This time next week I will be sitting at a Intro night for the Miraculoss programme... It all sounds rather interesting and think it can be something that MAY work for me. One of the ladies in our FB support group has been doing it for the last 12 mths and has lost a great deal of weight so after chatting to her on the phone yesterday for about 30mins or so, I have decided that I will go along to the Introduction meeting and check it all out. OK it is $7-$9 per day but when I add up my daily hot chocolate and other crap that I have been buying, we can afford it as I won't be buying any of that stuff! I emailed the website and they estimate it should take approx 18mths or so going well for me to lose the 70 odd kilos that I need to lose!
One thing you do on the programme is weigh daily (lots of info behind that) and our bathroom scales have been playing up for some time so we got new batteries for it but yesterday I got on them 4 times (while waiting for the shower to warm up) and I got 4 different results!! Today, same result twice and a different result the third time! So today, we went to Briscoes as they were having a sale (SHOCK HORROR BRISCOES HAVING A SALE - for those that don't know - Briscoes have sales on a daily/weekly basis) and they had 50% of bathroom scales. I had seen a set of scales on their website but they didn't have any in store so we got another set and when I got on them this evening - full clothed, after 2 meals, a couple of drinks, nibbles etc I was 100 grams lighter than the old ones said this morning (and I was naked then)! So hopefully these new scales will be my friend as I embark on 2013!
Also got some new sheets while at Briscoes (as they were on sale too shock horror) for our new bed that is due to arrive in a couple of weeks. Our new bed has a much deeper mattress so we needed to ensure that the fitted sheet were deeper ones so they would fit the bed! Then picked up a new duvet cover while there (also on sale) as I am so over the 3 we currently have. So once I can get another new duvet cover, I will pack up the old ones and pass them on to the Sallies etc...
Right enough rambling from me - one day I might actually have a fun filled exciting blog to read! LOL

Good luck Karen and I mean that sincerely. That Miraculoss looks very similar to low carb crossed with low fat. Anytime you cut carbs you will lose weight and lots of it. I do hope it helps you. Whatever you do, you need to give up those hot chocolates!
I look forward to following your progress.
Hi Karen. Great to hear that you are so enthusiastic towards the new programme you are checking out. My healthier eating starts Monday - I'm still watching what I eat a bit this week - but just not being 100% strict with myself. It's warm up week here! I too love my hot chocolates, but they are going to be restricted to when I got out with friends for "coffee" in future - the poor mobile coffee man that calls into work daily is going to be shocked at me giving up my regular hot chocolates :)
The new program sounds interesting. I'm sure you will do well:-)
Isn't low carb combined with low fat bad? I thought low carb high fat OR high carb low fat.
