how do you make the jelly?!

[onlyme!]

Mine looked like foam on top of water!

thanks

 

[lancslass53]

thats what it does look like but once u dig in past the foam its like proper jelly
cant remember how to make it as it was couple of years ago since i did it

 

[rebecca02uk]

made my first one this morning...was absolutely divine!!

Megan, if u pop it in the fridge for a few hours it should harden and as Mandy says, dig past the foam...it is de-li-cious!!

 

[onlyme!]

how much water? how much MAM?

 

[rebecca02uk]

I didn't measure my water but CDC recommends c.150ml water and 1 level scoop of MAM.

This is a bit controversial as you are only recommended one scoop MAM or one scoop flavouring? lol try half and half!

What flavouring do you have?

 

[onlyme!]

I have both! which is best?!

 

[rebecca02uk]

I only have Orange...made a lemony flavoured jelly. Let me know what the berry one is like if u make it!

 

[lancslass53]

i used to make both flavours and they are both yummy

I never thought of this!! I've got a whole tub of the water flavouring, might try it.

I've heard that you can have the jelly all day (spread it out throughout the day). Is this as well as your normal shkes/bars/soups or does the jelly count as one of your "meals" ?

I didn't know about jelly! so am I right in thinking it's water flavouring and mam with water?

 

[sumayyah]

i use leaf geletine insted of mam so i dont get the froth

i use 2 sheets to make a pint of jelly and a spoon of water flavoring. the berry makes a rasperry tasting jelly

It doesn't count as a meal and so is on top of your normal shakes etc x

Hi Zoe,

Correct - 150ml water, water flavouring and a small scoop of MAM.
Give it a go! is fab! x

Me, I was fine until this week now I'm on 810 it all went a bit off the rails! Getting back into it slowly. I didn't regain ALL the weight which is good, I also seem to have grown a bit! Woohoo!

I didn't find it that hard to start - just when I reintroduce food that it all goes wrong. I'm dreading 1000!

Is it possible to make the jelly without MAM?? I don't have any. I wonder will it work with gelatine, water and berry water flavouring??
