Hi Ladies,
I am just wondering if any of you can give me some recipes to help me lose weight? I have weighed myself this morning and was 88.5kg (195lb)...close to 20kg (44lb) more than I should probably be. I am trying to organise some times with my husband for me to go and do some Zumba and Personal Training but that isn't easy as he is a very busy Medical Intern. So for starters I thought I'd work on the food front.

I'm looking for recipes that are quick and easy (with two kids 3 and under I'm sure you can understand why) but also that are healthy, filling and yummy but without me wanting to go and find something greasy afterwards (as I have found a lot of salads seem to do).

I can find recipes in books but generally they have a few ingredients that I don't usually have on hand (which equals time and money to go and buy them).

If you have any ideas, that would be great :)
Thanks

Weight watchers has a few really good cook books called "5 ingrediant 15 min meals" they r really good recepies. Also use a crock pot. You just throw everything in it cooks all day an ur meals ready. I also look at www.foodnetwork.com hope that helps!
