Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

So do mine. I have 3 Dachshunds and they love getting special treats for their meals. I mean, dogs can't live on just the same boring old dog food day after day, can they?

I'll often buy chicken livers or gizzards from the grocery, as they usually sell them inexpensively in bulk, and cook it up for them. I also make 'natural' dog treats out of the livers. I take the livers and cut them into bite-size pieces, then put them on a baking sheet and stick them in the oven until they're cooked through and a little dried out. Then once they cool, I drop them into ziplock baggies and stick them in the freezer so they keep longer and just pull each dog out a piece or two of liver for their snacks.

thats a good idea about the chicken livers-I guess you could do that with any kind of liver-i have 2 packets in the freezer that I bought-then went off the idea. Mine like chicken wings too. !!

Today has been:-

Breakfast: 2 slices of Toast.
Dinner: Boiled egg salad.
Supper: Ham Salad sandwich.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

Hopefully without the bones

Boiled egg sandwich sounds interesting. How do you make yours? Usually I just slice a boiled egg and put it on bread with mayo or sometimes on a muffin or crumpet.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

Hi Linda, I didn't have boiled egg sandwich, I had Boiled egg salad?

But if I were to have a sandwich, I would usually boil the eggs, then mash them up with a bit of salad cream and a few bits of watercress or chopped chives in it.

Today:

Breakfast: Bran Flakes, soya milk.
Dinner: Chicken marinated in Ginger & Chilli, 2 R.Pots. cabbage & swede.
Supper: Sandwich

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

Oh! I completely read that wrong, haha. Yes, I love egg salad as well, good stuff. But I still do the sliced boiled egg on toast now and again.

I dropped 2 pounds a couple weeks ago and that's where it decided to stay. My weight hasn't budged in 2 weeks. Trying to lose weight when you're older is a pain in the butt!

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

I only lost half a pound this week--really disappointing as i thought I had done everything right--and done loads more walking--but my leader says that I should be eating more !! But I am worried about eating too much, in case I put on any weight. Its so strange as al my clothes are so much looser, and my measurements are reducing---but not the weight !

I guess it must be an age thing--I lost over 3 stone with Weightwatchers--but that was a long long time ago.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

I've not lost anything this week or any other week, I don't care though.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

I lost almost 6 stone (I started out at almost 16 stone) but, like Mariana, that was nearly 10 years ago. Things are waaaaaaaay different now, especially with me going through menopausal stuff. My doctor, who is the same age I am (I'm 52), said "Losing weight at our age is like rollerskating uphill."

She's not kidding.
