    I had to nip into town and while I was there I went into boots who had some weight watchers scales on special offer, reduced from £59 to £24 because the box was a bit battered, so I bought them. I haven't got on them yet though, it might be horrible:rolleyes:

    z i didnt find diclofenac helped me at all but it has to be better than the ibuprofen for the stomach do you find it helps you?

    They're OK. Aren't miracle workers by any stretch of the imagination - but better than aspirin.

    keren - thats fantastic, I'm SO proud of you :T:T

    Thanks elantan but she has tempted me into buyings some waffles now ;)

    Toto - keep the same scales (MSE :cool:) so that your weight loss is acurate. Even if they are out by a few pounds your weight loss wont be :D (Oopps - too late :rotfl:)

    Z - GARLIC, BREAD?!?!? Hmmmmmm ;);) (Well done on the loss though, maybe its the dicolfenac thats working ;);)

    Havent eaten much today - miserable bollox threw a strop coz I went to my dad's (I swear I have 3 kids sometimes ;)) :rotfl: so missed breakfast and lunch.
    Just had a yummy chicken pitta and if I get hungry later I'm gonna have beans & WAFFLES :eek:

    Right, I'm sticking to the diet so far but need a bit of advice if at all possible, I have stopped drinking coke full stop and its hard :o but I am drinking flavoured water (lemon and lime) its only got 0.1 calories in it but obviously its got sweetners in it and I just can't get the taste of these out of my mouth - what I want to know really, is will it pass, will I eventually become used to it?

    I can't drink tea without sugar so can't drink that and I am enjoying the flavoured water, very refreshing, its just the after taste.......................

    I'm just on plain water - on my 3rd pint so far.

    I have also cut out sugar in my tea. Used to take 2, then my hubby slowly reduced me to 1 :rolleyes:

    Strange thing is, I didnt like it with 1, prefer it with none.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
