Well im here again. This is my 3rd time around on Weight watchers.

This time I will be attempting to wean myself of caffiene, aspartme and reducing my wheat/gluten intake. I was diagnosed iwth Fibromyalgia in October 2011 but have been symptomatic for years.

I started jogging in may 2012 and really enjoy it. Can only manage 5k at present andn ow winter is here I am stuggling due to the cold weather exasperating my Fibromyalgia.

Tomorrow (Sunday) will be my first pro point day.

Wish me luck x

Well today has been a good WW day :)

3 days caffiene free. Slowly weening myself of the sweetners. As for being wheat free not so much. The prices of wheat free stuff is ridiculous!!!

Am including some pics of my food for today.

Also trying to see if I fancy using 4 more weeklies pp for the bournville flavoured highlights hot choclate tonight....Just discovered that Highlights hot choclates has aspartem in it. Ohh well have 4 to drinik as not throwing them away, but at least iknow for next time.
