I have "parcels" of clothes stashed around the house from size 10 - to my current size 18 - 20. I have only worn the same (versatile fit) clothes everyday since losing nearly 9 kilos so tomorrow I might try on my old jeans and see how I go. Its one of those non food related joys that we should indulge in daily!Shaggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04507797587737761148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749292921863613915.post-89347383539404601062009-02-17T08:06:00.000+10:002009-02-17T08:06:00.000+10:00So great to chat this morning!!!!I am so dreading ...So great to chat this morning!!!!<BR/><BR/>I am so dreading my first PB or food getting stuck. Did you have much of the melted cheese? Of so I'd be careful with that. I had a very small serve of potato bake the other night and there was a chunk of melted cheese within it. I chewed and chewed and it just wasn't breaking down so I spat it out. Didn't want to risk a PB.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing less of you in a couple of weeks.<BR/><BR/>Here's the blog I was telling you about.

Its exactly what I wanted to hear! That yes, people do chew and spit just to feel like you've eaten the desired food! I've done it once a day for the past three days and man has it kept me sane!!! I have an optishake and I very carefully chew a big beautiful mouthful of whatever it is (so far pizza, toast and a calamari ring) and then I spit it out and have a drink of shake! So it tastes and feels great and I'm full! I dont know whether its the feverish chewing or the giggling while I drink but it gives me bad wind but its all worth it! I make sure I dont get distracted and swallow - that would be murder right now I know. Other people have admitted to it also. I think it is such a sanity saver and no one else can judge unless they've been through this too. I love it and I'm sure we wont do it when we can eat "normally". thank you for sharing! Oh and the chest pain and stuck feeling I have most of the time seems to go when I thump myself in the chest or squeeze in my shoulders and chest - give it a try next time! Oh and I want the recipe for you vegie bake sounds yum!Shaggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04507797587737761148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749292921863613915.post-12385070621281742802009-02-14T21:30:00.000+10:002009-02-14T21:30:00.000+10:00Hi, found you via a comment you left on Bel's blog...Hi, found you via a comment you left on Bel's blog.
