My Mood: Rep Power: 21 Diet: Cambridge Diet | Heya Karen! Thank you, I really needed to - I'd done far too much picking while hubby was at work!!!!! lol - 6-8 miles is short for us!!! 10-15 is average and a long walk would be 20-25 miles which usually gives us a very happy, worn out hound who then sleeps contentedly for 2 days!!!!!! We're VERY lucky, living on dartmoor we not only have the moors but also the southwest coast path at our disposal too, love it!! Prob have some (cold) chicken salad - or maybe some (hot) chicken breast with some green veg, depends on how cold I am when we get to the pub! They do either for me though - am a queen of ordering off menu!! Especially when I'm off 790 and back on to the 1000 plan, I'll be back to a vegan diet again which means I really do order off menu!!!! But, for the moment, I'm not even vege as I dont eat quorn (it's a mould for crying out loud!!) and I HATE cottage cheese!!!!!! So chicken it is! |

My Mood: Rep Power: 21 Diet: Cambridge Diet | Ooooh. Well, the dress is absolutely fine, none of the sequins, cyrstals or pearls have dropped off.. And it smells lovely... But it hasn't made one scrap of difference to the marks... Not one..... Will give hand washing the marks in the bath a go - I have a thermometer we have to buy for work (neonatal intensive care) for checking the babies temps at home which I wont take back into work now, so will put a cover on it and then I can check the temp of the water!!! ( :lol: ) I'm suprised it hasn't made any difference actually - I literally COVERED the stains in heaps of vanish... |

My Mood: Rep Power: 21 Diet: Cambridge Diet | Just taken it out of the machine following re-washing it after its soak in the bath.... And it's PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There's not a single mark on it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I did was rub more vanish everywhere and put the train in a tepid bath (rest of dress was hung over a clothes horse) and put some more of the persil wool liquid in the bath too, left it for a couple of hours and then gently rubbed the stains off with a flannel - they just lifted as I rubbed them.. Then put it back in the wash and - it's clean!! I am so glad I did this now - for the sake of a bit of a vanish stick, about half a bottle of Persil wool and silk liquid and a morning spent transferring it from washing machine to bath to washing machine it's been absolutely worth it!!! Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww, that's my wedding dress out on the line! |

My Mood: Rep Power: 21 Diet: Cambridge Diet | lol - when I can fit back in it again!!!!!!! Another 6lbs will see me in it, 9 will get me back to the wedding day weight when it fitted like a dream!! Having said that though I'm not going to try it on again until I get to my goal weight and see what it's like then! |

My Mood: Rep Power: 21 Diet: Cambridge Diet | Hiya Lenny!! It's been a really mad mad couple of weeks and I've been really struggling with the diet.. Not CD but just sticking to it... But hubby and I decided last night that we both want to get back on track - he wants to lose half a stone and I want to lose a stone to get back down to where I was when I got married.. So we are both going to really get focussed and smaller (well, he wants to get back into his weights properly again so he'll be getting bigger again..  ).. I'm also very very much back on a vegan diet again, lots of yummy home cooked food - have a massive bowl of mixed beans soaking downstairs to make a lovely beany shepherds pie for tea!!How are you going Lenny? |

My Mood: Rep Power: 26 Diet: Cambridge Diet | Hey Sunflower, I have been struggling with CD since the honeymoon - my motivation has really gone now. I have been playing with the diet - couple of lbs on, then off, then on again  At the moment I am on an "off" and I have decided to move up through the steps and then move onto the Unit Diet for maintenance. No weighing and lots of free foods. I want to lose the last stone but it is so tough. Hopefully a new healthy eating plan will help me. I have been so anti-social with CD and we have lots of things coming up so I want to be able to eat again. Take care and good luck |
