I'm still doing it! Shocker! I have weighed, forgive me lol..... 8lbs down yesterday and just the boost I needed :) My auntie is trying to lose a further stone so that's helping me. Now I just need to keep this up please God x

Thanks all! Lou those words really brightened my day, I hope you're right :D I'm doing ok! I'm fighting my thoughts. Deciding on what is best for me once my Exante runs out. Iv been utterly rubbish for so long, and ironically each time I climb on and fall off, I end up fatter, heavier, further...

Well done BG another great result very deserving too! You're doing so well, I'm going to do better this month and stop falling off the wagon x

Well done MM!!! That's fantastic x

Well done carrying on after a blip! Have a great day x

I love your last post so much. Really motivated me! I can't wait to slip into my clothes again! You've done amazing, what a huge loss wow x

Well done Twinkle you're amazing. Every time I fail and wander off, I come back and see you still soldiering on and on and on. You're an inspiration, doing so well! Baggy jeans are a great feeling, I faintly remember lol. Given up wearing mine now and am back in leggings but not for long!!! Have...

Wow..... Day 35! Big big well done! Catching up on your diary was just the boost needed x

Well done Lynne you have been doing so well. Just catching up. Hope you've had a lovely weekend x

Still doing fantastic Susie well done. I'm joining you and Bee with the no weighing! I want to get to Feb 28th and see a miracle lol. Have a great day x

Hi Bee so happy you're still doing great! Great to read lots of you are staying off the scales too, Iv decided no weighing until Feb 28th :D Hope your tummy eases for you, maybe a loo visit will help x

Big well done to everyone that stayed on track x

Wow your wedding outfit is beautiful, you will look and feel stunning with all the hardwork x

Went off the rails again. Ready to succeed! x

Not going anywhere this month! Heavier today than I started damn it. I need to be as close to creeping near/in the 10s as possible. Losing 20lb would take me to 10.13... Let's go x x-Katie-x: Weight 16st 4lb, Loss 3lb, Month loss 3lb, Target loss 14lb Lynne: Weight 12st 3lb; week loss 0lb...

Oh god I vanished again. No long explanations or excuses, less talk more action. Today is Day 1, going well, feeling good rawr! Scales are gone. Weightloss app downloaded on my mobile. Goals set. Feb 28th I will make it, and I will weigh then. Hopefully get a nice bit of weight off by then...

You are all so supportive! Thank you :) I'm being rubbish at reading and running at the moment sorry, but tomorrow's my last shift before 4 days off so I will be catching up and starting a new challenge Saturday - exercise bike lol. Bit sure what to aim for? 5 miles per day or something :) Diet...

Jumping on ever so quickly just to say I'm still here! Doing ok but want to up my exercise asap and can't squeeze it in yet. Having to take my work home with me so not got a lot of online time at the moment but it keeps me busy I guess! Through the day I think a lot about my weight iv noticed...

Just off to bed so will read and reply tomorrow but wanted to update that Day 1 is in the bag hallelujah :) x

Couldn't have gone any worse lol I'm in 12s! Very naughty week. It's over, I'm back and I'm going to do it x

Well done TH really well done you've done brilliant! Agree with Twinkle there! I'm taking a leaf out if everyone's book and am going to stay on plan if it kills me lol have a great day :) x

Don't crack Susie - I can't tell you how upset, distraught and hideous I have felt this week for falling, gaining, bloating.. For nothing. It's not worth it. I would give my right arm to be on week 4, desperate to be there. stay there, you've worked hard and the weight is slipping off you...

Amazing Miss Mac well done on the weightloss and almost being in month 2!!!!! x

Twinkle you are incredible you really really are. 27lbs!! 27lbs!! Well done, you are inspiring so many of us x

Oh it's fine! I will have a read! The motivation from diaries, all of yours, is what I need :) Infact I'm going to browse before and after photos on here if I get time. I love B&A pics! I'm doing my own way of Exante this time. I realise if I'm restricted, I always want to break free, and...

Wow wow wow well done super slimmer! Huge losses, you've been flying through x

Well done keeping at it CLA! Better than I did lol. Fresh start, it's never too late! Best of luck, in 11 weeks you will look back and feel so smug that you stuck at it :) x

Iv totally messed up my challenge and am in the 12s now so iv actually gained weight, but will join again in the Feb challenge. Well done everyone! Great work x

Omg BG 14.10!! Well done! How long did I go for?! Just caught up and you've done really well, proving that you can pick yourself up quickly and be rewarded for staying positive and getting on with it. So motivating, thank you and well done x

Oh Lynne you have been doing so well! I love your consistency, I will take lessons from your posts and apply them to myself! Everyone is right, sticking to TS will inevitably shed the lbs, and what a hypocrite I am saying this after my absence from getting a STS lol! But now I know :) Well...

Bee you are doing fantastic! I am going to read your diary when in need of boost. I really like your method of Exante, and your attitude and staying power. I lost nothing last week, and I ran away, eating my body weight in carbs for what feels like forever - almost gaining a whole STONE in...

Couple of hours in and already feel so much better, and determined, and refocused. Have not yet read diaries etc but am going too, and read my diary comments. Hi Lou I didn't have a diary last year I joined this forum just a few weeks ago. Lost weight last year but did it with my Aunt not...

Had a major unexpected surprise announcement from a family member and ended up celebrating all weekend, BUT, sensibly as possible, meat/salads and it as many wines as I could have. TS 100000% tomorrow morning and a huge catch up. Excited and looking forward to the 'empty feeling' rather than...

*crawls from under the food pile* Hello all, thank you so very much for such lovely words of support. Shame I decided to run off and hide before reading! Iv spent the last week rebelling, with a vengeance. A VENGENCE. This has resulted in the most catastrophic reading on the scales. Even I am...

I wish I'd read your posts before I cracked and jumped excitedly on the scales this morning. 11.7 I have no words. Have a good day everyone else x

Best of luck hun :) x

Hello and welcome, very best of luck :) x

Welcome back both and best of luck :) x

You are so right Bee! Today I was rushed off my feet and out of the house before I was awake! Hardly had any liquids until afternoon, which in turn made me hungrier than recent days. I have fantasised about different foods today but as in 'I will enjoy that at target.' I am starting to get a...

I wonder how much closer il be on weigh in Saturday!

I like that tip of shake, sip, shake, sip! How are you getting on hun x

I really like that theory! 1/4 of the way through an 8 week stint. I'm going to apply that thinking too!! I only want to do 8 weeks :) You're doing really well x

How are you getting on hun x

Well done Karla, going strong! Pleased the ring is feeling loose, it's those moments that bring a triumphant smile :) x

Miss Mac you are doing yourself proud well done! Doing so well. I agree about when you will reach 14s, not long at all! Glad you enjoyed your day off :) x

You're still doing fantastic TH well done. Glad you wore the dress and felt comfortable all day. Great that your daughter has the membership and you have a gym buddy! Meal invites are tricky, I dread them lol. Shame you can't just ask for chicken breast and salad if they can do it without all...

Very well done Bee! You're doing smashing. I hope you're feeling a little better now now poor you. Weigh in for you soon and the start of another week to mark on that calendar! Well done :) x

You're doing great still BG! and you can do great over the weekend too, you'll feel fantastic for it next week. Hang in there! x

Wow, amazing restraint with the cake! That's 99% of my problem, one nibble = whole cake. You did amazingly well! Really glad you are still flying through well done x

Well done everyone!

Twinkle you are still steaming along well done. Ha I would love to see that mans face when you whip off your coat!! Got to adore those moments to give you that ooomph! You sound rushed off your feet with work, all great calorie burn! I found that today I barely got to drink anything until...

Eat - sleep - weigh - repeat. Omg I love it lol! :D Sorry you had an upsetting row with hubby2b, those rows throw me all over the place. I'm glad things are ok for you now and you have a clear head to carry on with the plan, I also know how that feels! Previously iv eaten south food that I...

Well done Lynne, so glad you're still going strong! Chicken was a great choice, something to be proud of! I personally would not start my counter again because of some super Exante-friendly chicken. Keep your morale up, you've not fallen off the TS wagon you just had a teeny but of protein once...

Last toilet visit was 1am (sorry) all good today :) Need a big catch up, sorry for lack of posts and support from me, work is really hectic at the moment. Currently typing on my phone as I walk! Huge huge temptation today, few minutes resentment, then had a shake at 1pm and felt great again...

Thank you :) I definitely think it's the peppermint tea, iv just been reading up on it and bowels is its 'power' apparently. http://www.traditionalmedicinals.com/product/smooth-move-reg-peppermint I guess anything affects everyone differently lol. I'm not poorly and don't have the bug that's...

TMI Oh my gosh I have no idea what's wrong but my body is in bits! I have excruciating abdominal pain and am living on the loo today! Which is watery I might add. Sorry but I want to record an honest journey lol. Today I started my afternoon with peppermint tea mixed into a hot chocolate shake...

Thank you :) I do feel really motivated, it happened like a switch, I'm just so relieved to feel content again. Yesterday I got to bed before realising I'd only had one pack all day. Long may this continue. Staying off the scales is making this go much faster which is great. The pressure is...

Well done on being half a stone lighter already! You're doing great Karla have another good day x

Morning Twinkle, you are flying through! I hope your toilet troubles ease soon. Another good day ahead for you x

Well done TH very positive and doing great! x

Great to hear Bee, you sound very in the zone x

Well done Lynne! Great loss! Keep going x

Well done it all adds up x

Wow! And there's your reward right there! Very well done Miss Mac!!! x

Relax, you ARE going to get through this. Waking up tomorrow morning happy, but suddenly remembering you fell off the wagon, would be horrendous. You don't want that. Wake up tomorrow feeling damn proud! Motivated! Slimmer! Ready to get your well earned results! Drink some bouillon, tea...

Best of luck Dolly! I'm sure I replied to you on another diary that I thought was yours oops! I hope you find your favourite pack soon, there's a good few packs available now thankfully x

Thank you :) I am really happy but aware it can change, although I feel pretty secure right now and it's come from nowhere. I'm going to do this until the end! Yeah I am relieved to have ditched those scales, it's new on me but liberating. Secretly hoping for 11.4 Saturday or even better 9.10...

Well done Sammy!!! Meet you there soon x

Yay for loose trousers! Funnily enough I just accidentally discovered a handful of my friends are on Herbalife! Skinny friends though! I have not told anyone bar OH about my diet 'this time'. Well done for walking all over another day! I hope your toilet troubles ease soon x

Have a lovely evening Susie :) x

Totally agree Bee. You've got this! x

Great news Twinkle bless your Mum! Sounds like you had a lovely time, and relief :) x

I think it's the fact protein isn't too naughty, so we can be tempted. The taste of chicken doesn't compare to the feeling of dropping lbs on weigh day though :D x

You're sounding positive and strong Katie :D x

An extra bar was a great choice Bee. I tell myself IF I need to I will have 4 packs. Much better than nibbling or worse! Pah to scales! We all know the whys and how's, but when it's us, the numbers do bother us. Forget it. You know come weigh in you will have dropped lots of lovely lbs :D x

Susie you will be more than fine. You have done amazingly and you won't give that up for a few minutes taste, days of regret. 'Don't give up the feeling of success for the taste of defeat.' Have a great night :) x

That's fantastic! Very well done keep going x

Well said BlueGem :) Good luck for weigh in Lynne x

Thanks both :) Something has 'clicked' and I can't explain it? I feel like my strength came back :) I am so amazed that I really havnt touched the scales! :o Something to look forward to Saturday fingers crossed x

Thank you :) Freeeeeeeeeeeezing! Hot mug of bouillon will help once I'm home :) Similar plan today, no packs before 12pm. I don't like to have anything after 7pm as it feels wrong lol. Strange because I know not having breakfast is wrong. Feeling good, enjoy your day everyone x

Good luck Dolly! There are quite a lot of products around now so hopefully you will find your favourite. Shame you don't like the shakes. Have a great day x

Have a great day BG you're doing great x

Have a great day CLA x

Well done Sammy you're doing so so well! Have a great day :) x

Well done Zoe that's amazing x

Have a great day Katie! x

Excellent post Bee and so true. Have a great day x

Brilliant TH!!! Sounds like you've got this in the bag now. Have a great day :) x

Splitting the packs is a great way to space the eating out. Have a great day Karla x

Have a lovely day Susie! x

Have a great day Twinkle, no doubt you will pass today with flying colours! You're doing fantastic well done x

Well done Lynne! I agree with Twinkle, you can do 23 days and more, don't doubt yourself. Doing great Lynne :) x

Best of luck for weigh in Miss Mac! 2 weeks! Wonderful! Superstar x

Best of luck Charlie Brown x

Thank you :) I have my smallest pair of pastel skinny jeans hung up in view. I just about squeezed into them at target, and they're the only pair I know I wouldn't get on me now so I don't even try! Iv hung them up to remind me. When I look at them I think of last Summer and flip flops and...

Good plan :) I had lots on my list when I finished my diet last year. I probably shouldn't have eaten them all so much and so often though, then I wouldn't be back dieting again so soon lol! Refreshing to see you do so well and stay positive. Well done Miss Mac x

Spent an hour looking at last years photos and without wanting to jinx myself, today has been a breeze since. If I could just bottle this feeling :)

Well done Katie!!!!!

Hey Sammy! Similar weight/height/goal as me :) Fantastic loss already well done x

Thank you :) Todays plan for shakes is 2pm - 4pm - 6pm - survive evening cooking for everyone then get to bed. Today is day 10 of the diet but day 3 of the restart grrr. Should have just stuck to it. I feel like I'm drinking too much water with Exante flavourings in. I love it and it helps get...

So exciting Sammy!!!!!!

Well done Katie that's fantastic! Great start to the day x

Well done Susie! Hope you have another great day x

Morning Karla I wish i Could offer advice on that but I'm currently trying to figure it out myself. I feel the same with hunger and temptation etc, constant battle. But I know it's worth it, we will get there! Today I'm trying 2pm - 4pm - 6pm. Have a great day x

Well done getting straight back on CLA! Enjoy the gym :) x

Bee you are doing brilliantly! Very well done, keep it up and have a great day x

Fantastic Twinkle well done. I really miss that confidence and ease! Your post has boosted me :) Have a great day superstar x

I love your dream post Miss Mac :) You're doing so well, be very proud! Well done have a great day x

Great losses everyone well done! x

Have fun at the gym! You're doing well TH have a great day x

I like the 10 day idea. You're doing well, Have a good day Lynne x

Ha! Tango man! Brilliant! I made it through Lou but I very nearly had chocolate biscuits. On a plus I discovered it really was psychological, because once I watched weightloss videos on YouTube, the 'hunger' went. It's just how fast the urges come, that what worries me, I can change my mind in...

I think I need someone to jump out and whack me with a mallet or something lol x

Will do, they sound yummy :) All 3 shakes had, didn't take me long huh. Just scouring the forum for coping mechanisms when that urge to cheat comes. I never had these problems to deal with last time. I guess being medically obese gives you all the will power needed to change. It's really hard...

Coping mechanisms. Please could anyone/everyone give their 'secret' tips on how you squash those instant, overwhelming urges to eat. I did this diet at my biggest and shrunk to my smallest, without a break, cheat or slip up. I had no urges or temptation, it was literally a breeze. I can only...

Also had an email from Exante about new Mango and Passionfruit shakes OMG! *drool*

Been home an hour and had a chocolate shake, gorgeous, it felt like cheating because it was chocolately yum. I have 2 packs left to enjoy too, happy about that! Aim tomorrow is to have the first pack no sooner than 2pm. Then continue that habit :)

Day is going well thank you. Resisted temptation! Looking forward to having 3 yummy shakes this evening :D

Thank you lovelies :) Yesterday went well, and today I'm away from home and not back until early evening. I havnt had any packs and havnt brought any with me. Plan is to suffer it out and get in the habit of keeping my packs for afternoon/evening - my danger zone. This may work much better...

Hope you feel better Bee and well done being so strong. You are doing great, have a good day x

Well done hun you are doing great, and that's exciting new about your dress! Have a good day x

Thanks Karla! I have all the water flavourings (yummy) but wish I could enjoy black coffee. Unfortunately I don't lol. Have a great day x

Well done Susie you superstar, you are doing so well. Have a great day x

Wow Twinkle! Well done for 2 weeks done, and your Fantastic loss today! Love your tattoos and flowers, what a great start to the day for you well deserved x

Well done getting back on track and breezing through Lynne. Keep it up and have a great day x

You are doing so well have a good day Katie! X

Great plan TH and well done you on the walk before even reaching the gym! Sounds like a good day ahead x

Oh Tunisia will be wonderful I'm so jealous! Just imagine how great you are going to feel bursting with confidence there. Well done Miss Mac you are breezing through this now x

Thank you Lynne, Karla, Susie. So comforting to know I'm not alone or crazy! I'm going to spend some time reading up on food addiction, bingeing etc. iv always considered myself just greedy, from a very very young age and onwards. To hear there may be an actual explanation to my eating...

I'm the same, always got a drink in hand! Really missing coffee though but couldn't drink it black, what have you got? x

Wow that is fantastic well done! New stone bracket already, what a boost. Very very well done x

Thank you Lou, I'm going to look for that on you tube :) Today is going excellent, but it will do, because I ate enough yesterday to keep me full for days lol. No seriously, I do feel great today, refreshed. Probably the lovely weather outside reminding me of summer :) Not had a single pack...

Thanks Dolly, It helps that we are all doing the same thing and that some of us have done it already but regained. We will do it again! Have a great day :) x

Thank you my lovelies :) Why do I do it, Gish I really can't work myself out. I see people take a few squares of chocolate from a whole bar, and wrap the rest up and put it away. And I think how can you do that?! If I open a chocolate bar, I eat the chocolate bar, then more and more and more...

Well done TH! Love that post. I feel exactly the same today, hitting this day with a vengeance and so determined. I fell off the waggon last night in spectacular style but that's it, enough! Good luck TH we are getting this week under our belt 100% x

Well done staying strong Chris. I fell off the damn waggon and let me tell you the self disgust and disappointment is not worth it. Well done :)

Back 10000% with a vengeance and furious with myself. No weighing until Saturday, and I want to see 11.4 to make me officially normal weight. I can damn well do this. I will x

My first weigh in today and pleased with a 6lb loss taking me to 11.7 :) Ok now confession time. I cracked last night, really bad, and binged. I tried all my tricks to talk myself out of it, and it was keeping me ok. Then I had a row with OH and just marched to the kitchen and ate a fajita...

Thanks Dolly but shame on me for regaining 2 lol. I'm finding it much more challenging thus time than the first time, but I will get there. Hope you are well, have a great day :) x

Hope you managed to hang on hun, have a great day x

It really does doesn't it. We will have achieved them all before we know it. Have a great day x

Have a great day MM x

You will get there TH forget about the slip up and don't waste time feeling down about it. Every morning is a new day, have a great day x

Well done Katie have a great day x

I feel exactly the same. It comes in waves, some days I feel positive and great, other days I hate how much work we have to put in for this to happen. I resent the time it's taking even though I know you can't reach goal overnight. I actually lost 5st doing this for 5 months just last year, got...

Well done Twinkle you are flying through, can't wait for your weigh in. Have a great day x

Great loss Sammi well done. Hope it went well last night x

Wow well done Susie that is fantastic! Have a great day x

Hope you are ok Lynne miss your posts x

I have been using Exante water flavourings and I'm a huge juice drinker always, so have been guzzling up to 7 litres a day which is making me bloated. I hope you feel better today. You are doing so well Miss Mac x

Well done to you all for your losses! WI for me today and a 6lb loss x 1st weigh in brings me down into the 14s. well happy. Have a good day everyone x Lynne: Weight 12st 12lb; Loss 0lb; Month loss 0lb; Target loss 14lb Susie58: Weight 15st 7lb; Loss 8lb; Month loss 8lb; Target loss 14lb...

Wow fantastic result Bee well done! Almost a stone! I bet you are happy, have a great day x

Brilliant losses so far well done everyone x

That's a good idea, maybe just weekly weighing will be easier to do. So I will only weigh on 11th, 18th, 25th and the last day of the month 31st. I hope to be back in 10s by the last weigh in :) x

Hi Skupio best of luck x

Wow Katie that last post was words out of my mouth. So exact x

Hi Dolly. I lost around 5st last year but have regained 2st. I am currently on day 7 and want to lose the gain. Best of luck :) x

Well done Katie you're doing great x

I can't believe I have only just found this thread! Well done so far everyone. Day 7 today and my first weigh in tomorrow :) My mini goal for the end of January is to be in 10s and to only weigh weekly after tomorrow x

Hi GQ good luck with your restart I regained 2st too. I'm on day 7 x

Hi Zoe good luck. I regained 2st and and am restarting too. I still squeeze myself into my clothes, even though they cut in now and don't really fit lol. Great loss so far well done x

Well done on that fantastic 9lb loss! Good luck for your restart, I have also restarted. You've made a great beginning! x

Thank you all :) Day 7! It's my first weigh in tomorrow. I have been thinking of removing the scales afterwards, and not weighing until the end of the month, if I can. Just so I don't 'watch the pot boil'. I daily weigh, and it can make the time drag. I would like to get on with me day, stick...

Love the positive mental attitude. Why not list a few mini goals that are close? I have done that to stop me focussing on the long game. I look forward to losing 3lb to take me to normal weight and not overweight according to BMI, for example :) Have a great day x

You will have a week under your belt before you know it TH. I found it difficult yesterday and was so hungry. The day before was a complete breeze. We just have to take the rough with the smooth and we will get to the end :) x

Have another great day Susie x

Well done Bee. Have a great day and good luck for weigh in :) x

Well done Miss Mac have a great day x

Well done twinkle almost in week 3 already flippin heck! Telling people NO can be a long conversation so well done sticking to your guns with the coffee. Have a great day x

Well done MM that us a fantastic loss! I have been thinking the same as you about time dragging when you obsess. I would absolutely live to not weigh until the end of the month, I may give it a good go :) Have another great day well done again x

We can do it Tigs x

Have a great day Lynne x

Thank you TH I bloody love fajitas! x Thanks for the support Tigs we most certainly will do it. Well done for getting back up and carrying on x Thank you Susie I thought all was well and then this hunger came and i had to battle. Thankfully after that it was fine but it's made me realise I'm...

Well done for picking yourself up and carrying on TH! x

Well done in another brilliant day Bee. I'm not sure what causes my back pain, if I'm on my feet more than 2 hours it starts too, always the bottom of my back. Elder family members have crippling arthritis so I have always put it down to bad bones lol. Weigh in is almost here! x

Well done Susie! Brilliant x

Well done Miss Mac another brilliant day x

Hope you have had a good day Lynne x

Day 13 sounds super, and 2nd weigh in coming around already. You are unstoppable well done x

Gosh no, don't go near scales after morning. I did that last time on this diet and I would always be 4-6lb heavier honestly! You will have lost more, and besides, those numbers don't rule you. The diet will do it all just stick with it and you can't go wrong x

Wow Susie you are a bundle of energy go you! Well done on another great day, there's no stopping you x

Thank you :) I teetered right to the edge of the wagon this evening, urges just wouldn't go away and cooking El Paso fajitas with chocolate desert for OH sent my cravings crazy. It was a hunger that's been building since 2pm from nowhere. Really resent the diet sometimes lol like a child...

Well done Twinkle. After getting timed out a lot I now copy and paste every diary entry I make x

Thank you Tigs 11.7 today how are you getting on x

When I think I was at target just last June, and have regained 2st, it can really get to me. So to stay positive about tomorrow instead of next month, I have written myself a list of mini goals that mean something to me to focus on, one step at a time, until I'm back :) Mini Goal Weight...

Thank you Susie encouragement really helps. The sugar is a great visual. I have the black pebbles at the bottom of the glass and the clear ones sitting on top of them. I can't wait for the day I take a black pebble :) x

Day 6 today. Honk! Day 1/50 done. Honk! Day 2/50 done. Honk! Day 3/50 done. Honk! Day 4/50 done. Honk! Day 5/50 done.

God bless ketosis and it's magic ability to banish hunger :) It doesn't stop food fantasies though, which now and again I have. So it's day 6 and I don't remember the last time I was here so I am really happy. 11.7 today and I shouldn't daily weigh but I do it prepared for no loss so it's a...

Thank you Twinkle you have to love ketosis x Thank you Lou your words really spoke to me. That's what I enjoy about this forum, it seems full of mind readers - we all feel/act/do the same and understand everything about each others journeys. Invaluable thank you :) This will be your year, day...

Have a really great day Susie x

Have a great day CrazyLady good luck x

Have a great day Lynne x

Well done for resisting last night Twinkle. Have a great day x

I agree about starvation mode Susie. Have a great day MM x

Have a great day Miss Mac x

Karla is right, every day is a new day. Every morning is a new chance to do whatever you want, regardless of what happened yesterday. Just start fresh :) x

Strangely I have been in agony with my back these last 3 days, always my lower back now and again. Have another great day Bee x

Well done on your amazing result. Week 2 how wonderful well done x

What a fantastic, inspiring post. Dead right - banish the thoughts. It's all in the mind and we control our mind. No food would be worth starting again and feeling upset and down tomorrow. Nothing compares to that image in your head of yourself at goal looking and feeling on top of thd world...

Good luck little owl, an amazing loss already well done x

Hi Karla you've been doing great well done. Banish those food thoughts, I find that the really bad night is usually the night before ketosis, might just be me. You have done it before so you can and will do it again. You will feel great 20lb+ lighter in Italy - focus on that image :) x

Hi CrazyLady you've been doing great, put the slip up behind you and carry on. Well done on the huge 11lb loss that is great x

11.8 today and don't want to stay here long x

Evening TH I'm glad the heating is fixed and hope your headache has gone. Well done on another day x

Well done MM you ate just flying through now. I'm glad your UC hasn't flared up for you. You seem to know your body very well which is great. I can't wait for your weigh in results not long to go x

You are doing super. I would love to run but don't know where to start or what to do. And if I did, I wouldn't have the confidence to be seen doing it lol. In all seriousness I would love to start. Well done on another great day x

I don't know where to start you are doing so well. Love the tidy calendar thing! Sounds like me lol. Well done on your huge loss that is brilliant Bee. I'm naughty and keep weighing and recording the results. Big big well done, our weigh in is not far now. One whole week will be ours x

That is great Miss Mac I'm sure it will be much of the same from now on, well done you're doing so well x

Hope you are having a lovely night Lynne x

Thank you all x Susie the 3st will be off in no time and you will feel great for Spring. We all will x

Chicken us great I don't think you have anything to worry about. Great choice well done x

Another great day Susie well done, and those steps count are a great result too x

Thanks Twinkle we will indeed :) I hope you've had a good day, week 2 weigh in will come around before you know it. My first is Saturday x

Thank you fellow slimmers :) Another great day, and I managed to resist all my favourite foods that I had to cook, so I'm feeling confident again. I wonder how long I will need to be on this to reach target. 8/9/10 weeks? Longer? It will be worth it to throw off my coat on a warm spring morning...

So today feels a lot lot better :) I still wear all the clothes that I bought/wore at 10st as I refuse to go up or buy more, so the jeans I wear today are really cutting into me. More incentive to drop the weight, I can't wait for them to feel loose and fit properly. With Spring approaching I...

That's great Chris, so much easier now the big K has arrived. PHEW! x Thank you Miss Mac I am so relieved lol x Thanks TH I really hope so, I could kick myself because I was in 10s on Halloween and by New Year I was almost in 12s. Feel positive now though, I am heading straight back :) x...

Well done Bee have another great day x

Morning MM have a great day x

Well done on another great day behind you. I am on day 5 today and I can tell you it feels effortless and pain free. So hang on tight because it's about to get a lot easier for you. Have a good day TH x

Well done for your weight results Lynne. We all do that with our eating, sabotage thoughts. The only thing your off day will have affected is ketosis, because we all know any gain will be straight off :) Great loss even with a treat day x

What a wonderful milestone to move the belt inwards, and great that your clothes feel better. Well done it is so deserved. The jeans I am wearing right now are cutting in thanks to the gains but now I look forward to feeling them loosen again :) Shame your night went a little hectic, my...

Oh my, that is incredible well done. Very well deserved and ever so close to the 15s, what a fantastic start to your day Miss Mac x

Morning Chris, isn't it funny that I picked up on that! Nice that it comes through even in just typing :) You're doing so well, are you and wife in ketosis now and not experiencing hunger/cravings now? Have a great day x

Great work Susie you really seem to have cracked this and are in the zone. We have cats too :) have another great day x

Morning sammi have a great day x

Fantastic, you're doing really well and I'm looking forward to the grand unveiling Friday :) I feel human again, gnawing hunger gone, ketostix nice and pink! Thank you for the support x

Haves lovely night Twinkle x

I hope you've had a great day x

I felt that way last night Bee. Today is much better and I'm in ketosis, maybe the cusp of falling into ketosis brings it on. My weigh in is also Saturday, my first :) You're doing well keep going x

Gosh you are doing really well, almost regimented, well done. I'm really looking forward toy water flavourings arriving :) x

I haven't felt as hungry today, and the gnawing hunger pangs/cravings vanished. Iv been curious so I just tested with 6 ketostix lol.. and I'm in! :) x

Thank you. Have just split a strawberry shake and used 400ml water. I usually use 600ml water for all my shakes hot it cold. I will split packs on hungry days from now on :) x

Thanks Chris. That sounds a great idea, can I ask do you add the usual amount if water when making just half? I think I may split my last shake now thanks x

After reading a few threads I have borrowed a WW pedometer and am curious to see how many steps I make daily :) Not as hungry today, aiming to have my last shake around 5pm here's hoping x

Well done sammilou you have done so well. Not long until weigh in and then week 2 how wonderful. Have another great day :) x

Good morning I just found your diary :) You are doing really really well. Have another great day TH x

Good morning :) I am only on day 4 and last night was hanging on by the skin if my teeth but I'm still here thank goodness. You've been doing so well, how are you today? x

You're doing great Chris, have a good day x

Well done getting to day 7 that is fantastic, and best if luck tomorrow for weigh in I really can't wait. You are doing so good x

Fingers crossed for you with the £££ have another good day x

Well done Twinkle you are inspiring. Day 3 week 2 already is wonderful. Enjoy visiting Mum, I know all too well about family feeders too lol x

Oh my that is incredible weightloss well done! Very well deserved, you are doing so well. I watched a Tv programme the other day about foods and it was horrifying. How over the years 'they' have turned food into a mass of man made chemicals and how bread isn't really bread anymore. Makes you...

Also you have inspired me to get a pedometer ASAP x

Morning Susie I just found your diary! Glad you have made one :) You are doing so well. I like your idea of having the first pack as late as you can so there's one for evening, as I find that's when my thoughts turn too. Unfortunately it's not 10am and iv already had a shake lol. Iceland...

Thank you Giggle you're right - positive mental attitude needed :) Have a great day x I ordered 4 Exante water flavourings to help me drink more. I don't like fizzy pops or black tea/coffee so hopefully I will enjoy these, raspberry crush sounds delish x

Hello day 4. I can't help wishing it was day 14 though I know I shouldn't think like that. To climb the same big hill twice in a short space of time feels defeating, but I know that time will pass the same whether I'm on the diet or getting fatter so I may aswell be getting thinner :) Down to...

Thank you all for the support x I was close to chewing my arm off, it was all I could think about for hours. I was even talking myself into caving in and eating. I had a 4th shake and half a fistful of plain lettuce because there's not any meat or eggs in. I guesstimate 23g carbs. I feel so...

You'll get through it Twinkle well done x

Thank you Miss Mac! Day 4 will be the food shop day and I just get this 'oh wow all this variety of food, i must sample everything!' thought when its all put away in the kitchen. If I can get through that then I think I might actually be doing this :) x Wow MosherMum you've had a heck of a...

Hi Twinkle hope you've had a great day :) x
