Well, you're still a bit short I'm 5'7'' And I remember 'glasshoppah' :rotfl:

Don't worry about this weekend, don't feel guilt for an exceptional celebration! Just feel lucky No doubt it's well deserved. I have a liking for kharma, maybe your good work here helped some in the cosmic way of things?

No shykins, you're not the only one, I remember the grasshoppers too:o

I'm 5'8" and my ideal weight (or at least it used to be up until 2 years ago) is 10st 11lb. I never seemed to struggle to stay there. However, this is my 3rd day of eating just meat and eggs (and a bit of mayo to add taste) but I still don't seem to be losing any weight ( had a peek this morning). I will stick to this until Tuesday as that is my official weigh day:rolleyes: .

Perhaps my ideal weight has increased a bit , after all, its 2 years since I gave up smoking and I am closer to the big FOUR/ZERO this year:(

I remember it and i believe it was glasshopper:rotfl:

Am a weeny bit disappointed in the taste of the oopsies as they are rather eggy (what did i expect with eggs) and is a glorified skinny omelette but do make a good sarnie.
Or did i do summin wrong

Also, dont know if its a regional thing or whether they distribute nationally but Tesco do a fabulous Welsh hot chicken curry called Tan y Ddraig and its only 4.8g per 100g, it is really popular here and is delish, you can find it in the chiller dept and at the mo is two for £3, normally £2.30 summin each

Same here I've never dipped below 11 stone though, and doesn't look like I will now either (can you believe that I've put on 4lbs doing Induction???).

I think this weight is quite easy to maintain, and I'll be happy with it if I can convert it all into muscle. Right now I look good (the wolf-whistles and cat-calls I attract walking 10 mins down the road are testament to that!) but my limbs are still too chubby to look good in some of the outfits I love

:rotfl: sicko :rotfl: Only joking! Not made the low carb icecream but did have chocolate pancakes earlier Just added a little cocoa to the mix and filled em with the mascarpone choc dessert Rather nice. Had to eat em as they were made so had tea standing up. Well stuffed after, mind:)

Good discovery re pancakes - After you've put the batter in the pan and they seem done on 1 side, stick em under the grill to firm em up before flipping. Makes it so much easier as they don't rip or otherwise resist your advances with the spatula
