HHEEELLLLPPPPPP..... Since Easter I have not been doing so well on sf. My excersize has more or less gone down the pan...although my diet isnt doing too badly, but my main problem is lack of appetite, so I am majorly under eating...but when I think about food I feel sick! some days i only have...

Cheerysabs, thats great on your excersize and if you keep going with the diet and excersize then you WILL loose weight. If you are quite new to excersize then muscle does weigh heavier than fat, and it does take a few weeks well you muscles are toning up for the loose to show on the scales as...

oooh cherrysabs hun...try not to feel deflated with it all. Its probably your body getting used to the diet and adjusting to its new calroific intake. How much water are you drinking and are you taking excersize into your programme as well??

hi Linda, hoorah for throwing out your size 18's - that must have felt amazing...good for you hun. I have decided against wearing my size 12's just yet, til I have a better profile in them...still got a muffin top, but 6 weeks ago I had a huge muffin top in my 14's too...so couple more pounds...

Thank you soooo much for your support, you have helped me soo much everyone. I have had a much better day today thank you. I have taken the advice not to weigh in tomorrow, as am gonna have a pretty stressful morning as it is, so dont need the added 'downer' if not lost - plus am PMTing at the...

hi hun, I too am having a stressful time of it at the moment, and have had a shockingly bad week diet wise! But to top of all the other stress I am now suffering major guilt about my diet - or lack of it. One of the lovely people on here advised me, if you feel that you have done that badly...

Hi fellow sfers - I have had a rather bad week. :sigh: I am incredibly stressed out with one thing and another, but til this week i have managed to stick quite succesfully and not comfort eat:) - which is my MAJOR diet problem. But this week has gone majorly wrong. I am in need of reminding...

Hi Stirky and welcome to the boards...congrats on your loss, thats fantastic...you'll be at your ultimate goal in no time xx

Hi Saraian, I havent done that, but so long as your tea is 600 calories ish you should be fine, thats all that slim fast requires. Make sure you drink plenty of water and try to have yor snacks each day (three of upto 100 calories each) I am a fine one to talk about snacks, as I am terrible...

well done everyone. Final March weigh in for me. End of my first month on sf and I have lost another 1lb today, which is 6lb in 4 weeks - talk about chuffed!! Bring on April xx

hi there wannabeslim and netuk, we are all very similar heigh and weight, so I wondered if maybe I could join you both in being diet buddies? I have tried all sorts of things to shift the weight, but had succes years ago with sf and so decided to go for it again this time. Tomorrow is the end...

Hi Flubber - I dont work shifts anymore, and when I did I didnt do slimfast...but if it were me I would defo have two shakes and snakes through the night - I think I would pretty much treat my night as a new day, if you know what I mean. You can not go 25 hours on so little intake, especially...

well, I have one more weigh in to go for March challenge - but seeing as I have reached the target I set - yipeeeeee...I am more than ready to step up to the next one! I am going to say 5lb for the month again - that would be way more than I could hope for - would be soooo chuffed to shift...

hi girls - nikkinak and piggywiggy....welcome along. I havent been on here that long, but couldnt do it without this board, its great! look forward to chatting to you both some more soon xx

thanks newme - i guess i am just looking for a quick fix...but i know honestly that there is such a thing...but doesnt stop me wondering. - well done on losing 9lb - thats excellant!

Hi hun, well firstly I hope I speak for us and say that even if you did stop sf in favour of something else there is no rule to say you have to leave the board....I for one would still love chatting to you. I think you know in your head that you want to go down this other route, but your looking...

Hello fellow sfer's...how are we all doing this fine Sunday morning? What has everyone got planned today? Iam off down to the mother in laws for a delicious sunday lunch...but that does mean I have to have my shake for tea, which I dont like as its a long time from lunchtime today til tea time...

:p hi, just wanted to say hello. I have finally been granted a profile photo, so here I am for the world to see:bliss: Now just need to figure out how to do other photos, so people can see me before - and eventually an after....but dont in anyway need to worry about that, I still have 20lb to go...

hi, well as the title suggest I just wondered if anyone allowed themselves to have food treats while dieting...like tonight for me I am having a takeaway.....cos I did well this morning, and fully intend to be back on the 600 calorie evening meal thing tomorrow...but tonight I am not counting...

hiya i try to drink between 2 - 3 litres of non added sugar dilute juice, plus I have at least one cup of tea, and probably one can on coke zero or diet pepsi!

Morning all..1lb lost today, quite pleased, we are moving in the right direction!!

Great idea Lind, I hadnt thought before what I would do, but I am going on holiday in September, so I guess my treat would be a really nice bikini (eek) or swimsuit if not comfortable with bikin, and some nice shorts..as I dont feel confortable in shorts at the moment. What sort of tattoo do you...

Thank you sarah, not easy for you to tell me iam sure, but i really do appreciate your open and honesty..thank you. Will post on here when I eventually get the results. I really hope LL works this time round for you, and good news on getting down to 12 stone, thats certainly something to be...

wow..that many, its more common than you realise. My mother in law said today, well if you do have it you may as well give up on the diet, as you'll never loose the weight....so now iam determined all the more...whether i do or dont,....i will lose this weight if it damm near kills me....i hate...

thanks for all the messages girls, its great reading all your stories and I really feel like I am starting to get to know you all...which is great. Its easier to chat to people you 'know' sometimes..lol....

Morning fello sfers...how are we all today? Well I thought I would tell you a little more about myself today...my name is claire, iam 28, my husband Richie is in the RAF and we currently live in Fife, Scotland, which is home to Richie (so we have babysitters aplenty on the doorstep...woooh hooo)...

Thank you everyone...I dont find out if I indeed do have an under-active thyroid until the end of next week, nurse couldnt get me in to do bloods til thursday and then have to wait a week for the results. Iam not too worried, my nan has an under-active thyroid, so I know that once the meds are...

Thanks Lind...bless ya, I knew I could count on you girls to gee me up....I just on a downer today. You've done really well - is that all down to sf..i just read your stats, and you lost 43lb, thats brill! We have about the same to lose I think, similar target weight....thank you

hi everyone, having a bad day today, although this has not caused me to reach for the crisps thankfully. I have wondered for a while about my thyroid, but today went to the docs about something and she said she suspects I have an under-active thyroid! So on thursday I have to go back to see the...

hi everyone, I wondered if anyone on here had been diagnosed with an under-active thyroid? I have suspected for some time that I have this problem (its in my family etc etc) and went to the docs today, and she is doing bloods on me on thursday to see if this is a problem for me...get the...

hiya girls...am doing fine today, not snacking or obsessing about food etc..but feel REALLY low today....got it into my head that I am never gonna shift the weight, think my meeting at the docs has really upset me..(see seperate post)...just feel low, feel like iam gonna be fat forever and i...

Madmoo, I have just noticed that our start weight was the same, and our goal weight is the same...and our goal date are a day different...you probably think I am bizarre now, i promise iam not, but I appear obsessed with finding out how everyone else on here is doing, so read their stats all the...

hiya madmoo and welcome. Congrats on the fantastic weight loss so far, I am hoping for similar results! This is my second week on sf, and I am enjoying it and surprisingly feel quite full, but I am seriously missing crisps and choc! Look forward to chatting to you soon

Good morning ladies (and any lurking guys..as was pointed out yesterday...I do apologise) Well woke up this morning feeling positive, its gonna be a great diet day today...not a raisin in sight! :cool: Well gonna rush off and get my 3 year old ready for pre-school, then on the plan is housework...

well today I thought I had done really well, very low cal tea, only had my two shakes and appropriate snacks :p...but have just learned that what I thought was a good snack turns out to be really high in calories. Well I can not put into words how gutted I am, this week was gonna be my...

hello ladies....I have had a little idea.:p..some days I just want to chat to people doing sf..or a diet, or basically anyone who is trying to resist eating, and loose weight...but dont necessarily have a question - or an answer....so wondered if anyone fancied a 'daily chat'...

just wanted to say welcome to everyone, and really hope to chat to everyone soon..good luck

So pleased you were able to relax and enjoy your meal without anything horrible hapening to you hun. When I first started taking the tabs (aug 08) I got very few symptons, so I decided to 'test' them...lol..kinda shot myself in the foot, cos ever since then they have given me side affects...i.e...

wow, thats excellant, good for you hun..keep up the good work :-)

hi hun, firstly have a lovely time, but I have to agree, on days when I have skipped my tabs so as to enjoy a higher-fat meal that should really have I have still had a little orangey poo (sorry tmi) the next day. I think if the tablets have been in your system for a few days they do take a few...

hiya hun....you ALWAYS weigh more at nighttime than you do in the morning - which is why its so important to keep to a regular time with your weighing! I think your totally right about the scales being different yesterday morning to last night, it will be because of our water/evening meal. Try...

wow...thats fantastic...wish I had taken my measurements before I started sf...what a great idea....good for you hun

well done everyone, thats brilliant news :-)

woop woop...3lb off this week...am soooooo pleased, cos apart from one horrendous diet day I have been mega strict....who else has weighed today?? lets hear from ya ;-)

hiya ladies, well uped my water today, and have felt less bloated...I too think its the huge increase in dairy, as I am doing two shakes a day...when I am only used to milk in tea or coffee!....fingers crossed if I keep taking on more water this should help...i hope! thanks again for your advice

woop woop woop...congratulations hun....thats inspiration to all of us...good for you

lmffao Alli, I can just picture you everytime you get an attack of the munchies reaching for the knitting needles....know what your family and friends will be getting this christmas!! lol. But seriously its a brilliant suggestion, and I just need to learn to not obsess about food, find something...

hi, can I just ask, I feel horrendusly bloated, and its showing. I feel like I am retaining water badly...but am being really strict...anyone else had this?

my absolute fav at the minute is crackerbread -19calories per one...so you can afford to put something on top, if you wanted, but I love mine plain! yummy yummy

hi, I have been on sf for a week and one day so far, and yesterday was seriously bad for me. But back on track today! I just wondered from the more seasoned sf of you...does it get any easier...i.e all i can think about is food, its on my mind from the minute i get up to the minute i go to bed...

Brilliant idea, my goal this month is to loose 5lb and stick to my excersize plan...all month! Have a girly weekend early april, so I NEED to loose about half a stone by then - april 10...but if I could get 5lb of that off this month I would be so happy

thank you Sparklewings, thats brill advice...will give that a go now. Thank you xx
