yeah its a bit tricky but worth the effort when you get it right eh?

you're very welcome hun xx

 

[lucky3]

yes definitely, didn't taste like smash at all. i ended up doing it in a metal flan tin, baked v hot for 10 mins, turned it over, baked it again, then turned the oven off but left it in to dry out, then when i made the pizza it stayed in whilst the overn warmed up, it looked so nice!!

i was thinking you could prob use the base to make a sw quiche and little tarts?? i am quite excited thinking of it !!

 

[NickyT75]

yeah ive heard a couple of people saying they use it for 'pastry' but I prefer lining the quiche tray with slices of ham..... majorly yummy & much less hassle than the smash xx

 

[lucky3]

i've used ham and veggie ham, both nice but variety is the spice of life

i lost 2 and a half this week it was a morning weigh so prob not really quite that much but still

 

[NickyT75]

well done Lucky!

I stayed the same weight but I guess its better than putting some on xx

 

[lucky3]

Yep it is Nicky
Was just thinking of you as I had a yummy pizza for lunch, 1/2 syn as it had a morrisons sausage on, delicious! Then I made a lemon curd tart with smash pastry! Was nice too.

Congratulations lucky.

I had 2lb off this week.

Has anyone tried any new recipes? I tried the diet coke chicken last night. I heard people saying how gorgeous it was. It wasnt fabulous but it was nice enough.

 

[lucky3]

i haven't tried anything new for a while, must make something out of the new mag

Hello all,

I'm considering joining SW. I can't get to the meetings (live in a very rural area) so was considering doing it online.

There is also an option for online membership with some books included. Do you think these books + 3 month online membership is enough to get the principles and do it alone?

I only ask because £20 month is quite expensive and as they don't have an app to use the food diary etc i'd rather do it on paper once i've got the hang of it.

I also want something that can change the way we eat long term.

ANy advice/tips?

do you think 'the books' (food optimising and body magic) are the books you get/buy at meetings? if so, whats included?

 

[Lisa84]

Yup honey u get those at your first meeting.

Are there no groups near where u live? Xx

 

[Lisa84]

2lbs down this week im dead chuffed coz ive decided to stop goin to meetings so im doin this all on my own now xxx

 

[NickyT75]

well done Lisa!

LPF - there is a food diary on the website hun xx

 

[LPF]

The nearest group for me is 25min drive away and on a work night so I know I'd never make it.

I would do the food diary online but I know I'm restricted with the laptop as Evan trashes it as soon as he sees it and climbs all over!

I'd rather have paper info to refer to and jot it down really.
