    Quorn - what do you have

    I really like quorn sausages and I use them when I have a breakfast or even as part of a dinner. I also don't mind the quorn burgers. When I make a chilli I more often than not use quorn mince and I have used quorn chicken pieces in a curry before. I do like quorn a lot. :)

    Leek and potato soup

    Cheap, easy and delicious!! I did this off the cuff and didn't have a recipe to hand and mine turned out really tasty. I basically chopped 3 leeks, 3 large potatoes, 2 onions and added stock... I WOULD have used veg stock cubes but I only had chicken in the house so chicken stock it was lol...

    Tassimo Milk - HEA?

    Hiya, thanks. I think that one is a hot chocolate. If I remember rightly the expresso discs are free just not sure about the milk. I would have thought if it was just milk with nothing added it would be free but who knows lol I'm also not sure if it is semi or full fat. :/ Thanks for looking. :)

    Tip for you for SW Wedges/chips

    Good idea! Well I must be slow too because I didn't even think of that! lol I will definitely try that next time.. Oxo cube.. different :) Think I'll try that too! I like the chips but would be better with more flavour than just plain potato :)

    disappointed with SW leader...

    Even though I've only been going to group since October, I think I'd be devestated if our leader left without telling us!! I think I can understand the reasoning behind it... but I still wouldn't like it.

    Stuck to my diet 100% - what am I doing wrong

    Our consultant said the other week, even though fruit is good for you, it's also full of sugar. So eating a lot of fruit and not having regular meals around eating the fruit means your body is absorbing the sugar which won't help your weight loss much. Also try altering your snacks and as...
