  • Haven't had my Friday weigh in yet - but I'd managed to put 4 pounds on on the run up and 2 pounds last week - so that's 6 pounds. I'm OK with that though TBH, it's been nice to have a bit of time off from thinking about the calories and enjoying the festivities. It's tough to count the calories with so much food around…

  • So many TV shows from the uK I remember like "Why Don't You" and "FunHouse" but in the interests of international appeal? If you want to go more obscure - try this for size:

  • Hmmm - thought I'd try and think of a couple more of the "activity fun" things from the original reply. Can't believe no one mentioned Scatch, Swingball and Aerobee. OK so the last two were probably 80's and you can still get them all now - but I remember them most from the 90's!

  • I do the meal plan - we have a spreadsheet with all the dinners we like (replaced them with some low fat variants). We do it for the whole month so we don't have to think about it from one week to the next. I have some tips for success: * Plan for a month so that it makes you think of 30+ different dinners (trust me coming…

  • For me - I'm on 1290/day (down from 1360 - seems MFP has punished me for losing weight ;) ). I use Graze boxes to get me through the day , some are only 50-80 cals each and provide tasty snacks to keep me going in between meals. Although 1290 is going to be a stretch for the foreseeable, might have to revise my weekly loss…

  • That's how we got by until the book came - the great thing about the book is the fact there are a whole bunch of new awesome recipes that weren't on their show. The Sham-pagne that they made though is only on the web it would seem - that was pretty tasty (although it is tricky to find that Orange Blossom Water)...

  • We've gone back to planning our meals through the month - half of the recipes in there are from that one book! Everything we've had from it so far has been fantastic. They're a good inspiration as I can associate with their love of food (cooking and eating) and I can associate with the waistline.... if they can do it , so…
