well done Mizzy!!!
i just ate my oatso simple, fruit museli, its the best !!
had same yesterday and went out for lunch, had wholemeal beef and red onlion baguette, with tortillas, then dinner i had chilli mince with boiled white rice, (i also have my meal on a smaller plate now, so my brain thinks i am still eating a "normal" size meal)
and not one snack went between my lips at any other time during the day!!! this is what i am going to look at and see if this is my problem, i will not pick at any time between meal times!!!

Morning all
Am off to SW today to get the official verdict on my hols. Am hoping it will not be too excessive as I did not snack and did lots of exercize on the trip ( Hiking, Cycling and such)
Will check in later with the results
Mizzy - the outfit sounds fab. Go for it girl. Think I will give it another couple of weeks before I start looking for my Xmas outfit [msnwink]

Mizzy, spicy carrot soup sounds fab, any chance of the recipe please??
Been in France the last two weeks and only put on a couple of pounds, mainly because no picking between meals, then soup or salad starter and LOTS of walking around.

Good Luck at sw Jan
i'm sure it will be ok
isnt it scary that moment just before you get on the scales
i do the weighing at my class and its still scary for me!!!
Liesa
you are doing fantastic!!!
but i would stay away from anything "white" in the bread /pasta/rice food groups
they are full of starchy carbs that take your body ages to digest and bloat you out something awful
i know its a shock to the taste buds at first but wholemeal/wholegrain and brown are so much kinder to the digestive system and they will speed up your weight loss too
also these foods have a low GI so fill you up for longer
it took me ages to give up the white bread but now i grumble something awful to the staff if morrisons if they sell out of my favourite organic wholemeal

For Mary
Spicy Carrot Soup
peel then slice or dice 2kg carrots one large leek and put in large pan with boiling water and two vegetable stock cubes
simmer until soft and then take off heat drain off some of the water into a jug and put aside blend remaining soup until nice a smooth (i use a hend blender that sticks straight into the pan) add schwartz "spicy season all" to taste and add juice from jug until soup is desired consistency and then your all done
you can use any spices you fancy but i like the schwartz one because it gives the soup a really warm kick
if i'm feeling in a proper chef mood i will add fresh chopped coriander instead of the spice and some freshly squeezed orange juice
this will make enough soup for about 6-8 big servings (i usually freeze half)but thats only if my husband doesnt eat it all first [msntongue]
