Hi Lenny, don't apologise. I'm forever hijacking other threads and don't realise i'm doing it!
Sarah, glad your pack arrived....are you excited about starting. I was really excited, like a kid at xmas
I've not had much chance to post for the past few days so i'm sorry for not getting on here much. I'm still enjoying following the unit diet, and even though i'm still quite new to it I feel like this is the diet I will stick with and get to goal with. It suits me, I love bread and find giving it up or having to eat nimble or such brands is just like torture. I love that on this diet I can have normal bread, white or wholemeal with no guilt. I also like the fact that I can have unlimited milk as I am a tea-tank and get through about 15 cups of tea each day.
One of the js forum members recommends having a whole box of jaffa cakes should you ever get that 'need to eat chocolate and cake' craving. A whole box is 4 units, which out of 10 daily units seems a lot, but it's not actually that bad. I did it last night and it was fab! I felt very naughty but stayed within my daily units so felt really proud of myself. A whole box of jaffa cakes is not the healthiest way to lose weight, but it stopped me grabbing the ben&jerry's out of the freezer so it was a necessary evil
Yesterday I had my full 10 units, but most days i'm having 8-9. I try to save a unit or 2 each day so that I can have a bottle of wine on a Friday evening

arty0036: a bottle contains 9 units, so by having 8 units Sun-Wed and 9 units Thursday I can have my proper 10 units on a Fri and a Sat plus a bottle of wine! Again, not the healthiest way to lose weight, but I figure 16+ stone was not the healthiest way to live my life.
Anyway, Friday is here (hooray) I am finishing early today so starting to countdown the last 40 mins!! Getting ready for big brother tonight with my bottle of Merlot
Have a great weekend everyone.
Love Lou xxx
