Hi everyone, i have just logged my breakfast, i am really determined to get my life back, i quit smoking a month ago and have piled on the pounds, really could do with any support buddys to help eachother and also get some tips and ideas of yummy, healthy food. I have a terrible sweet tooth (drooling as i think of cakes, choccy and biscuits mmm) so byebye sweet things, my tum is no longer your home :)

    Welcome! Great to see a new determined face on here. I too am new and still finding my feet, on my third week so far with 3kg down. I thought I might help you with your sweet tooth as I myself have found some great sweet things that are better for you than what we were both probably eating before.

    Swizzles Matlow's FIZZERS @ 29 cal per roll. I have a few at my desk to help with the hand to mouth of not smoking, and it helps fix the sweet tooth cravings too. I should add a warning here that they are addictive and too many will probably rot your teeth so it is a good idea to only take a few rolls with you and remember your oral hygiene :)

    Also at my desk is a container of dried fruit.. saltanas, pineapple etc, also very sweet, but watch out for the hidden cals of too many ( even natural sugars have cals )

    Good luck and hang in there, we are looking forward to seeing a thinner, healthier happier you ,as you continue your journey.
