Haha! I wish!

Am getting mighty bored with all this, I must say - I'd fight anyone for a bloody great big fry up right now!

OK, I'm getting back on the Horse. No Carbs today, so far, so may as well call this day one. Had meat and cheese today, so a carb-free dinner should help kick-start me.

Why do I now have a craving for CAAAAAKE!

Oh-Oh, the Rant Thread is gonna be popular with someone ....

The biggest snag with the no-carb diets is you hardly get started before the carb-cravings kick in! Until I tried to do Atkins, I only ate carbs 'because you do', but once I got started, I wanted bread, spuds......
I did better on 'The New High Protein Diet', which doesn't restrict green veg at all (carrots and green beans are borderline) and allows 1 thin slice wholemeal bread and 1 orange (or other fruit if taking vit C tablets) per day. The rest is all meat/cheese/eggs.
Right now I am sticking to a calorie controlled plan (although not really counting, just avoiding high calorie stuff, and got a pretty good idea how much I can have of the medium calorie foods).

Same here, more or less - I know the approx 'value' of things, and know that if I have brekkers, lunch. dinner at 200, 300 & 400 cals respectively, there is latitude in there for the odd pint of beer (or homemade rhubarb crumble & icecream!)

I have a very sore throat and a temperature - my body seems to think a whole pack of Party Rings is the cure

[Florence Fennel]

Be guided by your inner voice TS, you know it makes sense. Hope you feel better soon.

Your body (which includes those thighs, you know) is wrong - gargling with TCP will not only stop your throat feeling sore, it also has the advantage that it makes everything taste so vile, you won't want the party rings.

Seriously - hope you feel better soon - lots of liquids, paracetamal and sleep.
