@ nlalamin04 Goshdarnit - I poked way back into the pages before asking but didn't find this recipe anywhere. Can you post it or point me in the right direction? Looks so delightful! =>
That looks delicious! @AustinRuadhain your lentil soup sounds amazing too, great ideas here! I just need to find some red lentils! I'd skip the butter too, I tend to eat low fat.0 -
Saturday Check in
Calories: probably over
water: over
Exercise: Packing
So, the lady who is buying our home came by today to look at it again and put down her earnest money. So, we feel very confident that there shall be no more glitches and this house is getting sold! I packed up 6 large boxes and over a lovely meatloaf and mashed cauliflower dinner shared a bottle of red with the hubby. I drank most of it!

Do we have a Slimpossibles Group? I was thinking it may be nice to have one to post recipes - so, a Slimpossibles Recipe Swap group, or similar. Private to this team - or even a F2F recipe swap group, private to the overall group. Recipes can get buried quickly in the monthly chat threads and then they're gone after that (I think?). I would be happy to create one or contribute once it's created, or be pointed to it, if it already exists.
This sounds like a great idea. Are you thinking of something outside of F2F/MFP - or another discussion thread dedicated to recipes?0 -

MFP has a "Groups" feature that can be public or private. I don't know much about how MFP works so maybe the F2F is already a group or...? I have never created one but I see them on the Community page. I thought it would be a good place to condense recipes so they don't get lost in the volume of awesome updates... =>0 -

@TeresaW1020 Yay, so glad things are going smoothly with selling the house! Sounds like you had a great reason to celebrate!
@raleighgirl09 A way to access recipes would be great! I'm usually on my phone and have no clue how to save links on an Android so I come on with my laptop to bookmark links. I need to do this before the lentil link gets buried!
@ka97 Two pounds on vacation isn't bad at all, you'll get it back down in no time!
@mrmcgrath Great loss! Good luck on saying goodbye to your oldest, it's tough to eat healthy when upset.

Saturday check in
Calories under
Exercise recumbent bike
I was able to increase resistance on the bike and managed to ride the full time! First time since vacation that I felt strong when working out as it's been more of plugging along. I took a day off the gym yesterday and that probably helped. I'm going to a BBQ tomorrow and my nephew is BBQing for the first time. I don't eat a lot of meat (usually just fish or chicken breast) but am feeling I'll have to at least try it as I don't want to hurt his feelings, he's only 10. Things you do for people you love!2 -

This morning's weigh in was a shocker. I had a smaller loss last week, and I expected about the same this week. I was more active this week while still maintaining the same calories, so perhaps that accounts for the huge drop. I stepped on the scale twice to make sure it was correct.
Woohoo!0 -

I get it! Portion control will be key for you. He’ll see you are eating it and enjoying it but also staying true to your goals.1 -

Damn vacation!
We’ve got your weight entered. Ditto on the damn vacation statement - 3.8 for me. I tried to keep moving and make good choices but I really had such an awesome time with friends and family that I let the weight gain pass. That time away was so important.
On the plus side last year on vacation I gained way more than this year so I think I was doing something right. Have a great week!0 -

Hi there!
I get red lentils either at a health food store (Natural Grocer of Whole Foods) or at a local Asian/Indian imports market.
Here's a recipe for that Smoky Refried Bean Soup. It's wonderfully quick and easy (about 10 minutes of prep, 20 minutes of cooking). Another thought -- if you don't have/want chipotle chili powder, I think Liquid Smoke would also work well in this recipe (and it's inexpensive and easy to find at a standard grocery market, at least in central Texas).
