Hi everyone. I lost 3lbs today bringing my total to 19.13, still a lot but better than what I was! :) I'll probably be here for a few weeks yet so I thought I would pop in and say hello. xxx

Slimmingmadhouse - I have been like you for years and years. I'm 32 and have been dieting since I was 14! I have lots to lose and have been to WW and SW so many times it's unreal. I never really managed to stick at SW though and had done WW and CD etc so many times that the thought of...

I usually keep my two alpen light bars for the evening. I get a couple of nectarines and also a muller light (and dip the alpen light bars in it!) that is my evening snacking sorted :)

20 honks for me today :) I started 3 weeks ago tomorrow and have been on plan every day!

Hi everyone, I will be here for 3.5lbs so I'm hoping that will be two weeks maybe? Just dropping by to say hello :D

Honk!

I started SW last week (did it years ago when it was only red and green days, but never stuck at it for very long, I was more of a WW kinda girl) I joined WW after Christmas but actually gained weight (the thought of limiting my food intake mixed with the new pro points system just insured I...

Thanks for that :) They aren't on that list though, hmmmm, I will probably syn them until SW either add them to the database or I hear otherwise. Thanks again! x

I am looking everywhere for the syn values of these and for the life of me, I can't find them. I would really appreciate a little help if you can. Thanks! MB x

OMG Kelly!!! That's fantastic news! Congratulations!!!!!!! :bliss::bliss::bliss: :talk017::party0019::party0011::party0011: :love047:

Welcome to the Waterbabes hun!!! x :D

Hi Girls Saraian, good luck with your new team, I hope you get the support you are after. EmmaLouise, I never thought about it like that before, you do have a good point there! I'm very impressed with your determination! I had my official weigh in today and I am 10lbs down woo hoo!!!!! Had...

I started this a week ago and I love it!! Just wondering if I'm all alone on here or not? :D

Hi Saraian. Well here is the website Celebrity Slim It's an Australian diet, but It is available in Ireland too, not sure about the UK yet. It's two shakes a day (high protein low carb) and one low carb meal made from the allowable foods. you can also have three snacks a day of the allowable...

Hi Girls. MooMoo I know what you mean, better to do something that you can stick to or just concentrate on TTC for now, I hope the fainting was a sign! good luck! Emmalouise, well done getting into that jumper! I bet you were pleased as punch and you will reach your mini goal in no time...

Hi again Still on track and doing well. I did say hello to everyone in my last post but I don't think anyone saw it (either that or I need to take a hint when I see one :o LOL) MrssP you can do it chick I know you can! Saraian and Moo Moo you are doing great! :D

Hi Girls how are you all? I started celebrity slim on Monday and I'm now on day three, no slip ups or anything and I'm finding it really easy!! I'm already 5lbs down (in 3 days!) so that's put a huge smile on my face! Saraian, thanks for asking after me hun! I wont leave it 5 days before I...

That's great then!! I'm happy being a honorary member :D It shouldn't be too long before I'm back on CD anyway, so at least I will still have you guys to talk to! And, my pitiful losses won't effect your numbers either LOL!!

Thanks Moo Moo. Well I'm hoping I can still come here every day as you are the only people I know on here. I just don't think it's fair that I remain an official waterbabe as I won't be giving you the big CD losses for the team challenge if you know what I mean. But as long as I can still...

Girls I'm very sorry but I'm going to have to love you and leave you. I need a break from CD, It is doing me no favours when I'm in this awful cycle and I am going to do slim fast for a few weeks. I need to start losing and I need to have the right frame of mind to do CD and right now I...

Hi Girls. Well I'm doing okay, but got really hungry today so I decided to have some chicken to help me. It worked and I'm now happy again and in no risk of delaying the onset of ketosis!! Saraian i hope you feel better soon Moo Moo I can just about handle my kiddies poo I have no idea how...

Hi Everyone. My CDC is based in Dublin and the porridge hasn't reached out shores yet! Lots of us are wanting to try it and my CDC knew I was part of this forum and asked me to see if any of the CDC's would mind getting in contact with her so she could get some porridge sent over this way...

Mine is Saturday, so I only have a few more days, but I have a tonne to lose so the first week should be a big loss (I hope so anyway!) Good luck with yours hun!

Well I have had my shake and some water (and a little bit of a flapjack....dammit, but I will pretend that didn't happen) I am still on track though as I put the damn thing down instead of finishing it!! Saraian you are doing really well!! Moo Moo there is a list of stuff you can have on...

Hi Mrss P sure the chicken was fine, it's allowed on SS+ anyway and if it keeps you on track then it's better than falling off! I'm so sorry emma louise, I missed your post yesterday (you must have thought I was a rude cow not acknowledging you!! lol) Thanks for the words of encouragement...

Thanks Moo Moo and Saraian. I will give the water a go first then and get to bed early! This is hard, I can't wait for ketosis!!

well I'm deffo gonna have to have 4 packs now, does anyone else do this sometimes?

Hi girls Potty training is going well I guess for a first day lol We have had 4 in the potty and 2 out of it (although I suspect this was so he could get into the pirate pants he had his eye on lol) I'm struggling I have to say, but I will get through the day, I may have to have 4 packs...

Saraian, it's great that you didn't just pack it all in. I would make the mistake of thinking "Ive ruined it now so I may as well go all out" if you know what I mean. I'm still on SS, need to dink some water though....

Okay, it's getting to the difficult part now, I'm starting to feel like I could nibble stuff, but I have come on here instead!!! Anything to keep my hands busy!

You will do it Moo Moo , we will be more or less at the same stage then! :D Well so far we have had 2 wees in the potty and no accidents!!! It's early days though!!!

Morning girls. Jools, thanks for your reply, and yes I will make sure I come one here instead!! Well I'm one shake down! I'm actually a bit relieved that I'm starting SS again as I was just out of control before, this was I can calm it down. Well I must go, I'm bust potty training ds2 so it...

Hi Girls. Moomoo it's so nice to see you back again and I would love to see you back on the team as you posted every day! I think CQ may have given up unless she is away on holidays or something? Saraian, I hope you are feeling better about the group now. Mrss P as promised here are your...

Hi Saraian. Well I promise that I will be on at least once a day, probably more. Today is only day one for me. I got on the scales and now I want to cry........seriously!! But I have until the 18th to lose 10lbs and I WILL do it and reach my first target! Then once that's done I will be...

Girls I have our total!! Thank to emma louise, saraian and Mrss P we have a total loss of 1.9%!!! Well done girls, and next wee I will be contributing in a BIG way to that percentage also!! Has anyone heard from CQ? It's been 3 weeks since she posted, I hope she is okay. Emma Louise - I...

Emmalouise that's grand, I will just divide your loss by four and then we have your losses for the next four weeks! You most certainly don't need to leave the team!! that's crazy!!!! Just give me your start weight before you got weighed last and I will divide your loss by 4 and will let Kelly...

Hi Mrss P and Saraian! Well done girls! you are fantastic!!!! Saraian....go on tell me your celeb crushes!! you have earned yourself some pics on here!! Kelly, if you are reading this, I hope the charity event went well, and how was the 4am start this morning!!! lol Have fun chick! So I...

Hi girls. Okay we need to get the results posted by SUNDAY! So I need everyone to either PM me their weight and their loss this week or post it on the boards before then so I can work out percentages. If you are unable to PM me and don't want to publicly display these details just say so on...

Emma Loiuse, what a fantastic loss!!! well done girl!!! Mrss P - I know what it's like, I'm only just SSing today (trying to avoid ss+ but i I have to then I will just for the first few days) We can do this chick! Okay girls there is 11 weeks till Christmas! 11 weeks for us to gt into our...

Hi Girls! Oh I would love to do it for a few weeks if that's okay with everyone else. I totally understand nobody wanting to publicly display their weigh ins so if you want, just ask and I will give you my email address and you can send it to there. Otherwise, just post on here or pm me...

Hi girls. Sorry I have been away too but I just haven't been able to get back into the swing of things.......it would seem that I am doomed to be a fat cow forever!!! Okay seeing as I have no desire to be a fat cow forever then I'm just gonna have to sort myself out, I have visitors coming...

Emma Louise that's so great!! well done, I bet you are chuffed to bits!!! I fell off again damn damn damn damn damn !!!! I'm sorry girls. Kel I'm, not weighing in this week, for two reasons. One - I don't want to know and two I don't want to bring the percentage of the group loss down. I...

Hi Kel. I get weighed on Monday so I will let you know, although it will most likely be a gain, I'm hoping to only gain a couple of lbs instead of the whole 11 that I lost! Will let you know hun xxx

Kelly, that's a fab idea! Even if you aren't on the diet Saraian, still remain on the team for when you will come back or even if you do a different diet you can still be a waterbabe! I don't care if we never win the teams weigh in at all, I love my little team for what it is.....a great...

Right girls, I have been on 1000 for two days and 810 yesterday so I'm doing ss today! Workin my way down as they say! Saraian, so sorry to see you leave but you gotta do what's right for you chick. Good luck hun and I hope your DS is feeling better soon xx Kelly, that's a fantastic weight...

Hi Girls! What a great idea about the pledge! I am staying well away from the scales, I don't want to see what damage I have caused until next Monday when I will have been ssing for a week! I know I'm a wuss, but I can't bare to see them go up again. My Pledge is to spend the next 7 days on...

Hi Waterbabes. Girls I'm so sorry but I have let you down BIG TIME. I haven't done any form of diet for almost a week, I have well and truly feel off the wagon. I'm starting again on Monday, had a word with my CDC and she was lovely bless her! We decided not to get weighed on Monday as it...

I can't recommend temping highly enough, especially when you team it with observing CM. If you temp it will not only confirm that you actually have ovulated and not just had a LH surge that most opk's will test positive for but it gives you great insight into your cycle, even enough to predict...

Girls, I got a surprise visit from my mam, she just called and said what are ye doing tomorrow and said she was coming over!! She got here on Thursday morning and has only just left. Lets just say that I have NOT been sticking to the plan (dammit dammit dammit!!!!) It's also DH's Birthday...

Hi Girsl! Well done Saraian, congratulate yourself!!! Kelly, you can do it hun, dust yourself down and just jump straight back on again, keep that number in front of your mind at all times and imagine how happy you will be when you see that number on the scales. That's what I do...

Hi Girls! Well today has been great! I'm only just after having my first shake....and no chicken!!!! ****does the Chandler bing dance and chants "I am doing SS, I am doing SS!! yippee!"**** Me being so perfect and all (ahem cough cough) I already pm'd on Monday with my fabulous weight loss...

Hi Girls. Kelly have you tried nurofen plus? I defy any headache to continue after two of those have gone down the hatch lol Fantastic loss by the way!! Mrss P don't worry, you will be back on track in no time. Saraian, hope you are having a great Birthday! EmmaLouise, I'm an apple too...

Happy Birthday Saraian!! I just looked at your location and what a surprise,......I used to live in Wisbech!!! I hope you have a fantastic day!! Kelly, I can't stand people like that, you make sure you lose loads of weight and rub her face in it! :D Okay baby is screaming so I gotta go...

Morning Girls! Well yesterday I did SS+ and I'm pretty sure I'm now in ketosis yippee!!! Today I'm aiming for SS, but if I have to go SS+ then that's okay too. I will start low and go up if I have to. The 11lb loss has given me the extra boost I needed I tell you. And there is this shop...

LOL Saraian! I'm only saying 11lbs as thats what my ticker said when I put my new weight in (it's too early for me to do maths lol) Thanks hun!

Hi Girls. Just popping in to tell you that Im 11lbs down from last Monday!! yee-haw!!!! I'm chuffed to bits! I'm making the switch tomorrow as I'm pretty sure that I will be in ketosis by then, so hopefully, by next week I will be in the early seventeens!!! (17.12.5 now) I might just hit...

Hi Saraina. Yea, you only eat protein, very very little carbs. Not the greatest diet in the world and I certainly couldn't do it long term, but it gets me into ketosis and thats what I need desperatly!! So only a couple more days and I will be SS ing again!!

Well I'm still on Atkins with NO cheats at all!!! I should be in ketosis pretty soon and then I will switch over. Why didn't I do this ages ago (insert stupid smiley here lol)

If you read the instruction leaflet doesn't it say that you should take your Met with carbs? Thats what it said on mine, and that's why I decided not to do both. Have a check and see if yours is the same. Best of luck to you! xx

Girls, I forgot to say!! I made a water babes thingy in my signature! Feel free to use it if you want to (I'm kinda proud of it seeing as I'm a technophobe lol) Well I'm off to continue with my diet, can't wait for ketosis and the CD - where the real weight loss will begin!!

I was on Metformin (for PCOS) but came off it when I started the CD. (ages ago lol) Met is used to help reverse the effects of insulin resistance, which effects your insulin and testosterone levels (hence the extra hair etc) which in turn effects your fertility however when you are on the CD...

KeepBusy.net - The Power of Photoshop That's unreal!! I wanna be photoshopped!!! lol

Hi Girls. Well after weeks and weeks of trying to get back on the wagon I have finally admitted to myself that it ain't gonna happen! So I have taken drastic action. I'm great on the CD once I am in ketosis, I think it's almost easy once you're no longer hungry. So today I started Atkins...

Did someone mention shoes!!! I heard the words Jimmy Choos and Loboutins :D Honestly,if I won I would just go to Clarks.... I just don't get the whole designer shoe thing at all........:whistle: (pmsl)

Thanks, it really is great living here, although now it's pouring down with rain and blowing a gale!! :rolleyes:

Will PM you now hun, it's a bit confusing though! lol

Girls look what we just found at the back of the house!! Seems that at the end of the rainbow there is a little boat! lol it's so pretty!! :D :)

Hi Girls. I'm not in ketosis yet but it's my own fault as I have been doing something along the lines of 810 and 1000. It's better than giving up I suppose and hopefully I will start to work down the plans until I get to SS+ and then SS! My goal today is to drink 4 pints of water!! and try to...

Morning girls. Just a quick post I intend to have no cheats today at all!! SS all the way!! Hope you are all okay, Speak later MB x

bugger bugger bugger!!!! Lets just say that my lunch was not ss friendly (or 810 for that matter) shoot!!! Anyway, I'm having a shake soon, it was just a slip, not a binge (okay a slight slip consisting of a few items) But I refuse to fall off, I jumped straight back on again and I'm...

Ah chick it's okay, just carry on as if it never happened. I like this saying..... A slip up is like accidentally dropping an egg onto the kitchen floor, you clean it up and move on, a binge is like throwing the rest of the eggs onto the floor in disgust......you just wouldn't do it! You can...

Morning girls!! I'm still going strong! yay! Kelly, you will have that lb off in no time whatsoever! CQ, how you doing? Saraian well done on your loss, every lb counts!! Oh baby slept from midnight till seven am yesterday and today!! I think we may have had a breakthrough!! Well I...

Hi Girls. I'm still doing good!! yay!! Still on the CD train! hoping to have a big loss on Monday!! Hope you girls are doing well too. Can't say I made the water target as such, but I did drink 3 cups of tea and 2 glasses of diet coke which is loads more than I usually drink! Oh I also...

oil

I agree hun. I put on 5lbs over the weekend so I totally would recommend that you keep at it chick (wish I could stick to my own advice lol) I'm doing great so far, no cheats and just had my first shake. I'm soooo gonna do it this time!! :D

Hi Girls. Did okay yesterday, will up my water intake today, I'm going for 4 pints today which would be a breakthrough for me!!! I hope I get into ketosis soon I tell you!! Kel, what a fab loss!! well done! saraian, so glad you are feeling better, hopefully we will both be heading for...

Oh Kelly, I hope you feel better soon, it's awful; not feeling well, especially when we are trying to focus on this diet! Hang in there chick, I bet you will have a fantastic weigh in tomorrow!! xxx

Hi Girls. Wow I have missed so much! Well It's a brand new start for me and I think the break was just what I needed, I feel under less pressure which is great! I'm all for staying on track and really giving this my all!! So sorry to see you go Jools, but you gotta do whats best for you...

Hi girls. Well I have just been in tears on the phone to my CDC, I failed again and am so upset. I had a good talk with her and she told me to just forget about it over the weekend to take the pressure off myself, but always keep it in the back of my mind that my official start date will be...

Mine is because I just LOVE his shoes :D Shame I can't actually afford them though lol

Hi Girls. Just a quick post as I'm about to feed the baby! I managed the day on SS+ yay!!! I didn't cheat or fall off the wagon, so I'm officially nearly finished with day one! Hope you are all doing well Okay I gotta dash, speak tomorrow Hazel x

Hi Girls. Well I managed to do 810 yesterday which is better than falling off the wagon i suppose! I'm actually feeling good this morning and am planning on doing SS. saraian24, you are so right!! I have actually written that phrase down and every time I'm struggling I will look at the words...

Morning girls. Just a quick one before I rush out! I'm determined today!! really really sure that no matter what happens I HAVE to stick to SS and I will!!! I will be back later to tell you all how well I have done :) MB xxx

Thanks Jools. Right, tomorrow I will buy one of those bottles of water and drink it while I'm in town all day!! Then I will just keep re filling it for the rest of the week! 7lbs loss.....here I come!

Thanks for that Jools, I will defo do that tomorrow! Kelly, I hope you don't mind but copied your water babes thing in your signature and added it to mine too, maybe it can be the team logo :D! Okay, so on Monday, I am aiming for a 7lbs loss!!! Fingers crossed I get it! MB x

Okay, it's in excel, and it's not posting (insert I'm stupid smiley here lol) Maybe I can email it if anyone wants it! MB x

Hi sevenate9 and 161ds. I'm on SS+ too, althuogh in a few weeks time I might go down to SS, we will see how I go! I find drinking the water really hard so I will admit to having coke zero, my cdc says that this is okay, but I have heard that many disagree. I figure it's better than diving...

Hi Caramelqueen, welcome to the team :D MooMoo, saraian24 wannabslim Manolo Blahnik Caramelqueen Only one more left to go!!

I think its six per team so we only need another two. Although we can probably start our team now and let it be known that we have two vacancies :D

Hi Guys. Just had a banana shake. Only got up an hour ago (was up with the baby from 4am till 7:30am) It was a tough night!!!

Yep I'm looking for a team also. Hey!! we are half way there to a new team wannabeslim and moomoo!!

Thanks guys for the welcome, it's so nice of you! I'm on SS+ right now but hoping to go down to SS when I feel ready. The thought that I could actually be 4 stone lighter by christmas is just amazing to me, and looking at a lot of the people on here, it is very achievable too!!
