Wahoo, made it through and rewarded with an 11lb loss!!! Hopefully that will keep me going through the next few days :D

Eating my words.. the mind is a powerful thing! I am so used to constantly picking here I have been hungry since I walked through the door.. huge mugs of peppermint tea are my friend. Popped to buy some cans of coke zero too, I don't want to be drinking them all the time but the change of taste...

Busy day yesterday so didn't manage to update but another successful 100% day! Visiting family for a few days and usually it revolves around food.. but instead I have my shakes and everyone knows and as I am feeling so focussed I know it won't be an issue. The only downside is my first weigh in...

Thanks Lynne :) Day 5 and feeling much better. Also feeling proud that I didn't let go yesterday.. we went to the cinema and instead of thinking 'I deserve a treat after doing so well on my assignment' and going all out with treats and / or a meal I stuck to a can of coke zero and then some...

Thoughts of food have been tough today though.. I find the weekends harder with having the OH at home.. tried keeping busy and reminding myself the feeling will pass.. it's not even real hunger, just a habit. Trying to not shy away from food this time too by still cooking for / with him and...

I know the feeling! My chart just has a space for loss that week and a 'could lose x lbs' at the end. Really need to stick to it this time.. have my graduation and a big holiday coming this summer and our wedding next year etc. Another day down.. had some really good news today about my final...

Thank you! This really has to be the last time so I'm going all in!!

Only read a couple of pages so your diary so far Lynne but well done so far! I love the image in your sig, it's so true, no matter what you have lost almost 2 stone and that's fantastic! I hope this week goes well!! :)

Almost the same again.. just a bit more.. aiming for 6.5 stone to get me to 10.5, I can't really picture it but it is do-able like you say.. the idea I could go down to 9ish stone for BMI seems like a joke though, lol, going to play it by ear.. anything under 11 will be great..... just a long...

I feel like I could have written parts of your first post word for word.. currently on day 3 so almost the same time frame too. Good luck!!!

I'm quite a visual person so the kitchen is quite amusing at the moment.. I have two cocktail glasses on the window sill, one full of coloured stone type things for lbs to lose and the other empty.. for now.. ready to transfer across as I go. Then a countdown chart on the fridge with the weeks...

Well, I joined months ago for a 'Final Stand' and it just never really happened.. I blame the holiday season! But every year at this time I give something up.. this year I have given up.. FOOD!!! Ok, so not strictly true.. I will be giving up food that requires chewing, lol! So for the next 6...

Day 3: Feeling lighter this morning and more positive.. found last night hard and I was quite grumpy initially but I realise no one is making me do this.. I have chosen it because I want quick results and in order to achieve that I need to get on and make the most of it :-)

Wow!! That is a huge and fantastic weight loss!! Well done!!

I re-started yesterday and hoping to be successful for longer this time around!!

Thank you.. made it through day one yesterday.. and day two is going well so far, so already further along on the returning road than before :-)

Day 2: woke up proud that I had managed a full day yesterday.. and overcome the temptation to eat with my other half in the evening! Started with a cappuccino shake this morning.. with half a cup of strong, black coffee added to help me start the day! Had a vegetable soup for lunch (glad I...

Hi guys, I have restarted today.. I only managed 3 weeks last time and then a night off turned into a few months :-( Determined to be more successful this time!

Hi all, I have decided that I am fed up of starting and failing every diet.. I have tried Cambridge before but after 3 weeks I came off 'for one night' to celebrate our dating anniversary and never got back into it! I am currently still 11lbs lighter than when I started that first time around...
