another 3lb off for me, 15lb so far x

I have fibro. I'm sure I saw a fibro forum on minimins but can't for the life of me find it now. I've put on 5 stone since I first started having fibro symptoms (4 years ago) but only recently diagnosed xx

I don't think anyone meant to make you feel crap lovely. As mentioned above its basically Slim Fast type diet which as far as I remember is usually around 2lb loss a week (depending on your start weight etc). There are ways of doing VLCD cheaper than some of the plans look, you can get clearance...

3lb off for me this week so 13lb total for 2014 so far

WI day for me and 3lb down x

Thank you :) WI today and 3lb down - AF is in town so I'm hoping that's affected my loss. Been really good this week too. Never mind, happy with a total of 13lb loss, will be pleased to be past the first stone :)

Yep I'm on a proper plan. Wouldn't know where to start with a DIY plan

I'm having 700 calories and 50g carbs xx Was hoping for another good week but AF is due any minute now and bound to hinder Wednesday's WI. Doesn't she know when she isn't welcome :/

I just finished Halfway to nowhere by Steena Holmes & Elena Aitken. That was a good short read x

Thanks, I've found this weekend hard going Not because I've been hungry, just fancying everything! Bread, cheese & crackers, pasta & cheese, curry.... Arghhh. I had a naughty 5 mins on Friday night and ate about half dozen chocs from a box of black magic, whoops! Other than that I've kept well...

Thanks Joanne :) you're a star updating them x

The box does say to make up with water but going by the carbs and research it's to be done with water

Cheap as chips! I buy the ones that are past BBD (not use by) but nothing wrong with them Avidlite Dietimeal Meal Replacements Shakes CLEARANCE OFFER What a great loss for you too! Well done x

Thanks lovely, I see you're on Exante? Looks like your losses have been wonderful too, well done x

Look under thread tools at the top of the thread hun x

Thank you :) xx

Hiya, I started VLCD on NYD so has my first WI today and am 10lb down :) I have been using SetPlan and recently discovered it's the same as slim & save. I have bought a few slim and save packs from a selling page, loving the flavours so might be full time slim and saver soon!

Thanks mini :)

Fantastic!! Well done you :) I'm 10lb down this week. Love it xx

No idea about the badges I'm afraid, century is if you have 100lb+ to lose but no idea what the rest are x

I just posted about something non diet related and it *'d me so must be a few things you can't post x

Good luck Janet! You've done it once so you can do.it again. SW is great, if you have a Pin account look up SW meals, loads of great ideas on there x

Hi clolou90 :) I only joined last week, thought I'd drop by and say hello and wish you well on your weight loss journey. I too yoyoed after having my children, hoping to get it off and keep it off now!

Just popping by to say hi and good luck, well done on your loss so far xx

Thank you :) I'm happy, long may it continue x

Well I think home ed is cool but it seems most people think it's weird haha. Never mind, we enjoy it and the children are learning very well so that's the main thing :) It is quite strict. I struggled the first 3 days but not at all since. I wanted a good start to my weight loss so thoroughly...

Can I add an update for my 1st official WI, 10lb lost total - week 1. Thank you xx

Hee hee easy mistake although HE for me is home educating so not as cool as HE-man ;) I'm on a VLCD, slim & save xx

Thought I'd start a weigh in diary to help me keep track. I've just finished week 1. Start weight: 14st 10lb Week 1 loss: 10lbs (14st)

That's fantastic well done you!

10lb off for me this week x

I'm reading The eye collector by Sebastian Fitzec (hope I've spelt that right!) It's pretty good, I got 60% through in on sitting as didn't want to put it down. It's a bit scary, a thriller/ murder type

Wow you've been busy :) hope your first day goes well. All the best for your fabulous plans x

Hi! You sound very focused which is a fantastic start! Wishing you all the best with your weight loss journey x

Hiya! I'm new here this week too & started a VLCD Wednesday. Good luck with SW, I LOVE SW chips mmmmm

Thank you! I'm feeling positive that this is the year I will start liking myself! Xx

It's great going. I might try that next week.... might... haha

Ah thank you :) x

Can I join in? I'm new to VLCD and trying out a few brands at the moment, Exante is one of the, that I'm preferring at the moment. If it's okay to join here are my stats HEmam - starting weight 206lb; target loss 88 lb; loss this week 7 lb; 2014 loss so far 7 lb; still to lose 82 lb (although...

Looks fab doesn't it! Here's to a good weight loss year for us all :) I WI in Wednesday so shall update here once I have my new loss (hopefully!!)

Gosh I wish I could resist weighing! When I'm trying to lose I always weigh every time I pass the scales haha! Trouble is when I'm off plan/ diet I don't get on the darn things at all whoops!

Is there a microwave there? That way you could make it the day before and zap it at work. Pasta with a little oil, baby spinach (raw) a few pine nuts, pepper, baby tomatoes and home made pesto (Roughly chopped garlic clove whizzed in a food processor with 40g of basil leaves. Finely grate 30g...

Good luck for Wednesday! It's also my WI day eek! still positive head on eh? ;)

I used to have the mugshots, omlette, pasta salad, salad with boiled egg, that kinda thing, maybe a cold rice salad. Are you at work lunch time or home? I was home so used to have whatever I fancied even if it wasn't the right time of day, I have been known to have pasta for breakfast haha. Are...

Gosh that is sad. In the nicest possible way she must have issues that have lead to this.

Ah of course! I have a short memory, I was thinking, wow super spy here lol ;) I remember first worrying about being "fat" when I was about 5. Looking back at photos I wasn't fat at all, I have no idea where it came from so young. Later on I was picked on at school for being the fat one, again...

Hi all, I thought I had posted here before but it seems I didn't. I started a VLCD, for the first time, on New Years Day and am feeling happy and focused. I would LOVE to lose 6 stone total but am not sure if that's too ambitious for me and my figure/ body shape so am aiming for 4.5 stone...

Hi Me2U1605 I'm a veggie also, I tried to do SW on my own (couldn't afford the fees at the time) and loved the food just didn't lose any weight so was probably doing it wrong! I'm doing a VLCD (very low calorie diet) at the moment but will eventually go back to SW - I love SW chips Mmmmm! I...

How did you know that? Haha They are almost 3 and just 4 so yeah maybe too young to notice anything. I'm a worry pot! I'm getting more and more confident about VLCD the more I read (on here and FB groups) so that's making a big difference. Thank you, I appreciate that, I'm really not all that...

Oooh Jeanette that is a wonderful idea! I might have to try that shhhh ;) The veg soup is okay, I'll have it if I have to but not my first choice, I'd rather have shakes

Hiya, I'm a newbie here, started my diet this week at 14st 10lb :( so my first mini goal is to get in the 13's, I'm now down 7lb so 14st 3lb. Hoping to get there by WI but it'll be a lot of work I'd imagine. Best of luck to those still working toward it

Yes you're probably right to be honest. I think the idea of VLCD was, and still is at times, rather daunting and if I'm honest I didn't think it was realistic beyond a couple of months, now I'm almost a week in I feel more positive about it but still not sure I would be able to do it long term...

Good luck! I'm new to VLCD this week too, although I'm doing a bit of a mix of a few brands, clearance bits at the moment as a tight budget. Day 5 for me. I had some veg soups but they really aren't that nice are they :/ I'm much preferring shakes

I don't know really, I think when I decided to do VLCD I assumed it'd be something I'd not manage to stick to for long. Also thought it'd be very expensive but I've been buying clearance shakes so it's actually not expensive at all. I'll probably see how it goes at each target. I also don't want...

Anyone else here a paper cutter? I'm not exactly advanced, it's just a hobby and something fun to do for family and friends presents, also really relaxing :) Not worked out how to add photos on here yet but would be interested in hearing from other cutters x

My hubby has been really supportive so far, he does my shakes for me and offers encouragement when I am struggling x

Thanks lovelies! I have a bit of a mix at the moment, some New You, slim & save & avidlite. Mostly slim & save. I'm now day 5 & 7lb down. Not sure if that's good or not at this stage? I mean it's fab to be 7lb lighter but not sure if it's "supposed to be" more by now? No more hunger or cravings...

Noted :)

Started this week and hoping for a total 89lb loss. 5.5lb down 83.5 to go..

Hi All, I started on NYE and now have a few different types of shakes and am liking them so far, I have some veg soups but not so keen on those. Anyway, today is day 4 and I'm 5.5lbs down but STILL not convinced I'll get great results (ever the pessimist). I found this forum yesterday and have...
