    Anyone seen Aunt Bessie's carot and sweded mash in any shops?

    Tescos. Bought recently on a two for one offer :D. I thought I read they are sin free. Much nicer and less time consuming then making your own. You can have as little or as much as you need(i`e if different family members are eating, you can adjust portion sizes easily). Have tried making my own...

    Love mayonnaise? Try this

    Love this, can`t taste any difference to full fat mayonaise. Tend to have my sarnies dry but if I do want more moisture, then this is a good substitute. I don`t even have to pile it on to get the tangy taste :0)

    Rhubarb anyone?

    From my garden, unfortunatly(disgusting stuff):mad:! I have tried to get rid of it but that stuff would require a nuclear thermal bomb to get rid of it(believe me, i`ve tried everything else). When they say cockroaches would be the only things to survive a nuclear holocaust, guess what they...

    Reasons for weight loss

    Some of the reasons I lost weight: 1:Health. My Mum died of heart disease at 69:cry:(she wasn`t massive and did use to smoke but i`m sure diet/weight had some bearing on how early she went and I also have other family members with heart disease). 2:I wanted to blend in. I once had some moron...

    Diets and medication

    Hi, you have my total sympathy, having Crohns. It`s not an easy disease to live with, from what i`ve seen. My brother has had it for 31 years now. As far as weight, the steroids don`t seem to effect him much(he has a little pot belly but that`s all and that could be due to age, he`s 51). He...

    Hi, I have managed to lose over 8 stone(in approx 8 months)by healthy eating(sort of following the general principles of Slimming World, which is healthy eating by any other name)and by walking. I started out walking slowish and for a little bit at a time and eventually worked up to fastish...

    how long did it take for your weight loss to show ?

    I didn`t notice until my size 16 uniform started swamping me(I had been a tight size 24). I really noticed when my size 12 uniform(that at one point wouldn`t get pass my bum, let alone my stomach)became loose :0) . Fitness wise, I would say it took about four months(of daily brisk walking)before...

    Can't follow diets!! Its useless!!

    Exercise(I just do brisk walking). Build up gradually, a little extra per week, then on more days per month(It took about four months before I felt fit and the exercise became effortless). By combining healthy eating and exercise I would say i`ve lost double what I have lost, in the same amount...
