I am aware that I may not be eating enough. I am never without or hungry though! Also, anyone tell me about spices? Paprika, cumin, oregano really!

Hello :)

Thank you! I know that if I didn't make it as normal as possible I wouldn't do it. 3 meals so I fit in with everyone. When I remove myself from normality with what I eat then I always fail!!
I just think about how I can transform my normal meals :) plus I love doing it, especially the jelly!!!!

All ok with you?

Hello! I remember you too!

That's the same with me, I feel utterly in control and not under pressure and its the only plan that makes me feel like this!

Get yourself some mini kievs. They are just scrummy :) thank you, didn't expect a big loss but pretty sure that my doctor scared me! Good luck and let me know if you have a diary!!!
