I am not really sure which one bit has been the hardest, I really miss my food :( And my son keeps offering me food bless him, he is only five and a half and doesn't understand, he thinks he is doing me a favour as I never refused before.

Hello fellow Amanda Jane! I fell off the wagon a little :eek: but am dusting myself off and geting back on it. BAD BAD ME!!

Thanks for your support everyone, but I caved in and ate something :break_diet: But I am not going to let it get me down too much and will continue as normal tomorrow.

I am on day 3 and am really feeling it. I would kill for a burger right now :( I have been irritable all day and just don't think its fair on my family.:cry:

Hello! Well done on re starting. I am on day 3 and feel lik jacking it in already lol

Well done on your first day! I had the butterscotch one last night and I didn't like it, it had a green tinge to it which didn't help

Hi Alison, and welcome to our litle group! Wishing you all the luck in the world, don't forget we are here for you.

I would definately change if I were you. My CDC has about six loads of plastic drawers in her 'office' all beautifully labelled with which shake/tetra/bar is in each and there were so many I was spoilt for choice.

I have not stopper weeing today!! MUST HAVE BEEN ABOUT 12 times this afternoon, my DD keeps saying "wheres mummy gone?"lol

Well done Jazzy! What an achievement. Do you have and before and after pics??

well done on restaring Karen, and thanks for the fizzy water tip, will get some in the shopping.

Liking the sound of this! I have the mix a mousse and will get some flavourings on wednesday whrn I see my CDC

What you are saying about 4 months, I had that thought while brushing my teeth this morning and felt physically sick, I am sure it will get better, and I am sure the weight loss will be a great motivator.

That is phenomenal!! I would love to lose half that in my first week.

Ahhh he is lovel, we bought the kids two rabbits a few weeks ago and I have to say I am so surprised at how tame they are. I have never had rabbits before and they are just lovely. But he is definately a squidge ;)

Hi Jacey, personally I would go for the 12, but a 10 would be fAB!

Well done!! I bet it feels great!

:party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: Wow thats fantastic, well done guys

Thanks a million Trish, Can I ask, did you lose your 13lbs in your first week? If so that is fantastic!!

:wow: That is fantastic!!! Well done :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019: :party0019:

Good Luck with the op, don't forget to how us some piccies.

Totally with you on that one, I wouldn't look half as bad with a flatter tummy.

not feeling nauseas (sp?) today, but have a blocked nose, I hope this will pass. Had a niggling headache this morning, but took pain killers before it kicked in, so all in all not too bad!

Sorry you are feling so bad today, I am not too bad, I took some painkillers this morning as I had a niggling headache, my nose feels a bit blocked but apart from that I am fine. Stick with it, it will be worth it in the end!

I know what you mean, have you tried the flavourings that they sell? Might get some next time

:party0049: Yo da woman :thankyou: FAb idea, a lot cooler than cycle shorts.

oh yeah, never thought of it that way. I probably won't be thinking that at 4 am when I am runing downstairs lol

How much water have you drunk so far? I have done about 2 litres so far, still got a ong way to go

The thighs are a real problem, if I wear a skirt I have to put loads of baby powder on them, failing that I wear cycle shorts underneath :eek:

The hard part will be when i am in bed, we have a three storey house and our room is on the top, but the toilet is in the middle lol

I am feling fine now, I think I just needed to get used to all that water lol

Thank you all for your support, it is REALLY appreciated. I have had all my 'meals' now just got to finish of the water for today.

Hello everyone, how are you all getting on? I had my tetra at work and it was lovely, reminded me of frijj milkshake, which I LOVE! Just had my Veg soup, I wanted to wait till later in the evening to have it, but smelling the kids dinner got me started lol

Well done! What a great achivement!!

will drink mine as it is then, am looking forward to it now ;)

Thanks Jacey, Hope it passes for both of us. Just feel like I am going to gag ll the time.

I had a shake for breakfast, but am taking a tetra to work this afternoon. did you dilute it at all or just drink it as it is??

Thanks Sonia, It comes and goes really, sort of like waves IYSWIM I'm sure I will be fine, there are worse things than nasea ;)

Good luck to all restarters, you can do it!!

Thanks RD Will be back on as soon as I get on from work to let you know how my day is going ;)

I hope you have a great 'lunch' ;)

Well I have work this afternoon so only two hours to go, but in that time I have got to have a shower and get ready.

oh yeah, I didn't even think of that. doh!

Oh no, but just think the jumper can hide that ;) I am sure you will look great

It could be the water now you mention it, my stomach feels all swishy if you see what I mean. Might have to get up and do something to take my mind of it. ;)

Cambridge

Just think of all the lovely winter wear you can buy though, skinny jeans, chunky jumper and long boots are what I am looking forward too.

I am 5ft 7, whichc is probably why she wouldn't let me go ant lower than 10 stone and even then I had to push it. I was 10.5 stone when I got married and want to look how I did then, but wanted a buffer of a stone just in case I fell off the wagon once I got to goal.

Should ask, how tall are you?

I said 9.5 stone to my councillor and she said no :(

I am on day one and have had one shake. Surely I shouldn't feel icky already. If I wasn't on the diet I probably wouldn't have even had breakfast yet, so It can't be carb withdrawal can it??

Also looking forward to not having my thighs rub together when it gets hot lol

Well done on getting the Uni work done and good luck with the diet for this week

Hi Tracie, Of course you can join us. You are actually te same weight as me. What weight do you want to get down to? I want to be 10 stone

Morning all new starters. I have had my 'breakfast' consisting of a chocolate shake. TBH it wasn't that bad am now sipping my water.

I am looking forward to getting into my nice clothes again, not a massive thing I know, but I have so many nice things, but only and handful of items fit me at the moment and they are not really that nice either. I am also looking forward to ging into 'normal' shops where they stock nice stuff.

I did atkins diet and found it great, but I just can't get into it again which is why I ma giving this a go. Will let you know how I get on

It was a great meeting, very informal and on a one to one basis which is what I need otherwise my mind wanders lol She weighed me and talked about all the products and how each stage of the diet works. She suggested taking before and after pics, which I ws going to do anyway, but good on her...

Yaaaaaay looking good ;)

I just copy and pasted the HTML code into my signature. Not sure how many posts you need to get enough space to post one though, there is a thread that explains it all on the sticky posts.

That is fantastic Lucie!! Have a great move.

Try not to feel too bad hun, we all have bad days, as long as you get back to it tomorrow you will get there in the end.

Might have to look into it. Might be something available for september time.

:D **woot woot** You go girl!

Well done on losing an inch from your waist. Hope AAM is just as good for you

I am currently a L3 Pre school assistant, I love the job, but would love to progress to a TA

So you should be! Its a great achievement.

Hello Jaydee, Glad you decided to join us! I am also nervous, its really strange but I can't explain why. Maybe its the promise of great weight loss.

Hope your first day went well. Keep us posted.

You can hold my hand when I get stuck ;)

Just read your profile Holly, I would love to do what you do for a job. Can I ask what qualifications you need for it?

Hiya Holly, Of course you can join in hun. How are you feeling about restarting? I am very excited, but am trying not too be too optomisitc because I will be gutted if I don't lose weight which will make the situation worse as I KNOW I will eat eat eat

Well I just bought a weeks supply of shakes and soups anlong with the mousse stuff ( forgot what its called aready) and it was £36.00 definately cheaper than E bay and you know what you are getting.

Well done Stacey. You are a star :party0019:

Yaaaay more buddies ;) I am dying to try everything NOW!!! Was it thr tetra chocolate shake you tried or the powder? Will have to be patient and wait till tomorrow.

Wow you guys do loads I better get my arse in gear lol

I asked my CDC what excercise I can do while on the CD and she said " you can do what I call conversation excercise, which means its not too strenuous and you don't get out of breath, i.e you can have a conversation while doing it" So just wondering what excercise you all do. I have to...

Hello Jacey, How are you feeling about starting tomorrow. I am actually nervous, not sure why and am dreading not liking the shakes.

I remeber after having my C sction with my daughter they had to call in a big bloke to move me off the operationg table and onto the bed as non of the women could lift me. Also about 6 months after having my son I was due to be my cousins bridesmaid. I lost loads of weight for the...

I know there are three of us so far, just thought we could post on this thread so I can keep track of who you are. I am still getting used to all your names :cool:

Thats the spirit honey, good on ya!

((((hugs))) Sorry the loss wasn't great, I know is dificult by try and stick with it and hopefully it will all catch up and you will have a great loss next week. Chin up hun ;)

Excellent, thats three of us starting tomorow. Wonder if we could recruit anymore.

You have the same amount to lose as I do. Will definately be sharing my experiences with you.

Yeah that would be great!! Would love to be your weight loss buddy.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Where do I find details of the 28 day challenge?

and have got all my packs ready to start tomorrow :eek: :hide: Looking forwad to it, my CDC is going to call me on Saturday to see how I am getting on. Need to take some before pics now ;)

You will be fine, you know I would come with you if I were nearer ;)

Well done, that is amazing.

((((HUGS)))) Hope you feel better soon hun.

Hi, I can't comment on the social side of things, but I am starting CD shortly if you want a buddy?

oooh sounds lovely. Can't wait now!!

What a fantastic weight loss. **woot woot**

What is a tetra brick?? It sounds very interesting

Thanks Stacey, Am actually feeling a little nervous and excited all at the same time

:wow: That is fantastic!!!! You must be so proud of yourself hun.

Thanks MAndi, Will definately do it slowly next time. Hopefully losing weight will help too.

Well I ohpe I can lose a stone by then. Going to set myself a mini goal of two stone by my birthday which is 14th July. Do you think I can do it??

Oooooh off to look at your blog, had a sneaky look yesterday and am dying to know how your weigh in went after your TOTM post

Thanks Mandi, I am off to see my CDC tomorrow and will get loads of bottles of water on my way back :-)

Thnaks for the advice Ruth, I phoned my CDC earlier and am off to see her tomorrow morning. WoooHoooo

Thats lovely to hear, I hope you will all help me when I am about to fall off the wagon lol

And am off to see her at 9:30 in the morning!! Any words of advice on what I should ask? And which are the nicest shakes?

Wow that is fantastic!! I was a bit worried about not losing the weight. I am like you and don't have masses to lose and thought that this may affect the diet. With most other diets you only lose quickly if you have loads to lose IYSWIM But obviously not!

Thanks C, Both times I tried to come off them before I just went cold turkey, which obviously doesn't work. Will do it slowly next time.

Wow that sounds like a heck of a lot of chocs. Might start re-gifting them myself ;)

THanks Stacey, do I not need a medical examination or something?

Heres hoping, I would love to come off them, have tried twice now and have always had to go back on them.

lol Thats the thing in this line of work, just finished all the chocs we got at Christmas and now we have a load from easter, the staff room is a real danger zone lol That is a fantastic weight loss for the first week, I would be well chuffed with half of that. If I start now, I could have...

Thnaks Stacey, Think I am just going to go for it, my works mates are pretty down to earth so won't make me do loads if I am not feeling 100%

THnaks for your replies ladies. I don't have my packs yet, but starting on a friday sounds like a good idea, like you say the worst will be iver the weekend, if at all. Will ring my CDC tomorrow. How long does it take after the first meeting with them to get started??

Well done that is fantastic!!!

ooh thanks again mwah

I was planning to start the CD during half term, which is three weeks away as I have heard that the first week can be hell!. I am a Pre School assistant and will obviously be off work during half term. But reading all your threads and looking at your before and after pics makes me want to...

What a fantastic thread, I was going to start my diet during half term, but all this talk is making me want to start now!

Thanks ladies, How are you finding the diet? It looks fantastic!!

Fab Pics! Can't wait to post some of my own. Can I ask how long it took to lose 5 stone?

You look fab in those pics, a real inspirtion. Did you to exercise too, you look well toned ;)

excellent thanks!

I am a little confused by some of the posts :doh:

yaaaaay hopefully it will be no problem. I might do a search and see if I can find out more.

Good luck, will be following you progress as I am new and am wondering if it is as rally as good as it sounds. I am hoping to start on 28th ;)

Hi everyone :wave_cry: . I am hoping to start the CD soon but need to get my medical check done. I am worried that I won't be able to do the diet because I take fluoxetine. Does anyone know is it is OK to do the diet while taking these??
