Oooh lemon curd is an absolute favourite of mine. I look forward to trying this soon. Got the lemons but not the fromage frais. A trip to the supermarket tomorrow will sort that out. Thank you for sharing :0) xx

This sounds gorgeous and even for someone like me, who can't cook to save their life, couldn't go far wrong with that many ingredients & prep. Can't wait to try it. Thank you for posting :0) xxx

HaHa lass321 your post did make me chuckle :0) Reading your signature you have accomplished a heck of a lot already. No doubt you will achieve your goal. I always get to 14st 2pds and then I hit a brick wall and can't get any further. The 13stone bracket is elusive and I wobble, go out of...

Thank you peachy7 for this recipe. I have just made it tonight and it is delicious. I am on my own, kids out, and I could have so easily just caved and had pizza or fish and chips. BUT, I made this quick and easy dahl and my diet is not broken for another day. Plus got plenty left for tomorrow...

Going to give this a whirl today. I too love chutneys and pickles so this will be a fab addition. Bet it would be lovely mixed in with some mashed potato. Thanks for posting :0) xxx

Well I couldn't wait and made the North African Curry yesterday and, although I say it myself, it was delicious. I used four birds eye chilies, and kept the seeds in, so it had a kick like a mule. Just how I like it :0) Will definitely be making it again and, since there is only me in the house...

So glad that this post has been bumped. I too will be making the North African Curry this weekend. Bought all the ingredients and just need to dust off the old slow cooker. Thank you and I look forward to trying more of the yummy recipes in this thread :0) xxx

Hello and welcome :0) Wishing you much success on your weight loss plan. Those vibrating plates sound like fun. I've got a bit too much to jiggle at the moment; fear it might be painful. Will wait till lost a bit and then maybe give them a go. Here's to a slimmer you and a happy holiday in...

Aww a glamourous grannie!! I was to to be a grannie at 43 but unfortunately it didn't happen. My daughter is a vegetarian and I am happy, like yourself, to eat quorn. It can be really tasteless but, given time to infuse, the flavour can be enhanced. It is great you have your family behind you...

Hello Kelly :0) I am also new on here and doing slimming world. Good luck on your weight loss journey. I look forward to hearing about your success and any tips you have to offer along the way :0) xxx

Hello Lynda :0) I know exactly what you mean about access to the computer. I have the same problem. Can I just say that you have achieved so much already. Undergoing surgery for a breast lump and meeting the challenges that fibromyalgia presents is a huge accomplishment. You are much stronger...

Hi haylou123 just wanted to wish you the best of luck. I am also doing slimming world at home and using the magazines and the tips I've picked up from the site. Feels sometimes like a bit of a minefield but I'm sure, with time, the programme will become second nature. Wishing you much success...

Hi Minimy :0) I am new too and so glad I've found this site. Congratulations on your weight loss! It is not daft joining the site now. I have been at target numerous times and piled back on the pounds with a few extra for good measure. Maintance is so difficult and if I had had support once at...

Heffalump I'm sorry I have no pearls of wisdom but read your post and didn't just want to read and run. What a major achievement sticking to the plan for 5 weeks. That shows huge commitment and says that you are determined to meet your goals and that you want this to work for you. I hope it...

Hello newbieslimmer :0) I too am new to the site. I think it is just a case of clicking on links and going where they may take you. Trial and error. I'm sure wherever the link goes it will have some nugget of wisdom/useful information on your weightloss journey. Good luck hun :0) xxx

Looking good! I think Santa may have to sit down!! Well done hun. A fabulous weight loss. All that hard work has definitely paid off. Unfortunately smaller stockings means less presents but who cares when you look as good as you do. Keep up the good work. xxx

Hi LouQ :0) thank you very much. I think I need all the luck I can get. Willpower is not my strongest point! I am full of good intentions and if wishing made something come true well move over Kate Moss. But, alas I have to put some wellie behind all that daydreaming. I have a feeling fat free...

I am so sorry for your loss Welshtigger. Horses are such spiritual animals. To have had Humphry in your life will, no doubt, have been a true joy. They give so much more than they take and have a gentleness and understanding of others that we can only hope to emulate. Hold tight to your...

Aww thank you karentom1 for your lovely welcome :0) I really hope that will be the case and I can wear something special for her big day. Shame it is so soon after Christmas though ;0) xxx

Hello :0) I have been a member for a little while but just taken the plunge to say hi :wave_cry: It is a fab site and everyone is so warm and encouraging. A perfect slimming tool if ever there was one. I have 4stones and 4 pounds to lose and would like to achieve this for my daughter's 21st. I...

I am so sorry to hear about your friend. I have worked on gynae and oncology and although very distressing for the relatives and friends the women showed such strength and spirit. It was a true honour to work with these ladies and they taught me such an appreciation of life and they somehow...
