    Hi Chris,

    What are you eating? You don't have to eat bland foods on the tablets at all i never have and have lost a ton of weight.

    Hey Chris!

    I find sometimes I really need something yummy and nice, so for a treat I will have chicken and chips. When I saw chips I mean peel and cut some potatoes, chuck them in an acti fryer / air fryer / halogen oven with just a spray or two of fry light and they are gorgeous! I use a salter halogen oven only about £25 and it's great but I'm saving to get an air fryer where no oil is needed at all!

      Hi

      You can eat a whole lot more than that and the only oil you should be using is frylight are you having any side effects? if your stuck on what to eat i have a blog with food ideas if you want it. Don't think you have to limit yourself on food because you don't apart from the obvious!
