Welcome to the forums! Let us know if you have any questions

Welcome from me too!

We shall look forward to getting to know you better over the coming weeks and months...but in the meantime - read lots on here....it's a mine of information! Also consider posting on the daily "Fasting Today" threads...it really helps to know you're not alone on a fast day....

Best of luck!

Thanks, I bought the recipe book for a penny plus postage off amazon and as I was a chef/cook I really like the look of some of them especially the pictures of Porridge at 200 odd calories and Egg spinach and Mushrooms at 183 it brings home the calorie difference and when you haven't got many to play with the need to choose carefully.
We cant start till Thursday and its with a mixture of trepidation for years I have done either Weight-watchers or slimming world and you forget that everything has calories.We started weight-watchers online in July 2014 and have done extremely well until a 6 week Skiing holiday returning to the UK in mid February this year and since then the weight we put on is still there plus a few pounds but nowhere near all we lost so this is crisis point we don't want to regain anymore as all the hard work then is wasted,the crunch is that all the past diets don't work for us now so here we go, will keep you posted

Will be thinking of you and OH tomorrow! Good luck!
Two things stand you in good stead..one being a good cook, and two,doing this with yr hubby! X
