I will be loosely following a GI-style diet, avoiding processed high-carb foods.

I'm going to just cut out rubbish diet as if I try to do anything to religiously I will mess up. I'm breastfeeding so dont really want to cut out any food groups or limit my intake too much. Plenty of execise and sensible eating for me!

I will also just cut out the rubbish from my diet, and less carbs and more veg.

i plan not to eat anything that i haven't put on a plate and sat down with....

i graze and somehow think it doesn't count if i haven't concentrated or enjoyed it

katybump · 30/09/2007 21:53

i always say it doesn't count if it's off someone elses plate either polly

Yup - totally scrumptious! I couldnt cut out bread either but think I might go for wholemeal/brown versions of things (doesnt sound too tasty tho!)

mmm white bread and butter heaven
but no more for me it really gives me stomach ache and i can't just have one slice!
brown and wholemeal are ok but don't taste the same so i'm not going to bother with bread at all
