Got the nail varnish thingy too. Tried the eye brightener do-dah and OH said he noticed an improvement in my dark circles immediately. (p'raps he was after something!) Cream smells a bit though but sinks in easily and non greasy -the first eye cream i've ever liked. Hope we find out what company it is because i really like it....any clues as to who LF are?

I've emailed them tonight as think they have a bug in their programme. The Lifestyle section had more to complete - so went through, filled in bits - clicked save - went back to main screen and it was still flashing. Went into profile again and it was same section but...when I checked - quite a few of my answers were changed! Some had two answers in a section like flat sheet and fitted sheet - another had gone altogether (clothes size) etc etc Saved the changes - same thing happened again although the ? mark wasn't flashing but I thought I would just check.

So beware....
Will post here if I get a reply to my email. Its not flashing anymore but I cant face going back in for the fourth time to see if its changed again!

I'm doing the diet patch trial too and have put on weight!! I think it's because I'm thinking so much about what i'm eating I'm having more choc and crisps etc than normal. I don't normally register what I eat much, and having to do the weighing and diary is making me so conscious of it all that I want to eat more!

Congratulations for losing, is it the patches or something else do you think?

I haven't lost any weight either, but luckily I haven't put on any either!

(I've had some unusually 'social' days lately, so loads of going out, which I hardly ever do! Why is it so hard to avoid pudding when you're at a restaurant??:rolleyes:)

I think the patches are playing a small part in it...havent really changed my diet...never been one for snacks/crisps/chocolate....i probably wont lose anything now for the rest of the trial

I always thought it was obligatory? If you don't eat the pud you have to do the washing up.

I don't usually eat that many snacks either, it's just that there's a column on the form for snacks so I just have to eat some to complete it properly!!!

I knew there was a reason! Glad to know I'm not putting myself at risk of ending up doing the dishes and that I'm faithfully filling in my diet diary too! :beer:

Well done you!!!!!!!!!

the first week I put on a couple of pounds then the 2nd week I went back to my start weight - I am yet to get on the scales to send it off tomorrow and im not looking forward to it as its been the bank holiday and I drunk far too much and ate too much rubbish!!!
