Hi guys
Really wanted to say thanks for all the wonderful help and support on this site. I found it when googlong for info on a phone and ended up getting a great deal. Then I found this section and have been glued ever since.
I have cut down on my shopping bills, started eating home cooked food and as a result Ive lost 9lbs ( my family have lost 4lbs too).
Every time I post I get lots of really helpful replies and already feel apart of this great site.
Cooking a coconut rice pudding in the slow cooker which I got last week and pulled out the bread maker to have lovely hot fresh bread that lasted 10 minutes.
So just to say thanks again :money:

LOL- I have the other problem. I used to eat home cooked food anyway, but since I've become OS I've bought a breadmaker, but worse still, I've started making puddings
That's my biggest downfall. I think I've put on about 9 lbs :rotfl:

Me too! We've cut our grocery shopping from over £400 to less than £200 in a month through budgeting, using up the masses of stuff we had lurking in cupboards, taking lunch to work etc. We're eating better and have lost 6lb since Christmas. We're decluttering and have made over £100 this month on eBay - which we've used some of to buy a slow cooker and a bread maker - which in turn is saving us a fortune as we don't have to heat up our very inefficient electric Aga! Next step growing veggies.
Thanks all. :T0 -
Whatever you do, don't read the recipes thread then or you'll be putting all the weight back on:rotfl:Everything's so yummy :rolleyes:Post Natal Depression is the worst part of giving birth:p
