    If you ever need help please feel free to look stuff up! You'd be surprised what can find over the internet! It isn't always about smaller sizes. It all starts at nutrition. You can say, I'm eating better because I only ate half of a fast food burger.' But is that burger providing you with everything that you need? No.

    It all comes down to food.

    It's hard to walk away from junk food, fast food because it's simple and easy. That was the hardest part for me at least. But now I don't touch the stuff because it gives me an upset stomach.

    I'm doing ok have lost just over a stone since April, as I'm trying to get ready for weight loss surgery, ( and it NOT the easy option that some people might think,) I have to try a liver shrinkage diet to see how I will cope when I have to do it for real for 2 weeks before surgery, and so this weekend is when I thought I would do it, I've tried one of the options today, slimfast 4 times today, and that is something I will NOT be using in my 2 week plan before surgery, it is revolting stuff how anyone would choose to take this stuff is beyond me, tomorrow its very small portions of food from a list, so will see how I go with that, I will let you know x

    Tried the other plan yesterday and apart from craving it went well so thats the one I think I will use as I can vary what I have with in reason (as long as its on the list) and eat as much veg or salad as I like again with in the plan, so now when I see the dietitian I can tell her how I got on. Im apprehensive about the surgery and know its going to be hard work but this weekend has given me an insight in to how tough it will be restricting my eating and dealing with the cravings, any how we will see xx
