good luck hun, I originally started at 13.11 and am 5ft 6 and got down to 11 stone I have put on 1.5 stone since having my son so just need to shift the excess. If you can stick to it, it will fall off in no time. I find keeping a diary on here and looking at pictures and you tube videos of success stories keeps you on track if you feel less motivated.
The pre made packs are better if you are out or do not have access at work to a blender. I can only drink the packs if they have been blended so there are no lumps at all. The soups are ok as they are less lumpy. I have found the lemon bars a saviour as last time I couldnt have bars until week 3!

Good luck x
 
Hey thanks for the good luck wishes :)
Well done on your previous losses carly its to be expected to have a gain especially if you've just had a little one. you have done it before so you can certainly do it again :)

Well ive managed my first day but boy am I hungry ive decided im gonna have a early night. the family had pizza tonight it did feel abit odd nt having any but im glad ive made it through day 1 :)

I got myself weighed today and surprising im the same as I was 2 months ago I thought id gained my stats are 13 stone 2lbs im 5ft 4 and my bmi is 31.5 my goal weight is 9 st 7. I have to say the mint chocolate shake is delicious not so keen on the strawberry though.

Hope you all had a great day bring on day 2 x
 
Hi Becky,

I'm 26 too - starting on Monday. We have a very similar diet history, so I am looking forward to doing this with you! I'm a bit (lot) heavier but it will be nice to have a weight loss buddy - we can encourage each other together!

xx
 
Hi flicg I would love to have a weight loss buddy! I do struggle with diets we can keep eachover accountable let me know how u get on monday :)

Well day 2 complete and its been hard food just keeps popping in my head :(

Niggerling thoughts go on eat something argh but I haven't :) having another early night just so I stop thinking about food! Probley didn't help that I split three quarters of my last shake but didnt wanna open another or il be short. Looking forward to it getting easier.
 
3rd day complete! And its been pretty good ive not been so hungry and not thought about food very much at all. I woke up in a great mood dancing around doing the cleaning. Took my bf to the movies to see in betweeners 2 convinced him take a walk there n back with me instead of the car so managed a good hours walk today. I did have a diet coke at the movies but I dont see how it could hurt to much?
 
Ok sorry x

At the beginning of this diet I thought I was abit mad thinking I could do a diet with no food. This morning im feeling really positive maybe I can accomplish this after all its not as hard as I thought. Cant wait till weigh in thursday!
 
Day 4 pretty much complete and having a early night today has dragged and had a row with the mr so not in the best of moods. Woke up feeling a little giddy so I think I might be in ketosis abit of a headache but nothing paracetamol couldn't sort. Hope everyones had a good day xo
 
Morning!

Yay - diet buddies. Glad to hear you've stuck with it over the weekend. Had 1/2 of my first shake about an hour ago. Waited until I felt hungry, rather than just eating (which I usually do.) Got porridge for lunch and then going to have a soup for dinner - not sure which yet. I'm feeling ok so far - i'm looking forward to getting this first week under my belt and getting into ketosis. I got given some ketostix which I will use on Weds to give myself a boost (and see if i'm in ketosis) but then I have a colleague's wedding on Saturday night. Hoping that drinking water and not eating will go unnoticed...

I was told that coke zero is ok, but diet coke is not because of the citric acid in it? The citric acid can knock you out of ketosis, but i'm sure a small one wouldn't have hurt. Well done on walking there (and resisting the popcorn temptation!)

Have a good week!

hey yay on starting today!
im just on shakes because i try exante before and there soups was gross let me know if there ok as i may try next week :)
i feel amazing first 2 days was hard the last 3 days ive not been hungry at all i need to remind myself to drink the shakes.
ive heard that to about coke zero my local shop dont have them and i have a small bottle of diet coke every day i hope it effect my weight loss to much!
me and my friend done a picnic fo the kids today and my mate was like u know u wanna eat wasnt botherd at all just had a shake :) quite proud of myself i dont usally stick to things lol. i had a snicky weigh in this morn 6lb in 5 days not bad hey but not trusting it to proper weigh in.
hope you have a good day. stick with it we will be slim in no time :) how much do u have to loss?
 
Morning Becky!

Soup was ok last night - spicy tomato. The problem was that you have to make it up with cold water to a paste and then add hot, but not boiling water. Consequently, it was lukewarm. I did feel really full afterwards though which was good!

I got some porridges too but yesterday's was so watery, it was not overly pleasant - the flavour was good though! I'm looking forward to every meal at the moment because all the flavours are new, it's cool to discover them!

I've 5 stone to loose to get me to a healthy BMI - this takes me below my goal weigh though. I'm thinking this might not be a bad thing because it gives me a good buffer for the future. I would love to be there by my wedding day next May - that's my willpower when I start to struggle - thinking about looking beautiful and slim in that dress!

What about you?

FlicG - I had the spicy tomato soup last night too. I wasnt aware that you had to use hot water , i boiled the water out the kettle and stuck it in. I did make the paste first though but i stuck the blender in it and it was fine. It wasnt one of the better soups but hey ho. I find the rest of the soups really lovely.

have a good day x
 
I have four stone to lose I would be happy with 3 but I wanna look good in clothes so il aim for 4. Thats very much do able by may :)

Day 6 complete been a good been southend with the kids. Feel really worn out ive done alot of walking eagerly waiting for Thursday for my weigh in!

Glad you had a good day at Southend - I'm sure keeping yourself busy during the day helps. Sometimes when it's quiet at work I get really bored/hungry!
