Hi All!

Ridiculously nervous about starting both the diet and the forum but needed somewhere that people truly know what i'm going through. I've tried - and failed - this past few years with both WW and SW and at almost 19 stone i am pretty desperate now.
A few weeks ago i was diagnosed as Bipolar II, my self confidence is below floor level and i just need to get my bum in gear and find a way back to happy. Hopefully i'll find some friends along the way :)

Hi Sarah been on it 7days today lipotrim I mean it's hard but if you are determined you can do it , my mum put garlic bread in the oven yesterday and that was horrible had to get out of the house , but went back had a bath and kept going , I have weighed myself before I go tomorrow to be weighed and I have lost 1 stone , so that keeps me going I've just registered if you want someone to talk to if you feel crappy I would be happy to support you if you can do the same for me. Lisa
 
Hi Lisa, well done and thank you! Yes I'll be here and support anyone in anyway I can. It's so hard when the support isn't there at home! Hubby has finally started to realise I'm doing this with or without his support so has stopped moaning now :p I know it's his lack of knowledge but he's also ignorant of anything 'different' once I get through week 1 I'm sure I'll be okay. Not gonna kid myself it'll be easy but I know it'll be worth it :) just need to get through today, I'm so excited to start! Know my kids mean well so don't want to let them down, they booked a meal for my birthday! Belated seeing as we've all been doing different things so figure we'll use it as a send off :) roll on tomorrow!!! :D

Hi Sarah well just been and the done the shopping at tescos not the best visit there I have ever had did it super quick one because I don't want to look at it and two because on day 7 the milkshakes are going through me like a racing car not sure if this is normal but I suppose it's better than being the other way , bloody knackered today though feel a bit lightheaded but ok I think the weight loss is keeping me going cos I would of munched my way through tons and tons by now ... Is it your first day today ? Lisa
 
Hi Lisa well done with the Tesco! The 'racing car' doesn't sound too much fun though :( no I start tomorrow, just finding my way around here and getting to know people I really wanted to start yesterday but I know my kids would have been gutted after organising today for me :( I know it's not going to be easy but I'm surprising myself at how eager I am to start! Usually I'll take any excuse to put off diets! Sarah :)
 
Hi hope you have a nice day , I can't do diets I have no will power when I can eat but this is like a challenge to see if I can keep it up weigh in tomorrow hope my scales are right as it will be a reall boost but I do feel hungry all the time waiting for it to stop , but the first three days were the worst , I have been drinking decaf coffee but just bought normal might speed me up a bit , if you feel like you are going to give up email me and I will try and talk you out of it .. Just keep thinking weight loss and nice dresses well that's what I am doing anyway and so far it's worked and I am useless normally so can't wait to see how you get on Lisa
 
Oh I definately will, thanks :) and same to you! I have around 7 stone to lose so I know it'll be a long ride but I think I'm determined enough to make it this time :) how far do you have to go? (if you don't mind me asking!) Sarah :)
 
I have 3 1/2 stone to lose in all but I would be happy with 2 1/2 , I should be some ridiculous eyesight like 9stone !!!!! Never gonna happen but I would be happy and over the moon with 11 but I think I will struggle I carry alot of water and I think that is really what I have lost this week ,, body is probably in shock !!!! Gone from Chinese pizza and toffees to milkshakes lol I have got a blender now and I put some ice cubes in the blender then shake the milkshake upon the bottle you buy then chuck it in the blender and make sure all the ice is crushed it is soooo much nicer ....
 
Ohhhhhh! That sounds quite nice. I also like the sound of putting coffee into the vanilla as I'm a latte addict! Have you found anything on here about struggling to 'keep in' today? I bet someone has ideas, seems great on here :)
 
I am going to do that tomorrow the latte thingy not done it yet in case I didn't like it and waste a milkshake as they are the only thing you can have tried the chicken soup not sure about them either it's a bit like cup a soup which I don't mind but I didn't have the blender when I had it and it was really lumpy , last night I put the chocolate in the blender and hot water which was nice but the hot water seems to take the flavour away abit and make them oaty . Trying to wait till 4 to have my second one but I think I'm gonna cave in and have it now as water does not fill me up i hate water so I struggle to drink it , I do about 21/2 litres a a day. I think the minimum is two , drinking lots of peppermint tea got used to that but I am a fifteen cups of tea a day girl so it's been hard .. It's a bloody struggle but I am not going to let it beat me , I want to wear a dress and feel nice I'm 45 now and want a few more years to try and be a bit glam lol ..
 
Aww I'm sure you'll get where you want to be Lisa and hopefully after today you'll feel much better :) let me know what you think to the coffee in vanilla? Apparently the choc with peppermint tea is nice too?x
 
Hi I decided to have it today it was very nice but made it more of a drink than a food to me if that makes any sense , just has strawberry one with lots of ice and that filled me up more as it made nearly two pints it's more filling that way .nearly ate a bit of chicken today my mother made a Sunday roast and the s,ell drove me mad lol but I resisted ,
 
aww, well done for not giving in! :) i'm just making my plans for tomorrow now. Think i'm going to have the 'latte' for breakfast and was thinking soup for lunch but i'm kinda put off by the comments about it on the site, doesnt seem to have very good reviews :( have you tried it? I know everyones tastes are different but wonder whether i'd be better taking another shake to be on the safe side x
 
Hi well today's the day for you to start and the days the day for the weigh in Goodluck today hope you feel ok x
 
The chicken soup is not bad it's like cup a soup but the packet don't like hot water unless you blend it they seem to go very lumpy good luck
 
Oooooh Good Luck Lisa - let me know how you get on! Bladdy latte was foul :( ah well i guess no pain no gain :) xxx

Starting with maintenance instead of a diet. I just want to eat like a grown-up, but I have challenges.
