I've started OWL

[Want_to_be_slim]

Hi folks,

I've completed my two weeks induction where I managed to stick to the script inspite of having friends here to stay for a long weekend. They ate all the usual sugary high carb stuff while I stuck to my guns. I also made them take the leftover stuff away with them.

So on induction I lost 7lbs, which isnt bad as I didnt do any real exercise to speak of (a combination of induction flu and other stuff got in the way, as well as a bit of laziness!)

I'm now starting to feel my energy pick up, my clothes are getting looser (a great incentive!) and my skin feels hydrated.
I even sleep more soundly and feel fresher in the morning.

I decided to buy a wii fit, and last night I set it up and had great fun doing the exercises and playing some games. It certainly gets your butt up off the sofa and I can thoroughly recommend it

So lets see what OWL brings. I've added veggies to my total and I like the sound of this cauliflower 'rice' so may try that today.

Welcome. That is wonderful to hear that you had good success and showed your will power.
OWL is a great place and yes cauliflower rice rocks. I love the tastes of ginger and curry in it.

I've just had dinner.
Chicken breast cubed, marinaded in garlic, olive oil and curry spices, then pan fried with diced green pepper, whole peppercorns and cream to make a sauce.
Served on a bed of cauli rice with side salad.

Cauli rice just rocks and is a great way to get extra veggie carbs
