    I agree with your methodology , just reduce your intake tomorrow, real life includes going to dinner and having the odd indulgence and I guess if we start with the whole I have gone over my points and therefore failed overall mentality then we are not going to get any where fast. The food...

    How Accurate is WW Online Calculator?

    Hi, thank you so much for that, I just pointed some stuff like crumpets and they are coming up about half a point lower than the other calculator - which doesn't seem like much but I guess it all adds up throughout the day. Thanks again I will use this one until I can get one ordered from WW x

    Guenevere's Food Diary

    Hi hon, glad you had a good time at the party - the great thing about WW I'm finding is that I can pretty much eat what I want but it forces me to think about the food choices I am making and encourages to moderate my eating - I practically became a hermit when doing LL - the looks I would get...

    How Accurate is WW Online Calculator?

    Hi, thanks for the reply, I have a blackberry unfortunately, I think I may need to invest in a proper WW calculator as I suspect the the online one is giving me incorrect values for the food I am consuming...

    Disappointed!!

    Really, really well done on the quitting smoking, I started WW this week and was supposed to have given up the fags too alas I felt I couldn't do both at the same time so your doing doubly well - trying to lose weight is hard enough but to o it and give up smoking at the same time is excellant.:)

    Hi, I am not a big fan of quorn, mainly because I don't like the texture or taste of meat (hence being a veggie) so the thought of something that replicates the taste and texture of meat doesn't appeal to me, but I have used it to cook for my husband when we have run out of meat and he...
