    Lily *will* be a loser in 2015!!!

    Lily have you tried using the meal planner on S&S website rather than MFP? it tells you if you are still in ketosis and tracks your calories/carbs etc. There are also loads of recipe ideas. I have never eaten so much and been on a VLCD, I just have the packs at home, I'm doing lifestyle.

    Sorry to learn your honeymoon was disappointing, hope you get something sorted I've been to Holmfirth (we pass near it on the way to BIL) but it was a long time ago, so I can't remember much about it, as it was only a "stop off" too see it. isn't it where "Last of The Summer wine" was filmed?

    Going from two to three without eating for five!

    Caz I know more horror stories from ordinary births than caesarean, I know quite a lot of people who had caesareans and the only ones with any type of horror stories are the ones who had been through labour trying for a normal birth first. Fingers crossed that you don't need one, but don't worry...
  22. trisha

    Going from two to three without eating for five!

    Caz a caesarean is nothing to worry about, and it was the best thing ever for me when I had DD, she was breech for most of the times they checked for position. I read about breech births on internet net and it terrified me, then at the hospital (38 week check I think) the stupid midwife said...

    Going from two to three without eating for five!

    When I was pregnant with DD I was extremely tired as well. I'd used up some holiday leave (it was end of the works year April - April and I always used to save days to add to the bank holidays at Easter so I could have more than the 2 bank holiday) and I took to having a nap in the afternoon...

    Yes it's a shame about the aqua fit for pregnant ladies, there were classes when I was pregnant with DD, but in those days you went on maternity leave at 28 weeks and had to go back when baby was 6 months old!

    Great loss Caz, where is the church?
  125. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    So exciting Caz, I've seen some lovely wedding dresses in charity shops very cheap, and look designer.

    Good that you've found out what is wrong with the car and it doesn't sound too expensive,

    Step 1 Sole Source + Paradise lost, regained yadda yadda...back to try again

    Things are good thanks Chels. We have just moved house, been a bit of hassle over summer as we had to get out of ours mid July to stop the chain breaking, luckily we stayed at a friends house that he had been renovating, but living out of boxes is hard it was supposed to be for 3 weeks but...

    It should depend on what his statement says, and how many hours he has

    Good to see you back Chels, I need to get back on track too.

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Just catching up on all your news Caz, been without internet for 10 days :(. You sound well organised at school, your behaviour pupils sounds like the one I work with only he's big and 15, I'd gladly swap. It takes ages for pupils to be statemented and even when they are they often only get a...
  134. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    That's good news, :)
  135. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I know the feeling, I don't want to go back to work, especially as we will hopefully just be moving into new house, I need more time to get it sorted. I'm looking forward to getting back on track diet wise as well, with all hassle with house move just can't focus at the moment, I'm hoping once...
  136. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Looks like you got some bargains Caz
  137. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Looks lovely, I agree with Mel you look tanned already xxxx
  138. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Have a wonderful time xx
  139. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    That's fantastic news Caz, things are really going well for you at the moment, you should buy a lottery ticket
  140. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Have a good holiday Caz
  141. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I agree you are so thoughtful, the cake looks good, just enough for 2
  142. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Local bakers shops normally sell them,
  143. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Watch looks fab I'm sure he will love it. When do you go on holiday? so jealous DH and I desperately need a holiday but with house move and finances doesn't look likely this year. We may get a few days away at half term in October
  144. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Makes a change men can usually park, obviously thinks he owns the car park
  145. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Like the note, but it was probably a woman!!!
  146. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Good idea just to have a trim when trying out a new hairdresser, that's what I always do.
  147. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    You are brave doing her hair colour yourself, I'd be terrified it wouldn't turn out right, only did it once years and years ago, it was meant to last 6 washes, my hair turned orangey and it didn't wash out aaarrgghhh, I said never again and I've always had it done at the hairdressers ever since.
  148. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I agree with you Caz, picking up the bar tab is a bit much, but I suppose it depends on how many guests you have.
  149. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Caz, like Night owl has said, you have just moved in together, and you need time to get used to that, and then save, 23 is very young, I guess you'll both know when the time is right. Weddings don't have to cost the earth either.
  150. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    That's a good attitude Caz and planning the meals is the key, I'm sure the lbs. will start to fall off again, you were doing so well.
  151. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    How is the weight loss going Caz?
  152. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Hi Caz hope everything is okay
  153. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Contracts have been signed, just waiting for both sets of solicitors now date will hopefully be 16th Aug, although we probably won't actually move in until 19th as we want to put in fitted wardrobes etc.
  154. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Glad to hear that you are settled into your new home :) how are you finding living "up North"? No more M6 has got to be a bonus :)
  155. trisha

    Here I go; back again.

    Thanks, got through day 2 okay. Day 3 I'm aiming to have 4 packs today, what do you do on the 30 day shred? Breakfast: Chocolate shake, black tea, half litre water
  156. trisha

    Here I go; back again.

    I got through day 1 ok, and I've even been swimming - trying to get fitness in as well, hope everyone else is doing ok
  157. trisha

    Here I go; back again.

    I would also like to lose a stone or so before going back to school in September, and so I have restarted again today.
  158. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Welcome to the North!! :)
  159. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Awwwww what a lovely letter, it is nice when parents some appreciation for all the hard work you do. Is it your last day today?
  160. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Those 2 days will pass quickly. I know what you mean about boxes not equalling homely - we are surrounded by boxes in our temporary home, it doesn't seem worth unpacking them as hopefully we'll be in our own home in a few weeks. Enjoy your last few days in the midlands,
  161. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Glad you seem to have settled in well. Won't be long before you are there full time.
  162. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I agree, the children are very lucky.
  163. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    You must be getting excited, new home new job and living with Aaron :) when do you officially move in?
  164. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Well done on the loss Caz Just catching up Caz, we've now moved into rented house, so no proper internet our house sale completed today :) but we moved out on Saturday, rather hectic, boxes everywhere, I spent the last 2 evenings cleaning the house, Just waiting for our house purchase to go...
  165. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Half a pound gain isn't too bad, could even be the clothes you are wearing, and since you couldn't control the food you were eating, it's very well done. :)
  166. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    The week will fly by :)
  167. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Fantastic loss Caz, very well done :D
  168. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Food choices seem really good Caz, you are doing really well. Good luck for WI tomorrow - I'm sure you'll have a really good loss
  169. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Afternoon Caz, food choices sound good, I'm sure Aaron will join you on SW once he has used all his packs, it will be so much easier for you both.

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Evening Caz, hope you've had a good day.
  174. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Not yet, our buyers are now on holiday for 2 weeks, but said they would keep in contact with agents, the survey on their house was done on Friday, so all being well things should get moving, but looks like it will be July, which will be good, hopefully it will be when I'm on holiday, which will...
  175. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Hi Caz hope you've had a good day, 26 "get ups" for me :) you can't be that far behind. I really need to start decluttering ready for our downsize, but I don't want to jinx it.
  176. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I like the mugs Caz, I've just given some towels I bought for putting out for viewers when we were selling the house, to DD and her BF, as they only have a couple of towels each. Sounds like you're getting things organised for when you move in together in your new flat.
  177. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    The wedding we are going to in a couple of weeks is going to be different as well. For a start she has knitted all the flowers - bridesmaids bouquets as well as her own (apperently she saw it in a brides magazine a deceided that was what she wanted so she kintted a bridesmaids posy to see what...

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Have a good weekend Caz x
  179. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Looks lovely Caz, and weekend sounds good too. Tomorrow I'm going looking for shoes/hat for nieces wedding in 2 weeks, then on Sunday DD is with us for the day, can't wait to see her, we are hoping to be able to show her the new house.
  180. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I agree sounds like a good food plan, very healthy choices
  181. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Evening Caz, have you had a good day?
  182. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Caz, at school we always count down to the holidays, half terms etc (we actually count the "get ups" - days we have to get up and go to school - so weekends aren't counted - we have 30 get ups to summer holidays.)
  183. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Is it close to your new school?
  184. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Looks lovely Caz, is it furnished?
  185. trisha

    Back again.

    I'm restarting again as well using left over packs, of various VLCD need to place an order tomorrow
  186. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Sounds good, so exciting for you, how many bedrooms?
  187. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I know what you mean about your mojo mine is hiding somewhere, I think it's because I feel unsettled at the moment waiting for house sale to go through, it's at the quiet stage at the moment while solicitors gather all their information etc, and our buyers, buyer is waiting for mortage approval...
  188. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I think sticking to your original plan is the right choice, and you can still make the rented house yours with all your own things. Hope report writing goes well
  189. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    In that case Caz I would try and buy, see if you can get a seperate loan for the deposit.
  190. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    It is so hard for young people to get on the property ladder these days!
  191. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    There is plenty of time Caz, and it is good to get a feel of the area before you buy, maybe rent somewhere a little cheaper than you can afford so that you can put more away to save for your deposit. Does Aaron still live at home? if so could you not move in for a little while. that way you'd be...
  192. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    So exciting Caz, where is the house? maybe they will come down a bit in the price, or maybe someone will lend you the difference.
  193. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Hi Caz, isn't Aaron a sweetie :) I've been swimming this morning and been catching up on housework, I'm now getting stuck into DH's accounts, they have taken a bit of a back seat while we were getting the house ready to sell/viewings etc, so I really need to get them up to date. DH is working...
  194. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    congratulations Caz, year 1 is such a nice age group, you and Aaron will be able to start looking for a place of your own now :)
  195. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Bet Aaron is pleased. Has the head got back to you?
  196. trisha

  201. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    The job sounds interesting, where is it based? The gym sounds good and reasonable as well, I'm hoping to finds a good one when we move

  203. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Tough questions I have you ever done any charity walks etc or organised anything that took quite a bit of your time?

  206. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Good luck with the jobs Caz, are you looking in the Manchester area for a job?
  207. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Well done on the fitness at home, I'm not sure what I'm going to do about a gym when we move all the gyms I've researched on line are almost twice the price I pay now :(
  208. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I'm going to have to find a new gym when we move as the one I go to now is too far away from the new home :( and they don't have any gyms in the area, I think all the local one to the area are quite expensive, I'll have ot check out the pool at the lesiure centre, but know it won't be as good...
  209. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Sorry you didn't get the job Caz, there must be a better one out there for you.

  212. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Good afternoon Caz, are you enjoying your Monday off? three week until half term I think, ours is the last week in may, but it is a very busy time as GCSE's start very soon. Y11s getting excited for their prom, and they are all taking scrap books around getting people to sign them and include...
  213. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    HI Caz hope you are enjoying your weekend
  214. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Hi Caz love the room. It's so nice to hear you talk about your parents the way you do and about how you'll miss them. My dd is in London and I don't see her very often, although we talk and text all the time. How's hte diet going?
  215. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Thats really good Caz, it will look good on the job applications. When is the next interview? Your diet plan sounds good, have you switched from VLDC completely?
  216. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Hi Caz any news on the job?
  217. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Wow fantastic news Caz, the new room and the 2nd interview, good that the head is coming to see you teach, where is the school?
  218. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I agree you look amazing Caz, everything crossed for Wednesday. Did you like the school?
  219. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Interview outfit sounds nice, very smart, and new house sounds promising.
  220. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Have a great weekend Caz, and good luck for the job
  221. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    The diet plan sounds good, and a wise choice I think. Why has your day not been good?
  222. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Dress looks great, Caz, I never wear dresses at school, mainly because we sit next to the pupils we support and as most og the are boys, I just feel more comfortable in trousers. Food choices sound good, I really miss fruit too, it seems so strange not to eat it on VLCD, when on other diets it...
  223. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Caz, first of all, you know that most of the weight "gain" is water. Secondly, lots of people have made valid comments and given advice, but you have to do what feels right for you. VLCD are hard, and it takes a lot of determination to stick to them. You could do VLCD for 5 days then eat...
  224. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Where did you go for your walk Caz? looks lovely.
  225. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Not far Caz, about 17 miles away. Yes it is quiet on here, maybe people are still on holiday. First day back at school :( we broke up on the Tuesday before Easter Caz, so the kids have had 2 weeks, staff had an inset on the Wednesday, so we had a day short of 2 weeks. What is Guild Wars...
  226. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Hi Caz I think that it is a good idea to weigh in once a month, I think I may do the same. We haven't made an official appointment to see the house yet, got a very busy week DH was out yesterday and today I took a friend to see her mum in hospital in Manchester.
  227. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Good evening Caz, hope you've had a good day, I have been out all day, only one day left then back to work :(
  228. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I agree Caz, if you stick to S&S the rest of the time one meal isn't going to make that much difference. We have been out all day, first we went to pick up a chest of drawers I bought off ebay, we then went looking at a house (only form the outside, just noticed it had come up for sale, it's...
  229. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Afternoon Caz good to hear you sounding so positive. Never heard of SML how di they compare in price? off to google them
  230. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    The 2 day diet is simply that diet for 2 days eat normally for 5, that doesn't mean you can gp mad and eat rubbish, but eat sensibly, I may use S&S for the diet days when I switch, but sometime last year Mel posted a like to the "milk diet" which is another version so I may do that. I guess...
  231. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I know exactly how you feel about Slim and Save, I get these feelings all the time, but i know it's the only way I'll lose weight, I have been thinking of switching to the 2/5 diet and I've even bought the book, I think could manage 2 days diet and 5 normal, and I think that this could be the...
  232. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Great news about the gym Caz and well worth it
  233. trisha

    Crazys "No Binging Allowed" Diary...

    Hi Natalie I remember you, there are a few of us still around doing exactly the same yoyoing,I'm now doing Slim and Save which is very similar to Cambridge, but you buy it direct (on line or via phone orders) it is much cheaper than CD. Good luck with your restart
  234. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Sounds like a good plan Caz, hope the gym can sort something out, but as the weather gets better, you'll be able to get on some nce long walks
  235. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Caz I can only echo what others have said, a couple of days off the diet over Easter isn't too bad, and you have done so well uo to now, put it behind you, you'll soon be back on track losing the lbs
  236. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I don't believe that, you alway have lots of interesting things to day Caz
  237. trisha

    12 week challenge - 84 days

    I'm glad Easter is over as well, too many temptations around, and i have to admit I haven't been 100% but not too bad! We went to a family 40th birthday at a resturant, so I did 3 packs and a protein meal, but probably had more at the meal than I should have but not too disasterous ( I didn't...

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Morning Caz, what have you got planned for today?
  239. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    DD went seeing The Lion King in London last year I think, she said it was amazing. Hope you are having a good weekend with Aaron.
  240. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Well done on the 15's Caz - I have the same scales as you, well done on the job interview as well, you might as well have do the interview, yo acan always turn the job down, if you decide it's not for you. What is Aaron studying for his degree? I've heard of Shrewsbury as well, but I don't...
  241. trisha

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    I'm impressed you resisted all the cakes Caz, I may have to dig my Beck book out I have it somewhere, but no idea where, we have been decluttering and packing some things away ready for getting the house on the market, and I think it may be in a box in the loft - I'll have to get DH to have a...
