Could still be you in the rubber suit.  :lol:

I think the legs are slightly different though, so maybe I will believe you, but then again, it could have been took a while ago, so it could still be you !

Hmm 'spose you're right. What sort of pic would you require???

if you want something to chew, im sure you would be allowed to snack on raw carrotts (ask in case i am wrong!) as they are mostly water but full of vitamins  :D

or raw celery, as that is a negative calorie food (but i cant stand the stuff!)

[strapping young lad]

no, your body is going through abstinence, or detox if you will, i will scan a picture of the stuff i get in one milkshake cos its loads of vitamins

so...

ALL Food and drinks are banned, with the exception of plain water or black coffee/tea

you can buy water flavourings but a pot of it (bout the size of a mustard jar) is 9 quid!

One with you next to the person in the black suit.  But then I wonder if you are not in the suit, just what are you wearing with the other person wearing what they are!!!!!!!!! :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Good going!  

I don't want to sound negative but unless you're going to avoid putting the weight back on it might be worth keeping some of the older clothes.

If you want to find some recipies that are tasty and easy, take a look at some of the Ainsley Harriott books; most of his stuff is pretty simple to make and he's even done a low fat book.  

Also if you can get them, the weightwatchers cook books are fantastic for low calorie, great tasting food.  They're only officially sold to members, but do pop up on e-blag (or drop me a PM and I might be able to help with getting some).

You can get WW cook books from their website - not just for members.  They are a business, so they look to sell to anyone, as long as they get their money! :lol:

SYL  - need some pics of the new and improved you so we can judge the change in the bod. :shock:
