    Hi everyone, sounds like you're all doing great :) Well I am showing a loss of 3lbs on my scales so I don't think the bars affect my weight loss - I think it's more to do with drinking enough water. Anyway I'm going to go back onto one bar a day cos I lurrrrve them lol!

    6 days late...test negative ????

    My TOTM was 40 days this time and I'd only been on the CD a week and a half too. I did at test which was negative and AF arrived shortly afterwards so try not to worry. From what I understand this is normal on a VLCD and your periods can even stop.

    OMG Lost 2st in 7 weeks!!

    WOW what a fantastic loss!! It's come off so quickly! Which is esp amazing because you "only" had the 2 stone to lose. (normally the heavier you are the quicker it comes off) You should be SO proud of yourself :)

    Fruits of the forest?

    I tried it for the first time yesterday and absolutely loved it!! Had the toffee and walnut today and loved that too, yummy :) I think it's because I have a sweet tooth, a friend is doing the CD and is a savoury person, she hates them both but loves the porridge which I hate!
