    Just reading all your FAB weight losses and trying to motivate myself to re-start SW tonight. I keep putting it off and telling myself I can do it at home as I still have all my stuff from when I did it before but apart from cutting down on portion sizes I don't really.

    For me losing some weight was such a very slow process, I never "do" big weight losses and I got in such a muddle with the EE when that came out.

    I've lsot 2lb!

    I'm not goign to classes but have downloaded some pdfs and kinda of making it up as I go along. Can I mix EE with the 'old' red and green days - so have 3 dyas of EE then a green day - hope so as thats what I'm doing today!

    Getting there with my breakfasts - had fat free yog with alpen and a nana today - so only 1 HE used.

    I am eating lots of eggs as we have hens - are they no longer free? What I read said max 10 a week. I'm having a mini crustless quiche made with 1 and lots of veg for a mid morning snack

    Eggs are free Rach:D They used to be super free but not anymore, you can still munch them to your hearts content though.

  • I'm so chuffed, I had to share it!

    Walked into town today and saw a beautiful dress, but thought it would never fit. It was the last one and they only had it in a 16 (have been size 18 -20 for about 17 years now). After dithering I decided to try it on and perhaps buy it, to motivate myself. Guess what - it fits perfectly!!!!!!

    THEN... on the walk home, which is all uphill, I managed without stopping 'to admire the view'! I was a bit puffed out, but so pleased.

    WI tonight, but I don't mind what the result is, as I can see / feel the difference now. I was all despondent at the weekend and felt that I was getting nowhere, so hopefully I'll get back on track now.

    Off to have a nice salad for lunch, with frozen Mulerlight for afters. Yum yum.

    Sure you already all know this but just in case - tonight I will be making single ingredient icecream. Basically you slice ripe bananas, freeze then whizz in the blender of food prcessor (straight from the freezer). You end up with a very creamy cold puree that is totally delicious and like the most banana-y icecream and free!!

    All this talk of frozen yog is making me want to get my ocecream maker out - if I used pureed raw fruit like banans, raspberries etc would they still be free? I know if I cook the fruit its not....
