Hey sparklychar, isn't it a great experience though, such a different way of life. I've been there many time as my mum has lots of family there. I'd want to live in Delhi though for convenience, cheaper flights, better pay, more amenities, better schools and its a capital. Have you considered...

Hey MsV, thanks for the encouragement. India would provide us with a better lifestyle as I'd have support with the everyday things. I'm being completely thorough though. I'm on the diet still but this weekend I have had a couple of allowed things from ss+, I tried to lower the amount of...

Hey sparklychar, are you back on it? You definitely have the right attitude! I have a chocolate crunch bar whenever I need some chocolate and I have a spicy Toyota soup when I need something spicy and hot. Although sometimes, the thought of doing this for another 14ish weeks, kinda depresses me...

Hey MsV, it is hard separating from my ex but we are both practical. We've got a great, open relationship and we have enough life experience to not see things through rose tinted glasses. So hopefully we'll be ok. Mostly I just miss my best friend. I'm going to see him this week. I realised...

Hey well done! 10.5lbs is a fantastic loss! I have looked on the net but its still hard. There are a lot of frogs to kiss and I don't have the energy and have come to the realisation that there is no rush, I'm enjoying having my kids to myself! Lol. I also met my ex of 3yrs on the net and kept...

Hey pampered, its nice to have somewhere to talk to people who can empathise with you and also be going through the same emotions as yourself. Then there is all the practical advice we share. I'm more than happy to ramble on! You're really lucky to have such a supportive family. They must be...

Hey sparklychar and MsV, the 30 day challenge is a great target to set. Stick with us doll and you'll be fine! We'll support you best we can, we're all in the same boat. Good luck for your weigh in sparklychar. Tell us the results as soon as! I cook for my two children and I also deal with a...

Hey Pampered, I'm pleased that someone else has joined The March Team! Lol. Well done on your great loss! It's highly motivational to lose that much in your first weigh in. I've felt the health implications of being overweight and have ignored them for long enough. I think I'd really enjoy...

Hey IronicDontYaThink, how is your son? Thanks. I'm really pleased about my weight loss. I suffered from some horrible and very realistic food dreams, last year but I think it was from 5wks on. They were truly upsetting! They were so real. My relationship stated with CD roughly 3yrs ago. I...

Hey IronicDontYaThink, great username! Well done on your success thus far. I'm now on day 14 and I've lost 4lbs this week. Great. Need to complete this week now. I'm finding it ok simply because I'm keeping my head down and chugging the water. How are you feeling? Is this your first time...

Hey all! Welcome Stoshy, sister in law problems are worse, I can't even slap her!! 5st will disappear in no time. I'm shocked at how quickly you can lose the weight on CD. Sometimes I get impatient but have to remind myself that I should be thankful that I can do it in CD time! Lol...

Hey sparklychar, I totally agree. I think when you consider all the crap we buy, (and yes it is crap otherwise we wouldn't be in this situation) total it up and its shocking how much we'd spend. I'm pleased to hear you are back on track now. It's tough and don't I know it, since I'd been...

Don't feel bad Rhibro, keep positive and do what you are already doing, which is to get right back to it. Posting on here helps loads. We're right with ya hun.

Hey msv, what perfume did you buy? I love perfume! I've been so must the last few days as my mum has jus returned from India so I've spent a lot of time at hers with the family. She's bought me so many beautiful outfits which I'm hugely excited about. So now I have the some of the outfits I...

Hey sparklychar. You're more than welcome to join in. I'm also doing SS as I find it easier than SS+. Drinking the water is fine when I'm home but when I'm out I find it difficult. Mainly cos I'm not used to drinking this much water but from past experience I know my body will adjust. How...

Hey girlygirl, well done on your 4lbs loss! That's great while still eating. For me, the stricter the better. Tell me about your low carb meals. I'm a vegetarian and love my potatoes, bread and pasta. What do you have on a typical week? I'm also studying but don't have to worry bout exams for...

A foot rub sounds like heaven! Unfortunately I have to pay someone for any kind of massage! Lol. Well done on keeping strong. We all have wobblies but that's the true test and getting through those moments is the equivalent to passing with flying colours! I've drunk 1.5ltrs and going strong...

Hey msv, no probs whatsoever. I'm just glad I could help. How did you get on with your water yesterday? My electricity came back on bout 4pm finally. So all is good on that front. Now for my problem. I can't sleep. I'm chronically tired and want to avoid taking any sleeping pills as I have in...

Thanks girlygirl. How's you?

Hi rax, thanks for the support. I successfully lost 3st last year and couldn't have managed it as easily without the support on here. Are you a CDC or on the other side of the fence? Lol. Msv, through previous attempts I have learnt how to control my water intake by two simple steps, I have...

He's also notorious for his quote "To forbid us anything is to make us have a mind for it. Lol. Hey msv, how much weight are you hoping to rid of? It's rubbish to put the weight back on but I look upon it as a learning curve! I haven't told anyone bout my diet so hopefully we can support...

Thank-you. I'm really frustrated and unhappy as the electricity in my area is down. I've had no warning so didn't charge anything up this morning. Argh. Still going strong. How are you all doin?

Ah thanks peta. How are you getting on?

Hey paz, how much have you lost so far? Are you on SS? Is your wedding nearer the beginning or end of May? Either way, you'll be a lot lighter than you are now! Good luck.

Thanks girlygirl1. I've been for my 1st weigh in and I've lost 12lbs. I'm ecstatic and aknowledge I have a long way to go. Good luck to everyone for the week ahead x.

Thank you. As no one really knows I'm on this diet, I haven't shared my weight loss with everyone. It feels great to have someone supporting you on here so sincerely, thank you.

Lol. Thanks Rhibro. How are you doing?

Week 1 weigh in and I've lost 12lbs! I'm chuffed and now weigh 15st 2lbs but I'm also aware that I need to keep my feet on the ground and not get too joyful cos I still have a distance to go. Previously, when I start losing weight I tend to start slipping cos I feel better. So well done me and...

Hi all, can't sleep. Was thinking and suddenly stumbled upon a revelation. I always wear make up, always. And I finally figured it out, that I wear it because I feel the rest of me looks so awful. It's the only thing I actually like about myself and my boobs (lol) so therefore I accentuate and...

I faffed about for ages, I knew I had to lose weight but couldnt get into it and then suddenly everything clicked into place. I'm here for you hun. Get back on it and start afresh.

Hey Rhibro, you're absolutely right, we can't pick our family so we have to find our own way to deal with things. How long have you been doing CD?

Aw pixar, you need to do what's right for you. I know I get caught up in this vicious cycle of thinking I've got too much weight to lose then eating more thinking I'm fat anyway! I'm a mother, I should know better! Are you exercising?

Hey Rhibro, I'm feeling the same as you. If I can lose 5st then as you see if I need to lose more and if I do, if I have the will to do it. It's great to have the support on here and know we are going through the same thing with CD. Are you SS? How long have you been on the diet? It's...

Oh that's great. Congrats. You do need to look great at your wedding so I completely get you. When I first discovered CD, I was constantly weighing myself. Now I didn't at the start and I haven't yet but I'm in a positive place. We'll see what next week is like! Lol. Do you do any...

Hi, I have a small bottle of coke zero a day as it helps me with that nasty taste in my mouth and helps my metabolism. My CDC as a few others I've met have all said its fine but it must be coke zero. It hasn't affected my weight loss. Good luck.

Hey yummymummy, well done on that great loss! It's a great motivator to see your success on the scales. I was bout 18 stone at my heaviest. I really never saw myself that big. Best thing I did was finding at starting this diet. My weight might go up and down but this is the only diet that I...

Welcome pixar. Are we all doin ss? When is your next weigh in? Oh my god veve! I'm so pleased that someone else can empathise with me, not that I wish this on anyone! Lol. I'm very family orientated and being an Indian, we've always had large families so when she caused a split in the family...

Aw thanks Kels.

Hey Veve, 8lbs is a great 1st week loss. Aw 13 wks old! I really want a baby, I know its kind of impossible cos I'm actually single. Lol. I'd love a baby though, until it reached the age 1 anyways!! Do you have something keeping you motivated? I'll apologise now to everyone cos I suffer from OCD...

Hi everyone, sorry for disappearing but I suffered a major blip and having some minor surgery. Sorry. Thanks for all of your support. I'm finally back on it and feeling great. I'm on day 5 and I'm in ketosis. The last couple of months I've not managed to get past day 1 and the fact that I'm...

Ooh, how many years are you celebrating and I'm assuming you mean you wedding anniversary? Lol.

You target weight is definitely obtainable. My sons birthday is on the 22nd and I'm hoping to be close to 12st too. I'm feeling positive at the moment. I sorted all my clothes out last year when I lost weight so everything is tight on me as I was adamant not to buy anything in a bigger size...

My two pennies worth. I have a can of coke zero a day. It doesn't affect my weight loss, it helps wake my mouth up as I sip it through the day and it helps with metabolism too. I figure this "journey" it tough and if I can use anything that is allowed to make it easier then why not. Good luck.

Hey there, Have you got any events coming up or outfits you want to get into? Anything to keep you motivated? CD consumes my whole life while I'm on it which it shouldn't but I'm a bit obsessive! Lol.

I do find it hard when I can smell food but my trick is to have a can of coke zero a day which helps to make your tongue feel alive, keeps you satisfied and helps with the metabolism. It is an allowed drink and others might frown upon it but if by just having that can of coke zero helps make...

Hi, I've been on CD before and March 2010, I was 12st after losing 5st over a year. It was the lightest I'd been in 5years having put lots of weight on after having my children. Anyways I stupidly ended up putting lots of weight on and am now 16st. I would ideally like to be 11st and would...

You look great! I still can't believe how quickly the weight drops off!

I'm looking forward to the day that I too can do the same! Shorts, skirts, jeans, anything other than my leggings and longest top I can find! Lol. Well done.

Keep doing what you're doin, it obviously works! Lol.

Oh my god! You truly have transformed into this gorgeous beautiful woman. Well done and congrats on the younger fella! You enjoy yourself as you've probably paid way too much attention to peoples opinions about you when you were bigger. You've definitely inspired me to want to become a yummy...

Wow, you look half the person. We all slump when we put weight on but you can tell you look more confident and happy now. Well done chick x.

You have done amazing well!

You look really good in that dress! Good on ya.

Wow, that's an amazing achievement. Well done you!

Hi Everyone, I am returning to CD SS after losing 2.5stones in May 2009. Now here I am again to finish the rest of my journey. I went over to the darker side and came to a halt with CD when xmas was upon us. So basically, I just want some encouragement and help along the way and hopefully I...

Hi there, I am currently doing a mix of SS and SS+. I want some clarification as to whether "ole del paso spice mix for original smoky bbq" would effect my ketosis state? I would only be sprinkling about a tablespoon of it on my Quorn pieces. I have included the nutritional information below...

Booking a holiday is always an incentive for losing weight! So as you said "we can do it"!

Hey Snowbaby. That username sounds Christmassy to me! It's lovely! Yeah, I did the same thing too, lost weight and gained. Oh well we are here again now though and I feel really determined especially after hating myself so much since I came off CD! That thought alone should keep me going! So...

Ah, thanks Rosie. I'm biased and think they are the best looking kids in the world!!

Well done on your loss so far. I'm sure you will reach your goal for Xmas. Good luck.

Hello!

Hey hun, I'm in the same boat as you. Good luck on your journey and hopefully our paths will cross again.

Hi BerryRed, I am doing SS at the moment although I mentioned to you already that I feel like I am struggling. Yes cos of being on a "diet", yes cos I am still in early stages of CD but also cos I have a terribly sore throat and the onset of a cold and would something warm. If all else fails...

Hey Berryred, I know exactly what you mean. I keep saying to myself "it's a couple of months of being strong and then I can concentrate on just maintaining. I must admit that at the moment I'm not feeling 100% I can see it through. Just take each day as it comes and repeat!

Wow, Charley24, have you really noticed such a difference in just 13 weeks? That is such a motivation. I would love to hear about what size you were and are now and such things. I found I got a little obsessed when I first started CD last time too! Hope your all well. Stoshy, whats happenin...

Hi Kel, well done your 4lb loss! I too started on CD before meeting my CDC so I don't know precisely what my first week loss was but it really is insignificant. I also would like to see, at least the next eight weeks through on this diet. So, here we go, we have met with our CDC's, got our...

Hi All, had my weigh in and I am now 7lbs lighter! Kel, hun I so sorry to hear you are struggling, I know what it can be like and especially when it is the time of the month! Just stick with it and take it day by day, that is the what I am constantly saying to myself. Please let me know how...

Hey All, I've had my weigh in and I'm 7lbs lighter. I'm very happy but need to stay focused and not just give up cos I've lost a few pounds! Stoshy, well done for being truthful as I know that it can be hard even when we have never met each other! When I was falling off the wagon last time, I...

Hey Stoshy, me can motivate each other, be completely honest and share some laughs and experiences together! Great! I've got my week 1 weigh in tomorrow. I'm so looking forward to it. Have a good evening, I'm now going to watch Leeds and Liverpool play!

Way to go girl!

Hey Stoshy, you and me have a similar amount of weight to lose. So good luck and hopefully we'll have the chance to converse again on here!

Hey xKatiex, welcome back! How are you feeling? You did great to lose all the weight before and here you are to finish the rest like me. So what day is your weigh in? I've had my first shake and I'm now on my second litre of water. Yay, each day we are getting closer to goal!

Hey Everyone, I'm feeling good! Tomorrow is weigh in and I can't wait to see what my body has been up to! Kel, I'm so pleased that your first day went well. :) So you are having an assortment of soups, porridges and shakes right? I'm so boring as all I have is the chocolate tetras oh and the...

Hi All, I survived the afternoon at my mum's without giving in and tasting her lovely cooking. Really, I must deserve to lose a few extra pounds after going through such a difficult experience!! Only if it worked in that way! So I've been good and now I just need to get through the next three...

Thanks Berryred. Wow! You have done fantastic! How are you feeling now you've achieved so much?

Yes Kel, I have many things I wish to accomplish around the house. My next mission is to semi take apart my wardrobe, enough to move across the room. Please keep bugging me to do this as it's a daunting job but could be very rewarding for me by having lots more space in my room! You CDC sounds...

Miniminx, I know exactly what you mean about the weight, the diet and those closest to you. The weight yes, why do we not complete our mission and then put more weight on? I think for me, I lose a bit of weight and then get cocky and think that I can take a day off which turns into two days...

Hi Kel, Things are going well for me thanks. I must have reached ketosis cos I spent the entire day cleaning my dining room which has been absolute chaos for over a year now. My main reason for doing it was due to envisaging myself sitting there with my partner and friends, entertaining and...

Well done on your great weight loss! I too can't do the "add a meal" plans as yet cos I just want to add some extras to make it flavoursome. All the best for your journey x.

Congratulations on such wonderful news. Enjoy! P.S You look amazing in your picture so enjoy getting pampered for a little while!

Hey, I met my CDC yesterday and she seems nice. I weighed at 14st 2lbs. I was a little gutted cos my scales have been playing up and saying I am in the 13's (stone I mean). Anyway I want to be 10st 7lbs and my new journey has begun. I'm on day 5 now and feeling good. I've decided not to be...

I also have no pictures with my children and like babycakes mentioned, how will I have any memories of our times together. That thought is quite disturbing. The main reason, I'm fed up of being overweight and putting so much thought into what I'm wearing! It takes me ages to figure out what to...

Hi, I definitely believe that losing weight can improve your love life. For me personally it's because I'm doing something about my weight and also because I feel more confident. Thanks

Hi Everyone, I am returning to CD SS after losing 2.5stones in May 2009. Now here I am again to finish the rest of my journey. I went over to the darker side and came to a halt with CD when the school holidays came about, then birthdays and so forth and everything just became one big excuse! I...

Ok, seriously where is everyone???!! Gillian, 3lb loss! Well done hun, your viewpoint regarding your weight loss is spot on. Like you said, which other diet gives you results like CD and you still get all the vitamins and nutrients required. I'm 100% today!! I would like to get into the 12's...

Hey all, I fell off the wagon but kind of deliberately. My boyfriend has been here and he is obviously concerned with my lack of eating but I was disgusted with myself when he asked my daughter if I ate when we went out to a party. She replied saying "mummy had lots of sausages and chicken...

Hey all, Can't stop but I have lost (drum roll please).............9lbs woo!! Checked at boots as well just to be sure and yes, it is correct. Amend tickers later. Love to you all x.

Hey All, Hels, how you doing hun? So the curry wasn't worth it eh? I know, it's crap isn't it. Even if I have a little bite (I have to taste some of the kids meals, I don't want to poison them!) I still feel awful and bloated with less than half a teaspoon! What's that all about? I do try to...

I also would love to know some vegetarian options. I'm SSing at mo but I am worried about getting bored once on maintenance. Quorn is great and I love it but i dislike bland food, being Indian, I have been brought up on spices and seasoning. I know fish is another popular option but I only...

I found this thread very interesting, it's been motivational to read all your posts. My "moment" was when I broke up with my ex and he wanted to hurt me and therefore said "you fat *ucking bitc*". I don't blame him as I said many things too but at that moment I knew that I needed to do it for...

Hey All, I'm going strong on my 3rd day of SS! I'm not going to say that nothing wont slip me up cos I could wake up thinking positively but during the evening and while cooking the kids dinner, I can struggle. I just need to keep posting on here, it's what kept my so motivated at the...

Hey All......I'm back!! Finally after having a week out I now feel ready to continue on my CD journey! I've received so many comments since coming off that I want that feeling to continue and the only way to do that is by marching forward which is quite fitting considering a am a member of The...

Aw Debs, sounds like things are tough but also that you have things under control. I'm sure if circumstances were different, you would be out of there. You stay strong and seriously we are always here for you and hopefully vice versa when I need ya! Which brings me nicely onto my ex. He is back...

Hels, well done hun on your 5lb loss. You must be ecstatic about it! Gill, I hope knowing that your Gran and grandpa will be reunited is comforting at least. DisneyParis, as Twingo said, we are a team but we do not exclude anyone, so no matter when you started, what plan you are doing or if...

Welcome DisneyParis, how are you finding the diet? How much have you lost thus far? Hels, good luck for your WI today. Post as soon as you can! Twingo, you holiday sounds great. It's always good to take time out. Hope your feet and legs feel better soon x. Gill, I am so sorry for your...

Vixster, you should be sooooo proud of yourself! That is will power and strength. It must be great that you are seeing the difference in your clothes. Things with the ex are okay and will be better once he stop talking and starts showing me that things will be different this time. Smanf...

When is your WI Hels? My WI's have been changed to Saturday now so the kids also get to cheer me on!!

Hey Twingo, how was lovely, romantic Rome? What was the weather like (typical British citizen question, I know)? Well done on only gaining a pound! We have both been lucky but it's time to kick on now! Lets do it hun x. Oh, are your feet any better?

Dexstersmum, well done on your 7lb loss. ;) Hels, please don't stress, instead just ensure that you don't do what I did and go on a complete binge. I have been 100% today and the worst of the day is over so I'm confident. It'll be my first full day since Tuesday. Onwards and upwards babe! :)...

Hey All, I've a rubbish week regarding my diet, a fantastic week for my love life and I only put on 1lb. This is obviously a gain but I sincerely thought I'd put alot more on so therefore I am happy. Have eaten today and am definitely starting again tomorrow 100%. I think the reason I have...

Hels, well done 5lbs! Wow, you must be so pleased!

Well done Lauralou, 5lb loss, that's fantastic. Go mad and celebrate with a cold glass of water! Lol. :character00100: Egg, 3lbs is a great loss! :character00100: Name one other diet where you can lose so much weight? You should be celebrating that you have stuck to 100% and not feel...

Arghhhhhh! I've messed up and had a slice of pizza yesterday and chips today. I feel gutted as I was doing so well. I'm wearing a skirt today that is getting loose, none of my trousers fit me and I'm wearing a belt that would only fit my waist, now on the first hole it's slipping right off me...

Hey All, I haven't got long as the ex is still here and he doesn't know anything about CD or this website. I'm afraid if he did know about this website he would be able to read all of intimate thoughts and know my weaknesses, which NO man should know! Especially not an EX. Things are going...

Hi All, Sit back ladies, this is a long one! Gem, I have a boy who is 3 and girl that is 5. Cameron and Jaslene. It's so good to hear that all "normal" boys are loud! Lol. Diego is such a lovely name- Go Diego Go. My kids love that programme! The gym will be great especially during the...

Ah Sarah Lou, you have lovely friends and I bet you are so proud of them. I will definitely let you know how I get on at the gym. I'm going to be keeping a diary of when I go as I don't want to do what I normally do and start giving up cos it's too much like hard work. I guess it takes...

Well done Sarah Lou on reaching your 2nd goal. I have also joined a gym today. I'm really excited. The way I see it is that joining the gym is how we will maintain our weight loss so it's an investment into our future! Good luck hun x.

Hey, Good luck with your start hun and as mentioned above, keep posting on here and reading all the success stories as it's such good motivation. :) The toilet thing, when I first started I needed to go for a wee every 5 mins (no exaggeration :o) but now I'm in my 5th week and I went 2.5hrs...

Hey Gem, The membership is £80 a month which isn't cheap at all but as I said when I add together how much I'm spending on activities, the petrol and the whizzing around from venue to venue, it works out just a little more expensive with up to date equipment, less travelling and a safe...

Well done Julie, You do have to make CD work for you and incorporate it into your normal life. I think it's a huge achievement every time I cook for the kids and don't eat! I have avoided some social situations, those where I knew people are a little jealous to see me doing something about it...

Jaycey, I totally agree with what your friend said. I have been clearing out things that were slightly loose on me before starting CD. now, I've either given them to my mum (she's a great machinist) or I'm giving them to charity. I don't really want to alter my clothes cos if I'm working this...

Hey all, Me and the kids have just got home about half an hour ago. The kids were starved and so was I as I hadn't consumed much water. Anyway, I tried to be sensible and made scrambled egg. I took a bite and spat it out and quickly threw the rest in the bin. I'm soooo glad I did. Just having...

Ah, babe, well done. This site is everything I searched for, previously when I have tried CD. I believe that I'm doing fantastic this time and stay motivated because of all of you on here and your fantastic experience!

Morning All, I have managed to get some sleep (referring to my toothache, can I still call it that when the tooth has been taken out?) but when I had my first cigarette I was in agony. :cry:I know, why complain when I'm the one that is smoking but it's the only thing that has getting me...

Aw hun, I really feel for you. My daughter is like my OH as she keeps telling me I can't eat cos she knows how much I want to lose weight. Although she thinks I have a healthy meal when they go to bed, I wish! I bet your DH is missing you so much and cant wait to be back in your arms!

Hels, that is such a great idea about making a healthy cookbook relevant to yourself. I don't buy healthy cook books as I know alot have fish and chicken and I'm a vegetarian. So I think I will have to pinch your idea! If thats ok of course? Each CDC is different but maybe you should try...

Hey Deb, yes the kids are in bed and I can finally hear silence! Lol. :) The ex. Well, we are going to hang out and we'll definitely be sleeping in the same bed. I don't have a spare room you see (yeah, like thats the only reason!). ;) You ride a motorbike? I always assumed you meant a...

LauraLou, chicken chow mein sounds great and I'm a vegetarian! Lol. My stomach keeps grumbling. I have to check whether I'm still in ketosis as I've taken soooo many painkillers today! Lol. Anybody upto anything nice at the weekend?

I know, which is why I have to stay away from mothers! Part of me just thought about grabbing a takeaway on the way home but I fought the feeling as best I could. I'm really excited about seeing my ex, for many reasons but I would have preferred to wait a little longer until I went down a...

Evening All, I went to mum's and made the kids there food and saw cauliflower and potato curry. It looked so nice and I nearly gave in, more than once! I stayed strict though which I was really pleased about as my mums close friend popped in with her daughter and they both commented, loads on...

Hey Debs, I'm ok, my mouth is still hurting. They want me to stop smoking but while on this diet, that is the only pleasure I have. As Gem, said at least you know why you haven't lost as much and as I have said, at least other people are noticing the difference! :) Skinnie minnie, so what was...

Hey Deb, that's great news! 2lb loss! :character00100: It might not be as much as you wanted but at least you are losing. Do you have any water flavourings? They are really nice. I only tried it when I visited my new CDC and it's very nice the sunshine orange. :drool:

Morning Everyone, Bring on another 100% day! :) Good luck for your WI's to Gem and Deb. Well done to Thinklite, 4lb loss. :character00100: Weekends are the hardest but I think it will easier for me once I've joined the gym and it will keep me and the kids occupied of a weekend and the...

Hey, I have used fibre sure after experiencing problems myself and feel much better since. You can get it from boots and it doesn't affect ketosis either!:D Good luck hun, I know it can be agony. :(

Hi, I have been talking to lots of people and reading lots of posts and the general consensus tends to be that bio oil is the best form of treatment for stretch marks. Can anyone tell me if they use or have used this and if they have noticed a difference? I'm sure I don't need to tell you...

I think I have mentioned this before but I use fibre sure which you can get from any boots. I don't have any trouble. I haven't been for a pooh for about three days but I certainly don't feel constipated nor am I suffering from any symptoms. Hope that helps. I'm all drugged up so the pain...

Muffin muncher (still laugh everytime I type that Lol) she is great. No idea where to start looking for a car apart from the autotrader. Don't worry too much about "fluffing" up, as long as you stick to it once again, you'll be fine. Please don't be sorry for posting about food and cheating. I...

Hey Guys, I have been crying like a baby! My car is an 02 plate and is a great car but there also some major problems with it. I was really concerned about how I would manage financially as the MOT is due and the repairs have been estimated at £1700. Anyway I was talking to my mum and trying...

Morning everyone! Who is 100% with me today? I'm feeling positive and I'm ready to see another day on CD SS although I am in excruciating pain with my tooth. I can't believe I'm in so much agony, two days on. Is this usual? :cry:HELP! LauraLou, well done on your 3lb loss hun. :character00100...

Magic pants! Lol, I hate those things! Well done on your 7lb loss. :character00100: I have also lost a stone and feel the same about my clothes. They are loose but still can't get into a size down. Can't wait though! :D

Hels, thats 2.5lbs lost! Why are you feeling down? It's a loss either way. Don't let the scales rule you. I'm not preaching, I'm in no position to but you know you how hard you've worked and it will pay off. ;) Gem, I'm having my WI next Friday too, so I'll have to wait more than a week but be...

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Letty, next year you'll look sexy and pretty." :birthday: Not saying you don't now but I'm not very good at rhyming. Should I have bothered?? Happy birthday babe and what a great OH you have!

Debs, I only have Tetra drinks and I prefer it that way but you should definitely share that with everyone as I know there are lots of people who crave different textures, consistency and so on!

Yeah, you are right Losing it for good but I have been weighed on so many scales now and received so many different results that I've decided to stick to my new CDC's. I wouldn't say that I don't want to get weighed every week cos I'm just a very inquisitive person but it truly doesn't matter as...

Wow, Deb, you are so right. Those pictures are amazing! I can't believe she didn't do anything to tone as she looks fantastic. I do want to exercise as I thought it would help my weight loss but also cos I feel unfit. At least I now know that you don't need to do it in order to lose the weight...

No Gem, you absolutely right. I can either let it really get me down or see the upside and I've lost 20lbs in a month. I guess I am really pleased actually as I was losing faith in CD since my scales were showing I've lost lots of weight and my clothes are saying different. If I look at it as...

Debs, that really does sound like so much fun. I would love to do something like that, most probably when the kids are older! Gem, you are so right. I want to go by her scales so I have to change everything on here. You were right to ask about the competitions as it's not something I've even...

Hey all, I have previously mentioned that I went to meet with a new CDC today. Ok well, I went did the usual and then stood on the scales. I weighed 14st 6lbs. My scales say 12st 11lbs and my last CDC weighed me last week at 13st 8lbs. My slip up wasn't that bad. :( Anyway, it doesn't bother...

Hi, I am suffering from insomnia once again. I was sleeping beautifully when I first started CD. Anyway, can you take sleeping tablets while on CD, SS? Really appreciate some feedback. :)

No idea what style as yet. We are joining the David Lloyd gym together and they have so many things for the kids. :) So how long have you been doing Karate. My parents only took my three brothers but not me. :cry:

Well, at least I know who to call when I go to Spain! I got an A in my GCSE's for Spanish but I think cos I've never visited the country, I've forgotten alot of it.:( I have been to India, many times. Thats where all my holidays took place, in the village! Lol.:p It's truly beautiful there, lots...

Well done Hun, you must be so pleased. :character00100: What a great idea do do your WI's twice a week, talk about keeping you motivated.

Everyone, Vixster - loss of 6lbs. :character00100: You must be soooo pleased!

Evening All, I feel like, well I have been on here all day! :p Captain Pugwash, well done on your 4lb loss. :character00100: Did it meet your expectations? Gem, I'd love to live in a warm, sunny country. I've often thought of moving to India (my parents are from there) as the quality of...

Oh, I have my WI tomorrow! I'm well excited. Also completely irrelevant but me and my ex have had the moment I have been waiting for. When we can talk to each other without being awkward and finally be moving past why we broke up. It was a great feeling and I just wanted to share that with my...

Evening All, Still going strong, 100% :character00115: LauraLou, as you probably know, I did the same but we just need to get back to it 100%. I know we can! I agree with everyone else, we each do what we have to in order to make this diet work for us. ;) Wow, Gem, why do you continue to...

Hey All, I'm back from the dentist and boy what a roller coaster of emotions that was! It's all good at the moment as part of m mouth is numb. Not supposed to smoke either, I mean that is, what has been, keeping me busy while on this diet. :cry: Skinnie Minnie, no probs about the sweetcorn...

Welcome to the team Scotskt! Gem, thanks so much, I'm really not looking forward to it but hey, who does? Lol. :giggle: Wow, how long did you live in Spain? Don't worry too much about TOTM, I'd be more concerned with having to stock up on tampax again! Lol. :D

I'm sooooo scared! Especially as I have got to cook and look after the kids! They are good kids though and I'm sure they won't be too much trouble (she prays)! :giggle:

Wow thanks you guys, you all seem to be very active. I am definitely going to get the Wii Fit. I would love a treadmill or cross trainer but firstly it's money and secondly, where the hell would I put it?! Lol. :8855: I have been doing toning exercises for my arms but I need all the motivation...

Morning All, Twingo, I know exactly what you mean. As parents we want our children to experience so many things and this holiday, even at such a young age, will teach them so much. Wow, Rome should be fantastic and while you are on holiday, don't go mad but I'd certainly have to let my hair...

Hey all, Twingo, well done on your 3lb loss! You go girl! :character00100: Gem, I guess we are officially a team now. Makes no difference as we know we are a team in the truest possible sense. ;) I know, I'm fuming about having to pay extra just cos I'm a lone parent. I'm not the kind of...

Ok, that was really weird. We've been moved! Lol. Oh well, we're still the same.....right? Lol. Hels, what time of year did you go to Egypt? What was the weather like? Wow, Dextersmum, how long you going Florida for? Have you been there before. I would have loved to have gone there but it's...

Oh hun, that sounds great, I'll bet you have lots of fun shopping for swim wear. This is my first real holiday, and a first for the kids too. I'm so excited because I know they are going to love it and I want to be able to give them that even if I am a single parent. I have my three closest...

Gem, I do think you should leave a shake for when you return after your classes. I don't know how you do so much though, I really envy you. :p Debs, thanks for your support. You are doing great and knowing how strong you are all being is motivation enough for me at the moment! ;) Skinnie...

Yay. I'm currently addicted to Maria Kart! :p

Sounds like a deal to me. I probably won't be able to get it until a couple of weeks as I am having to budget!! :mad:

Hey, I've just been googling and it looks great. I will most definitely be buying that. I want to work out at home but need that motivation and guidance so this is right up my street. Thanks guys, you really are a fountain of knowledge!

Thanks Gembots, I know you are right, I guess I'm looking for a sign that it will happen! :p I really don't exercise though and I am kinda beginning to realise that I should be. I have a Wii so I will definitely be getting the Wii fit. Do you know if you can get yoga or Pilate's on the Wii...

Thanks for sharing with me. It's difficult for me to get to the gym and do not feel as motivated at home. I have started to work with some weights to tone my arms. Does anyone know anything about the power plates. Do you feel they help?

Hi, I have been doing this diet for a little over three weeks now and I have had an incredible weight loss but I have not dropped down a size. :( I was wondering whether you could tell me whether any of you guys are exercising and what sorts of things you are doing? I really need some...

Thanks for your positive comments guys. :) Can someone tell me about exercise and whether or not you are all doing it? Would love to know where I should stand on this. Obviously, I hate it!!! :D

Congratulations Hun! You really deserve it with all your determination x.

Hey SCrittenden, I know how you feel, after three weeks I messed up. :cry: We are not going to dwell on it though, yeah we made mistakes, we are only human but now we can kick on and correct our mistakes. I wish you lots of luck hun as I know how angry and frustrated you can get with yourself. :D

Hey Flowergirl, well done and keep at it but the only danger with weighing yourself so often is when you don't lose as much. I've done the same too and it's a great feeling when you see your weight going down each day! I was a little over enthusiastic with the water in my first week but I then...

Hels123smiles, I know exactly how you are feeling. I don't know how but this diet does work. I think because we here so many positive stories that we expect too much. We need to be patient and believe in it. I know it is easier said than done (as I've proved) but we need to if we want to lose...

Hey Losing It For Good, well done! I'm with you 100% all the way! I want to get into my skinny clothes!!!

Thanks Gembots, I've read so many posts and been told that it is difficult to get back into it but it's just a state of mind. I know I want to lose weight and I know that this is the quickest way so there's no using sulking about it! I think Legoland does sound great. It's a bit of distance...

Hey all, this is going to take a while! Madmum, thanks for the support. How are you getting on? :) Dextersmum, the weekend is definitely not the best time to restart but today is Monday so we have no excuses! Has you sister started yet? :) Cad1, wow I didn’t realise that drinking alcohol...

Yes we can Leona! I felt terrible cos I was so angry at myself and I was crying that I took it out on the kids and shouted at them as they were about to go to sleep. Anyway, I apologised to both of them and explained that I was upset and that I was not angry at them. While I was on the diet, I...

Hey All, I am going to keep this brief so I apologise for not greeting and replying to everyone personally but I will soon. I've slipped up again today. I'm so ashamed. I feel bloated, sick, and tearful. I am going to have an early night, plan to eat sensible tomorrow and start again Monday...

Thanks for your comments guys. Oinkstop, I totally empathise with you and understand your frustrations. Can anyone tell me, do you think it's because we should be exercising more? How much should you exercise? I have had a slip up yesterday but I'm so disheartened by the fact that I'm...

Hi Leona, I have also done the same and I feel exactly the same. The food I ate was awful, I feel bloated and sick and now I also feel teary. I don't know why I did it but the fact is it's done. Now we pick ourselves up and start a fresh tomorrow. I weighed myself today as I had eaten...

Hey LauraLou, I think gin and tonic is what they suggest if you are going to drink. Twingo, thank you so much. It is a learning curve and I know what I have do to do. I'm just so gutted, after over three weeks. :mad: Hope to see a post from you soon. Be as good as you can be! :D

Well everyone, I have messed up! I had a big mac and fries! :mad: I ain't going to go on about it, I'm just going to jump back into it as of tomorrow and not eat another thing. I guess I won't be doing that again cos when I finished, I felt so bloated and I felt guilty that I know, it's...

Hi everyone, I have done really well for the last three weeks and do not intend on giving up now but I've lost 34lbs and not even gone down a size! Everyone I've talked to regarding this has been really helpful and supportive but I'd love to hear what people have got to say on this subject...

Wow that is just fantastic. Unfortunately or not, I have lost lots of weight but not gone down a size yet but I'm sure I will! Keep up the great work and you'll reach your goal weight in no time!

Hey All, Losing it for good we are going to look great when we see the ex's and yes, they will be gob smacked at how sexy and fit and beautiful we look! :kissass:They can kiss a**! Fluffycat09, it’s important for me to address everyone by either their name or username cos we are not just fat...

Hey All, wow, women can really talk! Lol. Now my good news, people have been telling me all day how much weight I've lost. As I have mentioned before, my weight losses are amazing but I don't seem to be losing many inchs. Either way, it was so nice to hear so many people comment. I've arranged...

Hey all, Thinklite, please don't drink much more than the litres. I was drinking 4 ltrs and I started to feel really faint :(. I do get measured by my CDC but I have to admit that I don't have much faith in that system on a weekly basis. Where's minchiniiinnngan?! Lol. :8855: Debs, well...

Hi, This is very common with things that are important to us. I previously used class a drugs and I always dream about them. I find it very therapeutic cos when I wake up, I realise how gutted I was in my dream and that makes me more determined. My brother got married last August and I had a...

Wow, losing it for good, I hope I wake up and nothing fits me too! Obviously I want everything to be loose and not tight lol! :8855: I am having 3 or 4 shakes a day, depends how I feel really. I have been advised to drink 4 but I coped great on 3 before, not for this length of time admittedly...

Aw thank everyone. I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY BOOBS!! :mad: I'm the kind of person that loves to hear about all the intricate details about weight loss. I know everyone is different but at least it gives me a better idea of how things can be. Reading your posts is definitely making me more...

Thank you so much for your comments. Barnsie23, you really are an inspiration and those are the success stories I need to hear at the moment. It's just my CDC said that the weight on my hips my be hereditary and that I might not lose it. This disheartened me but I think she thought that I...

Thanks Dextersmum, I was feeling really peckish earlier when I was making my son's sandwich but I just popped on here and now I feel better. I think you are right, I mean I have had big losses and I've read posts where people lose alot and then suddenly they don't lose as much but drop a size...

Hi, I'm Sonya. I have been on CD, SS for 3 weeks now and I need some motivation. I have lost 35 lbs but not lost many inchs. I have looked at some fantastic threads but all my questions weren't answered. :( Can you tell me how long you have been on CD, when did you drop a size and if you have...

Thanks guys, I know I shouldn't worry but I have this vision of being the only person who can get to like 8st and still be the same size!!! It's just getting a bit too close to reality lol! :)

Hey, Been for my WI and I now weigh 13st 8lbs. Thats a further loss of 9lbs! I am really happy but to be honest, I'm not noticing much difference in my clothes and I'd happily stay at this weight if I could get into a size 12/14. I'm now starting to think that if I don't lose the weight I might...

Lol, everyone seems to be revealing their true colours now! Muffin Muncher please don't change the name cos I love it, it is perfect. Good luck on everyone's WI's today. I'm also off soon to see my CDC and I can't wait to come back and post. Thinklite, I am just like that. My day is spent...

Hey All, We have a few new additions to this thread today! Welcome to Muffin, Poppet Twinkles and thinklite. We are in this together. :) Dextersmum, I'm getting better but I'm dreading next week when I have to return to the dentist to have a tooth removed! At least my teeth will be the...

Hey all, I'm back from the dentist and my son was great but me not so great. The right side of my mouth and tongue are numb. I have had a filling and need to go back next week to have a tooth taken out! Anyway, going to have my first shake and then I'll probably hop back into bed for a bit...

Hey All, Who's ready for a 100% day? :talk017: Smanf, well done on your 3lb loss! :character00100:Can you notice the difference in your clothes yet. I'm so impatient! I'm wearing these trousers that I love and they are lose around my belly/crotch area and yet I still feel like that is not...

No I'm not much of a walker neither. :o As you probably already know, I broke up with my boyfriend. I found out that he had a dating profile on one of these sites:mad:. He says he didn't do anything and I truly believe him but he still betrayed my trust which is what made me finish with him. I...

Aw hunny, I can't really empathise with you as cos as you know I split with my partner. You deserve this though and don't let anyone tell you any different but also please remember that he is probably dealing with his own insecurities. I know that is no excuse but find out what his issues are...

Hi Genna, as long as you have the determination and the will power, you will be fine. Just keeping drinking the water and get on here if you need distracting. I find that when I start looking at threads on here, the time goes so quickly. Good luck to you and you hubby!

Hi All, sit back cos this is going to be a long one! Nellis10, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, you had a great weight loss and we all want to be you"!! :birthday: Dextersmum, 10lbs loss! Well done hun. :character00100: Debs, I am suffering from a cold and have had the kids...

Hi all, some of you have probably conversed with me but now I really need someone's help. I have a cold. I'm not being dramatic but as I have two little ones to look after on my own, I need something to take the edge off. I'm over two weeks into CD, SS. Can anyone tell me what medication I...

Hey All, Debs I really love your signature, mind if I put that on mine too? :p Cooking for the kids can be hard at times but easier than cooking for my friends. My friend was over last night and she said she had some bean salad and asked if I wanted any. I said a very firm "NO" which made her...

Nellis10, stay on this website a while, look at the inspirational threads and keep typing and you'll soon realise that an hour or so has passed. It helps me to stop me from feeling peckish. :p Hope that helps!

Hey All, Welcome SCrittenden and nellis10. Everyone is doing it together! :talk017: Well done gypsyqueen on your loss. You have a great attitude and are going to succeed in no time! :) Having a very busy weekend but miss being on here! My son and daughter have had their first swimming...

Lol, everyone feeling good today? We are getting closer to our goals as each day passes. :) Debs, well done babe, you should be really proud of yourself! :character00100: Twingo31, I think it's a great idea to donate the amount you have lost in total. I'm in. :wee: Gembots, that is such a...

Oh Hun, you must be so pleased. Did you ever think that it would ever be possible to lose weight so quickly?! It's an amazing feeling. Are you noticing the difference in your clothes at all?

Congratulations Gembot! If you keep losing at that rate, you'll reach your goal in no time! :) Bring it on!

Hey Hugybear, welcome to CD. We wish your mum all the best and we will be here to support you whenever you need us. We have a thread named "The March Team" where everyone who started circa March has joined and it's always helpful knowing that we have started at a similar time to you and know...

Amyeve, I'm so pleased for you. I'm sure you will lose the weight and if you stick to it religiously, you may even lose a little more so you can really enjoy your all inclusive! :drool: I'm thinking about booking a nice holiday for me, the kids and some friends. By then I should underweight...

Morning All, I'm feeling great and positive. I keep imagining what I'll look like when I lose weight and about all the lovely things I want to wear! Twingo31, I'm just as impatient as you and it's killing me but what is keep me motivated is knowing that doing CD is the quickest way I will be...

Wow, congratulations. You should be extremely proud of yourself to reach this weight. Go out and buy clothes and enjoy it! :)

Dextersmum you are so right. I am taking each day at a time too but it's coming on here everyday that is making it possible for me to contnue. There are so many inspirational post and threads on here. I found a sticky titled "before and after pics" and it's just so amazing! I'm still in shock!

Hey All I've been good today! :) Twingo31, I hope you are feeling better now. We all have crap days but hopefully you have got through yours. The fibre sure, it works, believe me it works! Lol. :8855: Amyeve, I'll be your friend on facebook. Madmum, I wish I had known about that offer...

That's fantatstic, well done Hun! :happy096:

Hey listen (I've said this many times on this thread and I'm going to say it again), if you are sticking to it 100% then you have nothing to worry about. As long as you lose...

I also want to wear a business suit with an above the knee skirt and stockings!

Letty, I hate wearing jeans at the moment cos my legs are huge. I have to wear wide leg trousers. So therefore I can't wait to wear them. I can't wait to see the difference in my clothes, I just need to be more patient which is easier said than done! Well done Annie on your success.

Thanks Letty, this diet is amazing!

Lol, in a bit Madmum55. Twingo31, I got it from Boots. It's a small branch so they didn't have the tablet form but the powder is just as good and it's tasteless.

By coming on here and seeing ordinary people (no offence lol) that have succeeded and have shared pics of themselves. Knowing that it is not impossible. The thing for me is, I tried all last year to do it and now I feel like I wasted a whole year and it's groundhog year! Smoking for me too...

Smanf, I'm 5'9" and I was only taking 3 (as advised my previous CDC) and I felt really lethargic and woke up feeling like I had a hang over. My new CDC insisted that I have to take four and now I feel so much better. I agree that if you will be doing exercises as well then maybe you shoulder...

I think you add a meal after 12 weeks. Not certain so you'll have to get this confirmed but I think at the 12 week period you have add a a meal for a week and then return. If you want to stop the diet then you gradually work your way up to food by add a meal. Does that make sense?!

Well done to you. It's threads and pics like yours that provides people like me, the purpose to continue and the ability to believe. Thanks for sharing those pics. I must remember to do the same to keep myself motivated! :)

Gem, don't take the mick! Lol. But it does work! Madmum55, I have tried this diet many times and I've failed but when the time is right for you, you will do it. I have become addicted to this site and I don't care cos it helps. Everyone on here is helpful and full of experience. There are...

That's really good news. You must feel on top of world! :character00100:

Madmum55, firstly, i really like your username and secondly, anyone can join this thread. We want everyone to be welcome here, we are all open minded and understand just how hard life can be. We don't judge although we do enjoy expressing our opinions! :rotflmao: So tell us about yourself...

Thank you all for your praises. I have no idea how I did it but I'm certainly not complaining. I am happy but I would be more excited if I could see more of a difference in my clothes. I know, it's only been two weeks but like most people, I want everything NOW!!! :mad: I have had problems...

Hey Vixster, my CDC didn't say it's bad to drink 4ltrs but she said you don't need to. 2 and a quarter pints is sufficient. Thanks all for your praises, I really appreciate it and I'm looking forward to my next WI. Not had lots of sunshine here but it is getting warmer!

Thanks so much Amyeve, I'm chuffed especially as I am on my TOTM. I have lost 25lbs in 3 weeks! :character00100: Next WI, I might even be in the 13st which will be a first in 4 yrs. I'm feeling positive and motivated. I also got told that I must have 4 shakes a day. With my height it's...

Hey All, I'm back from my weigh in. Now Before I tell you my loss, I need to explain that my previous CDC recorded my weight as 15st 3lbs. Now thee might be a difference in scales as I have a new CDC but I now weigh 14st 3lbs!. I'm no longer obese, I'm overweight! I'd never thought I'd be this...

Morning all. Debs if you win, you get the satisfaction of knowing you were right! Isn't that the best prize ever?! LOL! :rotflmao: Ros and Vixster, even if we don't have great losses, we know we are sticking to SS so therefore we have to be losing weight. It may not always show on the scales...

Lol! You are all keeping me so entertained tonight! Just thought I'd quickly say that I finally, after an awful day, I have survived day 15 of SS thanks to you guys. I hadn't been able to log on today and until I did, I was feeling down, depressed, tired, irritable and felt like giving up. When...

I haven't drunk any tea or coffee either for the same reason but also because I'm very particular. I haven't even had a choc milkshake with hot water. Can you put kettle boiled water or should it be warm? Tetras I use. Gembot, you are right. I know that I said it in the best way I...

Wow catbee, that ruly is amazing as our stats are similar and it's just given me the boost I needed today. Keep these positive posts coming along!

Hey gembots well done! :) I am having a rather crappy day. I'm feeling quite weak as my mum dragged me around the shopping centre. I just wanted to go home and as a result I feel tired. She had the audacity to say to me "I know how you feel as I have cut down on my food." I mean, really?? I got...

My sentiments exactly Debs. Hey babe, I'm glad you are doing well tonight and have not been tempted. I also feel much stronger via this site and all of you. I'm not a mushy person but I do feel like I know some of you better than my sister in law. She's a biatch by the way!:mad: Whole other...

ME TOO!

Thanks sleepybird x.

SiobhanMT please do not be disheartened. You are losing weight and that is all that matters. Yeah Vixster and it only gets better from here on in!! We can do it together! :bliss:

Hey Dextersmum, stay strong, drinks lots of water and everytime you start to get tempted, start writing a list of reasons why you want to lose weight or check out some of the reasons on here and post your own. :flowers:

Thanks for the concern but yeah she is fine thanks. Her teeth haven't come out but they are wobbly so I guess she won't be eating apples for a while! :p

I'm back on here, I really need to get a life! Has anyone noticed any difference in their appearance or clothes? I'm sure my trousers are feeling slightly looser than usual. I'd appreciate some feedback regarding this.

Great, thanks.

This sounds great. I have a wii but not a wii fit board thing. Do i need to get that first? The wii sport is a great workout on your arms!

Egg I know exactly what you mean about the dreams. I have the same nightmare every night but as you said, you wake up feeling even more determined! I experienced the same previously as I used to be addicted to class A drugs. I still often have a nightmare where I have used but wake up feeling...

Well done you! The sun always gets me motivated cos luckily even though the sun is out, it's still too cold to be without a coat. So therefore I get ecstatic that I still have time to lose the weight before the summer and I know that I am doing something about it! My little girl has had a...

You are amazing! If that was me, I'd be screwing which is why I stick to the things I know I'll like (no that's not called boring!) and can't mess up lol! :talk017:

You will be ok as long as you keep drinking your water. I've suffered from constipation and that was cos of lack of fluids.

Lol that is so funny but yet true!! The pain can be horrendous! There are fibre capsules you can buy from any herbal shop but I'm not sure if it affects SS. Does anyone know if it does? If it does then what can you take?

Jaycey you are spot on. I do want to do it this time as I know I have the right incentives. I too feel like I have finally found the diet that works for me and I think it will always somehow be a part of my life now. I'm so going to do it this time! Well done to you all!

Hey Sara, you don't get out of this that easily!! How regular are you?! Lol! :) Saraian24, have the same questions as goolian (sara). Thanks y'all! :bliss:

Don't laugh!!! He he, I have been "regular" but haven't been since Friday and when I did, it wasn't comfortable. Sorry to be so detailed! :ashamed0005: I'm so glad that I am fairly anonymous on here! Lol. :8855:
