woo hoo! its good to have what you want now and again and get right back on track after! xx

Well done!! I think seeing inches go down is even better than seeing the number on the scales go down! I measured nearly 4 weeks ago, due to measure again on Monday, very excited! :) xx

Hi everyone, i've not been on here very much in the past week, weigh in day was yesterday, stayed the same as last week, so I'm getting a bit annoyed at myself, i feel like im getting nowhere in the past couple of weeks. anyway hey ho, keep on going, and hopefully be at the -2stone mark by...

Hi all, so came back from weekend away on Monday night. Drank lots of wine, ate lots of nice food, weighed this morning.....and Iv gained 3lbs *sigh*. I'm not going to give myself a hard time over it though. Its the first time iv gained since starting slim fast, and i had a really nice time...

thank you! :) Xx

it could be anything, our weight goes up and down all the time thats why we should NOT go on the scales between weigh ins lol! (I should take my own advice!) iv got a terrible habit of weighing nearly every day and it sometimes differs by a pound or even two, but I always go bythe weight I am on...

Morning everyone! So, weighing today instead of Sunday because im going away this afternoon. Another 2lbs lost bringing my total to 25lbs!! Will weigh again a week on Sunday, hopefully I won't go overboard with the treats this weekend and I'll be another two pounds lighter next weigh in! Xx

Am I supposed to update this myself? If not, sorry for messing with it!!..... Xx

Hmmm yeah I think I'll weigh on Friday before I go away. Then again a week on Sunday. I don't think im strong enough to completely skip weighing this week (considering iv weighed myself every morning since Sunday, just to make extra sure im still in the 14's!!! Think I need the scales hidden...

Well done on your first week 4lbs is a great loss!! To be honest I don't eat 3 snacks a day either, I have one mid morning and like to save the other couple of hundred cals to add to my dinner! Good luck for week 2, you're doing great so far Xx

eeek 5lbs so far well done! U sound just like me, iv found this the easiest diet to stick to, and im the same I don't religiously calorie count at dinner time, just try to be sensible with portion sizes. Congrats on the engagement, and a wedding to look forward to must be great motivation to...

I know exactly what you mean, I lost around 3 stones about 3-4 years ago, put it all back on and more, and its taken me till now to get my head sorted and motivated enough to start losing weight again. I'm loving slim fast, iv found it easy to stick to and iv lost pounds every week. I'm sure...

Hi all, me again, with more questions! Got a bit of a dilemma would love some advice. I'm going away on Friday for the weekend, and trying to decide whether I should weigh in on Friday morning (my usual day is Sunday), to motivate me not to be too unhealthy over the weekend, or do I skip weigh...

haha excellent!! Well the way your diets going so far it won't take long!! When im brave enough and lost another couple of stone I think I'll post some before and after pics on here. This is all very exciting!! :D Xx

oh thank you! That's a great idea, I never thought of that! I'll look into it :) How are you finding being on slim fast? This is a great website for keeping motivated. Xx

oh totally, next step - get into the 13's!!! Its pretty scary!! But exciting! Xx

That's fab, well done! Yeah it feels good to be out of the 15's! Xx

WOO HOOOOO!!! I'm in the 14's!! 3lbs lost this week taking me to 14st 13lbs!! So bloody happy!!! But i'm going to try and start slowing the weight loss down to about 2lbs a week from now so that I can maintain when I get to my goal. 23lbs off in total so far :D xx

That is fantastic well done you!!!! Such a good feeling to see the number on the scales string lower and lower! Enjoy that Indian tonight, you deserve it!! Xx

Cool, it makes sense now. Thanks! But I'll be so disappointed if I weigh on Sunday and I've not lost anything just because iv not eaten enough. Starting tomorrow I'll eat a bit more each day, or alternate like you say. Xx

It sure is, but i've started freaking out about all this BMR/Calorie needs stuff, turns out I'm eating waaaaay less calories than I should to maintain a steady weight loss, so I'm scared that i've not lost this week :( Apparently i need to eat 1750 cals a day to lose 2lbs a week but i,ve only...

OK...So...I've worked out that I need to eat 2750 cals to maintain the weight I'm at just now. So that would mean dropping to 1750 cals a day to lose 2lbs a week. Eek that's a good couple of hundred more than I'm eating daily just now. For example today i've eaten: shake 230 cls snack 84 cals...

Good luck for tomorrow, I hope you get the result you want, im positive you will! xx

Hi everyone, there's a couple of questions been buzzing around in mu head I wonder if you guys can help. This is going to be a long one so I apologise in advance! 1. Obviously if we eat to much we gain weight, but I keep reading things about how if we don't eat ENOUGH, we won't lose weight. I...

Ooh skinny cow is nice, and that reminds me you know those milky ice lollys, the long ones? I'm sure they're pretty low in cals? Yeah im excited but a bit nervous, I will be gutted if im not under 15 st by Sunday. Only 2lbs to the 12's thats fab!!! You"LL deffo do it! I can't wait till im...

Aah, there are more magnums in the fridge. maybe I'll introduce them to the bin? Lets see how other half feels about THAT!! tee hee. Oh god no ACTUALLY i couldn't waste chocolate like that, even if i'm not allowed it!! I have willpower of STEEL!! (Keep telling myself that) xx

Oh wow, how do you resist? Or do you allow yourself a wee treat? xx

Oooh i sooo hope its going to be worth it!! I want to see that lovely number 14 on the scales on Sunday!!! :sigh: xx

It certainly did NOT help when the boyfriend came home last night with 4 doughnuts and a magnum, which by the way he proceeded to eat right in front of me. How mean is that!! But, I RESISTED!! Strawberries all the way!! :D xx

So my boyfriend has well and truly hidden my scales this week, and I am desperate to do a mid week weigh in to see how im getting on. How annoying!!! Another 4 days to go aaargh. Xx

you're so right, if i didnt eat what I wanted now and again I think i'd go mad! xx

Thank you :) No more sunday binges!! (hopefully) xx

Yeah I find during the week much easier too as i'm in a routine and kept busy. I ended up being very naughty this weekend - not doing it again!! xx

Thanks! Yeah I've lost it all on slim fast, to be honest iv found it easier than any other diet but I suppose its different for everyone. I'm going to get my boyfriend to hide my scales tonight and won't weigh again till Sunday! Xx

Weigh in day again. 3lbs lost this week, and although thats good im a bit annoyed at myself. I weighed yesterday morning and scales said 15st 1, this morning 15st 2, most likely because I ate alot of stuff yesterday that I shouldn't have. Anyway, lesson learned, and aiming for at least 3lbs this...

Ok iv checked all the cals here's what iv had today: Shake 230 Snack 84 Shake 230 Crisps 83 (x3 =249) Wraps 118 (x2= 236) Low fat Philly about 50 caps So altogether 1079, which so far is still under my daily calorie allowance. Phew. I still want to have my dinner as im trying out a...

Oh my god I am soooo disappointed in myself. Was doing so well today, took a walk in the morning, had a breakfast shake, a snack and a lunch shake. And then I went and ruined it all by completely stuffing my face, I was like a demon!!! Not one but THREE packets of low fat crisps, and two...

I have a feeling that a big part of it is people are expecting me to give up on this diet eventually, but im so damn determined this time. I only need to lose another 4lbs to get to under 15st, and iv not seen the number 14 on the scales for about 4 years! So although it might not show just now...

I think I will start measuring, maybe that will help me feel better about it all. I just feel im working so hard at this and want a bit of recognition for it! I know how vain that sounds, and it sounds like im just losing weight for everyone elses sake, but im really not. I just think that once...

This might sound ridiculous, but its frustrating me! Iv lost 17lbs so far, not far off 1.5 stone, and no one seems to have noticed! How can my body not have changed at all since losing 17lbs! I can feel I've lost weight, and clothes are looser, but if I tell anyone how much I've lost, it seems...

Haha, gotta have something bad now and again, I ate half a tube of pringles last week.......and sooooo enjoyed it :D xx

well done, i lost 7lbs in my first week too, been on slim fast for about 5 weeks now and lost 17lbs, i love this diet :) Good luck! xx

my favourites are the banana and latte ones, not so keen on the chocolate, it doesn't taste very chocolatey to me! got a tin of the strawberry yesterday, thats lovely too. xx

Thanks! How are you getting on? xx

Hi everyone 2 weeks since I last weighed, and have lost 4lbs, which i'm pleased with as I came off the diet slightly last weekend when I was away. 17lbs altogether, hoping I can do 4lbs this week to make it 1.5stone, fingers crossed. xx

Have been away for the weekend so didnt weigh on Monday, im sure i didnt gain anything though. But just to be safe i'm not weighing again until next monday coming! Hows everyone getting on? xx

Hi, I usually have my morning shake about 6.30am, then have a snack around 10.30/11.00 and my lunch shake at 1.30. I don't know if switching them about would make a difference, I like doing it this way though as I like to have a nice dinner to look forward to after work :) xx

excellent, well done! x

good luck! xx

Aw thanks! Well for my evening meal I don't religiously count calories, I just try to have something healthy for example a tuna mayo baked potato (light mayo, and tuna in spring water has less calories). or if we're having something like fajitas i have one fajita and a big helping of veg. I...

Hi, I have been doing slim fast for 3 weeks now and have lost 13lbs altogether, so it definitely works. I just drink water because i'm not a big tea/coffee person anyway, and I walk for half an hour each day. This has been the only diet I've actually felt happy on, and I'm not hungry all day as...

Well 3lbs lost this week, annoyingly didn't lose 1lb more to make it a stone, but i'm still pleased :) 13lbs in 3 weeks, cant complain. xx

tonight we're having piri piri chicken with sundried tomato rice, i'm not sure exactly of the calories but i'm pretty sure its not bad. xx

Oh i just CANNOT stop weighing myself during the week!!! weighed this morning, another 3lbs lost, so that's 13 altogether, need to lose 1 more by Monday to have lost my first stone, c'mon scales, do the right thing!! :) No more weighing till MONDAY!! xx

Yeah its the boredom that gets me too, but i'm so determined to lose the weigh this time that I,m getting good at giving myself a row if i reach for something bad! Just done a 30 minute workout dvd so that kept me busy for a bit! xx

I'm hoping to reach my target weight by christmas, and if i get there, it will be my first "slim" christmas and I will treat myself to a VERY expensive dress!!! :D xx

Oooh I read an interesting wee weight loss tip online, you guys maybe already know this but thought i'd share just incase (also dont know how true it is!), but apparently if you drink iced water, your body burns 100 calories heating it up to normal temperature :) xx

Doing good so far, went shopping, cleaned house and its almost time for lunch shake. Need to lose 1lb more by Monday to hit my first stone target so i'm being very good! :) xx

Oh dear, its the weekend. So far i've managed to stick to this diet rigidly at the weekends, but i find it sooooo hard because the rest of the week i'm in a routine. During the week i'm fine, no hunger, love this diet as it suits my working hours etc, I walk 45 mins every day. Any tips on how to...

Been doing pretty well so far, started slimfast on 30th July and have lost 10lbs since then, although my next weigh in is Monday so 'im hoping more has come off! What about you? How are you finding it? xx

Good luck i'm sure you've done great! Cant wait to see your next post :) H xx

Thanks :) Next weigh in on Monday xx

I was wondering about this too, I have a party next weekend. But the way I see it, iv drank NOTHING except water for the past 3 weeks so feel I deserve a wee treat ;) Xx

Second weigh in today! I was freaking out during the week because I seemed to just be maintaining, but weighed this morning and 3lbs gone! :) so thats 10lbs in 2 weeks. I'm aiming for 4lbs this week to make it a stone. Will update ticker later, on phone just now Xx

I'm having a baked potato with chilli con carne tonight. Yum :D

I hope I do see some sort of loss on Monday. I have been exercising, but not to an extreme, just walking for about 45 minutes each day after work, and I try as best I can to drink 2 litres of water every day. Iv been so good!! Thanks for the suggestions guys, fingers crossed for Monday. At least...

My second weigh on is on Monday. Last week I lost 7lbs. I had a sneaky weigh in this morning and guess what? Iv not lost a single pound!! I'm exactly the same as I was on Monday!!! Iv been doing everything just the same as in the first week, what's going on???

Fishcakes and baked beans for me :) x

Awe thanks! Its just a pic I found on google, we had a border collie for 15 years too and he died last year, I found that wee pic and it looked just like him! Xx

If I can do it, anyone can! Honestly iv tried so many diets and this is the only one that seems to suit me. Keep going! Xx

Soooo.... 7lbs lost this week :D very happy today!! xx

I've been buying Velvet Crunch crisps, a bit like snack a jacks and only 84 calories per pack, so leaves me an extra few calories to play with at dinner! And they are delicious! Xx

I'm struggling today, its the first day since I started the diet that iv been in the house doing nothing and im bored and hungry!! Haven't given in yet though, and just about to have my lunch shake xx

So I had a sneaky little weigh in this morning, won't tell you what the scales said coz want to wait till Monday, but im VERY happy!! :D xx

thats what I like about the diet, I don't have to worry about making breakfast or lunch, its so much easier this way! Well done on the losses guys, fingers crossed I'll have a good first weigh in on Monday :) Xx

Hi everyone, im new to the slim fast diet but not new to minimins, iv had several failed diet attempts! I think iv finally found a diet I can stick to, and plan to weigh myself every Monday and hope that posting my weigh ins on here will keep me motivated. My starting weight on Monday was 16st...

Hiya, Id like to try the challenge, xmas eve is my goal date anyway! Id like to lose 78lbs.......or even just 70 will do :) xx

Hi, I started slim fast yesterday, I have around 5st to lose, and im feeling pretty confident that this diet will work :D Good luck everyone xxx

Im just doing my own thing too, ifind it easier that way (and less expensive!) x

Thanks Panda! Yeah its a good place to come when im feeling tempted by bad food lol! x

Hi everyone, I joined minimins 2 years ago and lost just over 2 stones...then let it slip. Im back to square 1 now :sigh: and starting all over again. Going to do it properly this time! I found that being a member of minimins really helped me, so im glad to be back. xxx

Hi everyone, iv been gone for aaaages, trying to get back on track, went off the rails for a while! Was having trouble getting motivated to exercise, then i seen a life coach who advised that i need something to work towards...so i signed up for race for life!!! ME!!! RACE FOR LIFE!!! Been...

yeah i buy from simply be but again, i find their stuff abit boring. I do love Joe Browns plus, their clother are gorgeous but expensive :cry:

im not actually having much of a problem with snacking, which is odd for me. i just have my 3 meals a day and drink LOADS of water during the day, it seems to help.

thanks everyone - i find the DP and Next sizes quite small though :cry: hmmmm i havent tried any though since i lost 19lbs so maybe they will fit better now?:eek:

Hey everyone - I know that one day none of us will be needing them, but does anyone know where I can buy trendy plus size clothes?? I know of Evans but i rarely shop there as i find the clothes are for more.... mature ladies and New Look do plus size but their range is very limited. Most of the...

aww thanks! i could just never do a vlcd like cambridge or slim fast, i like my food too much :D. just completed my food diary for today, eaten 875 cals today, alot less than my target of 1905 so thats good (its not that ive eaten hardly anything, just its been all healthy stuff!) and walked 40...

eels!

nutracheck sets your calorie limits based on your weight/height/how much you want to lose, so basically my targets are to eat no more than about 1700 cals a day, and burn off about 200, although i usually burn more than that. to be honest ive been doing this since june but only recently started...

hey, im calorie counting! i use nutracheck to keep track of the calories im eating/burning etc. only lost 19lbs so far so its not happening as fast as id like :(

hi everyone, got a question. how long should it take for your body to actually LOOK like ive lost weight? ive lost 17lbs which i think is quite good, but to be honest, i cant really see much of a difference. i can see a bit has come off just under my boobs but everywhere else just looks the...

tell you what i had this morning, and it was lush. i just chopped up a load of strawberries, and blended them with a glass of milk, it was soooo nice. add yoghurt too if you want, but i didnt have any in the fridge :( its dead filling too!

can i join in pwease?? I want to lose 10lbs in september, which will mean iv reached my 2nd target of getting to under 15st - I can soooo do this!! :rolleyes:

hey guys, welcome to minimins, everyone is dead nice and sooo supportive, i definitely couldnt do this without the help of everyone on here. good luck with the weight loss! xxx

i never do patch tests either, and ive never had a bad reaction x

ok no one else seems to be doing this lol, so i will guess noe..surfhunny i think you speak 2 languages. lyn, i think you have 5 kids. am i right???

he is totally paranoid - to the point of needing to see a therapist i think. and he really does feel sorry for himself all the time - But how FUNNY was he in the las vegas task as elton john! that was sooooo cool!

nope, he's back now. aww that would have been exciting :(

munchies - DUMPED DUMPED DUMPED!!!!!:cry:

hi gareth, welcome to minimins, its great on here! good luck with the weight loss xx

yay ok - i can do that. thanks kitty!:D

Can someone set me a target for this wek please?? I would do it myself but i always give in and change the goal posts half way through the week. Ive generally been losing around 2-3lbs a week so far. Thanks!!

Good luck! your gonna be fabulous! I have another 5st 8lbs to lose. And if i can do this, anyone can! Lots of hugz xxxx

yeah i suppose everyone has things hiding in the woodwork that would make their way out if you were on national tv! you need to be very brave to go on bb i think. but, you would get to meet davina! yay!:eek:

i dont like myself very much, i never really have. i used to self harm when i was a teenager, i dont anymore, and i should be proud, but now i just feel completely ashamed of myself. i constantly worry what people are saying about me - not people i dont know, i dont care about that, but my...

lol surely your not that bad?? i just couldnt be locked in a house with the same people for 3 months - i would walk.

yeah i know what you mean. i think all the best characters are out, but im still glued to it, i even check the bb website!! i could never go on bb. never.

I reckon you DO speak 2 languages.. Once 3 people have guessed, then you reveal which is true!

ahhh, well for a few months every year, most of the nation turn into a bunch of saddos, myself included.

Heres a game for everyone. Each person should tell a lie, tell the truth, and write a life motto, and everyone else needs to guess which is a lie and which is the truth.. the motto is just for fun...I'll start.. - i own 150 pairs of shoes - i love brussel sprouts So which is the truth and...

I would say Mo and Sara are pretty annoying. I could not put up with Mos farting - eeew! And i dont like Kat!! Grrr!!:mad:

whisky lullaby by alison krauss and ... cant remember the guys name. i'll be there for you by the rembrandts..a weird choice i know but it reminds me of my best friends and i get all emotional when listening to it! :cry: Sitting on the dock of the bay by......?

usually when you complete a you are rewarded coinz, and they are automatically added to your account. the best games are the time management ones or the word games, i earned 2000 coinz in one level, and have over 8000 now! hope this helps xx

so whos gonna win?? I reckon its between darnell and mikey, although its tough to predict this year! i would like either darnell or rachel or lisa to win...oooh mario is gong to propose to lisa live on bb today!!! has he done it yet???

Was at my cousins birthday party last night, those of you who read my post yesterday will know i was worried about staying away from the cake, but i did soooo well, all i had from the buffet was a salad, with lettuce, tomato and chicken! i was drinking, but as im not following any specific diet...

good luck stacey xx

lol im usually the same, but as most people know im on a diet, i like to prove to them that i CAN resist it lol xx

im not on any specific diet, just doingmy own thing. so the way i usually work it is, if i do have something bad, then i'll just eat completely healthy stuff the next day, like fruit and salads,so maybe i can have a wee bit of cake??? and wine!:)

Yaaay another 2lbs gone this week. Wish it would come off faster but im happy with the diet im following, and im never too hungry so will stick with it. Got an 18th to go to tonight, any tips to keeo me away from the cake?? :confused:

bye bye nicole. dont let the door hit you on the way out.

GET NICOLE OUT! GET NICOLE OUT! She embodies everything I hate in a human being, she really does. :mad:

Oh my god!! They really are the most disfunctional couple I have EVER laid eyes on! HOW...

Ok, on saturday morning I was 15st 10lbs. This morning I am 15st 12lbs, even though ive eaten really well, all healthy, and exercised my bum off, so much so that all my muscles hurt!!! So HOW have i put on 2lbs???????:confused::confused: This is RIDICULOUS??? If this is whats gonna happen then...

Hi everyone. My turning point was when i was a bridesmaid at a wedding last year. When the morning of the wedding cami I could barely squeeze into my dress, and just before the reception, i bent down to fix the brides dress, and the zip on my dress burst :cry: Have NEVER been so embarrassed in...

Hey Martin, I hate the gym too! So i just go walking every day, and it seems to be helping me shift the weight! Hope everythings going well!

Morning Taz! Yeah your right :cry: I'll be knackered later. I dont think i've ever seen 4am before :confused:

:( Its 5.21am and i've been awake since my boyfriend left for work at 4am!! :mad: Soooo tired but cant get back to sleep! Anyone else have the problem of their partner doing an early shift?? The good thing was, Father Ted was on at 4am yay!

Inspired by other posts, im also gong to start going through "100 books to read before you die". Im using a list compiled by The Observer - http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2003/oct/12/features.fiction and am starting with Don Quixote Miguel De Cervantes, just waiting on it arriving, ordered...

Hi Kerry, you'll love it here, and will find all the motivation you need. Good Luck xxx

lol thats my fault sorry evryone! should have read previous threads properly before posting! :o

glad i reminded you all! it really is FAAAAB! x but makes me cry :(

yeah thats what i thought....might give it another go anyway - suppose its better than sitting on my bum in front of the tv!!!

Hey everyone - i bought Natalie Cassidys Then and Now workout today, did half an hour of it then gave up lol! Has anyone else used this dvd,and had results?

well done topcat youve done brilliantly - i hope one day i can say on here that ive lost the six stone i need to lose. im soooo gona do it this time. really really really!!

your right squidgster. just watching it now, and rachel got a chorus of boos when davina mentioned her name so i think she will be out tonight. Rex will be such an a**e to her before she goes i bet. Hes so smug I HATE HIM!! Sara is actually starting to get right on my nerves now too...

I love the Rebus books by Ian Rankin - the tv series was quite good, but i much prefer the books. ANyone else into these books?

how many of you think Rex WILL be up for eviction next week?? I DO! Well, i hope so anyway, to see that smug smile wiped off his ugly face. :mad:

thanks guys thats fab. hmm but i think its a wee bit expensive for me at the moment (student not working at the mo, so i just buy fruit and things just now lol, and live with parents!) are there any other diets like this one which are less expensive? what about slim fast, is it similar?:confused:

Hi everyone I have been a member of minimins for a couple of months now and have read alot about the Cambridge Diet. I have emailed a cambridge diet counsellor for more info but would lke to know from people who are on this diet, is the diet easy to stick to? Also are the packs expensive to...

thanks alibali! im trying trying TRYING! so glad i found this forum, keeps me focused on my goal! :)

i think rex fancies rachel too - there are other boring people in the house and he doesnt have a go at them. i cant believe he was sitting there the other night telling rachel she is definitely going - i hope she stays, just to see the look on his face. ive got a horrible feeling rex is going to...

yay i love it too and it makes me feel all festive! i love the bit when the guy goes to keira knightleys front door with the cards and tells her hiw he feels awww!! and as for ALan Rickman....PHWOAR!!

To Kill A Mockingbird is my favourite book of all time, and i love the film too. Is anyone else a fan?

Inkheart i've just finished reading a book called Inkheart written by Cornelia Funke: "Meggie loves books. So does her father, Mo, a bookbinder, although he's never read aloud to her since her mother mysteriously disappeared. The live quietly until one night a stranger arrives. Mo starts...

sock;)

spit :D

So, after my few days of misery i'm finally back on track. went out and bought a trolley load of fruit and veg and im all set. I've been telling myself, its sooooo simple in theory - all i have to do is NOT eat bad things - so why is it so hard to put in to practice?? Its all psychological, and...

nags ;)

i think rachel will go this week, although neither she or stu deserves to be up. i actually stopped watching last night coz it was winding me up so much. i really hate rex and nicole with a passion, she is such a spoiled brat, and she said in the diary room she was nominating Stu as he is always...

taps ;)

why did she even go on the show??? surely she must have known that he is like this, so why go and have this kind of relationship in front of the whole nation. im actually shocked that he can be so paranoid. is he ill???? :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

i want to wear sexy undies and FEEL SEXY for once in my life!! :D

oh my god is anyone else watching tonight?? HOW PARANOID IS REX?? Because nicole mentioned he had an outy belly button and he thinks she was comparing it to someone elses!! I really think he has self esteem issues, how controlling can one person be...

wow you look amazing!! theres some motivation for me! i know it can be done, I just feel shattered right now :sigh:
