I hope you don't feel disheartened, if you stick to plan this week you will prob have a great lost next weds :) your meals look interesting and full of free foods so you're definately on the right road. Ive had a dreadful day today, I am sooooo tired and think I may be leading up to my star...

It is empowering, that's true. I read a thing ages ago about instant gratification and I definately do hate to wait, and there lies my problem. So, I am training myself to wait :) and getting practice at saying no, not yet, to myself. It seems to be working, I feel like I've got more control...

Your friend sounds like a laugh. I can believe chocolate wine was puke :) but I do quite fancy some chocolate liquors, they're quite yummy. Ive gone on a bit of a stir fry frenzy today, after eggs and beans for brekkie and my usual elevensies banana I didn't get chance for lunch til 3pm. So...

Lol, yes and some funny looks too. But whatever helps I say :)

Hi, was just reading your bit about the chocolate bar, I do exactly the same thing! But now I do it on purpose! My theory is that I will get good practice at putting those things that make me unhappy back, short term pain, long term gain. There's the added bonus of a bit of excitement at the...

Lol chesticles, hahahaha. But seriously don't panic just yet. When I lost 3 stone before my buddies shrunk and went kind of um empty, err gross, but then as I maintained my weight it redistributed and they regained their shape after about 6 weeks. I did get really worried for a while and even...

OH MY GOD! Were having the same meal again today, I too had chicken stir fry, for my lunch :) I hope I never have the pumpkin soup with sprinklings of scan bran though, it nearly made me sick up a bit just thinking of it, lol. I too have been on the grapes, supplemented with apple and banana...

Sounds like a great job, good for you, well done. I used to work in IT pre kids but it doesn't take long to get out dated with the technology so havent gone back to it. It's a shame because I used to love it. Now I work in an estate agents which is very interesting but doesnt pay so well. I...

Wow well done on the job. What do you do? You've obviously impressed a few people in your search. Also, just looked up piloxing I've never heard of it before, it looks fun. Do you have to use weighted gloves for it? Im gonna have a go at soup making tomorrow :)

Well got through the evening withou too much damage, gin and slimline tonic all evening worked a treat and you were right, no hangover! Thank you. Also passed on the tapas later in the evening and felt super good when I woke up this morning. Didn't fare quite so good today after I racked up 35...

Well done on you're fantastic loss, 3.5 lbs in one week, that's amazing, 1/4 of a stone!! I am still plodding on, can't hope for more than a pound off this week after going off the rails yesterday but am determined to keep going, giving up is not an option so trying to stay positive. I Gotta...

Hi i don't keep a food diary but do a blog everyday, to myself really, just to keep focused and track my progress. Still not entirely sure how this site works, do most people deep a food diary on here? Lol it's good to know ur not logging everything, I was comparing my food intake and thinking...

Thank you Astrs73, I appreciate your insight. So far I have been a hopeless dieter. Ive tried every diet going and apart from starving myself for 3 months on lighter life a few years ago I never get past a month or get anywhere near my target. From experience though, and this time around, I...

Just found your thread, I love it. I'm on a massive learning curve so it's great to see your progress so far. I'm trying to do EE and although not sure if I'm doing it completely right the scales are (slowly) moving in the right direction and my work trousers are definately easier to do up! I...

I keep getting hungry but for the wrong foods. I go through the cupboards and all the things I'm craving are not free. Today I weighed and measured the various things I was craving and quickly decided for the merge amount for the syn allowance it just wasn't worth it. I'm still very motivated to...

Omg, I counted it as 5.5 lol. Never mind and thx for the update fallen angel :)

Hope Eddie made you laugh, I saw him a few years ago and nearly wet my pants he was so funny. Still 100. % on plan, thinking i may start excercise, i do have a gym membership so really should use it. I just find excuses not to go. Someone in work today noticed I'm getting thinner, wat a...

Beans and sausages, yummy Thanks for the info

'In reference to "Activity" or exercise… does anyone else find that if you start something new, like a new class or you start doing something you haven't done before, that the weight loss can either not exist, weight goes on or it's a lot less than you expected? ' Excellent point! Now, I am...

I'm on day 15 already. It was all going quite smoothly until yesterday when I really struggled but I managed to get through the day and was pleased this morning that I didn't blow it. I have decided that the really difficult days are the most important ones, they are the ones that will make me...

I've done lighterlife which is similar to Cambridge and lost 3 stone in 3 months. It actually wasn't difficult after the first week, it's a no brainer not having to think about meals but, yes there is always a but, the problem comes when food is reintroduced. The weight loss is so quick but...

Rofl, I like dancing too, and will try the soup but not for it's medicinal purposes :D

I'm on day 8, been looking forward to dinner since about 4pm but running around after the kids. Got in at quarter to nine and instead of reaching for the bread and cheese for a quick fix made rice and chicken. It only took 20 mins and I'm feeling very righteous now, instead of a failure :) hope...

Emily, the Michael briggs story is amazing, thx for suggesting it.

Also, how do u get the ticker thing to show?

Day 8 in the big blubber house. Still really motivated and staying with it. Trying to do EE but not 100% sure I'm doing it right! Had beans, eggs and ham for breakfast, pasta with free homemade sauce for lunch and snacked on an apple and fat free yogurt, no tea yet. Is that right?

Great time of year for cheaper berries, I find them great for snacking, and cherries too (do they count as berries? Not sure) :)

Wow I didn't expect any replies so quick. Thank you for your encouragement, I am tired of failing so I am determined to make this work.

Hi I'm on day 6 of SW, been here so many times before but feel really optimistic this time, head in the right place. Not going to a club, just weighing from home. Anyone Else starting this week with 3 stone to lose?
