I did reply but it seems to have disappeared! I was almost a week late but all back to normal this morning thankfully! I'm sure that contributed to me not loosing as much as I expected in my first week!

Luckily my husband has tidied my scales away somewhere and I can't find them!

Morning! School closed again so another day at home! Boo!

Hi Amy! X

Yeah yesterday lost 7lbs and 8 inches. I was doing step 2 last week but have now switched to ss+ so hoping to loose sameish this week! I've you need any moral support just give us a shout on here! This site has kept us all going I think!

Hi Scotty! The first few days are hard but it does get easier I'm on day 8 now and feeling great! X

I'm struggling to keep my daughter entertained too! Gonna chuck her in the bath soon that should take up half hour, then maybe playdough and painting till lunchtime. I've really had enough of being stuck in the house now cuz of the snow! Perhaps ill drag her out for a walk later!

Glad you are feeling better kjw I woke up this morning not feeling hungry for the first time woo!

Not so far Rebecca if anything I had the opposite problem for the first half of the week! I've read that you can take laxatives if necessary tho x

Leave it way behind! Well done lovely all losses are to be celebrated! ((With a shake)) xxx

Jojo, yeah I was at work really busy day didnt have time to have soup till 2pm it was so bad I had a few sips and tipped it down the sink!! Got a shaker now tho for work x Dena- bloody hell 10 kids! And your only 34! U must be like Wonder Woman/ super mum!!!

Hiya!! Welcome! I've been on 810 for my first week and found it good but struggled to finish some meals! Now gonna try ss+ as more or less the same just less quantities of meat x

Rebecca I too need some energy to deal with my tired stroppy 3 year old lol x

I've switched to ss+ as I was finding the meals too big on step 2. i had eggs asparagus and broccoli for tea sounds plain but I really enjoyed it lol! Gonna do some exercise this week too as I'm feeling up to it now!

I'm feeling a bit deflated reading these lol but well done everyone amazing !! I've lost 7lb but 8inches! But I did have a heavy jumper on which I forgot to take off and I'm due on so that's not gonna help! And really this is only day 6 for me as I started last Monday lunch time! X

Gosh I hate Monday mornings! Have a good day everyone and good luck!! Rebecca- u can do a profile pic (avatar after 20 posts if u use a pc) Xxx ;)

Hey everyone! Glad we have all had a good day! I have been out most of the day so only just getting 5 mins to reply! Jojo I want to lose an initial 3 then another stone if poss to take me to 10st. Had quite a funny day visiting my husbands family. First his sister was offering me stew for lunch...

Wow kjw what a star!!!! That is amazing!!! I've been feeling bloated today I just don't feel like I've lost anywhere near that! I think I too will be jumping on the ss band wagon next week!!!

Don't kick yourself ruey! I licked a crisp yesterday! Hehe I'm sure you will be fine! ;)

Same here jojo I don't want anyone to know either so ill take porridge for breakfast ( I usually have porridge anyway so no one will notice that! And try making my soup in a mug mixing as I go so hopefully it won't be too lumpy! Eek! Or perhaps mix it up and have chicken and salad some days...

Woohoo we have lasted a week ( almost for me)! Good luck with your weigh in let is know to spur us on!! How was your night out Rebecca? I've been planning for when I have to do a Sunday dinner, ill have a chicken breast and some green veg and may try the stuffing so I shouldn't feel too left...

Some people say no to diet cuz of the citric acid but Karen (kjw) has them and other have said no effect on weight loss... You can have coke zero and apparently cheery coke zero... I will be searching the supermarket next time I'm there!!! Just made a cappuccino muffin, not like a real muffin...

Hey ladies just found this while searching around on net so thought I would share.... Muffin 1. Put a little hot water into a ramekin dish, or whatever you have - thick mug or similar (about 2 desert spoons to begin with - you can add more later if necessary) 2. Add the pack (whatever...

Lol I quite liked the veg and chilli ones so far but I do whisk and whisk them! Just had a boiling bubble bath as suggested with a 'Lush' bath bomb, I have been shivering all day and had the heating blasting! This is gonna cost me a fortune!

Yes I'm feeling a bit weak and achy, had loads of energy this morning but less and less through the day!

I've picked up a little bit now! Not eating my soup for lunch ( as it was minging) then having tea made me feel a bit sick but the food has gone down I'm feeling better! Hey I may even treat myself to a sparkling water this evening when watching Saturday night crap tv! I love take me out... Well...

Well done for resisting ruey! I can take or leave chocolate, my weakness is crisps and nibbles which my husband and daughter are currently tucking into in front of me! My daughter keeps offering me one I feel mean saying no thanks hun! Lol she's prob wondering what's happened to me! X

How is everyone doing this evening? I'm not feeling great! Really tired and feeling bloated after tea! :( being housebound hasn't helped! Sorry to be a misery guts lol x

cant wait to be allowed some bars!

Was meant to get weighed Monday so it's only a day difference. Omg just tried spicy tomato soup and it was horrible! In edible I had to throw it away! So powdery even though I used a whisk. So having a milky coffee instead!

I'm a bit gutted my consultant can't weigh me now till Tuesday pm! Boo :(

I'm doing step 2, but when I do the meals I'm cooking smaller quantities and leaving things out like yesterday I did the prawn recipe in the book but didnt have rice noodles so left them out. Used an app and the calories only came to about 100 so I hope that's ok? Will check with my consultant...

Oh and it gives me something to look forward to and makes me want to loose as much as I can by then x

Jody I've read to have a small meal if ur planning on drinking. I've got a hen do end of feb so I'm planning to have a proper tea ( were going to an Italian) then have a few vodkas and soda water. Not gonna over do it but we still deserve a little treat now and again! X

Oh and how much water are you all drinking? I'm trying to drink 6 or 7 pints but finding the time is difficult! I'm quite thirsty so maybe I should be drinking more? But the books says 4 that's surely not enough!

It's in the book that I was given and so simple I used more water than they suggested to make it more of a soup and you can also blend it! I may even try it without spices and a touch more stock to make for of a stew type thing for a change! Keep at it girls and hope your rumbling tummy stops...

I thought I would really suffer from headaches but none so far and I've only had two coffees today which is never heard of with me! Just made hot chocolate with an orange chocolate shake and it tastes amazing! The worst thing I'm finding so far is that I am absolutely freezing, I'm always cold...

Hi jody I started on monday too! How are you feeling? I'm getting into the swing of of things now I'm sure it will get easier, actually after reading some horror stories I'm finding it much easier (so far) than I expected! And can definitely feel a difference in my stomach already! Woohoo

My Dahl/soup was really satisfying I'm sure it tastes better today! And my daughter has hardly touched her pizza so ill be throwing that in the bin what a waste! She's off to bed soon too! So I'm about to down my umpteenth glass of water and sort her out! I still have a shake or soup left for...

That's good news then but since my last post I feel really hungry! Just put a pizza in the oven for my daughter and husband and that's not exactly helping lol it smells delish! But I'm defrosting some lentil Dahl that I made on day one for my tea so least ill be eating something. I don't like...

Oh and you are not alone my mouth tastes disgusting too!! Does anyone know if it matters if we don't have our 3 cwp products everyday? As I has chicken for tea I didn't feel I needed anything else?!

Hey everyone! Well my exam wasn't too bad so that's good! I've found that when I use a mechanical whisk it makes everything taste so much better! I had chicken and mushroom soup yesterday and actually enjoyed it! Just had my first shake, strawberry and it really was lovely but perhaps it tasted...

Hey everyone! Nice to hear from people in the same boat! I'm on day two and so far so good! I don't even really feel hungry! I think that's always been my problem even if I wasn't hungry I picked at crisps and stuff so already realising that I wasn't eating cuz I was hungry! I've had a busy week...

Hello everyone! I started the cambridge weight plan today. Met with my consultant who was lovely and she suggested I try starting on the 810 plan so sole source and having a small meal as well. So far I'm going great probably as I have had such a busy day! My daughter started school and I have...
