Gem - Do you mind asking your CDC if I can consult with her via email and the occasional phone call (I'd make the call so no charge to her.) ?? That would be absolutely lovely! And being formerly American, she might understand a lot better about the foods and diet stuff available here, and how the CD USA works, than an average CDC over there. [/quote]
I will ask her GTPeach but I won't see her until Saturday. I will drop her an email in a second and hopefully she will respond quickly.
Great to hear from you Helen! I started a new job shortly after starting the diet too, and I also went for a drastic haircut just before!!! Must be a woman thing x
Well done 161ds!!! We are on a roll this week! I feel we may win this!!! xxx

I am totally not digging this porridge...it tastes foul to me! I have tried it on three occasions now, with sweeteners, without sweeteners, more water, less water?!!? I feel slightly let down as I was so looking forward to 'eating' something. Oh well...back to shakes! I have to admit that I find the tetras absolutely divine! I would drink them all the time if I didn't have to have a mixing shake to put my fibre in (I hate it in water!)!!!! xxx

Hmmm the porridge is a weird one, i made it with extra water yesterday and it wasn't good, but today i made it exactly as it said and it was surprisingly nice. The really strange thing was how full i felt, my stomach felt heavy, it has made me slightly nervous about how it will feel to eat real food again.I'm with you Gem, i defo can't take the fibre in water

Hi Gem,
I've just bought myself some hair rehab clip in extensions they are about £100 but are real hair and you can curl, straighten, wash and colour them.
I was considering getting "proper" extensions but my friend had them done and they take so much time to maintain them, might be worth trying the clip ins first they take 5 mins and look totally natural.
I love the idea of having sensible business women shoulder length hair mon-fri and then clipping my fab (20") extensions in at the weekend! lol
If you do get them done let me know what you think.
Don't worry at all about the plane you honestly have nothing to worry about, just try and get the emergency exit seats for your own comfort cos you get loads of leg room.

i wear the clip in ones all the time 
in my avatar i am wearing them! i love them!
but they are a pain to put it every day and i prefer the idea of having extensions permanently in but having to look after them more lol.
thanks for the tip about the plane!!
how are you feeling today? x

Wow they look great!
I must admit i keep thinking about having some proper extensions, but not sure how practical they would be with an 18month old! I'm always washing the clip ins because he has given me a hug with jam/cream cheese/ yoghurt etc on his hands!
Feeling good today, jumped on the scales this morn (i know i know but i have to look!) and i've lost 2 pounds so secretly hoping for a good one this week, you watch... i will still have only lost 2lbs by sunday now lol.
Lucky you going to prague, i know exactly how you feel i was worried when we went skiing last march but there is enough room, and its only a short flight.

2lbs already? well done you! we are so going to win this week! i can't jump on the scales whenever i want as i am currently off them! i need to get down by another 2st 4lbs to be on them!!! when i do finally get there i will probably become a serial weigher!!! i keep measuring myself though. twice a week or something-i'm terrible!!! lost loads of inches though so i'm chuffed!
the good thing about my job is that the days fly past and before i know it, it's weigh in again! i love it!
but my 24th birthday is fast approaching too and this year, no cake!!! :cry:nevermind, it will be worth it in the end when on my 25th birthday, i will be a trim 11st 7lbs!!! xxx
