    Thanks QOC and EMILY RACHEL. I guess that's an extra packet of crisps or something like that calorie wise. Woohoo.

    If anyone has tried this diet before, is it wise to go to the gym on a diet/fast day? Or would that be more likely to make someone ill?

    I do my fast days when i'm on 12 hour nights and it doesn't seem to effect how I work or make me more tierd.

    Afternoon all!

    I have some BM and PP confirmations for you, done today :beer:

    L'Oreal Youth code Lumiere Serum 30ml (white & silver packaging) - not the one Fuzzgun posted about before but a different one, £24.99 in Sains compares to £15 in A's. I gambled on it as they didn't have the other Youth Code in the black & pink box.

    Also the £15.49 Gillette Proglide Power Silver Touch Razor in T's compares perfectly to the £5 one in A's. Not sure if this was confirmed as working or not but worked for me today. If you can't find the £15.49 one, there is a manual version of the silver touch razor for £9.99 that compares to S at £4.99 and A at £5.00. Also confirmed today!;)

    And new today I believe, the Venus Olay Gillette ladies razor in the gold box that's £10.99 in T's will compare on PP to the new A's price of £4.00! :T:T:T It's also £10.99 in Sainsbob but I haven't bought it there, all things being equal it "should" give a BM of £6.99 too but don't forget you need to spend £20 to get the BM.

    Thank you smartie:A

  • Evening all :hello:

    Miles behind, RL getting in the way again, hope I haven't missed anything of too much interest!

    I have managed 2 pints of water today, which I know probably isn't really enough, but it's a lot for me! Haven't got much further with the book yet either, but I will get there.

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Ok so now I'm in a panic , just accepted an offer on my bungalow :)
    Now I have to find a new smaller one .
    Son and girlfriend are on holiday in Florida at the moment - where they first met 5 years ago on their university placement - Son proposed last night and luckily she said YES!! Think I may need to join in the diet - although got 2 years to lose weight - they don't do anything in a hurry!!!

    Congratulations to both of you:T:T:j:j

    For the Elite Fat club wannabees or the pros - just seen something called

    Slim Noodles advertised in a magazine. ONLY 8 calories:T:j:T

    Says Japans best kept diet secret - great taste (well they would say that) :p

    and add your favourite flavouring.

    Available at Holland & Barrett and Ocado

    Might be worth a try for fast days especially :)
