I got weighed about 9 days ago. 14 stones 9! My heaviest ever. I have a wedding to attend on April 19th so was hoping to lose my weight...

    Well, had about 9 days off! Had been ill with a virus then boyfriend took me away for a few days so just decided to start again when I got back....which was yesterday. Not too bad, I had lost 10 lbs, just weighed myself and I'm still 7 lb lighter than start weight, so all in all a 3 lb gain is...

    Step 1 Sole Source Not feeling the results?

    I know what you mean, I've been feeling a bit like that. I've found that I have a massive weight shift at once.... Some days my weight doesn't change, then others I get on scales and I'll have lost about 4/5lb. I find a lot of diets that put you in ketosis have had a similar effect on me

    Diet coke. Tell me the truth!

    Does anyone know if we can drink soda water? I asked my CDC, but she was unsure and advised against it. It's only carbonated water at end of the day, and it it has zero carbs and zero calories. Just wondering if anyone knew? Got a few nights out over the bank holiday and thought that if I have...

    Wow well done! 10lb is amazing! I've only just started a few days ago....done it twice in the past. Really worked for me, but had a lot going on over the last few years and ended up caving as a result. It's taken me ages of not watching what I've eaten... So back again to do it properly once and...

    Try and hang in there...it will get better. Its really tough when you first start, but quite soon all the cravings will go. Try and do something to take your mind off it....even if it means going to bed for a few hours. When you wake up you'll be really pleased with yourself that you didn't...

    You'll prob find the first few days quite tough, especially if you've never done it before. However, just drink loads of water.. I find a pint after each shake helps to fill me up. In 3 days times you'll feel so much difference and things will start to get a lot easier... Once you feel the...

    Hey, i did this diet a couple of years ago and lost 2stone in 5 weeks. I drank diet coke everyday throughout it too.
