I'm a Wednesday Weigher too, so thought I'd come on board. Lost 3st 10lb since 25th January, just need 4 lb more to get a lime green sticker. Have run out of space on the front of my book!!! Lost 2lb this week so have 7 weeks 'til Florida holiday to get rid of the last 4lb!!!

Green peppers are evil - taste so raw and nasty. Orange and red are lovely though, much sweeter. Can stand green ones cooked, but no way would I eat them raw.

I roast veggies using frylight, re-spray a couple of times during cooking, then sprinkle on balsamic once served. Scrummy

Ooops, didn't think about that. Don't think there's any info on the label, but will check. Didn't think about it as I used actual chipotle flakes which will be free. Suppose you could use normal chilli flakes and a bit of smoked paprika to achieve a similar taste and they would both be free...

Thought about stirring in a bit of 0% yoghurt at the end to make it more creamy, but didn't want to ruin it!! I'm not noted for my cooking skills, so it was great to cook something that OH actually asked if we can have again!!!!

Made this last night, turned out really lovely, so though I would share. Is free on EE and would serve 2 hungries, or 3 not-so-hungries. 500ml carton of passata 1 fat clove of garlic medium red onion 5 or 6 medium mushrooms pinch sweetner half teaspoon chipotle chilli or teaspoon chipotle...

Oh god, the plane one is so me!!(Just look at my signature thingy!!) I'd love to be able to get my tray down flat for my meal and drink. Only time I've ever been able to do that was when we flew in upper class!!! I bought a pair of size 16 shorts from Debenhams and hung them on the wardrobe door...

Why don't you try a different group. If your consultant isn't working out for you where it's all going wrong, then she's not up to much. Please don't give up - we all need to stick together, but it sounds like you need some willpower too as you are already admitting to us on here where the...

My treat is that when I go for WI on a Wednesday evening OH cooks tea for me so that it's ready when I get home. Still SW food, but the treat is that I don't have to cook it!!!

I buy 'em from Lidl too!!

what about potato, pasta and tuna salad with mint sauce?? Boil new potatoes and pasta (can do them in the same pan if you want) When cooked, chill in fridge (overnight is fine) then in the morning, flake a tin of tuna into the mix and make up some mint sauce with malt vinegar (check for a syn...

I find a huge bowl of couscous in the fridge helps. I make it with onions done in frylight, a few chopped apricots (syns, but not many), some chickpeas, chopped orange segments and pomegranate seeds. Once it's made, it keeps for a couple of days, and is quite filling to snack on.

Looks good, must buy gelatine tomorrow.....can't wait. Off to make another giant jaffa cake for family gathering tomorrow, not gonna tell 'em it's SW though!!!

I do a salad with about half a pint of frozen peas cooked in microwave for 3 mins, cool in running water then add 2 tbsp jar mint sauce (syn free one) and 2 tbsp malt vinegar to peas, then chill for at least half an hour. Then wash 2 little gem lettuce and place individual leaves on a plate...

Sorry, but lasagne is the one thing I ain't messing with on this diet....I'd rather have a smaller portion of the 'real' thing than try a low syn version. Rant over (but it my most fave thing in the whole foodie world, even more than chocolate ...lol)

I want the jelly sweets recipe too....c'mon...share!!!!!

I use it to make the chilli and butternut squash risotto on SW website, or roast it in the oven with other veggies and sprinkle with balsamic vinegar.

I just fry turkey steaks in frylight after coating them in finely chopped chilli, black pepper and lemon zest. If they start to look a bit dry whilst frying, squeeze a bit of lemon juice over too. Really tasty with a green salad and some new potatoes or couscous on EE. Really good quick evening...

Hi Oddsock, welcome to the site. You should easily do Goal 2...I've done 3st 1lb in 16 weeks and I have no willpower!!! I'm doing SW and the support I get from my weekly group and this site are keeping me going.

Jellybaby1 - don't forget that you need to set the jelly in something else then turn it out onto the sponge when set. It took me ages to find a baking tin the right size to fit!!! Hadn't really thought about the fact that I couldn't pour the liquid jelly straight onto the sponge!! I was...

I did the giant jaffa cake recipe off here - it went down a treat

Made this for taster tonight - went down a treat!

Been looking on here for ages, joined SW in January and am hoping to get a shiny purple sticker tonight!!! Recipe section is ace, just made the Giant Jaffa cake to take to class tonight as we are doing a taster session

Think this book is really fab - great pasta ideas - I was a bit bored with passata garlic & onion sauce!!!
