Picked the dress up tonight. I haven't lost anymore weight just hoovering at same!! Fingers crossed it fits on the day!!

Hey guys. Sorry been awful logging on as it'll so busy.. things are going great. I'm 4lb of my target but really can't lose any more weight as my dress will be to big. I'm still a chunky monkey but have kinda reached my goal and I'm happy but really want to get to 9.7 st after wedding. I've...

Priya I find when I continued stress about losing weight I don't, but when I switched off and ate some food but within calories allowed I lost more weight.. I was mostly hungry on just shakes and bars but increasing the calories to around 1000-1500 has worked wonders for me. Then I do have days...

Hey chic what's been happening? You sprained your wrist.. I've not had time to read your posts but will catch up in 3 weeks lol.. so stressful at moment. Your doing amazing. Keep it up x

Hi Andy. I'm also slimming for the big day and it's getting so close:oops: I'm doing similar to you as I need the protein food part to boost my weight lost as it stalls on just shakes. Have you got your suit and bits. My partner is so not bothered. So annoying!! Hope your a better prepared...

Hi Priya Sorry I'm so bad at posting lately. I've started you 5/2 kinda diet but using Cambridge products for now. It's working. I'm losing more weight be eating than I was starving and being hungry all the time! My body was in ketosis as my wee smelt funny but I was always hungry. Now I have a...

Dress fitting was amazing. I need more inches off but she said no more after this as she hasn't time to alter it again and it's lace.. my boobs are disappearing.. she's gotta take maybe 2 inches off my boobs, and 1 more of my waist.. so exciting..!! I hope you lovely ladies are all doing fab...

Just home from work and got my dress fitting later. I'm 10.12 today, what I wanted to be at last fitting but at least I may lose another 4 before wedding to get to 10.7 whoop woo!! Wish me luck for dress fitting!! Sorry I'm not on much, just way to busy at moment..x

Thanks.. I would love to be 10.7 for wedding but I can't see it. I'll be happy with what I am but I want to continue it and get down to 9.7. I must admit I have been doing more the 5/2 diet but using Cambridge products/chicken/ham/eggs and a little lettuce to brighten it up!! Key lime shake...

Hi Guys. So I'm finally in the 10's.. it's like 10.13.5 but I'm there. I've been so busy with work and wedding stuff haven't had chance to get on here this weekzz hope everyone is ok..x

Day 22. Not impressed as I only lost 3lbs this weeks. Still in the 11's. It feels like I'm never gona get into the 10's.

You ok Priya?? Your not usually this quite, hope your ok xx

Day 21 Been a strange week. Feelings of up and down. I've been so good all week so I'm really wanting 4-5lbs weight loss tomorrow. I've stayed off the scales as I want to see if it helps me not weighing every day. Fingers crossed for tomorrow. I'm always hungry. I don't get it as ketosis is...

Hi Ruby shoes. I like your name and my shoes are red coloured for the wedding.. It's great to have another bride to share it with. Sounds like your doing well losing weight. I would love a personal trainer but unless they are gona hit me with a whip I don't think it'd help haha. It's hard...

Them smell of toast would know anyone over the edge. It's crazy your dreaming of toast, must of been on your mind before bed. It's good you've got the hypnosis to keep you focused. I've found this week has had ups and downs. I do feel hungry quite a lot. I'm thinking I might have 4 products...

Hi Minnie. Hope your ok. Your doing well. It's a hard diet to stick to. I have my up days and down days. I've had a hard week at work and nearly broke last night but I stuck with it. I'm hoping to be in the 10's tomorrow. We are all here for support and it will soon be your first WI. Good...

Morning Priya. Hope the WI this morning goes well for you x

Hey Kate. It was really good.m thanks. My dress is amazing and I can't wait to wear it. I'm so excited. How you finding the diet x

So Day 20.. 20 is a nice number. Really hoping for a good weight loss this week as have been so good and think I deserve to see the 10's.. roll on Saturday

Thanks Pyria. It's ok, I've got a berry one and that'll do. I add it to sparkling water. You'd think they would all have access to the same products.

Hey. I told my consultant when I had my blip. She understands it's hard but has been supportive. I've been so good since, however I do have skimmed milk in my coffee most days. Life's too short and I can't drink it black and I've a lot in at work so need the caffeine!! Don't worry your back on...

Look you've started it and your well under way and that's the main thing. If you hadn't of stared when you did you'd be still 1 stone heavier and on day 1. Really I should of started last year as I knew I was getting married but I like food and drinking alcohol to much. But I started and that's...

It's the only shake that doesn't smell powdery if that makes sense. I nearly didn't try it and was returning to CC when I though just try it.. I can't stomach the flavoured chocolate, banana, strawberry shakes. My CC doesn't have toffee or walnut or the watermelon water flavourings. I like...

Hi Minne and welcome to the group. The diet is hard and without the support of this group I don't think I would have got to day 19.. I am looking forward to day 50 as I will be getting married. My only advice is to try very hard not to cheat as it will throw you off track and slow things down...

Priya you posts do make me smile at times. I can just picture you wriggling and jumping around and laying on the bed trying to squeeze into them size 10's. It's like something i'd be doing lol.. we women are crazy as frogs sometimes haha.. Right, you gotta think smaller. I know we want to wake...

Well done on the weight loss chic. Your doing well. 5.5lbs is great as you didn't think you'd lose this week. I'm glad hypnotherapy is working for you and keeping you in the zone :) I would love 5lbs this week. I'm feeling in a better place too. Was in a bad way about 2 days ago, talking...

Day 19. Think I'm addicted to key lime pie shakes. I love them. I don't get why I'm so hungry on this diet and others are full up. The first week, I could only stomach 2 shakes but now I have 3 shakes or 2 shakes and a bar. I am always hungry. Is it because I'm not drinking enough water. I...

Thanks I'm really excited about it. I don't think the dress alternations lady wants me to lose more as she'll need to adjust it again but we'll see. Ideally i want another 7-10 lbs off before wedding. Then another stone after wedding.

Woohoo had my dress fitting and need inches off it all over :) yayyyy

Ah can the consultant weigh you on Friday. Stick with it as your doing great and we are going to have a good weight loss this week. I can feel it :)

I'm the same.. I'm on shakes only with the odd bar but I'm trying afew days with the bars to see if the weight loss is any better. I thought I'd post 1lb every day at least. Wishful thinking. I'm the exact same as you, but I have my dress fitting in 30mins so it's kinda keeping me on track...

Hi Priya Don't eat!! If you do have some protein :) chicken or something and not a lot. Sorry I've been really busy with work today. Just catching up now on lunch. You can do this, your a strong woman.. I can't reply much a minute as have to go back in. Stick with it to Saturday x

Day 18 Well today is going much better. I'm feeling pretty positive and got my dress fitting later :) I've had my morning shake and I'm having my lunchtime shake now. I've had a double espresso lol (hope they are allowed on this diet) Onwards and upwards. Here's hoping for a good weight...

I think that sounds really good. I might give it a go after my shakes are finished this week as I'm not sure I can be bothered with shakes for 2-3lbs weight loss each week. I was hoping to have lost at least 10-12lbs but I have only lost 7lbs so far which is depressing. I will weigh tomorrow...

Thanks Priya, great advice. I guess we are all struggling together. I like that there is a few of us in the group too now. With the 5:2 or 4/3, how many calories do you have the main 5/4 days, just 500 then nothing the other 2/3?

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Could even do the 5/2 but with protein based foods. I just can't see me sticking with this unless I have a massive loss this week like 7lbs. Ah well see, I have about 30 products to get through before I do anything else.

My partner has just weighed himself and he's lost 8 lbs and he's cheated on it.. arrgghh

Morning chic. Yeah it's hard when scales don't move but also keeps you on track. I find that if I don't lose although I'm mad as I tried hard, I know I have to stick with it. See how tomorrow goes for you. You never know or even wait till next Tuesday if you rather your 2 week weigh in. I might...

Day 17 Did sleep well at all last night. Gona be a long day. I'm hungry to a lot of the time. I thought ketosis stopped the hunger. My belly grumbles a lot. Maybe I didn't drink enough water yday. I'm sure I had 3 litres at least. Probably had closer to 4.5/5. Anyway, today is another day...

Yeah maybe if I'm stuck in last 2 weeks I'll eat eggs haha. So Day 16 is over. Think I'm done well today. I have had 3 key lime shakes with crushed ice today and 3 coffees with a tiny bit of skimmed milk to colour it. Bring on day 17

Afew people have later weigh ins. I'd be about 4lbs heavier in the evening I think. I'm hoping for 4lbs weight loss between today and tues haha

Well done. 3lb is good. do you weigh yourself in the morning? Might be worth it as it's suppose to be your true weight

Good luck with the weigh in. Tried a peanut bar, they are yum. Gona stick to shakes next 3 days if I can as you might be right about the bars.

Day 16 Woke up hungry. I feel hungry more often than I did in the first week. My tummy is rumbling for about 2 hours. Scales haven't budged so it's gona be another one of them days. I have dropped a tiny % of body fat. My body fat is so high, almost half of me is fat! I'm gona go a long walk...

Thanks chic, I would like to ideally get to 9st but I would settle for 10st. I know I won't be 10st for wedding but if I lose another 11lbs it should make a difference. To be on target and get to 10st I'd need to lose 4-5 lbs each week which I can't see happening. I seem to have the lowest...

I might give that 5/2 a try after the wedding. Sounds like my kind of diet. I do hate counting calories but needs must do if I want to be slimmer and healthier.

Thanks chic. I've printed off the chart count down. You sound like a busy lady. it's great to get complaintments about age and when you lose more weight they will keep coming. I've got a old face so people never guess me as younger. It's nice to spoil yourself. Hope your hair turns out...

Ah Priya the bottle and the certificate is lovely. Don't think my consultant gives them out. It's nice to have them to keep track to. You really are doing so well. next week aim for 2lbs incase then if you get 4-5 off it'll be amazing but if you get 2 you'll still be on track. I'm not on any...

Hope your WI goes well tomorrow

Woo, hope they don't make difference as I just ordered 9 today.. :rolleyes:

Don't you like the bars. Yeah it's this weather I blame, body doesn't know what season it is weatehrbto store fat for winter or get rid of it for summer lol

My consultant has been with my favourite shakes key lime pie. She said she can notice a weight loss but I think she's just being supportive. Anyway I'm actually looking forward to my key lime pie shake.. feeling a bit more positive too. Got a peanut bar for my tea. fingers crossed it's not...

Ah well done Priya, if it was me I'd be sitting with so much carbs/crying. Your a good example to us all x

I might do the 5/2 also. What is it? I've heard people on about it before? Must look into it.

Woo that's brilliant you lost another 5lbs. That's so good considering how awful you felt during the week. 17inches is great too. Try to keep yourself busy today and tomorrow and if you feel like breaking come on here for a chat and a pint of water xx

Thanks Kab9. I'm trying. Just been for a 5 mile walk and it nearly killed me lol.. I'm so unfit. People can be so judgemental and false. She sounds like a right so and so. I think people will think "why didn't I try to lose weight before the wedding" but I have tried and tbh life is so short...

Ah my consultant is so lovely. I messaged her and she's coming to see me at 12 today. She was suppose to come Monday but she wants to keep me on track and is bringing my favour shakes and bars..

So things are going to go 2 ways for me. 1) I give up due to my shocking poor results so far and I just put the weight back on in afew days again OR 2) suck up my depressing weight loss so far and try harder. I'm gona go for option 2.. I got myself in this situation only I can get myself out...

Just making a glass of sparkling water with some flavouring. I put the spoon in my mouth with a little powder on it and it actually tastes like a sweet in my mouth. Was fizzy (not lovely tasting) but it cheered me up a little. It's the small things gets us through this journey!!

It's so so hard and I myself do feel like throwing the towel in but I know I need to stick with me. It took awhile for my body to get back into ketosis but I know I'm there now so trying to stay in it. Gona have a sparkling water to cheer myself up and maybe a breakfast bar with a cuppa tea...

Ah Priyab, I'm so sorry to hear this. Relationships are hard and family/religion can make it so much harder. Have you friends in Manchester you could meet for a water and chat? Don't stress to much about weight loss, I know I'm saying this and I am stressing. It's not good for us. I tend to be...

I weigh myself in morning as my scales are good and tell me body fat etc.

Day 15 Weigh in.. I'm lay in bed thinking it's not gona be good. Started CD 17th June at 11.11 1st weigh in 11.6 = -5 Blip day after WI = +3lbs back up to 11.9 2nd weigh in 11.4 = -5 but really -2 Total so far 7lbs Disappointed Would like to lose 4/5 and be in 10's before dress fitting next...

What time do you get weighed x

Hi LucyAnn I read your post on another thread so came to look at your diary. Last night was a blip and I've had one to. You've had a good loss so far and I'm sure we all are feeling abit down am this week. Bless SummerChic for keeping our spirits up :) I also like you had a blip but got...

Ah right lol.. I'm so thick all over haha. Are you nervous about weigh in tomorrow? Day 15 for us tomorrow

Ah I feel the same as you. Think it's just a hard week this week. Like I've a dress to get into and still can't stay motivated. We can do it. How do you mean charts/plaques/jars??

Hiya Chic. I'm gona order some stevia flavourings now. I went to holland and Barrett but they didn't have any. It's funny how one person loves something and the other hates it. I haven't tried the ready made shakes or any of the meals. I'm gona stick to key lime pie shakes and bars. Need to do...

Thanks Priya..Think afew of us are struggling this week. I think I feel like you did , in as if I hadn't of cheated I'd be closer to the finish line and I don't think the scales will have moved much tomorrow :(

Well been to dentist to get the teeth whiten and it's costing me a fortune. I need 3 fillings replaced first. I'm on white foods from now. Hope I can stick with it as I'm starting to get that giving up feeling

Day 14 Yesterday felt very bloated. Really hoping for to lose 5lbs by Tuesday (wishful thinking) before dress fitting. My weigh in is tomorrow. Hope everyone's day goes well.

Day 13, Well it's not looking like I'll have a great weight loss this saturday but I'm sticking with it. My dress fitting is next week so I am staying motivated for that. Even if I could just get to below 11st for that would be ace but I doubt it. I've an appointment at dentist tomorrow for...

Great weight loss Kab. It takes awhile to notice. I don't notice yet but I feel less bloated and tops definitely fit better.. keep it up

It's lovely to try smaller sizes and them fit. Next week they will fit better. That's brilliant size 16 at primark. Is the drops all coloured, I'm assuming water melon is pinkish? I seen a white chocolate drop but that doesn't sound nice in water lol.. You are great at experimenting with the...

Woo that's great, I think the 15lbs is a more truer loss as I go by my morning weight. I've been looking the the flavour drops and I'm wondering could I add them to sparkling water?? The berry one I got is very pink and I'm getting my teeth whitened for the wedding next week so just wondering...

Woo brilliant weight loss. Well done Obs!! I can't wait till I lose 15lbs :) How are you finding the diet?

Good morning. Ah don't beat yourself up girl. It was a slip of the hands to the mouth. I cheated and felt the exact same. Had a buggiest Indian curry with 10,000 carbs and next day I felt like you. I was so disappointed in myself. But it was a new day. I'm allowed a hiccup but no more. Also I...

Day 12. Woke up hungry. I think I preferred it when the shakes made me gag and I was put off food lol. Anyway onwards and upwards. I have my dress fitting next week so I'm determined to have 5lbs off at least. I'm aiming high. Gona add in some walking I think and skipping. I'm gona try hold...

Well done, that's an ace weight loss. Next week you might be at a stone and like Summerchic says 1 day and week at a time.. Keep it up x

Woo amazing weigh loss Chic. Well done you. You'll defo hit a stone next week. Evening weigh in sucks but it's better to as when you say 14,11 you probably are 14 7 in the morning so that would be a stone in 2 weeks.. What are the tetras and where do you get your stevia flavourings?

Hi Chris. I'm on day 11 too. I cheated once and have been so hungry since so my advice is don't cheat :) Have you something exciting your are losing weight for or just fed up. I'm abit of both. Getting married and just overweight and fed up with clothes not fitting or looking nice. You can...

We'll get there.. one day at a time :)

New underwear rocks :) and 2 pairs of nice jeans, 5 tops and maybe a skirt/dress and your wardrobe is complete :) bring it on!!

I swear by aloe vera cranberry juice. It's tastes awful but I close my eyes and pretend it's medicine lol Ah it's hard for men when they see us crazy with dieting and then our ups and downs. My bloke puts up with all sorts of emotions from me. Like when I cheated the last day I really blamed...

Day 11. Just had my cappuccino breakfast shake. I've decided to change all my shakes to cappuccino and have 2 shakes and a bar as my 3 products. I also really like the water flavourings as it kinda give me another test, which was lovely. I added the flavouring to sparkling water and it...

I've suffered really bad with it before and not been able to get out of bed. It's horrid.. drinking lots of water flushes it out too x

Good luck today Chic. I'm excited to hear about your weight loss..x I'm gona try make ice cubes with the water flavouring today as the shakes and me just don't get on lol.. I'm gona swap all my favoured shakes to cappuccino and just think of it as 2 coffees and a bar each day x

Hi Priya. Sorry to hear your so poorly. It's awful when you body starts to start do. I'm not sure if your ever tried Aloe Vera juice, the cranberry one. You take around 60ml shot and it really help with all the organs. You can get from holland and Barrett. I take it (my consultant said I could)...

Oh good luck for your way in. I'm on Day 10 and caved yesterday and ready to eat my fingers off now. Never been so hungry whilst on this diet as today. That's what I get for cheating Early to bed tonight I think x

Yeah it's nice but he's allowed more calories than me and he'll probably lose weight so much faster and easier. Chic- I tried frozen banana and it's not for me but worth a try. I'm so hungry today. Trying so hard not to cave!!! Wonder how much water flavouring I'm allowed each day.

Hi Kelly. I'm getting married in afew weeks also. Hope your weigh in went well and your doing ok

Hi Kab9 Hope your weigh in goes well. x

Day 10. So I fell off track yesterday but got back on it this morning after feeling awful. Today I've been very hungry (after I stuffed my face with Indian yesterday) and have already drank about 3 litres of water. On a plus I have added water flavourings and bars to my life and oh boy...

Thanks Chic. Sounds like you are doing amazingly and I like all the tweaking of products. I might get try the ice lollies. The answer to your question if I was full and felt horrible after eating didn't happen till this morning. It has made me very hungry today but I'm determined to stay on...

Hi Chic. My weigh in went well on Saturday, I lost nearly 6lbs, but then I caved yesterday and had a curry with my partner. I'm so disappointed and annoyed at myself. I've put a good 2-3lbs back on but I feel gutted that I gave in so easily after such a hard week.. I've got some bars from my...

Hi Priyab. I started reading your diary last night but need to see were your up to again. So you've started it again. My weigh in day is Saturday too. Today is DAY 4. I do find the shakes hard to stomach,l but would like to try do it for at least 1 week if I can. Saturday weigh in is only 3...

Hey Summerchic.. is your first weigh in tomorrow. Good luck with it x

Thanks Priyab and Summerchic. It's the shakes, the thought of them. I messaged my consultant and she said to have 2 if I can and then have another 200cals of protein if I can't stomach 3. Do you think this will slow the weight loss eating solids?

Day 3 Thanks everyone. It's nice to have the support doing this diet. Yesterday I was sick immediately after having a shake. I think it's the thought of the shakes makes me gag!! I tried them with ice which helps a little. I'm trying to do only shakes as my consultant said the weight should...

Thanks Obs. I'm hoping if I start the shakes earlier in the morning I'll get through 3 a day. I'm will defo give the ice a try today. So Day 2. It's quite exciting. I had a sneaky peek on the scales this morning and lost 2lb in just 1 day. A pint of water, then breakfast shake.

Hello everyone. I've read afew posts but haven't posted here before. I had thought about trying exante diet but the shakes are very sweet and a CD consultant lives right near me so decided to start CD today. This morning was fine, drank lots of water, had a vanilla shake around lunch time and...

Hi. I just ordered my shakes today. Hoping to start in next few days and hopefully share the journey together with everyone

Hi.. I'm in the 11's. Started wed past and weighed in at 11st 10lb :( My aim is to get in the 9's :)

Hi All.. so I officially started my slimming world journey last night and attended meeting, got weighed/etc. I was heavier than expected as I usually weigh in morning :( so i have 1st 10lb to lose to get to 10st but i want an extra 3-4lbs to be under 10 and maintain it.. Think i'd be delighted...

Hi.. I'm just starting SW, tried it before but struggled getting my head around it. You seem to be doing really well. I'm interested to know what you do with your porridge oats when soaked in mullerlight? Do u leave it in fridge overnight. Also whats your free bbq sauce? I'm also starting couch...

Hi Ava.. At my hen party i had lost a stone on LT, i struggled not to drink/eat with the girls! And tbh i dont get enough fun girly wknds anymore so yes i blew it. I couldnt start LT after it and had about 3 weeks eating healthy ish and drinking (not healthy Bulmers & Wine) but I only put back...

I think your right to re-feed as how often do we get away?? Enjoy it :) have u had any blips on the TFR diet and what was it if u did. Thanks for the advice about the pharmacy and bmi- that might come in handy. I'm hungry today to :(

Also, i hide and carry my weight well x had a zip up hoody on so she didnt see the rolls underneath. Next week i'll flash them haha

Its hard trying to hide it. Just try and see how it goes. Thats my plan for this wknd. Have u tried making the mousse and making it look like your eating yoghurts. Thats a idea i just thought off :) did i tell u about gorgeous skinny girl who served me the last day. I was so excited with my...

Love it x

Is today Day 10? God 10days without a crumb. Feeling bored, my belly rumbling probably for water or shake. Starting to feel bored.. Shake it off girl and get ur lazy ass up and go make a shake lol

Suppose we all different shapes/sizes or it would be boring :) i remember feeling like you and i crave that more than food.. I want to look on mirror and think you go girl :) i love looking hot who doesnt. You'll hav to post a pic of u before u go out on sat night. Cant wait to see the mini.. x

Its hard hiding it. People be like black coffee, you always like milky coffee!! I'v had to pretend i was out for lunch with my friend and had a big lunch so not hungry. How long you staying at your mums goose? You could have soup and roll but sneakily hide the roll by breaking it off or same...

Thats brilliant.. Well done girl. I cant wait to start exercising but will let the shakes do their magic for now :)

Hi Roxie. Today is another day. Its so hard but u can do it. What helps me is, I throw leftovers out straight away or put them in fridge. I still tend to lick my finger after poking it in something but i'm gradually stopping that. Even given my baby calpol and if it run on finger i'd lick it...

Hows today going for u Roxie x

I make them with 240mls, i put 3/4's spoon of coffee and down it..Chocolate, with cold peppermint tea and down them. The strawberry yuck, trying to think of an idea to jazz it up! Its the smell of them!! I dont like normal milkshakes. Well done with the weight loss, 11lbs is brilliant.. Wish...

I wish lol.. I'm an apple shape, so if you kicked me over i'd roll haha.. The dress i'm wearing this wknd is a 14 and tight, too tight :( i'm hoping its cold out and i can cover up with a cardi or small jacket.. Might get away with it then! Its awful when u feel disgusted at your own body!! I...

Thanks goose.. I'll see how i get on this wknd. I think its the social aspect that gets me. Also without this group i wouldnt of lasted this long x

Your tiny in that little black dress. You look like a size 8-10, how much more did you want to lose. Its funny how people can weigh same but be totally different sizes. I'm 10st 11 now and probably a size 14-16 but carrying alot of fat. well done girl x

That does sound really good. LT is £46 in my pharmacy! Must have alook at website but i think i'v set myself an easier target for LT. If i lose another 10lb i'm going to do SW plan and excerise but hey i might change my mind again at that stage. I know i had good weight loss but i suffer bad...

Ah stay in bed :) i'm up about 4 times in night wee'ing!! Annoying as baby slept through (typical) so u gona mix cambridge and LT? How much is cambridge a week. LT is quite expensive for what it is.

Photos are so inspiring arent they. When i feel down i always look through them and it gives me more will power. I'm gona join gym and try to do some classes or something and weights to tone up. Tbh if i lost another 10lbs i'd be more than happy to go the gym/ healthy eating route for last 9lbs...

Thanks goose! I'll be drunk on the stuff haha x Hows you & baby today?

I think i'll get around it but might have small blip. Gona go with throat infection. I'm prepared for it thou if it happens! Can i drink sparkling water on LT? I was hoping to blag that as vodka & lemonade. Keelykins- the hen was brought forward a couple of wks and tbh if i dont just start and...

Woo, thats great.. Thats 2stone in 2 weeks!! Amazing!! Well done x

Fingers crossed for u :) x

When you look at it like that, its 1/3 off what i want to lose (i think)..I'm 38 packets away from my goal..x

Hiya.. I'v just completed week 1.. 3 strawberries shakes a day- have you a special way of making them as i hate the strawberry ones x

Maybe you've lost more and the scales are accurate :) Wardrobe clearing feels great.. Before you know it your BF will be back.

Well done, its great to get in smaller clothes! Keep it up x

Wooo, your photos are amazing.. Your figure is stunning! Did you exercise much before when on diet. I'm worried I'll end up with a saggy belly if i lose to fast x

Thanks everyone.. I'm happy with it. I just wish i started this 3 weeks ago. No-one knows I'm doing LT and I've my friends hen party this wknd and we are booked into hotel. How am i gona avoid drinking and eating. I could say antibiotics for drinking but how to explain not eating. I'm thinking...

DAY 8 and 1st weigh in. Lost 9.5lbs, so close to 10lbs but i'm happy with that. Also, think my headaches are related to caffeine withdrawal so i'm forcing myself black coffee. Cant stand black tea. And having peppermint tea too.. Hopefully that will get a grip on those.!!

1st weigh in and DAY 8- had my weigh in and i lost 9.5lbs... Ah so close to 10lbs but i'm happy. My jeans and tops look much better.. Goodluck everyone for weigh in x

Morning all. I'm on day 7. Got my first weigh in tomorrow. Excited and feeling positive today.. :) :)

Day 7- woke up a little tired/niggling headache but almost gone! Doesnt help that my baby has been poorly all week and side effects of LT. On a positive I feel happier. Think i'm excited about my first weigh in tomorrow. I'd love 10lbs off.

Yeah would be great to lose 8-14lbs every week but you probably need to have it to keep that up. Like on that biggest loser show, amazes me. My plan is to lose initial weight on LT then follow SW plan. It does work but at minute i have no self control and need a kick start. Ah we'll see how it...

Hi goose. Well done on your weight loss! Your right LT and babies dont go well! Its exhausting! I'v a baby who needs less sleep than me!! My first weigh in is tomorrow. Would love 10lbs off.

Lipo brain. Tired and not making sense!! I mean he's alot to lose if he cheats. Was trying to say your not as big ad you were when you met but still alot to lose.. I had my final mint choc shake and i'm off to bed shortly.. Speak soon :)

Hope that part about the lot to lose sounds right haha.. I mean its his lost if he cheats and he has alot to lose even if your smaller than u were xx

He sounds really interested in you, i could never start a relationship with a person who didnt eat or drink normal stufff so he's into u.. Dont worry or think about it too much. He asked u to be his girlfriend before he left remember. He's probably not got as much as a lady to lose now as you'v...

Are you refeeding when he gets back or you waiting till your birthday? Can he contact you much when he's away? Do u Skype? Its free :)

U'll get in it, stay positive i'm much better the last few hours thanks, still got mild headache which is crap! I'v had 4ltrs of water today already. Cant wait to get weighed. My period due to so hope it doesnt affect my loss.

Thanks. The last few hours i'm much better (apart from sore throat which i can live with). Headache is milder manageable for now. Hate taking all the painkillers but least i havent caved. I get weighed on monday. Think i'll lose about 6-7lbs. Hoping for about 10lbs

Ah rubbish.. Fingers crossed for a good loss next week. Is this your 1st wk staying the same? Frustrating when them scales dont move :( keep up the good work and just think of your dress!

Thanks guys, think without this forum i'd have packed it in yesterday. I love the photos and stories and support everyone gives :) So today is Day 6.. I still cant get rid of headache. I'v had to take loads of painkillers and hoping that doesnt mess up my ketosis. I was so sick yesterday i only...

I'm going down hill.. Headache wont go and i've drank 1.75lt if water already and 1 shake. Think i'm going to be sick? Can we take painkillers anyone know? Cant face a shake as i'll throw it up :(

So Day 5.. Niggling headache all night. I'm drinking at least 3.5-4lts of water a day. Maybe need more coffee. Still got headache :( not hungry thou :) anyway tried on the dress I had for hen party I wanted to were and from Monday to today there is a noticeable difference and only starting day 5...

Hiya. So day 4 is nearly over for me. Wasnt hungry today but do miss chewing. Still struggling with cooking for the family :( Hows everyone getting on?

Hi Ava. Didnt cave yet. I'm not hungry either but feel like I need a snack/something to chew. I didnt get any of the flap jack things as thought if i chew on them i'll want more. My friend has decided to bring her hen party forward and planning it the wknd after this. Arrrggghhh I'm not sure...

Hi Jules. Went to bed early last night. Think today will be a struggle for me! I'm on day 4. I feel wrecked but didnt get much sleep last night with rumbling belly and going for wee's all night. I kinda feel down and the day has only begun!! Sounds like ur over the hump again and its a great...

Thank Ava. I've looked through some photos on the forum and cant believe the results.. Think an early night might help, i for-see alot of early nights coming my way x

Well done, 9lbs in 2 weeks is still good. I'm thinking I'll have similar weight loss to this. When I read posts where people lose 17lbs in a week I think thats amazing. We'll get there slowly :) I had my first chocolate shake made with cold peppermint tea and a little ice and its so much...

Thanks guys! I'm struggling tonight. Hope i make it through tomorrow.. :(

Day 3... Dragging!! I'm not in ketosis yet as still hungry and my mouth feels just dry. Got my 1.75lt bottle of water next to me. I'm struggling cooking for family. I've put my fingers in my mouth to lick the whatever off. Suppose this diet will teach me not to pick as I cook.. Anyway, I'll...
