[bettylollypop]

Hi hun, your curry sounds nice, is there a recipe for it in the recipe thread? xx

 

[KatyKaty]

Hi Bettu Lollypop - yeah the recipe I used is similar to this one:- http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-recipes/100749-sweet-potato-spinach-curry.html
Except I've tweaked it a little - added a few extras such as ginger and okra.

It's a really good recipe - try the basic and then tweak it to how you like it

Weigh in tonight, to be honest I'm fully expecting a little gain - been good for the last week (except a little blow out on monday - but still ok for the weekly syns) but i was quite bad the week before and haven't been weighed since two weeks ago.

Missed weigh in as I was moving back home after work (as I've been house sitting the last two weeks) and I just didn't get back in time.
Going to get on the scales at home tomorrow and then from now on I will weigh at home very friday morning. Can't really justify the £20 per month for SW classes anymore. I can do this though, when I first lost weight with SW (6.5 stone) the first 4 of it was done at home on my own.
