PS - many people wont mention your weight loss, particularly if you have been overweight for some time???? WHY NOT.... Well again this is my theory................... Everyone feels secure with a big friend/cousin/sister-in-law/niece/daughter-in-law..... For some profound reason when we lose...

Ok - here's my advice...... FIRSTLY - you need to get your grey matter around the fact that SS+ and or 810 is neither cheating or failing, the losses are perhaps 1-2lbs a month different.... SO ..... IF by having that small meal OR extra pack it keeps you on track - how is that cheating...

Yey - well done US! xx xx

Hi hun you have choices, you can buy the Tetra packs which are already mixed, chocolate, strawberry or banana - they tend to be very creamy and I find them rather rich BUT others adore them. I used my shakes as latte or mocha coffees for the 1st week then went straight to then having them as a...

.................. :badmood::badmood::badmood: Sorry Flutterbies I've stayed in my diary - scales didn't budge! BLOODY THINGS! I am currently in denial about it all & pretending that its not week 3 and that I havent been weighed and that I havent not lost anything.... Well done tho...

....... Its all about 'changing those habits'... I too am a tv muncher, bottle of wine then pop backwards & forwards to the kitchen cupboards & fridge! I am trying to change all this and learn to watch the tv without it all - its not easy so when I feel the need to pick, I usually pop in here! xx

I'm ok Witchy! Booked Harry Potter tickets for weekend after next... My daughter's back from her trip to Wales (camping for 8days) so you can only imagine the washing!:family2: I'm just spending the weekend chillin xx xx

This diet has all sorts of options and I think that its toooooooo easy to automatically put yourself in the unsuccessful catagory for not following SS.... The most successful CD's actually SS for a short period and step up the plans to lose their weight! You often find that if you SS to goal...

Oh bless HANG IN THERE!... I think day 3 & 4 are the toughest! BUT after that its such a short space till your 1st WI when you will get the 1st big loss & incentive to spur you onto the next week! By the end of week 2 the worlds your oyster! You can get through the weeks and weekends! Have a...

Well it def sounds like a little attention thingy! Especially if he will eat cake, I know that at the time with my daughter she wouldnt eat food but would eat jelly babies! How about not giving him quite as many choices & actually telling him that there is nothing else to eat that evening (hide...

Poor thing! Keep your fluids up tho hun! Specially on the diet, in the heat with a poorly tum! xx

Morning Lady B I dont think a '4th' meal in the form of a bar is even close to being a 'blip'.... I have had a couple of days where I have had to have 2 bars due to being away from house/blenders etc (I dont like the tetra's so they're not an option)... The only down side was that I had a bit...

Mirrors a lot of my life B, but I cannot go to the gym, a) funds (single parent) b)work 10hrs a day + 2hrs travelling - both of which may sound like excuses but really arent, I love aerobic classes but just cant justify them. When I've lost a couple of stone I am going to take up walking...

I am a 24/7 grazer.... Well actually thats not entirely true, if I am on a'binge' which can last a weekend or weeks, I try and eat as little as possible til about 4pm & then spend the entire time eating & picking, never allowing myslef to feel full up until I am obviously overfull! I am 100% an...
