You can watch 4od online at Channel 4! Hmm... Now this has got my thinking of doing my own cookery show and putting it on youtube from my own slimming world recipes and other suggestions! what do you guys think? Would you watch or is it a waste of time?

I love it!! I've been watching it religiously on 4od! I wish there was a slimming world cooking channel.. Maybe one day there will be and I could be the new Gizzy...*day dreams*

Thanks for the reminder... I keep meaning to go.. Although last time i donated it was a bit of a disaster and I bled everywhere.. they probably wont want me back again!

I love the sainsbury's fresh tortallini arrabiata! I just have it plain and its so quick and easy for lunch :)

Making Falafels for the first time for a starter for a special meal tonight but i dont know what to make with it? Any suggestions for a main meal to go with them?! Are you ment to serve them with a dip!? having a green day! Thanks

my one big one.. Going into a shop and not pretending that i need a bigger size because " the shops have made all the sizes smaller these days..!" Thats what I always told myself because i was getting bigger not the clothes getting smaller..!
