Sorry to hear of your problems Yvette. I know somewhere in the booklet that came with your TMX (I haven't got it with me so I can't check, but it's not the EDC) there is a list of different error messages, see if you can track that down and hope it helps. Other than that I suspect it's a call to your consultant or HO.

Hi Gillian and welcome. Glad you're enjoying yourself so much and the kids obviously appreciate your efforts. Loads of recipes here for you to experiment with - a never-ending supply, in fact. The trouble is, once you find the ones you like you tend to stop experimenting, my rule is to always try at least one new recipe a week.

Denise, it's hard to conceive of just how large Australia is until you travel here. Going over 'The Nullarbor', which is the ONLY southern route from west to east, the places marked on the road maps are simply petrol stations, not towns or villages (or they were when we last crossed approx. 20 years ago, it may have changed now). That is indicative of just how remote these places are. I should clarify, when I say petrol stations, they are called Road Houses here and you can load up on food and often they have some fairly basic accommodation units as well.
Once again, I may be a bit out of date on what they are like now, but this is just to give you an idea of the enormity and emptiness of this country. It's really funny when you go to Europe after being in the outback for any length of time - the number and choice of roads to get from A to B is quite bewildering and overwhelming - the best comparison is probably in the Scottish Highlands - just the A9 and not too much else!

There was some discussion about this not so long ago, but nothing specific to the TMX is available as yet.

Is Olive Oil an appropriate oil? Shouldn't you use a machine oil (perhaps a sewing machine oil?)

Hello Anne, and welcome to the forum. The TMX is a great machine and I hope you make the decision to go with it. A lot of our members have been to and / or currently attend Weightwatchers and I am sure someone will get back to you with some help and ideas. Despite appearances, not EVERY recipe is fattening and it is a matter of just working your way through them and finding those that are suitable for you and your requirements.
The one thing that all the recipes have in common, though, is that they are all home made and, although some may utilise commercially manufactured product/s in part of the meal, on the whole, a TMX prepared meal is better for you than most alternatives and you have ultimate control of what you eat.
Good luck with your diet and your decision re. the TMX.

The rug looks great - I love slate floors.

That's the same recipe that I've been using since I was a kid a great many years ago! Really easy and works so well.

Good to hear that you are a vegetarian as well, Bedidassi, it means I don't have to think about whether I can somehow convert your recipes into a vegetarian version so that we can eat them. Australia is a much better country for vegetarian food now than it has been in the past (except in the countryside where they still have a very strong meat based diet and vegetarians are often regarded as some sort of strange species of humanoid!) so the next time you come you should be able to enjoy some wonderful food.

We recently had a friend visiting from Luxembourg and he said that even the other side of the city was a long way to go for the local people!! You do get used to long distances here in Australia

Hi Anne and welcome to the forum. Like you, I never made pastry until the TMX came into my life, now it's a breeze and I never think twice about making it (except when I look in the mirror - that often has the power to curb my pastry urge!). Happy TMXing

An light day's cooking for me, one batch of LSA, butter, some CADA and worcestershire sauce. All quick and easy.

Hope your consultant can help you today. My fingers are crossed for a quick resolution as I can imagine just how disappointed you are.

Made a batch of this yesterday (minus anchovies) - ran out of white vinegar so resorted to red wine vinegar and it has turned out beautifully. It's really easy to make, but it does give off a fairly lively aroma - certainly makes your eyes water and clears your sinuses! I've got to admit, it's a little too fiery for me, but my DH loved it. Also gave some to my neighbour as he loves things with a bit of a 'bite' to it too. I'll probably give the rest of the bottles away to friends as well and make another batch later in the year.
