lizzy im no expert- but shouldnt you be increasing calories not reducing them? your body has become used to it- increasing them kick starts metabolism. tc tracyxx

((hug)) thats ok, we know how easy it is to get hung up on your weight. life is for living- and sometimes it gets in the way of the weight loss journey, your happiness comes first, if you lose in a month or a year it doesnt matter, as long as you are happy doing it. please try and remember that.xxx

foodie head on here - bananas are (by some) considered a complex carbohydrate and will slow down weight loss if eaten in excess. hope this helps tx

watergirl- consider wegoshop.com brilliant! DC is great once, to expensive and over hyped IMHO. always go against the flow- find out where the EMH are, and avoid like the plague! get up early, nap and eat light. good advice for any holiday!! tx

gall stones are caused by a rapid reduction in the fat in your diet. it would be liboulous of me to say they are caused by CD - but imho, yes, they were. my bf lost 13 stone on Cd and also had gall stone problems, and as you can see from my other post they seem to be quite common. i was on...

so far, so good! 1st shake down on my ss weekend, how is everyone else doing?

Luci, i just think you are worrying about this as something you can control, rather than worrying about your exams, (something you cant control). bearing this in mind, do whatever stresses you the least. as a teacher i would say go up to 810 before your exmas, which will allow you to eat before...

im not an expert but... alli is a inhibitor, in inhibits the absortion of fat inot the body, causes cronic stomach cramps and a dodgy tummy (yes, i ve tried it on prescription) i dont see the point of taking it as there is so little fat in cd. (and its a waste of money... just mho. :D tx

i have a tatoo on my back (of tinkerbell, im a big disney fan;)) the design includes 5 stars, 1 for each stone i ve lost - when i get back to where i was, ill have it finished!) tx

morning, raquel, i can so relate to what you are saying, its a day at a time, have you considered stepping up the program and then dropping back down, rather than going straight in at ss? might find it easier? have a choc muffin to kill the choc cravings? or do what im doing and have a week off...

hi all, i ss but thats really cool as been off the diet for a week. going to carry on off the diet for a week - need to sort back out and then try again. i guess in the back of my mind i really only want to lose another 14lb, so i can do that before hols, got 14 weeks so reasonable. anyway -...
