Bacalao a la Vizcaina needs to be cooked before consumption. its almost like a fish casserole, serving it can be like a curry with rice. The Mojama de Atun is dry cured fish which is served thinly sliced, very similar to the way they slice the meats. Where I worked we served it with toasted baguette and a tomato dip (with…

Thank you that will help for now Other than that I have to sit and input it in his as well as my iPhone Maybe they will change this for future users

if they are digital they should have some sort of reset button! On my kitchen digitals i have to level them out and hold a button down to 0 it so i would say bathroom scales have the same principle! Consistent readings are what i mean. but i am trying to go for exact as nowhere in my house is bloody level!!!

Everyone is different! For instance I should be eating 1850 cals to maintain my weight and so for loss i am to eat 500 less (i currently take in 1300). I have done this for 2 months and not exercised anymore than i used to (which is none) and i have lost 6.6kg (in my terms over 1 stone) medication can play a major part in…

I go to my healthcare provider (UK) as they have digital scales used for accurate measuring for the ole injections and things. I am allowed to use them whenever i want and it gives me a print out also which can help you keep a record. I wouldn't trust any bathroom scales as they can be adjusted by floor levels and the…

Thanks guys for some really top ideas. When i have more time i will try that cauliflower one without prior knowledge given to my daughter may well be a way to get veggies in her!!! I am going to opt for a normal pizza dough but replacing some of the white flour for wholemeal and making it as thin as possible I have made…

Thanks everyone, I do log mine as i have milk in my tea and 1 sugar still in coffee so it all adds up to me. Also i have the occasional cider and boy was i shocked how many calories i was necking!!!

Wow, how to start an argument!!!! Why don't people just do what they do and get along!!! I think this is a topic that should never have been started as are we not all here to achieve one thing - Lose Weight it shouldn't matter how we each do it surely.

I use this site as it has some really good recipes and it also breaks it down into the different values www.3fatchicks.com/diet-recipes

Mines not unique but not seen it here yet, Donna - means to be a lady ha ha ha ha i have never laughed so much - me a lady!!!

It depends how permanent you want it all to be. I have had a child, been sterilised, tried Implanon (messed me up), tried depo and have been told now been on it too long, can't take pills i forget them, the coil sounds bloody sadistic and quite frankly i don't like the idea of it. so we hit a crossroads what to do!! i have…

Thanks to all who have posted, i feel more inspired each post. I wish i had kept this up the first time round as i would be so far ahead now!

Cool, i was under the assumption that if i exercise then that's more calorie burning off my eventual weight-loss!! Happy days!! Oh here's a share for people looking for low-cal recipes, i have used a few and they aren't half bad actually! http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-recipes/ Good luck one and all

Another snippet is to add lentils to say chilli or stew or casserole as this not only bulks the meal up it is well hidden amongst the other ingredients. if your anything like me you can't stand the darn stuff!! I would say get the tinned ones that are soaked already or you will spend hours preparing them

This is a low cal version of Mushroom Stroganoff it is still creamy and delicious, i love it and strangely enough so does my 11yr old fussy *kitten* child!! To make 2 servings: kcal 300g (10 oz) fresh mushrooms 60 15g (1/2 oz) dried porcini mushrooms 48 1 small onion, sliced 29 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced 4 15g (1/2 oz)…

You can add me too if you like, the more the merrier!! And good luck with it all!
