Hi there I am a newbie who found this forum looking for recipes to make the LL packs a bit more varied, as I started LL on saturday 24th, and cant stop thinking about food (is it just me but are the sainsburys and marks and spencer food tv ads coming on like every 5 mins ? its driving me mad I have to look away!).
This forum is brilliant everyone is very friendly, I am sure it will be a great help just to know others are out ther stuggling too and that together we will WIN!. I have about 7 stones to lose so I guess I will be around for a while guys.
I was a bit nervous about joining in the thread as I had been told sometimes forums can be a bit .. you know ... everyone picking fights and being kinda smart and bitchy, but I guess that must be just skinny people! We of rounded proportions have got more important things to worry about (like hunger pangs, drinking all that water and a trillion trips to loo) and we know the real pain of being overweight too which hurts far more than thin people could ever know.
I guess when you are the butt of everyones jokes and jibes it makes you a nicer more understanding and forgiving person because everyone seems very supportive to each other.
Big thanks to Fuzzys Angel for the recipe for vanilla icecream which I had for my breakfast it was Yummy! I put it in a sundae glass and fooled myself it was a lovely creamy dessert (I may just be hallucinating though!)
Well, this is the start of day three and apart from serious hunger pangs and tummy rumbles so loud my family complained they had to turn the volume up on the telly for the last two days, I am feeling positive and quite well apart from a bit lightheaded last night. Anyone else had that? I have been managing the water 'Just about' so I am looking forward to next week when its supposed to get better.
I will get my son to help me fathom out how to put the lovely graphics and weight gauges you all use so that I can chart the journey in style.
Anyway bye for now and good luck everyone!
