    Trimming off 'all visible fat'...

    I don't cut every single speck of fat off but then I do cook bacon etc really well so the fat is cooked out for the main part. It has never harmed my losses. I also buy regular mince but I do rinse it off with hot water to get rid of the fat in it. Again never harmed my losses. C xx

    Thanks Lisa, dont know about tips I just stick to the rules and I do have a lot to lose so that explains some of it. I have to admit though I have stopped eating so many potatoes, pasta, salt is out the window and coke zero. I think that might have something to do with it. Other than that I...

    Getting back onto the SW wagon!

    Honestly hun, dont worry about that. I stopped going to SW two years ago and put all the weight I had lost back on and more. I procrastinated for ages not wanting to go back because I had left and I finally bit the bullet beginning of February and returned to my local group. I dont know what...

    Don't shoot me but why do we have to search before we post..

    I have to agree I've seen some real shocker of curt and confrontational responses and really there is no need to relate to people, especially new people, in that way. It's just plain rude. The ones where people who have the patience and intension to help others and post the links for me are the...

    In a situation i've not been in for a while - best choices?

    You should be able to find salad somewhere at the very least. If I eat somewhere now I tell them what I want and I have never been refused yet. xx

    Grapefruit

    Thanks for the link, thats very handy to know. My mum always ate grapefruit before her meals when she was dieting. Think its been around for a long time so seems there may be something in it. x

    1lb up from yesterday

    I get weighed every day and always have - it helps me focus, and doing it or not doing it is a very personal choice that everyone is free to make. Don't worry about the pound, I was 10 pounds up from one weigh in the other weekend but by the Wednesday I got weighed in class it had disappeared...
