Yep thanku everyone 
weighed today and I am at my last weigh in weight (17st11lb) so I have 3 days to be 100% to make a half decent loss for official WI on Monday ordered my next lot of exante stuff last night.. Opted for a box of 50 vanilla which come with 1 free apple and cinnamon porridge.. My experience with porridge wasnt great last time but I probably just didn't make it right lol.. But delivery will be Monday

I can confirm that the new porridge is delicious! Had a free sample yesterday morning and was very impressed with it. I let is stand longer than on the instructions as it was very runny but it did thicken up.
How does everyone get on with the carbonnara? First time I cooked as instructed and am still cleaning out the microwave! So yesterday let it soak in boiling water for 5 mins then heated it on the hob. Very liquidy and took a while of standing to thicken up the sauce, but overall not bad. Found the longer I left it the more I seemed to get as the spaghetti swelled. Any other cooking tips on this very welcome.
Tried the strawberry shake today and was impressed. On day 5 now but still no ketosis.
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend in the sun.

I like the carbonarra but cook it for much longer than the instructions state. I do it in the microwave and just keep cooking until the pasta expands and is sof and the sauce has thickened - you have to keep and eye on it and keep stopping and stirring to avoid a messy microwave!

Yeah I have to keep stopping and starting it a lot during the last half a minute or so otherwise ther will be none left in the bowl lol xx

It is quite nice if you manage to get it thick and gooey. When I first cooked it, the sauce was thin and the pasta was still hard and I thought it was horrible!

This weekend has been awful on the food front and I feel awful for it will I ever learn??
Anyway tomorrow is a new day and the beginning of a new week.. I have 12 days from tomorrow until the hen night on the 20th.. I know my WI tomorrow morning will be more than last week as I have slipped up quite a bit and weighed this morning already 1lb more but I'm not going to let it bring me down fresh start tomorrow morning focused

Yep got a box of 50 vanilla coming tomorrow and I really like them so it should get a bit easier... Love using 300ish ml of hot water.. 1.5 tsp of coffee and whisking the vanilla shake in.. Lovely latte with a caffeine boost

Well my official WI this morning and it wasnt bad.. Considering I ate more days than i was on plan last week I only put on 1lb and weighed in at 17st12lb.. So a positive start to the day.. Day one of 12 days 100% also it's been exactly 4 weeks now since starting and a grand total off 18lb lost in that 4 weeks.. If that's not a motivator I don't know what is xx

I walk about a mile to the train station and a mile back (uphill) every day and think I'm a lot fitter than I was when I used to drive to work.
