I watched it and it was sad. As a psychologist and teacher, I agree with the comment above about abuse. This was such abusive behaviour, they were so enmeshed in a negative way. What 19 yr old boy wants his mom wiping his ass because he is too big, ill and tired to do it himself? She did not...

Whoopeee congrats. It does us all good to see someones weight coming off, keep up the good work.!

Yes! hang in there, you are doing the right things but does seem your body wants a change! Try the calorie up and calorie down, or perhaps try setting a lower calorie goal than you are averaging now. On DC we are striving for the 1200 low GI mark. However, as Jan has pointed out, I notice the...

Hi and welcome, Hang in there! Make sure you vary your veg and fruit cause it can get a bit monotonous but rest assured it does work!

Yes if we had nice weather and no PMS it would make life a whole lot easier lol

Yeah, its hard when you like a tipple lol. I too like a cold dry white wine when I am not working. So far it does not seem to make a whole lot of difference, I just try to keep the calories in mind for the next day. Though that is hard cause the day after a few drinks is when I like to have a...

I know what you mean I was picking and craving like crazy when I had cramps this week. Its just now starting to wear off!! I am gonna have to have a plan during PMS next month.

I love mushrooms, but would have to say that the mushroom stroganoff is kinda gross. I found it rather rich and sickly, a bit disappointed oh well. Dont like the bars either so usually have more veg or hand full of grapes or something! Luckily I dont have a sweet tooth so not a big deal.

Sounds great!! I am doing DC with my sister as buddy which is useful cause we can raise our eyebrows at each other when something suspect finds its way on to the plate lol

:DHello and welcome!! My advise would be that if you want to see a quicker weight loss, then leave out rice, bread, pasta from your diet at the beginning. These are high GI foods and defeat the purpose, and may bring on cravings. I can tell the difference doing DC with these items and without...

mrsfatawu,:) Well done on the 5 pound weight loss.... Whoopeee!!!

:break_diet:Thanks for the support guys. Had a crap day yesterday, no DC at all just kinda binged but should be back on track today! I suppose once I add my exercise regime... hummm.. I will start feeling a lot fitter. Just finding it hard with this weather, I feel like diving on the sofa with...

Well had to restart after Christmas.... So started on Sunday 8th weighed in at 141 to start. Gonna wait a week for WI I think. The week before Christmas lost 7 pounds in about 6 days, so excited this time to go the month because I know it works. Good luck out there.

Hi and welcome! My biggest tip would be to try to stick with the foods as closely as possible. Portion control is important, therefore drastically changing the portions defeats the purpose. Also, be careful how you substitute food. The foods are meant to be low GI and calorie controlled. So...

Hi Jan, I have just restarted after the Christmas break. I find it useful to put everything I eat into an online diary at www.fitday.com it measures for you and you can track that you are staying around or under the 1200 calorie goal for diet chef. I also started to notice how many "extras"...

I also find that keeping a food diary is so helpful. This is a really cool site to keep track of nutrients, calories, goals etc. www.fitday.com Makes you feel like you are in control again! Good luck all

Hi Ben, Good luck, I think you will like this method of losing weight because you dont have to go without anything. Plus you can add your favorite low cal veg which is good. The only thing I would say about people that are not seeming to lose weight is what they choose to add. The whole point...

Whoopee, Started on Tuesday 16th Dec Tues- 144 Thurs- 141 Have stuck to only diet chef food. Have not felt hungry at all, slight cravings when I smell something good. I actually feel like the fat is melting from my body! Sure my waist is down already. I do not like those energy bar things...

Okay, Start date Tuesday- 144 Thursday- 141 3 pounds gone whoopee

Hi Damon, Welcome, just started yesterday also. I want to lose about 1 1/2 stone to get back to my normal weight. I am starting with a month of diet chef which is going to work well for me I think. Humm just thinking back to my high school days. I was so fit and fine, and thought I needed so...

Hi Jasmine, Welcome, I just started also. Am trying healthy eating, but going to kick start it with Diet chef, so far so good!! Will weigh in at end of week to tell how its going. Take care, Estelle

Well, from what I could gather. Its a mixture of both. Because of the huge amounts of hormornes in the depo, it increases estrogen and the body thinks it is preparing for childbirth, therefore it mimics pregnancy and also increased appetite. The weight gain on depo is confusing because at first...

Thanks everyone, just gonna set up some kind of ticker and spruce up my pages a bit more. First day going well I think, feelin a bit tired tho.

Thanks, so far so good. Gonna try the food for 5 weeks at least, hope it doesnt get to monotonous lol

Thanks Jim, and congrats, looks like you have done well!

Oh Dear, dont get me started on depo. I gained over 20 pounds, hair fell out, arm tremors, blurry vision, etc. There is a black box warning against it now!! I had my last injection in January of last year after I finally figured out what was happening. Side effects mimic thyroid problems and...

Hi, I just started today. Doesnt seem like too many newbies huh? I suppose people are waiting until after Christmas. Hope your food arrived!! Just gonna try this pea soup now lol

Hello, My name is Estelle and I am just starting today. I plan to lose about a stone, then another 7 pounds. :rolleyes: So far this morning have had the granola which was pretty good considering I do not generally eat breakfast, never mind cereal. lol. Gonna try pea and ham soup for lunch, and...

Oops. Forgot to say I was trying the Diet Chef. Will post in that forum also!!!
