, i love quorn products, thats my main intake.
there is some vegan sausages, they are by linda McCartney. ive tried them, while they are nice they taste a bit meaty to me.... suspicously meaty lol. but very nice all the same.

I don't miss much as you can usually find a good quorn substitute but I do miss Steak and kidney pudding in chippy gravy.
SOMETIMES A DREAM TURNS INTO A DREAM - Tuomas Holopainen
I miss tuna mix (tuna, onion, mayo, sweetcorn, sundried tomatoes). I used to have tuna mix on jacket potatoes - but that's all. It's a lot easier being a veggie now than when I started - thank goodness
As I am a vegan, I really miss most sweet things as can't eat very much processed sweet treats now. I miss maltesers, milk chocolate, naan bread, halloumi cheese, feta cheese - but wouldn't actually be able to stomach it anymore anyway.
Trying to lose baby weight. I believe in healthy eating and limiting portion sizes.
A recipe for a fake feta made from tofu. Its so long since I had real feta that I like this, I doubt its very like the real thing.
Credit due to Bryanna Clark Grogan, a great cookbook writer. This was on her blog once but I can't find it now.
Bryanna's Quick Tofu Feta
6 oz firm tofu, crumbled
1 tsp agar powder (or 2 tbsp flakes)
2 tbsp water
1/2 tsp sugar
1 tbsp neutral-tasting cooking oil
1 1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp light miso
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Blend tofu, agar, water, sugar, oil, and salt in food processor till smooth.
Place mixture in heavy-bottomed small saucepan and stir over medium heat till it bubbles for a few minutes and thickens.
Whisk miso and lemon juice into cooked mixture.
Pour into a flat container, cover, and chill till firm.
Cut into squares.
To store: make a fairly salty brine of salt and water (about 1 tbsp salt per cup of water) boiled together for 5 minutes, cool it, and pour it into a covered container in the refrigerator in this brine.

ps, not all naan has dairy in it - check ingredients, I can't remember which brands were OK but I think one of the Tesco own brands was OK. I think the Sainsburys Free from little chocolate bars are pretty close to milk chocolate and not to calorific/syn filled to get back on track for a weight loss forum

Thanks so much Micci, that's so lovely of you to post that recipe. It looks lovely. Tofu gets boring sometimes so it's great to have a way to change it a bit. I'm going to give that a try with my next weekly shop. I think my husband would appreciate it too. He's not a vegan but I do all the cooking so he misses out on foods he used to like too. Many thanks for the tips about naans. I do remember a pack of small naans from Tesco that used to be lovely and were vegan but my local Tesco has stopped stocking them. I'll have to try the larger store. Next time I'm in Sainsburys I'll look out for that chocolate too. It's good to have a treat once in a while. Many thanks.
