Thanks for the tip! Have done it :-) Had a great day - loads of energy, didn't feel hungry for a second. Quick question - I ate the mackerel fillets as advised by Patrick Holford. But when I looked at the calories, they were a whopping 700 cals!!! Seems a scary amount. Should I be a bit...

So pleased for you! Must feel great to be getting positive feedback - but why is it we value the external so much more than the internal?! Never mind, you've done so well and deserve all the recognition in the world! Hope my weigh in (wed) goes so well!

Looks like a great day - might steal that menu for myself!! Hope you are feeling better x

Hiya, I've spent about a week getting to grips with GI/GL. I've read some books and found some recipes. My favourites are from the Patrick Holford Low GL Cookbook. I've lost a kilo doing it loosely, but now I'm ready to start properly. So here is today's menu: Breakfast: Porridge...

Please, please, please, please, SHARE!!!!

Hey guys, my low GI is going really well! I feel energetic and so much less hungry than I ever have on a diet before. Yesterday I had arranged to meet the girls at Pizza Express and as we weren't meeting till 8.15 I was starting to feel VERY hungry. I was chatting to my mum as I walked to...

Thanks Molly, your progress is inspirational! Something I wanted to ask you because I know it will come up again... How do you deal with things like eating out, or if someone in the office brings in cake? Many thanks

Looks very good but the point of Low GI is that you shouldn't be hungry. On the amount of food you are eating, I would be hungry. How is it working for you?

So, I decided to give low GI a go, because my dad's a GP and he was telling me it's the best diet and explained how the blood sugar 'spike' is what makes me CONSTANTLY HUNGRY and that's what makes me binge (well, that and my emotions, but that's another story. And not being hungry can surely...

I've just eaten lunch - it was MASSIVE. How will I lose weight eating this??? Sweet potato / baked beans / 2 quorn sausages / 3 babybell lights grated (HEA) / 2 eggs scrambled 4 Mullerlights 1 Alpen light (HEB) OMG!!!! HOW MUCH HAVE I EATEN?!?!?!

OMG I have just eaten 3 Alpen bars (my first ones ever) - am I going to be in pain for the rest of the day and night?!

What cute answers!! Unfortunately I can't go on the holiday by myself because for the first week we were going to stay with some of his family abroad and although they are really really lovely it would be just too weird to go there on my own. But my sweet cousin and her husband have offered me...

Congrats!! Have you been super-super good?? xx

Good idea - would definitely try to phone first. If they won't tell you that way then go - because it could impact your baby's health and that would be important. However it goes, come straight back here and post so that we can boost you back up if you need it! Good luck

Thanks everyone for the support! Well the comfort eating has begun, but I'm telling myself it's fine and I can eat whatever I need to as long as I stick to the free foods. So I have just devoured 2 mullerlight vanillas while waiting for my jacket potato with beans, 2 quorn sausages and 2 fry...

Thanks guys, it doesn't feel like that yet but I'm sure things will improve. So far today: (GREEN) B: 2x Alpen light (HEB) / Mullerlight vanilla / raspberries / banana and plan for the rest of the day: L: Jacket pot / baked beans / salad stuff / fruit / 28g cheddar (HEA) Snacks: Fruit /...

thanks Cocktail! Your progress is such an inspiration! YES - will be thin and gorgeous and he will be gutted.

I love this pic! He looks awesome and now is set up to be healthy for life! I wish my mum did something this constructive when I was a chubby teen!! Well done both of you!

So after yesterday's getting dumped I'm not exactly feeling sh1t hot. I'm not in the slightest bit hungry but I want to be prepared in case my next reaction is to be ravenous for naughty food. Anyone got any suggestions what I should get in, just in case? I suspect most of my syns for the...

Thanks Ruby :-) helps to know there are nice people out there. At least with SW if I need to binge (usual crisis management policy) I can get a load of free foods in and eat them until I feel sick without doing any damage. Shame that doesn't apply with booze too! Even though I feel less hungry...

Oh and to make matters worse he ended it 24 hours before our flight to go on a 3 week holiday. :-(

So, he dumped me and now I don't feel like eating. Which is good, because I started SW yesterday. So here is what I ate today. I fully intend to turn a bad thing into a good one. *sobs into laptop* B: Bran flakes (HEB) / Strawbs / Low fat yog Snack: Banana / apple x2 / low fat yog L...

Ok, after falling off the wagon last night with tapas and 3 cocktails with the girls (!) I've decided to post and keep myself on track. Today: Green Day B: 28g Bran Flakes (HEB), strawbs, plain low fat yogurt S: banana L: Jacket pot, beans, salad S: apple x2 D: not sure yet...
