    'Chasing Butterflies' - Team 7

    Hi Nicki! Thanks for the warm welcome, very excited to join your team. You have done amazingly well. Well done. In a nutshell, I did CD in 2007, lost a lot of weight and got down to a size 18. Unfortunately after being a size 26, i was just so comfortable at an 18 that I stopped CD, and yes...

    Breakfast?

    I don't have my first pack until around 2pm/3pm. It works for me because evenings are my downfall and I never ate breakfast a great deal anyway. However, some people I know would hate not being able to have a pack at lunch time. Jess

    Disheartened

    Our wii fit is not accurate at all. I have a very expensive pair of scales that stay in the same place all of the time and seem pretty accurate, but the Wii fit often weights differently and not the same different amounts if you see what I mean. Also the wii fit depends on exactly where on...

    That is fantastic! Well done and good luck becoming a CDC. Can I ask how long it has taken you to lose that? (I have more than that to lose so just curious) Jess

    Porridge - How many packs?

    I don't think I am carb sensitive, so should be ok. I seem to stay in Ketosis with the bars, and having 1 porridge per day I am still firmly in it. You are right though, the porridge is fab. I feel that it is probably going to be the difference for me this time as last time I just got sick of...

    Porridge - How many packs?

    Thanks everyone. I don't quite like it enough to want 4 a day, but just in case I didn't fancy anything else on a particular day wanted to make sure. I like my choc mint, choc and strawberry shakes too much to give them up fully! Jess

    Porridge - How many packs?

    The porridge is new since I did CD last time. I really love the apple porridge but wondered if there is a limit on how many you can have? Is it one a day, or can you have all 4 packs of it? Thanks Jess

    Hi everyone Just a quick check in from me. My Wk 1 result was 15lbs but I won't be getting weighed now until Week 3. Should I add my home scale results for Wk 2 for the purposes of the teams? Well come on your loss CheeseonToast and jessie B that is fab. My next goal is to get to 2stone...

    Jimmyshoo - A size 14 is fantastic. I bet you felt great fitting into it. Hope you have a good day today. Hopefully with work keeping you busy, CDing will be easier. Well, Day 10 for me. Last couple of days have been great, the only problem being that I have not been hungry at all. I get to...

    Morning Everyone Day 9 in the CD house for me, last couple of days have gone really well except I was so absorbed in work (and I guess not physically hungry) that I didn't have my first pack until 4pm. I felt like a right little piggy last night - but I just had my other 3 packs :) Jessie -...

    help with teatime needed!

    I am lucky in that I don't really get hungry much during the day. That means that generally I don't have my first pack until 3pm. I then sit down with OH and have a pack at 5pm (soup in a bowl like a proper meal) and then I have a milkshake at 7ish and finally a lovely bar at 9pm. I glug...

    why do i keep failing??

    I did CD a couple of years ago and lost 5 stone (I needed to lose 10). But I got comfortable and just went back to my old ways of eating. Over the last year I have tried about 6 times to start CD. It never worked. My head wasn't really in it. I believe what Katycakes has said is right, I too...

    Morning everyone Well, it is the first day of my second week on CD. My goal this week is to lose 4-5lb which I hope is doable. How is everyone else doing? I have just started on my first bottle of water - I keep a litre bottle on my desk while I work and just keep taking glugs from it which...

    I cracked it pretty hard. I was slightly worried about it, but I started to feel better with some paracetamol so figured I can't have done too much damage. The has mainly gone, just the bump now. I am just having a Butterscotch shake which is lovely. I tend to not have my first pack until...

    16 and Shrinking Team 16

    Hope you feel better soon. I have had the flu too, although it hasn't got too bad thank heavens. Yesterday I hit my head on a metal bar and managed to knock myself out which left me with a splitting headache for the rest of the evening and a big bump on my head! Hope you feel better soon. Take...

    Hi everyone Thanks for the warm welcome. Sorry I couldn't post yesterday, unfortunately I had to go to my Aunt's funeral which was a really tough day so didn't feel like hopping on the internet last night. I had my week 1 weigh in this morning and I had a staggering loss of 15lbs. Never...

    Hi everyone I just saw that you have a space for a new member and would love to join if you still have space and will have me. I am on Day 5, have a lot to lose (around 140lb) but am feeling quite good. Days 1-4 have been very easy - today has been the hardest by far. No idea why as when I...

    EXCITED!!!!

    I was exactly the same last night .I am on Day 5 of a restart and am so excited. I have tried CD a few times, but it just seems that this time my head is in the right place. The first 5 days have been too easy, it has worried me slightly. Normally I struggle with Day 2, 3 and 4 but nothing so...

    Newbie - Day 1

    Thanks everyone. 2 Litres of water down, so far so good. I can't remember feeling this cold last time, but then again it was the summer and not the middle of a freezing cold November! I might have to go for a soup instead of a shake later. x Jess
