Thanks Angie,

Are you joining us in this Quest?

Diandra,

Chia seeds and the pudding sound inviting - infrequently, or I will break down. The seeds cost £27:00 per Kg at my local Supermarket, although the packets are not THAT big.

Are these the same Chia as in the Chia Pets??? Anyone…

I now have a fairly accurate calorie count for the past few days. 950-1330kCal, which is in my target. I am supposed to consume 2000-2200kCal, I believe I've been having around 2500-2800kCal.

Weighing CORRECT (not diet) portion sizes has been a real eye-opener, I cannot believe how much I overate. Even single portion convenience meals I have in for very bad times are double the weight they should be. No wonder the Developed World is overweight.

I have a call booked tomorrow (today) with my GP to discuss whether I can supplement with Multivitamins, as all I have checked here have Calcium added.

Dave.
