    We all had chicken and stir fry veg but I cooked mine separately in just soy and fish sauce and had a bit of cauli rice, they had protein noodles with theirs. It's surprising how 200 calories of real food can fill you up and yes, its nice to chew :) Hope you have a great weekend.

    @FaeFaeFiFi the rhubarb and custard was nice, we ordered a few random one offs to try and this was one. Its strange how I'm enjoying all the sweet things now, at first I found them way to sweet. I'm slowly building up a list of likes and it doesn't include much savoury stuff o_O

  193. Mazza

    Ketosis with Celb Slim?

    If you are sticking to the plan and losing weight, I wouldnt worry about weeing on a stick to confirm why. Can see though if you are not losing (and havent cheated) why they might be useful.
  194. Mazza

    week 6 weigh in (no CS this week)

    Well done you thats fantastic!:D Yes I think 3-4 pounds from now on would be realistic.
  195. Mazza

    Agree with you Howdy, you would probably only use a few of them.

    ideas for sweet snacks

    Glad you enjoyed it Linzois, sounded lovely!
  218. Mazza

    How is everyone doing????

    The idea is to not go hungry so the 2 -3 hour is just a guide, whatever works for each of us eh! we are all loosing so we must be doing something right!
  219. Mazza

    Main Meal/Meat

    You should have protein with your main meal, so either meat, fish, eggs or tofu. Maz x
  220. Mazza

    wk 2

    Have you tried putting some coffee into the latte shake. The first time I tried one i had to recheck the packet because it just tastes like a weak chocolate one. And the beef soup tastes and looks like the chicken one!!!!
  221. Mazza

    wk 2

    Blimey - I bet she didnt loose much weight! lol
  222. Mazza

    wk 2

    Good luck with week 2 Sharon, are you going to keep having the atkins bars? Not fair that the aussies seem to know more than us re snacking is it? We need more info!!! Maz x
  223. Mazza

    How is everyone doing????

    Hope day 2 goes well for you x
  224. Mazza

    How is everyone doing????

    Hi all You MUST snack girlies! you need to keep your metabolism going by eating (or drinking a shake) every 2-3 hours. Happy snacking. Maz
  225. Mazza

    ideas for sweet snacks

    Yes basically lol There are some allowed dairy products but nothing with chocolate in unfortunatly.
  226. Mazza

    sharons wk 1 weigh in

    You could try ditching the atkins bars as they are not part of the allowable snacks list. Replace them with some fruit or veggies from the list and see how that works.
  227. Mazza

    day 1

    You can do this and well done for starting! If you are hungry before your next shake - have an allowable snack. Good luck x

    Well done! Maz x
  230. Mazza

    ideas for sweet snacks

    Hi Linzois Sorry to burst your bubble but during the diet stage its only a dessert spoon of natural yoghurt. Then moderate carbs when on maintenance. Sorry
  231. Mazza

    ideas for sweet snacks

    Berries, mango or a pear - cant think of anything much more exciting than that im afraid!
  232. Mazza

    banana

    Must be all the sweetner in them - try and make your own with the fruit and natural yoghurt.
  233. Mazza

    Mazza's 1st official weigh in

    Fanks :D
  234. Mazza

    Soya Milk ??

    If you are buying one I dont think they would be allowed as they have a lot of milk in them. We are only supposed to have milk enough (soya or otherwise) for 3 teas or coffee's. Supppose if you make one yourself and use all your milk and no more in one go it would be ok. Maz
  235. Mazza

    banana

    Check the label for the carb content per 100 grams, five or lower is low carb. Will be ok for maintenance if so - but the good book says whilst on the diet a dessert spoon of low fat natural yoghurt can be added to fruit.
