Ok So I had my wi and I was a little disappointed. Only 2 1/4 lbs lost this week but it has made me stronger and more determined to lose this week. I shall keep with a minimum of 3 litres of water and will only have bar when at work as it's more convenient than trying to make a shake. I am...

Well I can't believe its wi night again. I am so happy to say I have been 100% ss! I have had a great week and felt very strong around food. I have turned down and amazing buffet, chocolate cake (my favorite) and even Sunday lunch. Looking forward to jumping on the scales to see the results...

Hi your stats are the same as mine so we can complete our journey together. I also wish to be 10st. The main thing is to drink plenty of water. The weight will come off just wait til your first wi with your consultant, it will all be worth it. Good luck and hang in there

So I had my wi tonight :) I have lost 5lbs which I'm happy with since I have been messing about. More of the same for me this week, 100% ss and at least 3 Ltrs of water a day :) How is everyone getting on?

So today is Sunday, and I know some ppl struggle at the wkend a but actually I find it easier when I'm at home. I have a routine of my shakes at 12,4,8 and drink my water regularly. At work I struggle more. As my fellow nurses no, you can't always get to the toilet ( big problem after 1.5ltr of...

Hi Claire, What step are you on? Before you know it you will be back in your size 10's :) I am on ss and a but like yourself. I lost 2 stone felt great and lost my way back to the start again. This time I aim to be 100% for 12 weeks and take it up the steps from there. Hope we can support...

Ok so I haven't been 100% but haven't been hugely bad either. Today I am back on track. I have 2 nights to get through then I'm off for 1 week :) I was away with friends at the weekend and it hit home that I have this huge desire to be slim and to do this for myself not anyone else! So here...

Well week one is complete :) I had my wi last night and lost 8.5lbs which I was happy with. Here's to week 2 :) I have 16 weeks before I go to Florida so I plan in staying on track and being as close to target as possible. How is everyone getting on?

Oh my that is a fantastic 1st week, well done. Now you know you can do it and stick with it you will be at your target in no time.

Hi everyone, sorry been on 3 nights and have been 100% ss which I'm so chuffed at :) hope everyone is doing well x

Hi how is everyone doing? I was dreading doing cwp on my nights but actually was surprising easy as I was so busy! Here's to another 2 busy nights and another 2 100% ss days :) Hope everyone is doing well

9lt of water? Omg how do you manage to drink all that? There is no way I could cope with that and I would say that's probably why your ankles are swollen is due to fluid :( what is you capillary refill like?- if you push your finger into your ankle for 5 seconds ( your ankle skin should change...

Hi my- journey, I can relate to you in more ways than one! I have also done cambridge before and regained all of my weight ( and more) due to emotional eating. I also lost 2 pregnancies due to miscarriage and an ectopic. It has taken me 6 months to sort my head and my head but I have made a...

Morning, I wouldn't worry to much about ketosis. If your 100% then you will lose weight. I know from doing this the last time that having bars early on can slow done going into ketosis due to carb content but 1 should be ok. It's day 3 today and I should be ok. Going swimming this morning and...

Hi everyone, would it be ok to join in your group and get support/ give support when needed? I'm on day 2 of ss and finding it surprisingly 'easy' so far and going onto nightshift tomro for 3 so hope it continues to be ok and I'm not hungry :) How is everyone getting on?

Drank 4 litres so far today and 100% ss. Feeling really proud of myself as I am coping well so far and actually enjoying it :)

Hi Colony, I did cwp last yr and lost 2 st then was so happy with my weight got complacent and here I am back at the start but I will finish this for good. How about you?

That's unfair that they are kicking off and actually makes me more determined to succeed and then say look it can be down I am slim and healthy and maintaining my weight!

Day 2 is going swimmingly, literally feel like I'm swimming as drank so much water lol How is day 4 going? How funny about your dream :) I couldn't sleep last night and as a result slept in for work with only 15 mins to get ready and walk/ feed the dog.... Oops

Well done on completing day 3 it's onwards and downwards from here :) I'm chuffed that I have succeed on day 1 with no problem. Here's to tomorrow for us both :)

Hi my name is Laura and I turned 30 in april this year. I have just returned from an amazing cruise where I are my weight in food! I have decided enough is enough. I am at my heaviest way and don't feel comfortable in anything I wear. I met my new consultant last night who is great and very...

I would like to join a 2 wk challenge if there is one. Today is day 1 for me and so far so good. I have done this diet before so know the challenges ahead but I feel my mind set is different and we have a great consultant to help motivate me along the way

Ok I've made my mind up I'm staying at home and sticking to ss! After all it's only day 1 and I don't want to have a slip up. I want to be thin and feel good about myself so I must stick to plan. Plus I'm enjoying sitting in the garden enjoying the sunshine :)

Today is day one for me and so far so good. Only had 1 pack as it's so hot I don't want anything but drank my 2 l water so far so on track for at least 3l today. My parents have invited me up for a BBQ which I have said no to but now in think ing should I go and just take my pack and not eat...

Hi everyone, tomorrow is my first day. I am looking forward to being 100% ss and will try and 'enjoy' my journey to a new slim and sexy me :) stick at it as I'm sure it will all be worth it

Just back from a 14 night med cruise on independance of the seas! Loved it so much and planning next one already but this time I will be happy with my weight and will wear all the pretty clothes I want to! Good luck. I am also doing ss as it's all or nothing for me! I find it easier in the nice...

Hi Letthesinshine, I have also just returned from a cruise and feel the exact same as you. Today I am cutting out rubbish and eating clean before I start cwp tomorrow. Like you I have done this diet a few times and always gave up. Not this time! I go away mid October and I would like to lose 4...

I have been messing about the past few weeks and although I haven't gained I certainly haven't lost. I aim to lose 14lbs in march RuthG -15lbs LizWhite29 - 10lbs Kiwichan - 10lbs Minnie64 - 14lbs Callumsmammy - 14lbs Chlo - 18lbs Lauraswift- 14lbs

I have the lemon and the mint chocolate crunchy bar. And then a choc mint shake. I aim for 3 litres of water a day and it seems to be working. As you said better to have 2 bars than give up. It's easier at work to grab half a bar every few hours than make a shake or soup.

Hi ladies, I have been struggling lately and my cdc suggested I try 2 bars and a shake a day. This week I lost 6.5 lbs so it's not impacted on my weight lose so far and I found it much easier this week.

I'm so happy I have lost 6.5lbs this week :) it has spurred me on for another week. I have bought 2 weeks of products as I'm at a spa next Sunday and will be off plan for a light lunch. Really looking forward to it. My goal for this week is to lose 4lbs bringing me back to my wedding weight of...

Well weigh in the morning was ok. I lost 4 3/4lbs and 4.5 inches so I'm pretty pleased with that. My consultant has recommended I have 2 bars on the days I'm at work as I was struggling to have all my products. So I will have 2 bars them my shake when I get home at 9pm will try this week and see...

Well u have been naughty yesterday and today and had some Chicken and salad both days. I know its fine but it's not ss. So I decide to come to the gym for a wee jog and use the video plate. I'm now going to head in for my regular 30 Min swim and a wee spa and steam room. I get weighed tomorrow...

Hi Ria, I have been following your posts son e last year. You have done amazing and although you have 'moments' you always bounce back. Like you I am here to complete the journey this time and get to goal. Good luck and stick with it :)

I'm so excited, I see a new number on the scales :) I'm into the 13's. I know people don't recommending at home but my scales weight 2lb heavier than my cdc's. I only weigh on a Thursday at home and a Sunday at my cdc. Thursday is my usual day to weigh at home and I will continue to do this in...

I would recommend taking senakot at night. It's very gentle and you shouldn't get stomach craps. Personally I wouLd avoid ducolax as these are laxatives and work differently! You could also try get movicol from your local pharmacy but I can't cope with drinking it but it is a still softener so...

Well I have been back on track for a few days. I am not posting my weight loses as I will only post once weekly on a Sunday when I see my cdc. I think part of my problem is I get excited about my loses then think 'oh that's good let's have a treat' it MUST stop!!! I have continued to go...

Lost polar bear, Well done for taking the step to get back in track. Like yourself I turn 30 this year and this WILL be the last time I diet so I'm determined to do it once and for all! Did you just start ss today?

Well I have had a roller coaster of a weekend. Back on track today! I have lots to do to keep busy today so shouldn't be bothered about mealtimes. I will be 100% today and not weighing myself until Sunday as don't want to get disheartened. Here's to a good weight lose in sunday

Oh dear oh dear oh dear.......I must confess I have been horrible not just bad :( I wen out for dinner and STUFFED my face! Oh my I feel so sick now! In my moments of weakness I was contemplating going to ww but think I'm kidding myself! This is the only diet that has ever worked for me that I...

Hi Laura, I'm glad I'm not alone :) I find I can have my first pack anything between 11-4 then it's usually every 4 hrs after that but I like my bed early as I work 12.5hr shifts so it doesn't give me much time to fit them in especially if I'm busy or working. I aim for the next week to have my...

Day 9 - I am continuing on ss. I am unable to attend my cdc this week due to work but will get someone to collect my packs so I can continue. I'm ok with this as just means a bigger weigh lose for my initial 'week'. I'm going for a swim this morning and then have various things to be doing so...

The past few days I have been struggling to have my 3rd product, is anyone else finding this? I know it's important I have it but really not hungry and can't really face having it :(

Well done that's a great lose in a week :) here to this week coming :)

Hi CDrome, Thank you I'm pretty chuffed with my 8lb lose :) I'm sure you will be great on Saturday if you have been 100%. Don't get me wrong I'm not hungry but it's more the habit of picking at night that I'm missing, don't want any food in particular. I've still to have a shake will wait til...

Week 1 done and I have lost 8lb which I'm happy with :) it's been a struggle at times but here's to week 2z how did everyone else get on?

Well done! That's great :) just what you need to keep you going for this week :)

Hi cdrome, well day 6 is done and I'm kinda looking forward to my wi Tomro but my official way in was meant to be Sunday but I'm now working so will need to reschedule but that's ok. How you getting on?

Here hoping Tomro is a new day and we shall be strong! I'm lying in bed watching weight lose ward and they keep showing food. I don't wanna eat but just have moments if weakness. I will not less this diet defeat me I shall prove everyone wrong and succeed !!! Are you with me Hayley?

Hi Hayley, I totally get where your coming from as I am struggling today to. Try not to worry about the pizza get back on track. I caved and had a bit of chicken and a half slice of ham :( could easily eat the crackers from the cupboard or better still my Lindt lindor :( but they will have to...

Well day 6 has been a struggle. I was doing well kind of..... Didn't get my first product til 4pm due to horrible work. I have been hungry and craving food ever since. Had a further product and just had my soup. The soup is yuk, I used to really like it but can't finish it. I was naughty and...

Hi Hayley, 8lbs that's great. I'm not weighing myself now until Thursday as want a surprise and hopefully it's worth it. How you getting on with ss?

Well day 5 is done and again I was 100% ss. I feel good tonight especially after my swim. I hope to go for a swim everyday that I'm off. Should help to time up as I lose the weight. I was going to start Pilates or yoga, will it be too much doing this and swimming in the same day? Both are light...

Well I decided to go for a swim after all and I now feel great :) swam for 30 Minutes and managed 36 lengths which I am happy about. Had a lemon bar when I came out. Will have my next product about 4ish and see if I can have my last one about 7 or8 pm. How's everyone's day going?

Wow well done that's fabulous and such an in entice to keep going :)

Day 5 - have lost another 1/2 lb which I'm happy with as that's 6.5 lbs since Thursday :) Today I have lots to do so will be busy just need to remember to drink my water. I might even go for a swim in which case will need to drink even more water. Have a good day everyone :)

Hi Hayley, day 4 was good. I was 100% ss but I struggle to have my 3rd product :( I might try different times but I really struggle :( I wouldn't worry about your latte it could have been worse especially if your not well. Chin up and get back on it today :) We shall complete our cwp journeys

My consultant is lovely and very supportive :) I have now 'topped up' my products and looking forward to the week ahead as I will have a lemon bar each day :) my taste has changed since last time I don't the diet. I have went off te soups :( I'm on nights night week which are always a struggle...

Do you know if the water and ribena are ok on cwp? I would be really keen to get some if there 'allowed' :)

I totally get where your coming from I would love a juicy apple or orange mmmmm but it's a good sign as it's all healthy not the usual choc or crisps :)

Day 4 - I have been 100% ss and the scales have shown a 6lb lose this morning :) I'm happy with that. I know I shouldn't weight myself at home but since I have started I will do my weekly weigh in at home but get measured at my cdc's. I have my first appt with my cdc today. I'm just going to...

Good luck with day 3. I'm now on day 4 and have about the same weight to lose as you. Look forward to your journey and keeping each other motivated x

Hi cdrome, today is the start of day 4 and I'm off to see my cwpc for my products. I have been using what I has left. So far so good, I have been 100% ss and lost 4lbs when I checked yesterday. How you getting on?

Oh fabulous thank you. I will try it Tomro I think as it sounds great :)

Hi, well done on day 3. Can I ask how do you make 'crisps'? I'm intrigued

Day 3 done and dusted.... Almost. I have been 100% ss and in so chuffed. I'm bed with hot blanket in watching casualty. I'm such a party animal lol

Stay strong, it will all be worth it. I just had chicken and mushroom soup and it wasn't as nice as I remember :( my husband is making his dinner which normally I would like but it's making me feel yuky the smell . Think I may have a nice bath tonight as feeling cold and don't normally do baths...

Well today is day 3 and man it's a challenge! I'm not hungry far from it as only had my first product just now. I have drank 1.5 litres so need to drink more. As I said in not hungry but I want to eat something, anything possibly a Chinese :( but I won't. I'm gonna wrap up and go a long walk...

Hi guys, without being horrible it sound like over flow. When did you last 'go' properly?

Yey day 2 done and dusted :) in so happy roll on day 3 :) think I may even go for a swim Tomro or maybe just to the shops lol

Well said and so very true. I didn't cave in for a chocolate actually it made me feel sick the smell of it all. I simply put the lid on them and moved them out of sight! Here's to a 100% ss day 2 :)

Hi Hayley, I am also 5'6" with the same goal as you 10st and size 12. I have even bought a pair of size 12 trousers I want to fit into :) It's day 2 for me and I'm finding it tough as at work families have handed in choc and biscuits and the girls are eating there way through a large box of...

Well day two is here! I'm up and ready for my 12.5 hr shift. Roll in bedtime tonight. I have a full headache which I hope doesn't get worse but I have lost 3lb so I'm very happy with that. I wouldn't say I'm hungry just need to drink some water. Have a good day everyone x

Try not to dwell in the past, look to the future and the excitement of the scales going downwards and the inches get less and less each week. 2014 is going to be a good year :)

Hi Cruella, Mum so sorry for your lose's, I know how hard it is to have a mc and understand the emotional eating! I was the same. The good thing is you have taken the first step and are back on track. I'm on day one today and have found it surprising easy so I'm sure I will have a shock in the...

Well it's been a good first day. Must go have my 2nd shake oops been busy and only just hungry. Drank my 2.25 litres of water plus water in shakes etc. I'm gonna walk my wee dog then possibly have a bath before bed. My mum gave me a steam cleaner today and I have been busy cleaning everything...

Hi mrs D, your story is very similar to mine :) good luck we shall both be successful second time round. :) it's my 30th in april and I'm a bridesmaid for my dear friend in may then go a cruise so it's a busy but big year for me. No room for not succeeding :)

Hi I tried them all last year when I started including the porridge. Only ones I like now are choc, choc mint and at a push strawberry. I love the lemon bars, choc chewy bars and malt toffee oh and cranberry :) I only like oreintal chilli soup and chicken and mushroom soup. I would say try one...

I have started ss today. I know how you feel but it's a new year and here's to a new you. You can do it :)

Well I'm just having my 1 st shake and I forgot how much I actually enjoy the choc mint shakes mmmm

Well I stood on the scales this morning and had a huge reality check! I am the heaviest I have ever been. Good thing is I'm back on track in a good mindset and I will never see those numbers on the scales again :) Good luck to everyone back in plan today.

Hi Hayley, I too am re starting this morning. I will be doing ss in a bid to lose as much as possible for my 30th :) good luck and look forward to supporting each other through our cwp journey :)

Hi everyone, I would like to join in. I am starting tomorrow and I am so ready for this. I will say 21lb :) good luck everyone, we can do this :)

Well today I had my 'last supper' which I really enjoyed but I'm also really exited about starting cwp Tomro and this time not stoping until I reach my target weight. I must admit I'm a little apprehensive about jumping on the scales in the morning as not sure I wanna see the horrible number...

Well done for working trough the cravings. This year will be a good year for all. We shall all reach our goals and feel great about it. Good luck on your journey. I start mine tomorrow

Well done for resisting the pizza, it's not worth it. Just think how amazing you will feel when you get to goal :) I admire everyone like yourself who has been good at this time of year. It must be so tough as food is such a big part of this season. Well Done!! I am starting on the 2nd and...

Hi sazzle dazzle, Thanks for your confidence boost. 201; is going to be my year of good things, I know it will be. I have up initially as like yourself I want to have fun but then when I was going to restart I had a horrible few months and my head was messed up, I was off work for 3 months and...

Good luck, I am also a returning cwp and hoping to finish what I started this year.

Hi, I'm also restarting. Done cap last year and lost 2 at in 7 was then gave up :( so gutted I didn't continue and instead put all the weight back on! I have 5 at to lose for may but am taking a st at a time. Happy cep journey everyone. I will start on 2nd Jan x

Well I have made the 'first' step again! I have contacted my old cdc to get a consultation in a bid to start my journey ( for the last time) in January! The last 3 months have been horrible for me and as am emotional eater I have gained all the wait ( and probably more) since my first journey! I...

So I feel off the Wagon and didn't complete a day 2. I'm back on day 4 ss and so far so good. Hoping for a decent first week wi to keep me motivated but I figure if I stick at it and lose 4lbs a week I will be at target for Xmas :) now that's exciting :)

Hi how you doing today? I'm on day 4 have founder not to bad all in all. I work shifts and find it easier On my days off! Doing nightshift tonight so have to split my packs up

Hi, I have restarted today! I previously lost 2 stone and went on holiday and gave up and started my old habits. I would like to lose as much as possible maybe 1 1/2 stone by 19th October as I go to Florida. Hopefully we can support each other. Good luck for Tomro x

Hi ladies, I'm on day 2 of my restart. Finding it ok s far but trying to keep bust and not think about meal times :) I would love to buddy up and give/ receive support when the going gets tough. I'm dreading the weekend as I have organised a fun day and there is food cakes etc everywhere :(...

Well it took me a little Longer than hoped to get started but I'm on day 2 and hers to another 100% ss day. Yesterday was good just kept busy but I have woke this morning with a very loud rumbly tum! Water water water for me :)

Wow your weight lose is amazing and a total inspiration. I am of similar weight to you and would love if I could lose weight that quickly. I'm only in day 2 ss so fingers crossed!

Thanks suki I always find the 1st 2 days the hardest so after tomro I will be fine (hopefully). Have my brothers wedding in sept and a huge charity holiday in October so would like to be at target or close to by October :) Do you have any occasions keeping you going?

I'm so chuffed with myself. Day one done and dusted 100% ss :) been for a nice walk this evening too :) I have another busy day to to so here's to day 2 100% :)

Hey Tilley I'm on day one today of my second cd journey. This time I will not stop until I reach my target and happy weight! I have had 2.5ltrs so far and only 1 shake. Will have another shake at 5ish them one about 9 before bed. Usually have first shake at 1ish. So far so good today. Just...

Hey mrs p take senna I find it more effective than ducolax. The first time I done cd I was terrible with that issue and on ss you don't get enough fibre hence why it happens. On ss+ your having a bit of fibre in your diet so not as bad . Hope that answers your query :)

Hi ladies, I have just read thro the thread and your all very supportive of each other, it's great! I am re starting cd today. Previously lost 2 st and then live got hectic and put some back on as started old habits :( I would really love to join in your thread and help and be supported on...

Hi, this is my 2 Nd attempt at Cambridge. I done well the first time but then life became hectic and I had to stop. I know this diet works for me so I just need to find the will Power! I am going to start tomorrow with some packs I had left over. Fingers crossed I can stick to it as I'm working...

Have contact my CDC as I feel I want to start a fresh on day 1 with no bad bits behind me so I'm sticking in there but Saturday will be my official day one with a...

Well done Cham :) a wee bit milk won't hurt! I'm up and ready for another 100% day. I'm taking a bar for my lunch and will have my other 2 packs when I come home. Really looking forward to my day but I must drink drink drink :) Good luck x

Hey Cham sorry was abust sunny day :) I managed 100% ss despite the Ice cream and cream cakes on offer. How did you go? I have my first day at uni tomro so not sure how it will go. Taking a bar with me to have and lots of water singers crossed I stay strong :)

That's a great plan Cham :) I will try check in bit I'm On a 12.5 hr shift tomro :( but will try check when on toilet breaks from all the water I will be drinking. I plan on having 3 packs no milk etc only water and probably 3ltrs + of it:) If I don't get in during the day I will make a point...

Hey Cham, wow that's a lot of running about. Go you! I'm sure you will reach your mini goal with burning it all of yesterday :) I'm ha ing an early night tonight as have a busy week ahead as working full time and starting uni! This will really test my will power lol

Ok so as I said back on track! Had a big night last night so feel delicate today but back on track! My goal is daily to make it through at 100% ss. I will confess all 'slip ups' but hope I won't have any :) thanks for your support Cham its much appreciated :)

Hi Lauren you should be fine taking both as they work differently! On e you have a good rhythm I would cut back to 1 movicol daily and take it from there

Cham I'm annoyed to say 'but I feel off the wagon AGAiN!' Totally back on track no planned nights out until 31sr July so I will stick to it 100% ss or ss+ Saw your pictures and they have really motivated me. What height are you?

Wow Cham, you look great. Did you enjoy your run? You have totally motivated me

Hey fifty. How's it all going? I have been fine since returning to cd. I'm actually glad to be back on it and not have to think or plan ahead for meals etc. Look forward to seeing your progress :)

Yeah water flavourings are allowed on ss after 2 weeks. Personally I don't like them but know ppl that swear by them :) Glad your feeling a bit better.

So chuffed, I'm finally back on track! I managed day 1 yesterday and feeling really positive and motivated today :)

Is it plain water or sparkling water you drink? I find if I haven't drank enough when I wake the next day I feel nausea's and dizzy and after 1ltr feel much better. Have you tried the water flavourings? They may help you get through the water :) Stick with it as I'm sure it will pass, have you...

Dablaksista, that's a shame that your feeling so low. I'm happy to chat if that's any use to you? I have just had 5 weeks of pigging out as I had so much going on. I will be honest if your not 100% in the diet then I found it doesn't work, for me it's all or nothing. I have finally got back in...

My main tip would be sip your water throughout the day don't gulp it in large volumes. It hits your stomach and yuk! Sips keeps you full throughout the day and hunger at bay I have had 5 weeks off plan and back today just completed day 1. Everyone is different but I have had no headaches, dizzy...

That sounds great 5-8 , Miles jees my wee dog would be loving me if I done that, do you have set routes you walk? I may need to start something similar although I enjoy the gym and classes. I know how you feel about your shape. I'm a hour glass and my waist is tiny but have massive hips and...

Cham you are doing amazingly well :) won't be long until you reach your goal for sure. Keep up the great work :) I will be following your progress hopefully

Scotslass, I was organising a big fundraising event and life was very hectic. Just had to much going on to concentrate on the plan. So far so good today I have had my 1.5lts and had my first pack at 13.30. Regarding the bars I found the chocolate and the toffee ones are great if you put them...

Hey Cham, I have a lot more than you to lose but I am so determined! I need to lose 2st 5 lbs as of this morning. I do weigh myself daily but my CDC said I shouldn't so not really sure. I'm a bit like you that seeing the scales go downwards helps to motivate me so certainly for the first week...

Hi everyone, Hope you dont mind me joining in. Today is day 1 again for me, I had about 5 weeks off plan. Once you get your head in the right frame of mind this diet is great! I was very skeptical at the start but having seen the results in weight lose, inch lose and improved health I am back...

OMG, I have given myself a stern talking to today. I have not been on plan properly since start of April. In about 5 weeks I have gained 7lbs through eating rubbish!!!! I am back 100% ss today! I have still been having the compliments of 'your looking great' but my head is back in the game once...

Sunflower I'm up for the challenge :) challenge for m will be updating te table as haven't worked out how to do it from my phone/ iPad yet lol Will start challenge from Tuesday :) for 14 days?

Ok so I have had a very busy few weeks and I have been off cd. Today is day 1 restart and so far so good :) 1.5litres water drunk, still to have a pack which I will have soon usually have about 1pm then 6pm then before bed so here's to my first ss day :)

Hi Cham, how's things going? Tomorrow is day 1 again for me :( had my big charity event yesterday and eating was not an option as we were so busy :) hoping that will have helped prepare me for my challenge of 100% ss from now u til I reach goal :) Just gonna read through the diaries for...

Hi day 1 for me (Friday) was my birthday so I most definitely was not ss :( but I was straight back on it today and have been ss and drank my 3l plus exercised loads at a shopping centre promoting my charity event for 8+ hrs. Off to bed early

Thanks for the details slim :) can I please be added to the mini challenge I'm back and ready for what lies ahead :)

Hi ladies, What does the next challenge involve?

So far so good on the re start. Just having my first pack :) I can totally do this

Ok today is day 1 of the restart on ss!!!! I am off work until Sunday and have so much going on the food will be the last of my thoughts. Although my birthday is Friday it will just be another day for me of ss! Wish me luck :)

Morning, I'm restarting day 1 today I managed 8 weeks of ss but the last few weeks I've benn messing about. So today it's back to basics! Good luck with day 2 x

Right tomorrow is Monday it's a new week and a fresh start on ss! I am disgusted at myself for what I have eaten the past week and I MUST get my but back in hear and lose the rest of my weight so I can get to target! I aim to lose 7 lbs in the next 12 days. Please help motivate me, kick my butt...

Hi, I only even shake my shakes? I love my blender bottle and carry one everywhere I go its great :) would definitely recommend getting one :)

Hoya can I please be taken off the 14day challenge and I will join in the next one :( gutted to be leaving but lacking motivation right now so sticking to ss+ Be back soon :)

I volunteer for dream flight, we take seriously ill and disabled kids to Orlando every October. You should look it up its a fab charity and totally worthwhile. I have been with them now for 7 years and my whole family is now involved in fundraising as they know how amazing it is for the kids :)...

Yey congratulations that's great news :) bet your really chuffed?! I'm off to Orlando in October with a charity I volunteer for. I wanna be a wee skinny Minnie especially as its a very physical holiday pushing chairs about. Where about a in Florida you off to? I'm sure you will definitely have...

Hey Cham, well it a rurally wasn't as back as I had thought!!!! I put 2lb on but still lost inches which is weird. I'm fully back on track in the morning and want to lose 7lbs in 2 weeks! I know I can do it if I stick with it so jut need to stick with it :)

Cham you have done so well to get here, I'm suee you will be in the 10's soon enough. How much more do you want to loose?

Oh dear wi day is here! This is going to be interesting! I've had a terrible week, followed by totm and insuperable bloated. I know I haven't lost its more a question of how much I have put on :( Right I need to get back on plan 100% even if its ss+ for a few days but I'm totally craving sugar...

Wow! You look amazing well done. That's great news that you have managed to lose/ maintain after such a great lose. It gives me confidence that I too can do it..... When the time comes

This is a great motivation. Well done. I can relate to a lot of these, especially doing it for myself!!!! I can't wait to go into shops and choose the clothes I like and have a small size rather than just looking and being jealous :( You will soon look at this list and all of them will be in...

So far so good back on track today :) I think I have the 'naughty' well and truly out my system so fingers crossed! Saving my first shake til lunch then one before the gym and final one before bed! Everyone is doing so well in both challenges, I'm so chuffed for you all and I'm sure I will be...

Oh Jees do I really wanna start day 1 with totm jus arriving? Mmmm I'm determoned

Right my head is back in the game ( I think). Planning on a ss day today already very hungry so off for some water and maybe peppermint tea! How's everyone doing?

Thank you so much everyone you are all so supportive I really appreciate it. I really am gonna be good Tomro and already have a busy day doing housework, walking dog, gym etc so will keep myself busy.

Hey slim, thanks for the words of encouragement/ tough love! I have been better today but not 100% ss. Work is really crazy at the moment and I'm lucky if I have time for a drink never mind anything else :( I'm off now until Monday so my aim is for 1 day at a time ss. Fingers ceossed

Omg feel like I have a cold, and have been hit by a bull dozer ;( never mind have my 80g salad and tinof tuna at the ready for today. Fingers crossed it helps me stay on track

Really sorry to let you all down but I have really struggled lately and have so much going on. Going to try step 3 for a week so will need to leave the challenges :( I will be back once my head is back in the game. Good luck to you all x

Really struggling, going onto step 3 for a few days. CDC says to try for a week but will try a few days and see how it goes. Anything is better than what I'm having just now! What can I have on step 3? At work but wanna pop into asda on way home

The kids will be doing it so that is enough for me not to have any lol have a good day. So far so good :)

Right I'm back on track today! I have shakes and porridge with me to get me through my 12.5hr shift. Planning in doing baking with the kids today but I won't be tempted at all! No bars until the weekend and I'm firmly back in ketosis! Have a good day x

Ok confession time I have drank 3 litres water Andrade exercised all day at work but I confess. Due to being at the safari park longer than expected then work load when I got back to work I was unable to have porridge so I ate 2 home meatballs :( I have since come home and had a shake and bar so...

There is 2.2lb to 1kg so your lose is 1.93kg. Well don't that's a great lose and motivator to keep going :)

Well done on your 5lb. Keep at it and the inches will come off in time, I'm on week 8 and have about another 2 stone to go. Keep up the good work and you will soon reach your goal :)

Thanks, considering getting it altered to wear to my brothers wedding in September.

Wow that's great Cham! We can always count on oh to be honest . The 10's is great. You can have much left to lose surely. Keep up the great work

Enlightenme lose 10kg lost 0kg Jillybeans lose 10kg lost 0kg Laura swift lose 8.64kg lost 1.36kg Sunflowerlady lose 10kg lost 0kg Mammamia lose 10kg lost0kg

This is me yesterday trying on my prom 11years ago :) I'm so chuffed its actually big for me :)

I have joined up a few challenges to keep me on track one is to lose 10kg in 6 weeks and the other is 14 days of 100% Fingers crossed I can keep up with the challenges. At least your picking on the right things I just fell onto the sweetest things I could with my mouth wide open. Even chewing...

It was a split session between gym and walking :) looking forward to updating my chart for the 10kg challenge as I have lost 1.36kg this week and I wasn't well behaved :( hoping for more this week to stay on track for loosing the 10kg :) Hope everyone has had a good day.

Well the scales hasn't no ed this morning which I was actually glad about. Went to the gym for a run then a big walk tonight so a total of 2 hrs exercise. Been 100% today on ss just having my last shake. Have had 2 shakes an a soup. Going to do the same Tomro as I was relying on the bars so...

So I have been 100% today on everything. In total 2 hours exercise so I'm chuffed although was a cold night to go walking. Slim- do we have a chart/ table for the 10kg challenge ? I'm hopeless and can't see it :(

That's good news :) will be good to get back at it! What kind of training do you do ? Is it all running?

So far so good completed my exercise with more though out the day with dog walks. Also half way there with water. It's gonna be a good day. Trying to have a day of no bar as I feel I'm depending on them too much. Shakes and soup for me today!

I'm on week 4 day 3 just heading to the gym to complete this. Really looking forward to reaching the 5km not bothered how long it takes me to run it but 5k would be an achievement :) how's everyone getting on?

What a fabulous reason to lose a few lbs. you want to feel your best on your wedding day and I'm sure you will! As for Florida it will be getting nice a warm and you wann be able to wear what you want without an worry. Good for you. Look forward to following your journey :)

Right from today no more picking I Promise myself I will be 100%!!!! I didn't make the gym last night due to husband having to go to a&e but I'm going to head there now and do a double workout and hopefully it works :) I will take each day at a time but want to be 100% until my wi on Saturday...

Here's to a 100% on all thee today! I'm heading to the gym this morning to set me up for the busy day ahead of me. I really feel much better once I've done excersice :) Happy Monday everyone :)

I am happy I am totally back on track Day 3 100% on everything , 1hr walk with dog and now off to the gym for a run. Feel great and motivated. On a plus side I managed to get into my prom dress from 11 nearly 12 years ago and it's still stunning although needs altered if I'm wear to my...

Gutted to say I haven't been 100% ss today. I have drank my water but night shift is a real struggle :( promise to be 100% back on track tomorrow. Ok so updating this post from earluier in the night. I must confess i have been a pig and need a kick in the butt!!!! PLEASE HELP. Im disgusted at...

Day 1 100% on all three things :) so chuffed as usually on night shift I pick all night and I haven't. Just heading to bed, have a great day everyone

Ludog, that's great lose of inches and body fat. I also go to the gym and have lost inches more than weight but as long as my clothes size keeps going down I will be happy :) Think it just depends on the individual as I know I used to just want the scales to change but my attitude has changed...

Hey how did your wi go? The may thing is you are back on track and if your every tempted again just remember how you felt the last time, that's what I do and it totally works as its not worth it :)

Morning ladies, I thought the challenge had started lol not that I would have done anything different :) I start nights tonight for 2. I always struggle but here's hoping I have a plan :) have a good day everyone

Well I have been 100% with water and ss although I did have 2 bars but still only 3 products does that count? I have also don't the excercise bit as was at the gym and swimming :) hopefully it's been a successful day for everyone. I really need to focus and push thro this totm! I hate pmt :(

I'm just gonna hop into bed, been at the gym for a few hours and then a swim and sauna to kill time as didn't wanna eat anything I shouldn't :)

I have a chicken breast in the fridge but I will resist! Going to the gym and a swim and when I return I'm outing my pj's on and jumping into bed so I don't eat anything!!!!!! How bad is that :(

Oh I'm really struggling today! I'm pmt and wanna eat everything in sight! My stomach is going crazy! Help

It all makes sense now..... I'm so flipping hungry I could eat anything and I mean anything. I'm staying strong but just realised I'm pmt, hopefully it passes soon! I'm also very narky but will put that down to hunger and pmt :)

Hi Rachel how you getting on?

Well done Julie that's great :)

Well day 1 of the new challenge I have been 100% ss and drank 3litres. It was hard not to pick on something/ anything but I'm gonna head to bed early so I don't eat anything I shouldn't . Hope everyone is doing well x

So far today I have been 100% still have 1 pack to have but trying to hold off until 6.30 at least. Everywhere I look there is sweets and choxolate and althought I know I can't eat it as a: on cd and b: it's for a charity event it's still very tempting. I have decided I don't even like sweet...

Well said stu! A lose is a lose at the end of the day :)

Welcome, this site is great for support and motivation. You will reach your goal in no time, is it ss your doing?

SlimGorgeousMe Sunflowerlady Enlightenme2 Jillybeans lauren2244 Lauraswift Hi I have signed up for the 10kg challenge but would also like to be part of the 14 day 100%. I was only 100% on Sunday of the last challenge but I'm back on form and raring to go for the next while and shift those...

Oh no, I've been out all day had a bar when I was out and my soup at 1900 now I'm shattered and heading to bed and can't face my 3rd pack I know it's not good to miss it but I really feel exhausted, not sure if I'm coming down with something. Missing 1 pack surely won't make that much...

Heytuckinurbelly, how did wi go? We are all waiting patiently to hear :)

Tuckinurbelly good luck for your wi and be sure to let us know how you get on :) I am feeling really motivated, going to try stop weighing myself daily and just wait for a weekly surprise! Here's to a great challenge in time for our summer bodies :)

Hi Cham, I have a working cocker spaniel who is hyper all the time. Try walk him 3-4 times a day once for at least and hr and to be honest he would walk for hours. He is a typical daft spaniel but daft on his terms :) You dogs sound lovely, my husband wants a pug but won't have 2 dogs at the...

Eeeee yuk! Don't like the butterscotch shake! Will stick with mint and chocolate from now on

Well done! A lose is a lose :) I was the same this week only lost 2.5lb. Congratulations on resisting the ice cream that amazing will lower. Keep up the great work :)

Fab thanks jillybeans, I looked for one with no alcohol or sugars so it doesn't affect my weight lose :)

Another gym session complete although my calf feels tight tonight so done some extra stretching on the vibrio plate. I am determined to see a great weight lose this week and inch lose. Even if it kills me :)

Ladies, I know your a fountain of knowledge so is it ok to use ultra des breath spray? I'm paranoid about bad breath it's one thing I hate! It doesn't have alcohol in it so I think it should be ok......any thoughts?

If your craving is bad I would have a could bits of chicken, it won't do any damage as long as its only a few bits. Other option is to keep busy in the hope the craving goes away :)

That's my problem too. Today I'm sorting out my wardrobe and slowly but surely have less that fits which is great but I must save some pennies to go on a spree :) good luck everyone. Here's to the next 6 weeks and 10kg lighter :)

Need to find my motivation today. Have all these great plans of what to do but it's that actual doing it I'm struggling with! Going to try get started on housework but its a lovely day so may go a big walk with my dog! I will compromise, I will get 1/2 the house work done then walk the dog...

How was your weekend away? Hope you had a lovely Easter x

There was a march challenge that everyone put there name and what they wanted to lose and what they had lost. So..... Laura swift lose 10kg lost 0kg Then as people had they wi they would update it? Everyone's wi day is different so it was always getting updated which kept everyone motivated...

Team? I just run for myself it really helps me destress and its time to myself. I don't compete although I would like to aim for a marathon as I'm heavily involved with 2 charities :) I don't find I get hungry as I make sure to have a bar before I run then by time home and sorted I have my...

Morning jillybeans :) I was bad and had fruitella chewy sweets didn't even enjoy then have decided I don't have a sweet tooth anymore! Back on track for the new challenge. Will there be a table to track progress or weight lose? I'm still lazing in bed :) gonna talk the dog a long walk...

Hi is there a link for the new challenge yet? I'm looking forward to it and will stick to plan! I must :)

Wish I had seen your phrase about knickers beforehand ate the fruitella :( Welcome back and in sure before you know it your size 12's will be fitting. You know the diet works if you stick to the plan so its all about sticking to it and then maintaining it This is me starting week 7 and I'm...

Aaahhhh what am I doing?!?! Although I felt sick last night and only lost 2.5lb I have ate horrible nasty fruitless sweets at a fair today. Luckily the packet is finished and I will not be able to eat any more. Going to the gym in the hope to burn off the sugar and sweat it all out. I didn't...

To be honest I'm on ss and don't have a problem. Given I only run about 10k but its enough to aid my weight lose :)

Well I had a wee 2.5lb lose and 1 inch but I'm pleased with that. Back on plan today 100%! Out at a fair and have my water and a bar with me so I will be 100% no if bits or maybe's!!!

Hi ladies thanks for the support. Jillybeans not sure it will be 2lb never mind 4lb as although I was 100% cd until last night I haven't been for a run all week :( back on track today. Sounds silly but got up early to take dog a big walk before wi in 10am. Will let you know on I get on...

Well after my binge on 1/2 Easter egg yesterday I well and truly feel sick..... Still! Went to bed with sore stomach and cramps and have woke up with severe cramp in my calf and still feel sick. Not looking forward to wi this morning!!!

I can't believe I'm gonna say this but after a horrible day at work I have caved in! I ate half a small Easter egg and boy do I feel Ill!!!! Within 30 mins I have cramps feel sick and not to mention bloated. I can honestly say as a previous chocoholic that it wasn't even tasty :( Got my wi in...

Jolly beans if you want to make the brownies extra special put a mini cream egg in the middle and bake, the chocolate melts and leaves the gooie middle mmmm Stay strong, don't lick the bowl its now worth it

Another 100% ss and 3 l water drink :)

Six weeks would be realistic I think as 10kg is quite a bit especially if you are closer to target. Count me in :)

I'm sure you will be fine :( that's not going to do any damage surely :) I really want to bake Easter brownies but I don't trust myself lol Stay strong for the rest of the night x

How long will the challenge be on for? I'm just worried I won't be able to keep up as I usually lose 3-4lbs a week

Welcome back. Your determination is very evident and I'm sure you will succeed I'm on week 6 and scales haven't moved muh this week so hoping for a big woosh before Sunday. Look forward to following your journey

Hi, I would also like to join the next challenge. How's at lbs is 10kg?

Hi, I have been going to the gym since mid way theo week 1 and honestly feel fine but everyone's different. I haven't been running this week and have only lost 3/4lb. Bit sure if that has anything to do with no running :(

Really gutted stood on the scales this morning andi e lost a total of 3/4lb this week :( seriously! I have been so good 100% only thing is I haven't been at the gym running this week. That shouldn't make that much if a difference should it?

Good luck, you can do it :) what festivals is it you organise? I have been in the plan for nearly 6 weeks and loving it. It helps as ss takes food out the equation so you know you can't even have a little bit which has always been my problem. Look forward to following your journey

Hi, I have been on cd for nearly 6 weeks now and to be honest I never had any problems the first week it was the second week I struggled but everyone is different. The main thing is to drink plenty of water as it really does help weight lose and helps you stay focused! Good luck x

Hey the lat bit is always the toughest to lose no matter what diet. You have done fantastic to get this far and have to do what's best for you. If that's low cal low carb then so be it your more likely to stick with something you feel 100% about than something your doing half hearted...

Evening everyone. After another 12.5 hr shift I can honestly say I've had a great day. Went out to the cinema and weather spoons for lunch and had 2 pints of water and my bar! I fed the young person lunch and he also had crisps, an Easter egg and chocolate buttons( my favorite) I can honestly...

WellI was successful I'm so chuffed the kids had macaroni and then crisps and Easter eggs and buttons :( I had my bar and lots of water So pleased with myself as it was a challenge but I managed

Oh man just packed fizzy juice, crisps, Easter eggs and chocolate for everyone after they have there lunch for in cinema. I have a bar and I am determined to stick with it! Lots if water for me although my favorite chic buttons are in the bag but I will resist!!!!

Oh it's gonna be a tuff day! Taking the to at work to the cinema and pub for lunch! I will take a bar with me and drink plenty of water. Fingers crossed I can survive and resist all the yummy food

Oh it's gonna be a tuff day! Taking the to at work to the cinema and pub for lunch! I will take a bar with me and drink plenty of water. Fingers crossed I can survive and resist all the yummy food

Hi ladies just finished a 12.5 hr shift surrounded by nice home cooked meals and fresh home baking! Can honestly say I wasn't bothered by smells and enjoyed my porridge for dinner :) Another 100% ss and 3.5l to drink although may regret that later when I'm up during the night :(

Slimgorgeousme It was a Cambridge bar :) no naughty food has passed my lips! I'm determined to be 100% for this challenge, it's really helped me stay focused and motivated :)

Another day 100% ss and 3.5litres drank. Away to bed early as I've had a hungry day and that way I won't eat anything bad! Night all
