Ummm... Waffles! I love waffles!
Me Too! Loves them waffles. Had them twice this week, normally maybe I get a waffle every few years. I drowned them in butter and syrup, it's really sick, but I do. Swimming.
First waffle was at an IHOP. It was okay, rather an odd color but tasty enough. They had 4 syrups, original flavored pancake syrup (something along those lines), pecan maple flavor, strawberry and blueberry.
The second was at Perkin's, I like that place better all around. Waffle was good and real maple syrup, or so they said. Plenty of butter.
Filled my waffle quota for a while, can't eat like you're on vacation all the time.

We laughed about what our waffles would cost if we ate them out - with very good ingredients, plus a recommended (on rfc) $15 for a regular-sized bottle of organic syrup - with the below ingredients. Heres for 4 waffles -- I ate 1, DH ate 3.
2 eggs 1 cup sour cream 1/4 cup butter 1 cup buttermilk
1-1/2 cups ap flour 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 3/4 tsp baking soda
The usual instructions. We baked at 5 on our Waffle Iron (Belgian). Just curious, what do IMOP waffles cost per waffle now-a-days? Dee Dee
What does the sour cream do for the waffle, Dee? I like very crisp waffles with a very tender interior. Oh, I also prefer regular waffles over the Belgium style.

But myself I'm finding the last 25 lbs of the imposed 95 lbs loss order a very hard and slow thing to do.
Back in 1979-80 I lost 93 lbs on a diet program very similar to WW. I found the last 20 or so lbs very slow, but it finally came off. Unfortunately, over the past 20 odd years I gradually let things get out of hand and regained most of that. It's definitely more of a challenge now that I'm 60 years old. I guess the most important thing is to persevere, regardless of the rate of progress. You're really doing well, so don't be discouraged. I have found that alternating a week of more severe dieting with a week of more lenient but controlled dieting to be very effective.
Yeah I cheat too...but only when I reach set weight goals I'm at 197 now next cheat won't happen till I reach 190. Hopefully before the end of March I can have a large serving of chicken fried rice or a chinese take out feast.
I think the occasional cheat is essential to long-term dieting and weight loss. For me, it helps me to jump right back on persevere with a vengeance.

First, they tasted yum-yum good. They WERE crisp outside and tender inside. I did have to turn up the griddle setting from 4 to 5 for this recipe; even though they weren't wetter. The first one was a little too soggy.
I owned a regular waffle maker/combo pizelle maker, but I'm not a regular waffle person, I guess. This one you turn it 180º after you put it in; I like that feature; and there is a pan if you put too much in it, it dribbles into the pan.

My mom had a GE waffle iron from the 1930s with cast iron grids that made fabulous regular waffles. Guess I got hooked on those. I wish I had never parted with that waffle iron, although my current one makes very good waffles. Hers had two separate rectangular grids and lids which made it very easy to overflow. Mine makes a single 9-inch round waffle. I've become expert in determining just how much batter to put in without it running over.

It was easy for me to run over on the last waffle I made this morning. Being greedy adding just those last two spoonsful put it 'over the top' and it came flowing out. It does catch the runoff on the pan, but still there is the slop running down the side of the waffle iron, itself. I should've thrown it out, but couldn't resist adding it. AAARRRGGHHHH! I hope I've learned my lesson. Dee Dee
