I can't understand it but adding a bit of cinnamon to my morning porridge makes me much more full :eek: (I've tried for two days and got the same result). I've read it somewhere that cinnamon is apparently good for weight loss, but would never guess it would make such impact!
I think the taste is making you eat slower and appreciate the food much more.

Just my random uninformed opinion though :redface:
cinnamon is good because it can double as sugar and salt :p:
maybe it kicks starts metabollism a bit, :dontknow:
i have cinnamon grahams for breakfast now and they're yummy!

I find cinammon quit a strong taste, so can only eat so much of something cinamonny. Maybe that's why??

My boyfriend is coming over tomorrow so i might suggest we go for a long walk and picnic or go swimming and stuff #excited#

Having a good day so far...checking this makes me motivated so perhaps I should come online a bit more!

(although my uni work might suffer...:s-smilie:)

...I had the Weetabix for breakfast, and then a granary roll with grilled chicken for lunch. I was going to have a banana but it had gone all black and mushy:frown:

Might go to gym later depending how far I get with essays...and I will have to go on a long walk to the library:smile:

Just a question...what does everyone do in terms of exercise? Just curious to see how it compares to mine.

I try to walk for an hour a day at least (not hard in term when I have lectures), and also go to the gym 3-4 times a week...hard in term because I lack time. I also swim occasionally.:smile:

Hey guys, after my binge on tues i've been really good. Had a mammoth session at the gym yesterday and ate really healthily - woo. And today's been pretty good so far as well..

But, i'm going food shopping later and am after some ideas. I want to start eating more fish (oily ones). I like cod (but only usually eat in fishcakes) and eat salmon - but i think i should start eating more oily varieties such as trout or summat. So, does anyone have any good (healthy) fish recipes?

I might buy a george (i've always wanted a george) and try cooking fillets fairly simply on that.

Is trout the best oily fish? or should i try plaice or summat else? ideas please....
I'm rubbish at life....or just dieting. I had a pizza hut yesterday (like i expected! damn temptation) although the good thing is that the all you can eat buffet was closed! So i had a few slices of pizza and a bowl of salad (salad sounds good but knowing pizza hut it's probably covered in lard). And last night i ate a load of pringles and terry's chocolate orange. :frown:

I'm gonna try and be good and just not snack today, dad's already made veg curry and rice for me for tonight (was meant to have it last night but i went out). Also tomorrow i've got my school ball...what are the chances if i don't eat anything tomorrow at all i'll lose 1 million lbs by the night? Hahaha. :biggrin:
