Good tip Sandralice but I can't stand gin - don't think much of the tonic either. But I do like the occasional Kim Crawford First Pick Low Calorie Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay :-)

Hi Jen and welcome, you've found yourself a small but very supportive group. It's great to have a new member, have added you as a friend. Hope you're having a great weekend, Kay

And a safe weekend to you all from down south but Karen, could you please explain that word ... summer??? Don't think we get it down here. Dreadful again today - although the sun was shining it was very cold and blowing a gale. I was taking one step forwards and two back on my walk today. It's going to hose down all…

Right girls, here are the problems. Have only ever been a "once a day eater", cups of tea during the day and dinner at night. Trying to get breakfast/snack/lunch/snack/dinner down is pretty difficult. Have been having protein shake as breakfast because I don't have to force it down my throat like I do with muesli, toast,…

I'm going to give it a whirl tomorrow as well Trudi, looks good

Hi sophiebd, welcome to Kiwis Keeping Fit, another mainlander amongst us, fantastic as that will help even things up.

I've just started experimenting with it a little bit (very little because my breathing's not too good) but just adding it into a cardio workout and trying a bit of HIIT on treadmill, rower and bike on training rollers. Just finished a session and it's a killer, not sure whether I was going to have a stroke or heart attack,…

That's just rubbing salt in the wound because the weather was so bad down south ... cold, windy and eventually wet here on the west coast. And, just to make matters worse, we've had absolute downpours this morning with thunder and lightning. Super! Suppose it's still stunning up at Beachlands :cry:

Have you tried a wine spritzer - half wine and half soda water so you actually get two for the price of one as far as calories are concerned! Tastes okay but with bubbles and might fit the physical craving bill. Or, second option, look for Kim Crawford First Pick Low Calorie/Low Alcohol wine with just 83 cals a glass. Kim…
