Hi there! I lost weight years ago on Slimming World, attending group regularly and following the original plan. I thought, if I can do that, I can do anything, and I went and signed up for an Open University course. Since then, I haven't stopped studying, and studying and weight loss don't...

Hello all, I started almost 2 years ago and have lost around 3.5st with Slimming World. I love the diet, mainly cos it isn't! I would have got to target a long time ago but spend a quarter of the year abroad and do not follow a healthy eating plan when I'm away. As a lifestyle it works for me...

When I got home tonight I was pretty hungry. Sunday is normally my food shop day but because of work I didn't get home until after the shops all close so had to do a bit of cupboard cooking. I knew I had some chicken in the freezer so knew I wanted to incorporate that then I looked in my...

Let me first say if you are thinking about submitting a recipe and feeling nervous, don't be. This is a best practice on how to make it findable, but it is not the be all end all, just submit it and I will add in anything that might be missing :) One Thread Per Recipe! This is the most...

I have to admit that I am VERY fortunate that I don't really have a sweet tooth. Now and again though I do have a hankering for something not savoury. My 10 year old daughter reminded me very quickly about a recipe she loved that I made when I was on Dukan previously - Toffee Muffins. She's...
