Hi all!

Welcome to the new people - You will really like it here.

A Broad Abroad - Thanks for the info on the noodles. SHIRATAKI - these are located at: http://www.house-foods.com/our_produ..._products.html. It is about 4 rows down. I read about them in a low carb magazine and I'm obviously attracted to them because of their nutritional content. I'm going to buy some and test them out. Isn't that puppy just adorable. I found him on an avatar website but it took me 4 days to reduce him down so he could be uploaded.

beach gal - White chicken chili sounds wonderful!

Hope everyone had an OP day!

Evening!

I just received an email from the noodle company and they are going to send some to the asian store by my house so I can purchase some without having to buy the whole case. Wouldn't be wonderful to have a noodle that tastes good and is SBD friendly? Friendlier than WW or BW? Like I said it probably tastes like poo but I'm willing to try it. No carbs? Sounds too good to be true. I've been tricked before with word play so I'll wait to see what happens.

Good Afternoon,
Please forgive me if I dont respond to everyone - I went walking with my travelpack (10kgs) last night and I have a terrible headache, I think its from the shoulder strap being too tight. But walking with the pack is a huge effort - funnily enough, it is about what I have lost so far this year and I am just amazed at how hard it was to lug the extra kilos around - no wonder i am always tired For every extra kilo i lose I should put it in the pack and walk with it as a reminder of not wanting to be that size again!

Today we are just having a day at home - trying to sort a few things out before I leave and have a great play with my daughter. I will miss her and her daddy terribly.

Hopefully I have a friend that will join the forum soon as well. She has been reading the book and is starting next weekend and is now preparing her house so she starts well... It will be great to have the extra support. I am so enthusiastic about the benefits of the SBD, that I am really glad that she is starting as well.

I have to be honest an say that i feel really wonderful, my mood swings have vanished, the foggy brain is gone, I feel motivated, my skin had cleared up - the weight loss is an added bonus and I would be doing it without it at this point. But happy to keep losing


Have a great day everyone!
