Who Is Going To Start A New Diet On Sunday?

[Barsel]

.....or perhaps Monday, so you can have your usual Sunday roast.If you are, which diet are you going for?

[Tilly2]

I am at the moment, Ummmm. About four pounds overweight. I feel fat!

[ummmm]

That's not too bad.

[Tilly2]

No it isn't but it's enough for me to feel uncomfortable.

[ummmm]

I haven't got any weighing scales so don't know if I've put weight on or not...and I've been ill so have mainly been in PJ's.

[Tilly2]

Sorry to hear that Ummmm. Are you on the mend?

[DTCwordfan]

minimal carbs as before and no alcohol for four to six weeks.

[EcclesCake]

Having never been on a diet I think it unlikely I'll try one tomorrow.

[ummmm]

Yeah yeah...I'm fine. Nothing too bad, just enough to stop me feeling sociable. Then 'HE' got it and didn't get out of bed for 3 days :-D

[Old_Geezer]

Of course. About 2.5 stone over ideal, 1.5 stone I'd settle for.

[ummmm]

Good luck, OG, Are you the gentleman that hates rabbit food?

[Barsel]

ummmm, typical of a lot of men, can't cope with illness :-) OG, I would be happy if I could lose 2 stone, but I can't cope with diets.How do you eat less? If I'm enjoying what I'm eating, I want more not less!How can anyone not have bread? I tried this once and I was craving for toast.I've also tried rabbit food but get bored with it.I'm thinking of trying a soup diet but don't think I will stick it for long.

Very very rarely that I eat bread, Barsel.

[Bazile]

Still plenty of goodies left - so mine has been postponed until February

2020

[Barsel]

Tony, what do you have in place of bread? You can put everything on bread so what's the alternative?

[tonyav]

I don't substitute bread as such, Barsel. ie I usually have crumpets for breakfast instead of toast ( are crumpets a type of bread ) ?.

[Barsel]

^^^^ probably. :-)

[tonyav]

Should have said bread from a loaf then I think, Barsel.

[Barsel]

Ingredients for crumpets.
175g/6oz strong white flour
175g/6oz plain flour
2 x 7g sachets instant yeast
1 tsp caster sugar

Lol Tony, lovely crumpets with butter dripping off them, yummy.

[tonyav]

These are the type of crumpets ( sometimes called pikelets ) that I eat, Barsel.
