Abbz! I'm back too! Lost 2 stone (although I wanted to lose more) for my wedding and have put it all back on again! Well done on restarting and your loss so far! I have some similar pictures, it's weird how you feel really overweight at the time but when you look back you are like damn I was...

skinny Minnie! Hi Abbz, glad to see you are still going, I'm still doing exante and I've been working out a lot 5-7 times a week so have toned up loads and finally getting closer to 13 stone mark, happy to be losing inches rather than numbers as long as something positive is happening...

Hi abbz, Just popping in as I'm still going but not really going anywhere if you know what i mean!still stuck at 13.6 but have finally taken the plunge and booked myself in for loads of fitness classes this week onwards which I've paid for so hoping that will get the weight shifting! You are...

I'll join in! I need goals I've decided! 9lbs for me which will take me to 12 stone 8 which will be 2 stone gone.

I'm still clinging on! I'm still here! I am basically rubbish at staying committed all day long. I've noticed I can stay focussed all day until I cave in at 5pm almost to the minute. Everyday. It's ridiculous. Maybe now I'm aware of it I will be able to counteract it! We shall see. I'm 13.3...

Helloo abbz, Glad to see you are still plugging away! not long til you'll be under that 11 stone mark! I'm still going but am on and off the wagon, keep losing my focus but I'm hanging in there! hope you're having a good week!

week 4 I think. I'm a bit stoppy starty to be honest but I'm still hanging on! Well done for your losses, keep em coming- need them to keep slackers like me motivated!

Well, I havent got down to 12 stone but I haven't gained and have lost 5lbs (after my 2lb gain) and am at 13 stone 3lb so will keep on track.

ah phew, 5lbs off!

keep going, the beginning is the worst but it gets much easier after day 4/5!

Thanks guys, I'm sticking to it and seeing losses on the scales so thats encouraging. Just realised I was at this point same time last week- what a waste of a week! hope I can get down to 13 stone or even better seeing a 12 on the scale by monday would be awesome. Now I just have to get...

Thats great- well done abbz!

the cereal bars I found minging. the others were nice, all in all its nice to have some more choice. for some reason when I ordered their 2 new flavoured shakes they took over a week to come, and were pretty horrid;e I have to say, mango and passionfruit and forest fruits. shudder. I put on...

well done for keeping on going abbz! I'm glad you're still here, inspiring me to keep on! hope your weigh in goes well on thurs!

I put on 2lbs due to eating, see my diary for full gory details! hmmm…must have got complacent, ho hum. well done to all the monday weighers! ignore me! I will be back on losing form joining you shortly!

I fell off the wagon spectacularly everyone! I had a weekend of wedding/bridesmaids/found my wedding dress celebrations and I JUST CRACKED. I basically wanted food desperately, ate it, didnt feel too bad so carried on and thought bugger it, in for a penny in for a pound, I'll stop in 24 hours/...

day 10 well today was my first proper day on exante after transitioning from lipotrim. i have to say the products are way nicer, although I'm not sure I'll be ordering the pasta carbonara again! it kind of helps having some more normalish food somehow, makes it a little easier maybe. I was...

Day 8 Well, it was a good weigh in! 16lbs gone which is bonkers really. Its pretty much all water weight but I would say I am starting to feel it a little, maybe tum is a bit smaller, and maybe some of my chin(s)! Last night, well in the day we had a lunch at a friends house and it was...

Thanks lady! must not get complacent now!

Thanks Roxi, hope your first day is going well! Good luck on you LT journey! Did you lose much before? the last two days I coped well by having them spaced out in the day as you suggested so thanks for that! I've lot 16lbs my first week on Lipotrim but what with one thing and another...

woah! 16lbs gone! hope I can keep the weight losses up as I've decided to move to exante! good kick start up the bum! well done on your losses this week monday weighers!

Yes! i definitely want to feel comfortable in my own skin. I'm not sure but I think it comes from knowing you are doing the best for yourself and your body, obviously putting rubbish in it or not exercising are not the best. Well done on getting yourself off blood pressure tabs- thats a real...

Thank you, yes lets do it together! I'm feeling very motivated as I went wedding dress shopping today! Another day 100%, keep them coming xx

Hi Jenny My Son is 4 months! You seem to have done really well on your journey so far and that's always inspiring when you are at the beginning. I took some inspiration from your signature and started my own squat and sit up challenge- thank you!

good luck allanah I'm sure you will be successful if you want to be! It might be worth researching the food at the place you will be staying in USA as it can be notoriously hard to get healthy food out there at resort type places! My friend went recently and my sister in law also lives out...

honk for days 1-6 woo!

ugh, typical, I spout a load of righteous rubbish and then I feel like I've somehow achieved something. I didnt eat but I was incredibly tempted earlier. I'm going to keep my mouth firmly shut from now on and just keep my head down and get on with it!

Day 5: It's friday and tomorrow it's the weekend, am going wedding dress shopping tomorrow and would have like to have had some champagne but will forgo it obvs! Supposed to be having lunch with my family at a friends on sunday but have already told her I am on this diet so will not be eating...

Losing weight will definitely give you more confidence! When I was 16 I was overweight and at 6th form college. I wore massive fleeces and clothes my (overweight) grandma had given me and didn't talk to anyone, I just felt like a non person, being around people was completely painful for me. In...

I'm a restarter too, on day 5, not sure how I will cope on the weekend but I'm sure I will stay strong and 100%! good luck to any one weighing in!

be strong in the face great cake adversity! :)

DAY 4: I thought I was doing really well this morning, I felt really energetic depsite the baby getting me up 3.30!! but I over did the cafe coffee without having had my first shake and ended up feeling really really sick again. I did two 35 minute walks, some sit ups and other exercises all on...

It's funny how you look back at pictures before you were very overweight and think "I look alright there! I'd kill to look like that again!" But at the time when you actually are that weight you feel dissatisfied with your size! I'm now 4 stone heavier than I normally am and not sure I'm going...

Hey Abbz, just wanted to say I have found your diary interesting to read and it has made me want to commit to writing my own this time (I didn't do it right first time around) but I can see it is a useful tool, must be nice to look back to the start and see how far you've come! It is also...

Day 3: Feel much better today, felt so sick yesterday! Had a major challenge this evening which was to cook for the family- without tasting or eating any of it! Managed to make a chilli which actually tasted nice! (apparently!) Was so hard not to have even the smallest bite of a carrot, love...

Here is my diary, starting on day 2 but wil fill in day 1. am going to upload weekly pictures to keep me motivated! Day 1: Did not get to the pharmacy until 12.30 so did not start my first shake until 1.30pm. Decided to have them in half packs, can't remember if this is ok but hope it is...

Hello all, I'm new here, well sort of! I used Lipotrim and Minimins 6 years ago when I'd put on lots of weight after having my daughter (who is now 8!). I successfully went from 16 stone down to 10 stone 5 but had problems keeping the weight off. I had my gallbladder removed in 2009 after...
