Good luck -hope it goes really well.

I've done WW before and just to treat myself with food, now I'm trying to get into a headset where I no longer use food as a reward, so think buying yourself something nice (my dh buys me a nice bunch of flowers every week that i've lost) is a much better idea!

Week Five Weigh IN!! Sorry. should have put week FIVE weight in - doh!!! Not sure how to change the title!! Clare

Thats brilliant Martin - well done!!

Can I join in? Clare

Glad your first day has gone well!!

Lost another 3lbs today - so total of 20lbs in five weeks. Am SO pleased -also lost 3 inches from chest, 3.5 inches from waist, 4 inches from hips and wait for it - 4 inches from each thigh!!! Only this week can I really tell the difference in my clothes but have definately gone down a dress...

In THREE WEEKS?! Thats amazing - you look really different. Think sometimes people just don't want to comment rather than haven't noticed. You look fab.

I found day three the hardest in terms of hunger, but was ok as long as just glugged down the water. I have to cook for my three children and dh and don't find it hard at all now. In fact I quite enjoy it in a funny sort of way. I like the smell of the food but am not tempted to eat any. I...

:party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011::party0011: That's amazing, still managing to loose whilst on holiday - and as for losing 50lbs - wow!!!

Agree, I'd try them all, some I like I didn't think I would and some didn't like the first time (like the soups) but had got used to them by the end of the first week. Good luck - hope you first week goes well

You look fantastic!! Well done! Thanks for posting these, I love seeing success stories, it really does keep you going.

Thats great news - I bet you can't wait to get started - good luck!!

Wow - that's fantastic!!

Just put it behind you and don't beat yourself up about it, but don't give in or give up (I did the same on WW, got to goal and then just ate and ate which was so stupid) - I KNOW you can do it

When I tried to make one in a ramakin it bubbled up all over the microwave - am I doing something wrong? Clare

Congratulations!! You look gorgous!! What an amazing achievement! Clare

Good luck doing WW - I lost two and a half stone years ago with WW in four months - and my goodness it will seem so much food after CD!! Eat lots of your free soup, sugar free jelly etc and you will be fine. Clare

You look fab - well done! Clare

OMG!! Thats amazing!!

Hi - and welcome!! Just wanted to say good luck, keep posting and hope the next few days go well for you - stay strong and then its easy (easier!!) after that! Clare

Thanks for the post - I'm off to buy some tomorrow!

That's brilliant -must be such a good feeling!

Oh, what a completely adorable little boy. My daugher Grace spent some time in intensive care at Great Ormond Street so can imagine what the family are going through. My sincere thoughts and prayers with you and the family - hope he recovers quickly. Clare xx

On week three and none so far apart from a few weights. Am planning to start jogging when lost another stone and maybe Body Pump Clare

Welcome Martin and good luck!! It sounds as though you are really determined - I'm on week three now and so far really enjoying it. Embrace ketosis as your friend!! It will stop you feeling hungry all the time!

Well done!! You must be so pleased!!

Good luck - hope it goes well for you Clare

Morning everyone!! Its quite sunny here, and dh has taken the kids out for the morning so I'm painting our bedroom. Had a bad day yesterday and just wanted to EAT, I didn't, but it drove me mad all day and in the evening just wanted to open a bottle of wine. In the end I had a soda water with...

Well done on getting this far - it does get easier - I'm in my third week now and suddenly all of my energy has come back - weeks one and two I lived in bed from 8pm!! Keep going on all of the favours - in the first few days I HATED the soups, but by the end of the week didn't mind them so much...

Yep - I get a really salty tasting mouth too! Clare

Just to set the record straight as my dh is a scientist (though he works on skin cancer) - this will not be being paid for by "our" money. Very little scientific research is funded by the government. A lot of research done is privately funded (e.g. cancer research is funded by Cancer Research...

Wow - you are looking fab! Clare

Only been doing CD for two weeks and already addicted!!

Wow - you look gorgous!!!

I've only been on SS for just over two weeks, but have been having half a shake about nine, then a soup at 1pm, half a shake at around 3.30, half a bar at about six and then the rest of my bar sometime in the evening - is working for me!!

I have a half day at a spa already paid for - I'm going to book it when I reach 10 stone (a healthy BMI for me) - ideally I'd like to get to 9 stone and then I can going to buy myself a beautiful strapless (never been able to wear one before as my fat hangs over the top lol!) dress from Coast...

Thanks guys - really nice to have some support - it makes all the difference. Still woke up with a big smile on my face this morning!! Clare:)

And I lost 5lbs!! So have lost a total of 10.5lbs in two weeks. Really made up. And now can have bars - just had half a peanut bar - was lovely to be able to chew something at last!! And today put on a summer top hadn't worn in a while and last time I wore it, it nearly cut my circulation off...
