Hi Chris  :)   Yes I have been putting full milk in my coffee which is making it taste much better thanks.  I have been surprised at how well we have adapted.   We basically went cold turkey the day after I stayed up all night reading both books.  I love to do my own home baking and making everything from scratch so changing over with dextrose has not been hard at all.  My boys are both teenagers so keeping the containers full is the hardest thing now hahaha   But we all feel so much better all round.

How are you finding the change Chris :)

Hi Chris thats a great start to your weight loss :) :)  well done.   I have not bothered to even weigh myself I can't stand those things.  I don't have much to lose so have really done this for the health benefits and just to feel better about myself.  Hate scales I think they tell lies , well they were when I was standing on them haha   My clothes are getting loose so that is what I am judging this by and the fact I am waiting to eat until I actually feel really hungry ... quite a weird feeling.  Also I have found that I am not going by what the time on the clock says but by what my stomach is saying to me instead..

What have I been baking .... the very first thing I tried was in Davids book. It was a home made meat pie ... it was so nice.  I thought I would have some left over but um no have two teenage sons who scoffed the lot down !!  Roast dinners, pasta (home made sauce from Davids book)  Honestly I have been using loads of Davids and other recipes from on this forum.  I have tried four of the cakes/slices the boys loved the cinnamon tea cake.  Both are having a go at baking something from the books each day while on school holidays.  Each day is a better day so onwards and upwards.  :) :)  Michelle

Hi Chris   .... yeah have a great family and thanks for saying that is always nice to hear.   I am just making some home made sauce from Davids book now ... boys are going to have a go at making the sausage rolls for dinner.  I think I have two new chiefs on my hands.  I love how they have embraced this new type of cooking without any sugar ... awesome.

Oh yes I have read Toxic Oil .... I was disgusted at what has been sneaked into our food ... so revolting !!  So we have taken on both the guides from Toxic Oil and Sweet Poison and nothing else is allowed in our house. 

Something I have noticed is the lack of hunger , even the boys who are growing teenagers are not snacking just listening to their stomachs but heck when that stomach growls look out fridge and pantry !!  haha    Glad you are trying out some baking I am enjoying so much more now :) :)
