Good luck I started at a similar weight to you, I was 18st 6lbs that was just 10 1/2 weeks ago I've lost 3st 6lbs (still got about 5st to go) so you can do it!! I just have meal packs and water and the occasional dash of milk, sainsburys do a nice fizzy water thats blackberry and cherry...

Wow 26 to a 22 that's amazing well done. I think it's brilliant you celebrate such goals too many people(including myself once upon a time) look too far into the future and the mountain seems to high to climb. I'm really pleased for you and them 14s will come along so quickly. Good luck with the...

I know how you feel I put on just over a stone in about a month just before christmas, after my friend asked me to be bridesmaid. It's almost like I went into a panicky self destruct mode but then I got myself in the right headspace and here I am 3st 6lbs lighter. You are definatly choosing a...

Hello msjmc, good on you getting back into it fingers crossed for you, if I can do it so can you. I feel so good at the moment, I still have a while to go but it's nice to dread getting dressed because everything is too big rather than because you have to squeeze into everything and its...

i try to drink the 3 litres a day but im a bit naughty with my water sometimes and occasionally only get to 1 1/2 litres which is not good as it causes all sorts of horible things like dizziness and constipation so try your hardest to keep it up is my besty advice. good luck on your journey x

Week 5....-4lbs start weight 18st8lbs current weight 16st4lbs weightloss in 5weeks..... -32lbs 84lbs to go

I didn't feel able to exercise until about end of week three. Don't start with huge bouts of cardio, stick to some good resistance work. Pilates is really good. Using a kettelbell is good exercise. Shape.com has some really good excercise routines all about toning ect. X

I must admit this time round on my vlcd I feel really different. Before I was so focused on what I looked like and what size I was if my expectations were not met I felt horrible ( like fitting into those size 12 jeans in a month). This time it's all about health and I feel elated every day! I...

Amazing well done, keep up the good work you must be able to feel a difference already :-) xx

Well I had to weigh myself a day early as I don't know if I will get to mums tomorrow (where my scales are) and am pleased to report I have worried for nothing ANOTHER 5LBS OFF!!! That's 2stone in four weeks whoo :-). This diet is amazing I don't feel deprived as I can have milk and the savoury...

Week 3.....-5lbs Start weight 18st 8lbs Current weight 16st 13lbs Weight loss in 3 weeks...-23lbs 93lbs to go

Week three weigh in another 5lbs off :-) so that's 23lbs in three weeks I've gone from 18st 8lbs to 16st 13lbs in 21 days. I might treat myself to some new scales as mine doesn't do 1/2 pounds ect. This weeks goal is upping the exercise and cracking my water intake. I just wish I had taken a...

Well this week is starting to drag I always find week 3 horrible it's in between the initial buzz and the gruelling long haul lol. It's been ok though. I spent about 2 hours sat on the floor,on my computer listing things on ebay,there is no way I would have been able to do that 3 weeks ago. Also...

Lol it's surprising how exciting bones can be. I'm looking forward to having to sleep with a pillow between my legs again because of my boney knees, along way off yet but I can dream haha. Us vlcd'ers live such exciting lives lol ;-) well done on your loss x

Hello nefertari,(that's something I never thought I would write lol) I'm glad I've inspired you it makes it all even more worth while. I highly recommend slim and save. I've done Cambridge,lighter life and exante and I think it's the best one I've done! It's nice to have such yummy savoury...

Thank you. I'm pleased to report I'm wearing a pair of 18 jeans I haven't been able to get into for ages :-). I accidentally had another midweek peek lol. Another 3lbs off whoo. I've only been on it not even three weeks and that's 21lbs!! It's quite possible I may loose 2 stone in a month, this...

Hello, I've been on many vlcd diets and I definatly know something that didn't effect you on previous diets, like totm, can effect you when you start to diet again. Things like antibiotics can effect the diet. Also it can lessen the effects of contraceptive pills. This happened to my friend on a...

Well another good day. I had to remind myself to have my last pack. Dinner time pack was a bit of a disaster, I was so intent on sniffing the kids roast I burnt my pack lol,that will teach me. I'm really looking forward to this weeks weigh in. I'm really starting to get better at focusing on...

Thank you everyone I couldn't believe how much I lost in wk 2 I normally find I have a great 1st loss around 2-3lbs wk 2 then normally 3.5-4lbs there on. It's definatly a good boost. If I loose at least 4lbs this week I will have gone from the 18's to the 16's in just 3 weeks. Due to the snow...

Week 2 .......-6lbs Start weight 18st 8lbs Current weight 17st 4lbs Total loss in 2 wks 18lbs 98lbs to go

Well I've weighed myself.....-6lbs for week 2 that's -18lbs in two weeks. Really pleased.

Thank you donjon. Goodluck on your journey. That's the great thing about a vlcd if you stick to it you WILL get there and probably exceed your expectations. Like I said before a day at a time and try not to look to far into the future as with me that's when I start to waver. I'd love to hear...

Weigh in day today I can't do it yet the scales are round my mums lol, keeps temptation away. Did you know due to fluid your weight can fluctuate by around 7lbs through out the day. One of the little facts I learned at LL. I'm abit nervous because I am seriously struggling with the water. I've...

Well today has gone well, feeling fine. There is a question I was pondering over though. I have done vlcd diets before they bought in this you have to add a meal every 4 weeks. I did it solid for 20wks and was fine. When you add your meal do you still loose weight and are you hungry the next...

Good idea about the cafe latte I'm going to try it hot next time. I didn't really get on with it cold it had a funny after taste which was not good as it was the first pack I tried. Also banana does actually taste of banana milkshake, other vlcd diets with banana have a horrid tin type taste if...

I thought I'd start this thread to help new people try and gauge what flavours they might like so put in here the good the bad and the ugly. Just remember everyone has different tastes and, for most, your tastes change as you progress on the diet. This is what the packs reminded me of: vanilla...

Haha you always know its just going to be one of them days when the cat food smells nice lol. Did a major overhaul on the bunnies enclosure due to the snow. My knees wouldn't have coped with that a week ago amazing the difference 12lbs makes :-) feeling good the results in the mirror will be...

Wow well done. It's always such a boost in confidence as well when it doesn't feel too much like hard work when you start again. Goodluck x

Wow hamish's mum you have done really well,well done. I'm always secretly jealous of those doing a vlcd for the first time it's such an exciting journey because it actually works. As this is not my first it becomes abit of a chore even with the same great results, it's almost a been there done...

Thanks AdrianR I'd love to think I would be a 10 by may but my start weight is more this time so I think I'd be aiming abit high, but I will get there. Thank you too willpowerwoman. I think because of the way this diet works,even with a little exercise if you stick to it 100% you will loose...

Thank you willpowerwoman, my problem is the wedding isn't til end of may but the dress has to be ordered about 8 weeks in advance no idea what sze to get, might just buy a selection and sell the unsuccessful candidates on ebay lol. Well yesterday, day 7, wasn't my best day I hardly drunk any...

Hello congrats on your first weeks weight loss. In regards to your little wobble last night the only thing you can do is jump straight back on the horse carry on today as normal you might feel a bit hungry today but just stay focused. The only real mistakes in life are those you don't learn from...

Hello anyone reading:wave_cry:. I thought I would try writing my journey down on here as it makes it official and everyone on here seems so lovely and supportive to each other! I'm on my 6 day of s&s, not feeling too bad, just 'wanting' rather than actually being Hungary. This isn't my first...

Hello I'm on day 6 of slim&save 100%. I previously done LL and lost a huge amount but then babies started coming and the podge is back! I'm not feeling too bad abit weak but I don't think I'm drinking quite as much water as I could. What I really would like to know is, is it really ok to drink...
