hi guys, I've been lasy lately so decided I need to shed some pounds before I get toned up!!!

Im asian (as in indian) based in the UK, so our diets are a little heavy... too many naan breads, rice, curries lol...

I've been good as of yesterday - drank loads of water, had 3 eggs for breakfast, salad for lunch with some chicken and lamb... then when I got home I had some kebabs (grilled, and a bit of beef)...

Question for you guys, I know I can't have olives, but can I have halipinos and the large pickled chillies??? I love them!!! hehe.

With regards to the olives question, I have c and p'ed a quote from the above link.

Special Category Foods
To add variety, each day you can also eat 10 to 20 olives, half a small avocado, an ounce of sour cream or three ounces of unsweetened heavy cream, as well as two to three tablespoons of lemon juice or lime juice. But be aware that these foods occasionally slow down weight loss in some people, and may need to be avoided in the first two weeks. If you seem to be losing slowly, moderate your intake of these foods.

Re: newbie...

Hi and welcome!

Aren't you glad to discover you CAN have olives? They're one of my favorite foods, so I would be lost without them, I think! And yes, chiles and peppers are quite acceptable too, so you should be quite happy!

Keep up the good work, and don't hesitate to ask questions around here, there's always someone ready with an answer.

GOOD LUCK!
