Well, Lent did not do me any favours but I stuck it out and completed it.

I'd never make it as a vegetarian. I think I ate my body weight in cheese. Put majority of what I lost back on so more or less starting again.

I did however lose 3lbs last week which perked me up at bit. :)

Soooooo......

Will have coffee instead of pudding and lime and soda throughout.
 
Just read thro your diary - I'm thinking of mixing some red and green days with EE - got some good ideas from your thread - thanks!
 
Thought I would create this, mines probably a little boring and may consist a lot of the same things.
