Hi all. The dress is still tight on the boobs and hips but the wedding is not for another 14 weeks yet. It did help me keep my eye on what I ate at the buffet though which was good. Drank diet coke too 
I promise I'll post dress pics as soon as it fits and I can get photographed in it though.
Mobile broadband is on the slow side but better than what we could get on the boat before - we can't get ordinary broadband at all.
From what I've seen of the new plan, it's just points same as before but with an emphasis on making healthier choices so I'll stick with core with the odd points week thrown in if I want a change. Are they intending to allocate you so many points a day for healthy food and the rest for treats or are they just encouraging you to eat from the core list? If it's the latter, then it's not really a new plan at all!

Hi guys. Put 1 on this week but i did have my choc binge yesterday and also my 2.5 off last week was partly down to my poorly tummy so i've not done too bad for my first week without the runs (sorry for tmi )
3 more WIs before xmas and I want to lose 6lbs in that time so it's off the quality street and onto carrot and lentil soup which my oh is just making now

I posted a long reply and then my internet crashed (grr!). Carrot and coriander soup a la keith:
Peel and chop 8 carrot and put them in a pan with one chopped onion, a handful of red lentils (leave out if you want 0 point soup but only half a point per serving and adds some protein so more filling), some black pepper, a pint of water and a veg stock cube. Simmer till carrots are cooked then add a bunch of fresh coriander, chopped and blend the whole thing with a hand blender. Et voila. Serves three hungry people or four less hungry.
