@Tiggermad, that’s awesome, losing 10Kg 😊🤩👏 Well done.I hear you on the siren call of things such as crisps and chocolate 😉
Have you seen the glucose revolution book? I’ve been following her principles for a couple of weeks and my cravings are definitely less. She said they would be but I was fairly sceptical 😉 Might be worth a try? 😊

Happy Evening all,Wow everyone is doing so well. I seem to have fallen off the band waggon and need to regroup. Its still quite icy / frosty and so haven't made it out for a run yet. I confess I did find a big bag of Christmas chocolate which is now gone (was naughty but nice!) and tonight had a bit more other chocolate sorry!!Having brunch at 11 is working well though and have discovered a new food love. Boiled egg on toast with houmous instead of butter, topped with spring onion. Yummy!Keep going all!!2026 financial goals & challenges!
