Hey girls..

I have been doing slimming world for 2 weeks.

1st week I lost 7lbs! This week I have only lost 1lb. I am feeling a bit disheartened as I was really good aswell. Anyone any tips?

I made some cous cous cakes the other day they are free on green & extra easy. If anyone would like the recipe let me know as they were surprisingly nice!

Hi Magpie - welcome.
Massive congrats on that 1st week loss wowee - your body is just readjusting now and you never follow a huge loss up like that with another similar one unless you do a VCLD (lipotrim, cambridge etc) which are much harder to do.

Don't be disheartened - bet you have a fab loss again next week, loads of people wouldn't lose that in a month.

Would love recipe for the cous cous cakes please

You better Mrs Q? Hope Mikey been sleeping and letting you rest xx

Yep I get these too - how fab

I'm afraid I go top heavy on the B rather than the A and my group leader says if its working for me then ok - as long as I get at least 2 A choices.
I LIVE on hifi bars and alpen light bars (2 as a HE) but have started using half fat cheddar grated over pasta dishes etc as another A and fromage frais to make sauces creamier - also don't forget if you're eating your own body weight in muller lights like me - you're also getting calcium there too.

Or maybe toast midmorning with dairylea/laughing cow?

I'd quite like to find a free rice pud mix - spesh while my mouth is so bad - that would be piles of milk too eh

 

[MrsQ]

lemme see wat i can find
xx

 

[MrsQ]

here you go
50g Pudding Rice
30g Sweetener
550 ml Skimmed Milk
*350ml is a HEa you could syn the remaining or add water to make up to 550ml if you dont want to use both your HEa
Good Pinch of Nutmeg (or to taste)

Method

In to a pan empty the rice, sweetener and milk and a good pinch of nutmeg
Bring to the boil, stirring all the time ( this is important or it will stick)
When boiling, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed ( keep stiring often)
When you reach your desired consistency usually about 20 mins + serve and enjoy your rice pudding.

 

[pip holder]

Oh wow - back of the net!!
Theres me sorted - fankyooooo *rushes off to buy pudding rice*

 

[MrsQ]

[4magpies]

I will post my cous cous cake when I get home. I struggle eating a's. I usually have a babybel or laughing cow extra light on toast/bread instead of using butter!

Oh and I love alpen lights, the toffee choc ones are amazing asda always run out! Lol.
