It's only not free if it's cooked because it takes a lot longer for the stomach to break it down when it's eaten in its natural form. Eaten in its natural state keeps you fuller for longer and reducing the chance of snacking. Lemons don't count I guess because who actually eats lemons lol. We just use the juice in cooking etc. hope that makes sense, I know what I mean but cant get it to make sense when trying to explain it lol x

And it was a massive loss! i've only lost that much once. I'll try the cayenne pepper too xx
I've also heard that lemons are a super food for many reasons. The tip was to freeze them whole and then grate them on to everything and anything. Worth a try. I'll try to find the email and post more info later.
I have been trying to restart my diet plan every day for the last month but only seem to be good for a few days before failing miserably! I catered for two birthdays last week and even though I had healthy food on the table, I still ended up being enticed in to eating what everyone else was eating including birthday cake, twice! Bit disappointed to find out that First Cape 5.5% wine has double the points I initially thought! I bought a load on offer and gave up Eisberg 0% as my Syns book showed they were the same! Now I have to make do with one glass instead of two, ie one at lunchtime and one with dinner. My husband has just retired and we make more of our meals than we used to, but although it's lovely, I am struggling to make each meal sociable, ie sitting at the nicely layed table for lunch and dinner and with candles every evening with a diet coke whilst he drinks St Emillion or Chablis! We also eat out more now too but haven't found a pub or restaurant that offers 5.5% wine, which is a shame as its good for drivers as well as dieters!
I gave up WW as I became so preoccupied going online and filling in points and trying to work out how much of a certain food I'd eaten, especially in restaurants! Hopefully, apart from the alcohol, S/W will be easier. We are away for a week next week so not sure how I will get on. I had just sussed the Weathespoons menu of what I could eat with a jacket pot, ie steak, salmon, gammon, but no Weatherspoons where we are going in Devon this time! Wish me luck!

i had a third of a lemon in each cup. i got 5 lemons for a £ in asda. just remember if you are going to leave the lemon in the water to get unwaxed lemons!

Aiming for thin at 30!
I have also had lemon water today, had some first thing and what I have noticed more than anything is its curbed my appetite, I have eaten far less today than usual and the only snack I have had is 3 haribo - not even a yogurt and I only had the haribo cos they were there!
I like to drink diet coke and have been adding it to that too - not sure if it will have a detrimental effect but I can't give it up!
