    Lol, I've never drank so much water or eaten so much fruit and veg. I've probably eaten more f&v in the last 3 weeks than I have in my adult life! The only thing I really miss is cheese, I've tried the trick of smaller amount of stronger cheese but I just want the whole block... So for now it's total abstinence (of cheese anyway!)

    I have had an apple if I have been hungry. What have u been eating to have lost that much? I either have a stir fry with lots of veg or a sweet jacket potato. If I have had carbs at lunch time I won't have them in the eve and vice versa. The amount of water I have drunk I think the water board will be charging me soon
