Went shopping to Sainsbury's this afternoon and have stocked up ready to start in the morning, and I'm really excited 
does that sound daft? It's just I know this is going to work and I'm so fed up with how I look & how I feel that the thought of losing weight, feeling healthier and having more energy certainly does appeal and not having to starve myself to get there even more so! I've been yo-yo dieting for the last year and it's not doing me any good at all and I'm really bingeing in between and eating so much sugar in the form of biscuits and chocolate, well that's obviously not doing me any good and I'm hoping that this will well & truly break these bad habits for good!
Good news too in that hubby has decided to join me as he wants to lose some weight too and remember doing Atkins with me about 6 years ago as the diet with the great food! LOL. He's a real meat eater so quite happy with bacon & eggs for breakfast etc.
A few questions I have - with the MiM's, how long to they keep, are they best made up and eaten straight away or could I make a couple for breakfast the night before? Also I bought a box of Splenda so how do I convert the packets in the recipe to grams please?
With regards to milk, hubby doesn't fancy black tea or cream in his tea either can he have any sort of milk like soya for example or is all milk a no-no?
I'm sure I had another question, can remember now - oh well I'll post if it comes back to me, I'm sure I'll be asking lots over the next couple of weeks.
Will put in my stats in the morning, haven't decided yet whether to try a Mim for breakfast or have eggs - hmm, see how I feel in the morning, but really looking forward to getting going!
