Hi all,
I lost 5 stone will LL in 2007. It totally changed my life (as in divorce, new partner, new job and way more happiness and confidence) and I maintained at 10-11 stone for 2 years until I fell pregnant last year.
My son was born very early and has been ill and the combination of pregnancy weight and stress-eating (and xmas) means I found myself at two stone heavier than I was when I started the first time around (16.5 stone). I'm back on the programme and finding it very good - down by a stone already, but as I can't get to a group (due to my baby) I just turn up and buy my packs each week. I'm not sure with all the new packs what is allowed? I only like the peanut bars (not the fudge ones - the more flapjack one), the chocolate shakes, the chilli and the tomato soup (at a push).
The last time around I had to have 4 chocolate shakes every day (and still managed 136 days without a cheat!) so it's nice to have more options I can actually swallow withut gagging!
Am I allowed one shake, one soup, one chilli pack and one bar a day? Also, are you still only allowed one bar per day? I could REALLY do with two bars a day as I am really starting to despise the other flavours but LOVE the peanut bar.
Any advice gratefully received - I'm hoping to be back at goal soon after my 30th birthday in May.
Thanks all,
Beth xx
