This was my first week back on the plan i followed everything correctly i went gym 3 times this week never used my exercise points and used my weeklies on saturday because i went to see lady gaga so spent them on alcohol and a mcdonalds which i regret now. But seeings as i was crazy dancing for...

I always have a pack of mini ritz crackers in my bag! they're 3pp :-) and take away a crisp urge

I had the fish selection today, on ultimate food diary the pro points is 8 but I believe this is without the soy sauce. I had around a 1/3 of the sauce should I count it as 1 pp to be on the safe side? Thanks ;)

that curry looks so yummy, best go back to farmfoods and get a container!

When I want a really accurate weigh in I go to the weighing scales in boots, i think im going to do this from now on as i have two sets of homescales and they both read different! best to use professional machines :-)

I know! haha thats why I was so confused, i have 10 exercise points I never used so hoping I wont gain from it!

Tonight i got home at half 9 and was so tired i just quickly grabbed a special chowmein i get it from a fairly decent chinese and it contains cabbage pak choi cucumber etc and it isnt like the normal. Its a fairly big portion but even the meat looks like its been boiled by its colour texture...

I'm finding it so hard, everything Im trying its just making me queasy, I hate all the porridge, can barely drink the tetras leek and potato soup made me feel ill and I cant bare the mix your own shakes. I'm losing hope how do people continue with this diet :(:mad::mad:

Its alot like glue isnt it! Well theyre all going back today I wish theyd work on it. Dukan porridge was literally just a tablespoon of oabran and skimmed milk it tasted amazing compared to this. Im moaning because im starving ha ha

its so annoying! hopefully they'll work on changing the recipes

I love porridge so much! Its what kept me going on dukan and the porridge was literally oatbran and skimmed milk i got so excited when you can have cd porridge... Tried the maple and pecan and found it vile the flavouring they use is disgusting in my opinion of course it is so sweet and salty...

Its just lettuce tomato and cucumber! a proper english salad! haha

Ive bought a salad from m&s for lunch its 170 calories for the whole pack it has 9g carbs in it the salad cream is seperate and can be taken out but was wondering if i could count it as a tolerated food?

Ive been out all day and had to grab something from tesco express to eat as i havent had anything today all they had was ready to eat roast chicken thighs i took all the skin off and wiped the chicken with tissue do you think this is ok?

I signed up to dukandiet and seems really good and personalised, just seen what I can eat for four days and slightly worried! but excited at the same time, can anyone tell me if they remember any good recipes they used on attack? I've spent quite alot on subscribing so really want to succeed!

I weigh at home and have ww digital scales but again this week they have been so unreliable and different! every time i step on them theyre reading up to 5lb difference! I dont know why theyre so rubbish! do you reckon I should buy a new pair of scales, or do you think this might be because the...

I bought this dvd, seriously I must be really unfit because it was a killer!! I was sweating so much and after half hour of it I had to stop, this is such a good workout if only I could have done it to the end- practice makes perfect!

Went into tesco today and they may be not the best crisps in the world but they're doing 12 pack assortment for 58p! The salt & vinegar sticks are 3 points. Onion Rings & Cheesepuffs are 2 points a pack Not bad!

haha well that would be the 10.7, I might just take the 10.7 and a half then if i lose next week it will feel like more if its wrong hahaha

I follow ww online and weigh at home I have ww electrical scales got on first and it said I weighed 10.10 3/4 I knew that had to be wrong as ive been exercising and following the diet properly and weighed 10.8 3/4 last week so I checked in 4 other places in the room including the bathroom and...

thank you! will take 5 :-)

I also removed bacon x

Wednesdays are my weigh ins, I do it from home and today I weighed myself and ive lost another 2 pounds :-) im really happy because i wasnt expecting it... thing is I went out drinking yesterday night and polished off nearly a whole bottle of wine.. I was enquiring whether my weigh in is correct...

Im enjoying ww spaghetti and meatballs atm its really nice only 9 pp and filling

Hi i did 15 minutes of this and had to stop i was sweating alot! heard its great for inch loss however you probably gain quite a bit of muscle as its a fast vigorous workout

Might go doctors, if i have alot of sugar im fine... maybe its an underlying issue

Today i've been feeling light headed and dizzy, I don't understand as i've had alot to eat: Breakfast: Crumpet & Banana. Snack:Wotsits. Lunch: 2 tangerines, ww tuna wrap and curly wurly. Snack:Pineapple. Does anyone else have this? I've been fine the past 11 days just feel really dizzy today.

In the first 10 days of propoints i've lost 2 and a half pounds, i'm so happy because in this time i've gone out 4 times and drank alot of alcohol and i've had 3 mcdonalds this week... student life is letting me down! but after this loss i'm going to follow the plan strict now my lessons have...

The only downside I've heard about this diet is people that followed the discover plan religiously then changed over don't seem to be having much loss, but people starting from fresh seem to be doing really well, I've been on the diet for nearly 2 weeks and my scales are broken, I cant wait to...

I saved my points tonight and had a quarter pounder with fries it was soooooooo good!! :p

I love sweet potato and have a massive pack in the cupboard can anyone share some recipes with me please and tell me how many points the serving is thank you!:)

Try not to worry! If your staying in your points it's not a problem, everyone has cravings don't feel bad about it, I once read if you have really bad sugar cravings smell vanilla essence and they go away.. it works for me because I feel sick after smelling it hahaha so maybe try that next time...

I eat one a day.... I'll probably turn into a monkey soon!

awh thanks!

My scales have broke :(:( I had 3 balls of tagliatelle tonight... I had 20 points left of my daily allowance can someone tell me approximately how much a dried bundle of tagliatelle weighs? thanks

Hi i want to start this diet, but i dont really like milkshakes, is the forest fruit shake more fruity? than milky? does it taste more like a smoothie than something really creamy? please someone helpp!

Ok, so im craaavvving curry! like mad! has anyone got a low carb recipe ?

I'm currently on atkins and went to get an atkins bar today and saw tesco meal replacement, has anyone tried this, does it work well?

maybe i'll give it another week and start from 11'4 now and see if i lose anything, can you give me some tips as to what to eat? should i stay away more from red meat because of more calories and stick with chicken fish vegetables and salad?

Hello all, This week has been the first week i've been on the atkins. My scales first said 11.2 when i started, i weighed myself a couple of times through the week which i know i shouldnt have done, it went up to 11.56 then this morning i'm 11.4 so technically ive put on 2 pounds.! Went to...

to be honest i don't mind that, i haven't gone properly since ive been on this diet!

1. Wheres best to weigh yourself? i have scales in my bathroom but if i weigh myself on the floor in there in 3 different places, each place says a different weight so im very confused. 2.I bought some sugar free cola sweets from lowcarbstore, it says on the packet carbohydrate:98.1g of which...

I have been doing xenical since monday, i have been exercising loads. Ive biked about 20 miles on the exercise bike these past four days and my diet has been good. I cheated on the scales and weighed myself after 4 days and nothings change, is it not good to do this? or have i simply not lost...

Hi, i just bought xenical online received yesterday, has anyone had much success using it, how different is it to alli?

Admittedly i havent been eating an awful lot. My general day would be a blueberry muffin for breakfast. banana and yoghurt for lunch and maybe a bowl of vegetables then for dinner few potatos meat and vegetables but its been just under a week and ive lost 5lbs so im very pleased. I'm going to...

you two have made me feel so much better thank you! im not weighing myself until next week now, :-) x

Lately, i have just been eating healthy food and not sticking to a so called diet. I weighed myself friday and i went out drinking yesterday but only had vodka sodas and lime and all i had to eat that day was a bit of steak and half a cheese and pickle sandwich, i felt really fat today and so i...

Confused about healthy extras I have purchased a slimmers world ebook, but i think some of it is missing. I have read some food diaries and wholemeal bread & milk is mentioned on peoples healthy extras, but theres nothing about bread or milk on my green healthy extras list, could anyone clarify...

ahhhhhhh im so glad other people feel it too, let me know how much youve lost tomorrow good luck!!

I feel like ive eaten so much in these past few days, normally more than i would have eaten im worried that i wont lose any weight, has anyone else had this feeling??

I have the healthy extras list but what are healthy extras a and b? im so confused it hasnt got it on my ebook... also, is as much fruit as you want allowed on original days too?

Im confused, i had marmite on toast today for lunch it was weightwatchers bread but ive seen some people count bread as healthye extras can someone explain because i counted it as a syn?

Hi I got a slimming world ebook and started. Today ive had a punnet of raspberrys a banana and marmite and weightwatchers bread then for dinner i had a vegetable stir fry does it matter how many syns you have? like a certain amount to start off with?

I really want to start slimming world all the other diets havent seemed to work but im a student with really really little money and fees are too expensive for me at the moment can someone give me the basic guidelines of how you do this diet? im willing to purchase the information off of you via...

i know this seems a bit dreamy but is there any foods that make you feel full up even if theyre low calorie, im enjoying being on weightwatchers but i feel really empty

awh thanks so much laney, :-)

I love dessert and sweets and chocolate and biscuits! can anyone recommend sweet snacks that are low in points! everytime i have a cup of tea i just have an urge for chocolate! so annoying.

i dont think you would put on weight, just make sure you have enough points for the weight your at atm! good luck, im kind of the same i found the cambridge diet too hard and all i liked was the mint chocolate shake, and after 2 weeks i got extremely fed up with that! i hope ww goes well for you.

:)I think im following old weightwatchers guides ive found on the internet, is fruit 1 point or 0.5 points because everywhere i read its saying something different? thank you!

hi paula, im just going to look on ebay! :-)

to be honest, i dont know any that have worked, but ive ordered a trail pack for 3 days called nowslim off ebay, my friend used nowslim and it worked for them, so im giving the trial a go just to see! its only £4.99 for 3 days so not alot of money to lose if it doesnt

oh yes that makes sense sorry, im a bit slow haha!

Breakfast- Tesco LC date and walnut cake. Tea with Skimmed Milk Lunch- Tesco Light choice vegetable lasagne with salad. Snack- Muller Yoghurt. Dinner- Lamb Slice Potato and Lots of veggies Breakfast- 2 slices of bread and an egg lunch- low fat cheese and pickle sandwich with a peach and an...

im 11 stone now, so i wouldnt drop until it reaches 10? x

I really love biscuits so bought weight watchers chocolate chip cookies, 2 for 1.5 points and they come already in packs of 2 so theres a less chance of snacking on more and theyre yummy especially dipped in tea!, weight watchers light mayonnaise has no points in it so i use this instead of...

does this include the chocolate ice gems aswell, or arent we so lucky?!

I was like you, i started cambridge and kept to it for less than a month but i knew truthfully i couldnt live on it for any longer, im so rubbish at sticking to diet, but weightwatchers is great because you can really eat what you want in moderation, youll be fine and the groups are really...

When do you start decreasing points, every week? :wave_cry:

Hi , i started weightwatchers a couple of months ago and i lost my booklets i have been working out my points online etc but i think its wrong as ive bought weightwatchers products with points on them and then rechecked them with my online calculator and its completely wrong, has anyone got any...

This is my 5th day on the 790 diet although i have stuck to it i have missed approx one meal a day because i couldnt drink it and i havnt got that much weight to lose so i think its taking strain on my body this morning i woke up what it felt like to be a hangovr my head was so heavy and was...

on the 790 your allowed 3 tablespoons of the following: Gren Salad, Cucumber Celery spinach turnips chinese cabbage broccoli cauliflower or any cabbage asparagus fennel and celeriac. And your allowed 250 g plain cottage cheese or 325g reduced fat cottage cheese as a protein along with poultry...

ahhh stacey dont give in, your doing soo well!! i just think about really lovely clothes and drink lots to get rid of hunger i know this sounds the devil but i dont mean it to be: If your really really craving pizza and you know in your mind your going to go to the pizza shop, have a slice of...

iit is still a loss and you should still be proud , especially as its your totm im always a couple of pounds heavier when its that time for me, just be positive and next week youl do even better!

i dont really know, it makes me feel really bloated really quickly and its just the fact that i dont like the taste of them too so id rather have nothing than finish the whole thing.

I had a toffee and walnut shake today i didnt mind it at all but i still couldnt finish it i find it so hard! and as youy have to drink it within 15 minutes i sincerly cant as hard as i try!! :( i dont want to waste any more shakes throwing them down the sink!!!

ah h yaaayy im on 790 even tho im having lower calories than that as i end up throwing at least 1 shake down the sink everyday! im a tea addict so its a good sign for me!

I was just wondering why tea and coffee has to be black? as you have a skimmed milk allowance and also ive heard your only allowed to have one tea / coffee a day, why is this ( if its true)

its awful that your feeling like this, me personally thinks it is to do with the diet. If you had seen the Louise Redknapp documentary race to size zero, she got very very ratty and her husband and kids didnt want to spend much time with her, i get really angry when i dont eat too! However i...

its just the fact i hated the tastes, i messed around with recipes too i tried to make a banana muffin and that just tasted like salt!!!! and a yuky banana taste

i got given : banana- i cant really drink this i gag . Tomato- i cant drink this either. Vanilla- this was one of the worsts. Cappuchino- the worst out of th bunch. I could drink chocolate fine. I also have: Strawberry Chocolate Mint Toffee & walnut Vegetable and Chicken & Mushroom soup I...

Its my second day on the cambridge diet, i must be a fussy eater because im finding most of the shakes ive tried too much to stomach. Yesterday i ended up having 1 chocolate shake because i hated the tomato soup and the vanilla shake. So i had 1 shake and a meal from the 790 program. Today i...

i think i saw your earlier thread about worrying that you hadnt lost weight because you ate out at restaurants, if it was your post youve done so well to lose 5lbs i hope i lose as much on my first weigh in :):):)

Is it ok to freeze shakes as id prefer to eat the vanilla shake as like a block rather than a shake? :confused:

maybe ill try it again with loads of coffee put in do you have it hot or boiling? , is the toffee and walnut shake nice?

I was really positive this morning and thought i would try a cappuchino shake hot so it would be like a coffee. I was so wrong i first got physically put off because it was a weird greeny brown but then i thought take no notice try it ( it smelt really nice) god it tasted awful! i tried to...

ive heard the soups are a bit dodgy, my councillor gave me a few spicy tomato and ive heard nothing but bad about them :(:(

Im new to the cambridge diet and dont really know alot about the flavours tell me your worst and best flavours :-)
