    Do I need a medical before 1st appointment?

    You need medical consent to follow CD if you have a BMI of 40 or over or if you taking any medication (not including the contraceptive pill or HRT -I think) Your CDC will run through all of this with you during your first meet and if you need to have medical clearance, she will give you the...

    doc won't sign forms?

    Thanks natayou! Hopefully it won't be a problem for her as she's feeling quite excited about this now. my cdc has suggested that my Gran think about the 790 or 1000 cal plan, which she is happy to follow, so that will be in her favour when she talks to her g.p.

I seem to be sticking at around 12lbs 10/ 12 lbs 13 because i'm being good for a couple of days then giving in. :rolleyes:grrrr.... My last weigh in (last thurs) I was 12-5 so I'm desperate to get a couple of pounds below that...

    I want to thank Mars/Masterfood

    UH OH! I thought the 'demineralised whey' was ok!? I've been out buying galaxy chocs by the dozen (not literally, but have bought a few) all dated sept 07 with 'demineralised whey' in the ingredients because I was told that that was the vegetarian version. oh dear.... I'm glad to hear that...

    I couldn't quite believe it!

    I went into a George sop yesterday just for a browse around and they actally have size 4 clothes!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it...they were tiny. Sorry, still in a state of shock never seen anything in a size 4 before:eek:
  108. Bluepaws

    Size 17?!?!?!?

    You're not alone don't worry! I'm a 15 at the moment...quite annoying isn't it?!?! nevermind....keep at it and in a couple of weeks we'll definately be in the smaller size :)
  109. Bluepaws

    AT LAST!!!!!!!!

    Good luck with the start of your diet gdollery! It's even better when you have a holiday lined up... when you lose the weight you'll be able to celebrate in style in tenerife! as for the flavours, it's all trial and error...i'd get a variety if i were you. As i said before ...GOOD LUCK! :)

    RElationship between weight and clothes size...

    I'm 5' 4. At my heaviest 16st 1lb I was a 20/22 (though in denial, I was sqeezing into 18/20's...my clothes were literaly busting at the seems!) Now, at 12 and a half stone I'm a size 15! lol. Alot of my 16's are falling down and looking ridiculously baggy yet most 14's are too tight. hmph! :)

    Car Boot Sales any tips??

    I love doing carboot sales! (weather permitting!) Get yourself a 'float' ready, full of change. There's nothing worse than your first few 'customers' paying for items with 10/20 pound notes! I usually take about £15 of pound coins and 50p's and a couple of £5 notes. I don't like to price...

    I know it is soooo much harder getting back on track after the first attempt of ss'ing. I've tried so many times now.

    I've cheated quite a few times also. Just keep wondering how much weight I'd have lost by now if I'd stuck to it 100%. When I crave something, I seem to start thinking..'oh, i'll just re-start tomorrow'. NO, No, no! Good luck with the diet. If I were you I'd try your hardest to stick to it...

    I do not think you should or are actually allowed to do cd whilst breastfeeding as you will not be taking in enough calories etc Your body still needs lots of cals, vits and minerals as you provide for your baby also.
