Guest guest Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Hi, my name is Jackqueline, from Brisbane Queensland Australian, 45 married to Ross for 25 years we had four kids, now only two live at home. Am way over weight, in my 20's was 65kgs (about 140 pounds) now in my 40's weight in at 117 kgs (258 pounds), have blood sugar issues also. I have a friend who is a Vegan and she beleives that if I changed my diet the weight would come off easier as my system is not in tip top shape. Found your Group and thought that I would seek some guidence about how to change my lifestyle and get heathier in the process. I have two Crockpots which are on the go most of the time, my hubby works nightshift, and I work during the day so I don't want to spend what little time I have with my hubby in the kitchen cooking. So everyone I need your help. Thats a little about me; looking forward to cooking. Jackqueline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Hi Jacqueline, Welcome to the group. There are some great recipes in the files of this list you might want to try. I use my crock pot all the time. I normally use recipes from this list, ones I've " created " , or a really good vegan slow cooker cookbook entitled, " Fresh From the Vegetarian Slow Cooker " . I love the ratatouille and lasagna recipes in this book but there are many others that are really good too. If you're trying to lose weight (as many of us are), you might also want to try the Fat Free Vegan list. You can find it on also. It's a really good group as well. Many of the recipes that are posted or in the files can be adapted to a crock pot. Again, welcome to the group and good luck with your weight lose. God's Peace, Gayle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 I have to agree with Gayle. I too have that book and think it's excellent. Her other book, " Vegan Planet " , while not slow cooker oriented is also excellent. She uses ingrediants that are easily available and the recipies are accessable. Good luck!! Enjoy!!
