P.S Birdie…..most importantly, the raw milk keeps its vitamins A & D, which normal pasterised, homoginised milk loses through all its processing.

Hi Birdie….I’m on day 6 and new, I’m also in the uk, east sussex. Raw milk is sold by some english farmers, there are several near me. basically its pasterised milk from free roaming ayrshire and jersey cows, who eat grass and are not fed crap or jabbed full of drugs from what i’ve managed to gather. the difference between the milk is that it hasn’t been homoginised (sorry about spelling!). Which means the milk will be like the good old days at school, with the cream at the top of the bottle! We used to fight over that at home lol. Apparently, its called “Green Top” milk here and is safe and legal. Hope that helps and I haven’t waffled too much??? 🙂 cheryl

I believe Aldi and Lidl supermarkets sometimes stock spelt bread. Well Aldi’s always used to but i haven’t looked for it recently. Hope this helps!

Apensa…. you made me laugh so much!! So far the frog spawn has stayed down, but can’t feel anything hatching yet, will let you know later haha! So you nuts about Vodka!? lol…So nice to see that everyone on here has a sense of humour, which is sooooo needed when we are all trying to lose weight and get healthy.

Had a couple of Vodkas on the Rocks and an hand full of Pistacchio nuts as a snack. But see, I’m thinking. Among the hard stuff, Vodka is aobout the best and Pistacchios are on the list as an alternate nut. If one nut dosrn’t work, the other one will. I feel very proud of my affilication with the TrimClub. If it had not been for them, I wold have had the two Vodkas without nuts.

charyl. I have to hand it to you. I don’t think I would have tried frog spawn before or after in went in, but I’m glad it works for you….enjoy. If it stays in long enough let us know how the tadpoles are doing

Oh my god!…… My Quinoa Pud has just come out the oven! It looked like frog spawn before it went in. But….I’ve just tried it and its amazing. Yeah….I must admit I didn’t think I was gonna like it and I did turn my nose up, but I’m so glad I put the effort in lol.

Hi Robyn…you know I thought that R2b2 might be a Robyn….lol…
So are you calling me a chatterbox or what??? Hahah…you wouldn’t be the first!!! I was timed once when I was a teenager to see how long I would last under water without talking!!! I made 20mins…but I didn’t stay under that long. A friend on FB described her little girl starting prep today as being like herself…and me! I have 3 grandchildren like it too! She said “Why use five words in a phrase when 20 fit equally as we’ll?” I love it…
Anyway…good to hear about your weight loss…I must be doing something wrong…lol..
I might not get to see Parental Guidance in the theatre I reckon…might just wait for the DVD and have a girls night with my girls!!! Sounds like most people I know enjoyed it!
Anyway, dinner is ready…must go and serve my man!!!! Haha..he has been so busy out in the yard, cleaning up the mess from the tree that broke…he pruned it right back and now has to get it into the compost etc.
Night girls…and boys…or morning…I am very tired tonight…been a huge week, but not as big as the poor things south of us down the coast! Maryborough and Bundaberg and the towns in the west of the highway are in dire straits right now!

Hi, Chia. The Honey Cake recipe looks great – I would suggest to take the advice of the person who left a comment, and exchange half the honey for Stevia or monk fruit sweetener (2 tsp for 1/4 cup honey), or xylitol or coconut sugar in the same amount as the honey. This lessens the impact on your metabolism. Also, I would change the portion size to 1/16 of the cake.
Regarding you flours question: you can use your regular flour and it will be the same amount of carbs for all but the nut or seed flours (i.e. almond or flaxseed flours), but if it is refined white flour (i.e. Pillsbury), you are missing out on most of the health benefits of the recipe, and it can definitely impact your weight loss.
Yes, I am the dietitian in all the forums. Just scan through the lists in the different subject areas – there actually are quite a few topics you can get into there than relate to common questions.
