    Morning everyone :santa2:

    daisy, I have 4lbs to lose, but less than 4 weeks to lose it, to reach my goal of losing a stone before Christmas!!
    I admit I do fully intend putting said stone back on over Christmas!! :o:rotfl:

    Dr_D_D, well done on the 3 inches off your waist :T

    Gers, good luck at the Dentist, rather you than me _pale_

    Menu for today:
    B - 2 egg cheese & mushroom omelette
    L - 2 low-carb crispbreads with butter & cheese
    D - bol with cauli/leek/garlic mush cheesiness

    Might make some of Mercy's chocolate buns if I have time this afternoon :drool:

    Have a good day all :santa2:

    I didn't think you had fur, festive or otherwise, methinks you must have stopped using your laser-hair removal thingy!! :rotfl:

    Hello lc'ers.. thinking about trying to lose some weight but not sure how yet.
    Just a couple of questions, is it true that eating lc seems to kill your cravings for sugar etc? And you dont feel hungry on it?

    S'bin another rubbish 10 hrs of work but it's done for a bit :rotfl:

    B - boiled egg, frankfurters and cheese
    L - spicy pork n veg stew
    D - Brie, ham, chorizo, cranberry n salad

    All tasty stuff!

    Am finding that I don't feel so hungry late on if I have enough during the day (no sweet cravings either). Also I'm simply on my feet, moving about all day and having to concentrate harder and for longer. Am hoping that this excessive activity will pay off but my new scales are out of bats so I really don't know :)

    Doesn't matter really, feel well n happy :j even though back aint right yet it's doable.

    Hope you too are well n happy, love you guys! :beer:

    Thank you!! :D

    But if I can put 8lbs on in less than a week (during October hols), then I think I can manage a stone over the Christmas holidays!! :o :rotfl: And yes, I am very much a piggywiggy lol!! :D

    The buns are made!! Started making them before Corrie but had to wait for the choc to cool, so finished them off afterwards. The smell is deeeeeeeeelicious but won't have any until tomorrow as I've already had 2 more crispbreads with my wine tonight!! :o
