Anyone here not doing S and S but something similar?

Just wondering if everyone here is in slim and save? I know there are a couple of other companies with pretty much the a same products but they don't have their own forum here so thought I'd see if people are just joining in here instead?

I think maybe a general vlcd forum would be useful, as you say they're all pretty much the same really. I'll be starting again on 2nd Jan using The SML Diet, I think they're very good personally. I started on a vlcd about 3 years ago and lost 3 and a half stone but had to stop as I was a student and couldn't afford it, I tried again at the beginning of this year but really struggled to get into it. Feel more in the right place for it now though so thought I'd try again. What about you?
 
I've done it before but never for more than a week...always really struggled with the head stuff. This time, I have a different job (teacher) so am finding the weekdays much easier as I'm so busy. That and having a very short term, imminent goal (struggling to fit into my salopettes for a skiing holiday) has seen me finally make it to two weeks, and I'm currently in the zone, so hoping I'll make it til Christmas.

Ive dropped 13lbs in 13 days, and would like to drop another half stone before Christmas.

Not oth sure what I'm doing after Christmas yet.. I'll have about a stone and a half to go, but would like to resume eating and running...not sure which diet I'll follow. Tbh, might come back to S&s as it's so quick!
 
Ah I'm a teacher too! Sounds like you're doing well with it at the moment.

Hi Caz,

I think that's why there is a thread just called "Very Low Calorie Diets" On the main thread for everyone following a VLCD, so we can all share information.

I think they just like to keep the diets separate as even though VLCD'S all work in the same way they are all slightly different as I am on 4 packs, I know girls who are just on 3, and my dad is on a vlcd plan were he gets 4 packs and 2 snack bars a day so I think it's just to stop any confusion :) x
 
Yeah I've just spotted that one. Seems very quiet
 
Yeah the threads have been really quiet lately I think it's with a lot of people falling off the wagon with Xmas fast approaching, personally it's what's keeping me on track as I know I always gain loads over Xmas so I want to try and minimise it this year although I'm already dreaming of Xmas dinner!! lol :).

I bet they will get really busy in January with everyone starting their New Year diets!! lol x
 
Hi Starlight,

Just noticed your from Elderslie, I lived there myself for 8yrs up until this summer when I decided it was time for a change, we lived over next to the fire station :) x
 
Yeah now that I've spotted that there's a general one I'll probably just use that. Though I'll probably have a read on here still as it's very very similar so might still be able to get or give extra support at times.
 
Hey Caz...I remember you from cambridge :) Stay on here with a diary...SML is exactly the same as slim and save just different packaging.

We're all on a vlcd so does it matter what the name on the packet says? I'm starting on the 2nd Jan too caz so will be starting same time...2014 will be the year we succeed at this :D xx
 
Hello DM, I remember you too. That was my thinking too, it's exactly the same but just wanted to make sure I shouldn't not use it here. Really hope 2014 will be our year, faffed about far too much!
 
Dappy are you still (re)starting on the 2nd?
 
I'm doing a combination of Lipotrim, slim & save and also a product that for some reason I ant name on here as it gets blanked out (no idea why that is, anyone able to shed any light on it?)

I lurk as I can usually answer questions for new members
 
I know what you mean, me either. Looking forested to that feeling full but not bloated and just really healthy. My packs are arriving tomorrow hopefully, first job for tomorrow is to sort out the drawers we'll keep them in. Do you have a diary DM?
 
Hope your packs arrive today, not started a diary yet but probably will do, doing a 7 day challenge with some tweeters to start then take it a day at a time :)
