    Good morning and welcome to the forum! :-)

    Yep!... its cheese for me too!

    Lovely Britney has mentioned that the brand "Laughing Cow" makes a light version that is withing the so called rules, so "if" cheese is your thing you might like to try it.

    Cheese has always been my downfalI, give me a cheeseboard over desert anytime! I have not managed to find the low fat Laughing Cow in my local stores, but shall keep looking, as I feel its not a good idea to deprive meself of all foods I love.

    Check out Britneys Oristat blog, there are lots of hints and tips that are great for newbies!

    The rules are ur not mean to eat anything over 5g per 100g and as cheese is about 40g I'm not suprised lol. I was on them for 6 months and it takes a while, but the longer you take them the smallest mistake will cause a accident I found!!

    Just be careful with the fat content. smile

      Omg really?  I haven't had them but I'm shocked by that, no wonder the whole country is getting fat if this is what someone would eat on a cracker for a healthy snack!!

    If you have extra low fat laughing cow it's only 2g per 100g so that's safe option smile

    i havent found one yet ... although i'm sure it's only a matter of time!

    I'm used to strange "bowel movements" so the side effects haven't really been that drastic for me ...
