[karnak]

just checked my new book. They are listed as free foods on ee and green but they are not superfree :sigh:

Sorryeee everyone, they are included in a recipie for Super speed soup that I got from my C, they certainly (especailly the pearl barley) make the soup more palitable

 

[rialrees]

No worries karnak! I only learn through things like this. reading in a book just doesnt stick in my head

The soup sounds yummy though! Will have to try it out (especially when i get my slow cooker. yum!)

 

[karnak]

I add some Garam Masala and fresh coriander to it and its really nice.

At Chrismas I also discovered, low fat cottage cheese blitzed with smoked salmon trimmings a little lemon and black pepper, - free, and very yummy (if you like fish) on carrot sticks. No super free or super speed in it but yummy all the same

 

[rialrees]

mmmmm sounds lush. And the carrots (and maybe peppers, cucumber and celery sticks) could count for the superfree anyway! quids in methinks!

 

[karnak]

I never thought about all the veggies that I use to dip in, wonderful, another reason to eat more of it

 

[melh]

My veg stew was yummy!!!! I enjoyed it so much i felt the need toc ome on here and share. I'm having a hungry day today (due to lack of sleep last night). I'm pleased to say my veg stew was delicious and packed full of superfree veg and a small handful of lentils to thicken.
I literally chopped all the veg threw it in the pan with 2 stock cubes a tin of toms and mixed herbs. I'm going to make another pan full at the weekend.
It's really helped me get through the day without going over my sins. I've had 11 sins so far today. I've used more than yesterday but i'm pleased not to have given in and gorged on bread and crisps!

[rialrees]

Stew sounds delicious, do you have to soak the lentils first over night or just a couple of hours. Well done on not gorging on bread and crisps xx

Hello All

Can I join you please? I was aiming for another 68lbs but if I go for the 84lbs that will take me to the weight I was for years, a nice round 10 stone, great thread, thank you in anticipation of a "yes" to join. I have also been cheeky and added my name to the list!

Of course you can xx

Morning everyone...

My SF planned for today

Banana
Apple
Orange
Cucumber
Onion
Carrots
Turnip
Sprouts
Cabbage

A better list than yesterday and I will update if it changes.

Hope everyone has a good day xxx

Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

Hoping it's 4 lbs or more for you sugar x

What did you make with the turnips, sprouts and cabbage?

Woohoo lots of peeps joining in . 0.5 off for me, happy with that this week - cancels out last weeks gain

Congratulations for your loss here's to lots more losses coming our way soon x

Ok I gained 1 lb this week..... And I have to declare it so I realise the error of my ways.... Onwards and downwards from here xxxx

Well done for owning up to the gain, it's only a teeny weeny one and I know you will be able to lose that by this time next week.. I've promised myself that any gains will be declared ! Lol it's the only way I'm going to lose weight..

Superfree today

Grapefruit
Banana
cabbage
lettuce
tomato
cuecumber
onion

Well done on the SF x

Hi all,
I'd like to join the six stone thread please. Prior to xmas i joined slimming world online and lost 9 pounds but unfortunately I put on 6 3/4 lbs over xmas. I've not done a week since the gain but decided to join at the local group instead of online and had my first weigh in last night. Luckily i have lost 3 pound of my xmas gain so far this week and it was an evening weigh in. So i'm starting at 15 stone 4 1/2 pounds. I'd like to get to 9 1/2 stone so i've a long way to go.
I'm feeling motivated but i'm really hungry today... so going to go and make a huge pan of free veg stew.
Mel

Hi Mel

Stew sounds yum. I've never made a stew.. I should shouldn't I?

I have posted this link to try and help everyones motivation for the challenge ahead. Its my son and he lost 7 stone in 2011 with SW, and took just 6 months to do it. He did not starve himself just followed the plan, potato wedges and SW chips nearly every day. When he first showed me what hew was going to eat I could not believe it would work.
http://www.chris-spann.co.uk/wp-cont.../449752568.jpg

Now, I am also on SW, started at 16.10 last year and now 15.5, and after reading this post have to face the fact that I too have 6 stone to lose.

SF for today -toms, parsnips, carrots, peppers, peral barley lentils, split peas, onion and baked beans. Lettuce, more toms, spring onions.

Exercise - I bought an exercise bike on Monday, did 15 mins to start on monday night, then 25 mins on Tuesday night, (did not get any done last night, had to go and sort my mother out, she is disaabled with kidney failure and diabetes), but plan for another 20 mins at least tonight.

I hope its OK I have added myself to the list

Hi Karnak, and welcome to the gang!

Will read the link you posted, but a big congratulations to your son.. That's a fantastic result in such a short time!

Janeeeeeeeee well done! Cracking start to our challenge! 6 stones is nothing if u carry on this way xxx

I add some Garam Masala and fresh coriander to it and its really nice.

At Chrismas I also discovered, low fat cottage cheese blitzed with smoked salmon trimmings a little lemon and black pepper, - free, and very yummy (if you like fish) on carrot sticks. No super free or super speed in it but yummy all the same

Oooo cottage cheese and smoked salmon.. I love smoked salmon.. I could eat it every day...

There's a pate on the website that I saw that I'm defintely going to try.. Smoke salmon, quark, seasoning, parsley and lemon juice.. Blitz it and voila. I hope it's delicious.. Especially if u put some Philly light in it... Make some crudités and it'd be delicious!

Exercise: err.... I missed swimming this morning due to sleeping late... I could do more tomorrow but dont want to push it. also finding it hard to motivate myself after work..

There's loads of exercises around but at this time of night I'd rather be curled up under a fleece, especially in the winter.

Hi everyone!

Hope you don't mind me joining here ?!
I have previously (in the 18 months) managed to lose 2 and a half stone on slimming world, I got impatient and dabbled with slimfast/ww etc but these proved unsuccessful for me. Yesterday I (finally) re-joined slimming world and I'm back and motivated to do this!
I think I've failed before because I always lose the first week determination after I lose 10 or so pounds... so this time I need to be committed to go the whole hog!
I was browsing the threads and saw the '6 stone to lose' and was all yayyyy found you guys!
So here I am!

Can someone explain the twice weekly challenges to me?! Are they food/exercise related?!

My starting weight as of yesterday is 16 stone 3 and a half pounds! So 6 stone off will take me to 10 stone 3 and a half pounds! YIKES!!!!!!!
