    HI sarah I started SS today, and have to say I found the porridge quite nice! I could only eat normal porridge smothered in sugar, but with this, I was able to eat it and enjoy it! Not tried the App/Cin porridge yet, that will be on my next order from my CDC! Good luck

    Scottishguy, im 6ft in heels, lol. Im 5ft 11 so for me, 14st 11lbs would do me luvly, even though that medically I would still be in the "overweight" catagory, but like you, I feel if I was to go any lighter, I'd look very unwell! Plus, I'm big boned (dont you hate it when people say that to ya?).
