Just been to Holland and Barrett, they have a half price sale at the mo, and the protein powders are £11 compared with £23, and is absolutely huge, coming in 3 flavours. I have no appetite at the moment (is that really me) and breakfast is making me nauseous, so I am hoping to whip up something in the blender. Also bought chromium picolinate tablets (involved in fat and glucose metabolism), soya milk (unsweetened) and best of all "green and blacks" organic dark chocolate. A 20g bar by my reckoning is 9 carbs, bargain if you need a choc fix, and the darkness of it, makes it very satisfying. Also invested in some soya flour and ground almonds for that all important thickening and breadcrumbing thang. Get down there!!

Since June 1st, 11 pounds........... 3 weeks to fit into 3 pairs of trousers that would not look at me before. YEAH!!!!!!
