week 5 on lighter life

week 5 and i have lost 34 pounds altogether. :)
Though cant stop looking at food!
is this normal?
even bought a cook book the other day am i going mad??
 
Nope you're not going mad, I've been on LL for 19 weeks now and I still watch cookery tv, read cook books, smell food and even joined a recipe sharing website! I also cook all the time, I think it's just how some of us deal with LL. If it helps you and you still haven't lapsed then go for it I say!
 
me too
 
glad im not the only one,
i do go in the fridge and even sniff food,(mad i know)
and im turning into a of feeder with my family.lol
 
You're doing brilliantly, well done :)

I also buy cook books, though luckily that's easing a bit now but I do have a brilliant son who's good enough to let me sniff his meals :)
 
I go to bed and read cookery books before I go to sleep :D I also have a notebook where I constantly jot down recipe ideas and I also went through all my back issues of good food magazine and ripped out all the recipes I want to keep and copied down some others.
 
Whilst on abstinence, I became a baking fiend - bread, muffins, cakes, cookies, you name it. My family loved me! I became quite concerned with this slavish need to fill everyone around me with sugar laden goodies whilst watching them eat with undisguised lasciviousness. I had a friend 'diagnose' me with "feeder syndrome" - you know those strange men who feed their girlfriends like foie gras geese until they are so obese they can't move! Charming!
Now I'm on Route to Management, the urge to bake has left me but my son remembers that time with fondness!
P.S. I didn't cheat once!

Lasciviousness - fabulous word - love it!!!

I may have to try and work that into one of my submissions. Its clearly a word that deserves to be used more - rather than actually acting it of course!!
 
i love watching cookery programmes and when flatmate is cooking i ask what she's having and just have a good ole sniff!
