Well done on the facebook thing. I actually deleted my whole account just after christmas. I agree its soul destroying, who cares about people you went to school with? Or worked with for about six months ten years ago? My problem was that I was suspicious with what facebook were doing with my...

Good luck with the weight loss. Think of us all cheering you on when the going gets tough x

Hi Jim! Thanks for the support! No connection to the army im afraid, but I do literally live opposite the Barracks so see the soldiers running around the playing field daily - always a treat! Weighed in this morning 10.6 so another loss, although its leading up to my *star* week and i usually...

Im starting a diary but I am notoriously bad at keeping diarys....but here goes..... This is my second time doing Atkins, last time was around June last year, I gave it up as I fell pregnant but that did not happen in the end, hubby asked me not to carry on with it as he reckoned Atkins made...

Hi gang, Can you tell me if i fry some bacon off (already removed the fat) can i fry an egg off in the juices in the pan? Or do i have to count as syns? Thanks

Thanks gotosleep .... Needed someone to kick me up the bum either way!

Hi, I was wondering wether to join online or go to class, can anyone tell me if I go to class do I still get online access to look up syns and track my food? Also, looking around the web, alot of people say to do it online is very expensive and not worth it. Can anyone give their opinion...

Why would you want to do pure induction for 14 straight weeks. Is this healthy?

Hi suepass, I always read your posts with interest as we started on then same week. I also stalled. On week two I sts, next week I put on a pound and then sts for a week.I was at the end of my tether. for me I realised I was not eating enough veg, so I upped that and lowered my fat intake...

Cheers kat1e. This is actually worse than an actual hangover. been on the sofa all day but eating greasy burgers for comfort.

Thanks for all your help with the cokes x

:)Oh and this was between 7 and 10 last night

I weighed on two pounds heavier this morning and feel like poo. Yep back on the wagon i am. Considered throwing in the towel but if this is how i feel when i eat sugar id rather have low carb anyday!

Hi gang, First time in 5 and half weeks i jumped off the wagon with both feet. I had 2 bags beef hula hoops two magnums and six digestives and also two small glasses of wine. Today i feel awful but my ketostixs are still positive this afternoon. Is this possible?

I would lay money on it that youve gained muscle from your excersise

I put on a pound on my second week but thats irrelevant to my energy levels. Ive never known anything like it! I had a sleepless night on monday....i was so awake. Next day i was expecting to be tired and snappy. But i tidied the house top to bottom. I feel like ive woken up. I also have not...

Thanks for your help everyone ... im gonna cut out the nuts this week x

Forgott to add i drink gallons of water too so its not that :(

Hi all im a lurker and have been here for two weeks. In the first week i lost 8 lbs but this week i seem to have put on one and a half. I have not eaten cheese tomatoes or even tea or milk and ive never eaten any atkins products. Im normally at around 25 carbs a day or under. I have bacon and...

The people who 'dont get it' are missing the point: this is NOT a diet book but a tool to use for people that binge eat. Diets do not work in the long term. By using the techniques in this book I can control my obsessive behaviour around food. I past the point of dieting. I don't care about my...

Yesterday started off well. I woke up, had my galette. Then went on a drivivng lesson. Come back, hubby and kids wanted a fry up so I cooked them, had some turkey bacon and a fried egg but turkey bacon was off so I didn't eat it. My daughter left a sausage which I ate, then continued on a carb...

Cheers peeps have not given in. Grr

Sorry to hijack but I'm really annoyed. I am on day 4 of attack and felt I was doing really well, I have been drinking 4l of water a day with squash which is sugar free. Today I had a quick glace at the nv's....it has 13g of carbs per 100ml and I wqas downing the stuff. Feel a bit disheartened...

Just wanted to post my start weight which was 145.2lbs

It was my first day today as well! I tried the galette which I thought tasted very sour- may have to get some candarel to sweeten. Other than that a good day and looking forward to tommow good luck Pickle x

Todays menu: B. Galette, 2 slices turkey rashers L. Homemade turkey burgers D. Roast chicken with mustard and lean rump steak. S. Vanilla yogurt Can we have horseradish?

Thank you for the replies! Yes I have the oatbran and menus sorted. Just raring to go now. I was just worried about added sugars, foe example sugar is added th ham and also turkey rashers I have have dextrose, is added sugars ok as song as they're in small amounts?

Hi there I'm starting attack tomorrow, and have a few questions: 1. Confused about ham, can I have the sliced ham you have in sandwiches, the kind where there's 10 square slices in a clear package for a pound in the supermarket? 2.can I use frylight to cook my galette? 3. Is there a...

hey i lost 2lbs this week and got slimmer of the week. ive lost 6.5 lbs in two weeks!

Thanks I am rubbish at knowing when to chuck things out!

Could I use this as a healthy extra a? Or does it strictly have to be the ones in the book?

How long do you think a boiled egg would keep in the fridge?

I always thought there was a limit of how many eggs you 'should' eat in a week. Do you think its ok to eat them freely? I eat loads this week!

i have no advice, but happy birthday!!!

hi sorry to bump this but i had this last night and wondered if you had any joy. i looked online but the nearest thing i saw was chicken in batter which was 17.5 points. if anyone else can help i would appreciate. xx

sorry to hijack but how much milk do you have fr 28g, my packet only gives instructions on 45g

I have done ww on and off for the past 5 years and would never go back to it. I would echo the first repliers comment about how you get obsessed with high calorie food. The thing was it taught me that sat night I could have a mental binge and go mad then I could spend the rest of the week...

Cheers. I'm atill trying to get my head round it all, thanks for the help x

Hello. I bought a packet of ryvita dark rye crispbread today with the intention of having it for my lunch. So I go to look in my food optimising book (red day )and see under b choice, page 18, grab and go section, it says 2 ryvita dark rye/original/sesame. Then directly under it it says 4...

I bet any money you like you'll have a big loss next week. Everyones body is different. Don't let it get you down. At the end of the day, they're only numbers on a machine. Its how you feel on the inside that counts xx

Go for it. As you say you'll just end up binging if you don't. And anyways, you can always be extra good the rest of the week. Enjoy x

Hey there, I'm only on day 2 of sw but hubby has suggested fish and chips for dinner. All I've had today is cereal and milk so I'm pretty open on having a green or a red day. I haven't got a huge appetite so I can settle on the fish or the chips - can anyone advise on syn values? Cheers xx
