Whats everyones favourite SW Meal?
Do you all have that one meal you have regularly that you just couldn't be without? or do you save that favourite for a special treat?
MMM sounds nice, is the recipe in a book? I like the sweet chilli chicken recipe, do you know it? - i usually do it with stir fry veg and noodles but I had it so often for a while I've gone off it a bit now :SI really like the Sweet and Sour Chicken with Noodles, I make that in batches and freeze it so we have it loads!

Im really not a big fish fan so never have anything like that, i am trying to eat more fish but I really am not a fan of fishy fish...haha - had to google the risotto and it sounds delicious!!
I'm trying to think - perhaps kedgeree or salmon fish cakes, when I can be bothered! OH OH OH! Or a Milanese risotto. So good and indulgent and if you use the cheese as your HEXA, then it is just a couple of syns for the wine in it. Made myself hungry for my supper before I've even had my lunch! I think I just usually think what takes my fancy to eat and if it is t a SW meal just making it SW friendly. I don't have any SW cookbooks though.

The cookbooks are ok, good for my boyfriend as he loves to follow a recipe, but tbh you can get it all online now. I just google 'SW' and then whatever it is I am after and bingo i find a recipe.

really easy to make - ill find the recipe and post it here shortly xxYeah the recipe is in a book, it's in 50 Free Food Feasts (I think!), I've posted it in a thread on here somewhere at some point, if I find it I'll let you know! I don't know the Sweet Chilli one, sounds nice though, is it easy?
Sorry!I don't eat meat so eat quite a lot of fish - I know what you mean about fishy fish though... There is only so much Quorn one can eat (though another favourite is Quorn low fat (syn free) sausages with mash, peas and gravy - a couple of syns worth of gravy is all!)
Such a bad idea to be ravenous and thinking of food just as I'm about to go in to do a quick food shop in my lunch break!
Ellie, that didn't take long! Boom
I've got an assault course of temptation this week, a meeting where lunch is provided...tonnes of sandwiches that are not SW friendly along with crisps Chinese and Indian savouries like mini spring rolls and bhajees. Made my on SW pasta carbonara with spinach no bacon.
Then graduation day tomorrow, full day out with family in tow ,eating out and pub. Give me strength!
4 off for me with slimming of the week!
1 off for me x
1 lbs on . And the weekend coming we are going away for short break. So might not lose next week either.
Fab losses guys! Keep them coming
I have been hiding from the scales for weeks since my holiday (all inclusive), friends wedding, niece being born, meals out etc etc and I've gained 8.5lbs taking me 4lbs over my target. My aim is to shift that 4lbs next week but definitely by the week after. Currently hanging my head in shame!!
I shall update the chart tomorrow as it's far too hot to be messing about with laptops. I am now fully back on plan and have my head in the game. Just about to do a food order and plan my food for the week. Feeling energised! Xx
didnt weigh in this week as I was too ill to go
home scales are on the way down so I might hit target next week (I live in hope)
Hi Sarah!
Lost 4.5lbs this evening! Hurrah!
Well done everyone the chart is looking great!
Hi,
Didn't make it to Boots this week to weigh myself (hectic weekend!). Can't imagine it was good, the whole of last week was completely off plan so I wouldn't be surprised if it was a gain!
Chuffed, a whole pound off! 13'4 now.
OMG sorry. Fell off the wagon a bit (a lot) STS last week and -1lb this week. Gawd knows how!
Back on it now.
