Hi - just did the fit test and my results are not great: Kicks - 35 Squats - 33 Kness - 50 Jumps - 18 Globe jumps - 6 Suicide jumps - 7 Power jacks - 10 Obliques - 21 Hoping to improve asap

I have just completed the fit test - I felt sick by the end of it. So hope that the next test in two weeks shows some improvements.

Ooo if you've giving any away I'd love the zumba or any davina ones (but reckon you should keep them...a is the queen!)

The beauty of spinning is you are only competing against yourself...change the resistance as you get fitter

Hi - I'm polgara36 on MFP. Started about 3 weeks ago when I hit 15st. Never been this weight before and at 5ft 1" it's putting a lot of strain on my knees. I lost 4 stones about 15 years ago and it's slowly crept on - for some reason I really cannot see that I'm overweight when I look in the...

OK...had a lovely break but have a holiday in 5 weeks time...and lots of packs left over from my last time. So re-started today and will get an appointment with my CDC Not felt too bad today...just weary but thats from burning the candle at both ends! Plus GP thinks my thyroxine needs upping...

I'm rejoining today too - lost 2.5 stone, put 7lbs back and still have another 2 stone to lose....so back on SS

Well finally back, clean, and mostly caught up on my sleep....and first day back on CD. Not looking forward to it tbh - but have to get that Glasto 7lbs off and on to the 10 stones area. Must be strong, must be strong

Hi - I'm not too far from you - I'm in Shipley and my CDC is great. If you need her details then pm me. Good luck with the journey

Feeling pretty rough - and also restarting after a four day break. Got mouth ulcers, blocked sinuses etc. Dosing up on lemsip tablets etc but wondered about cough medication and normal lemsips. Will they affect ketosis etc?

Well had a great weekend at a festival - had thought I'd stay on CD over the weekend. However, fell off the wagon totally - real ale etc. Total damage at the moment is 4lbs but have restarted again. Not looking foward to the next few days.

Had my first frozen tetra...and was yummy! But felt v cold so decided to go for a bath...which was good, until I stood up to wash my hair...and felt very woozy. Felt like I was having palpatations but in my neck - very odd sensation. Managed to get out and had to lie down...still feel a bit...

OK...had 3 weeks now of 1lb losses.....so need to stop fooling myself that the spoonful of mustard, a prawn here or there won't do any harm. Going to reduce the number of bars too as think they are making me want to eat more.

Well..for my stats here I used my official WI, but I weigh each morning and use that as my 'proper weight' - as its about 4lbs lighter :D (and also means I've broken into the 11s)

I've actually found I've lost less in the last few weeks....when I've not been able to exercise. Tho...I have been nibbling....which I also think is linked to not exercising. Think it depends on what you did before SS

LOL...I actually have the porridge at least twice a day...sometimes three times! But there again I could eat normal breakfasts at all times of the day.

OK....so how fast will I know how much damage I've done this weekend? Had friends visiting...and did v well...right up to yesterday evening when I ended up having a couple of lagers, couple of crisps and some curry (chicken tikka and some veg) and then had some cheese when I got in!!! Did enjoy...

Im trained in aromatherapy massage (not just the 'salon type tickle/relaxation stuff' but muscle relaxation) and really want to train in deep tissue massage - its a totally different technique and would be very good whilst dieting as it will help with muscle definition, lympatic drainage and...

hmmm...its interesting - so weight training is the way

I'm a keen bodypumper and whilst it may have slowed my losses (21lbs in 5 weeks) I need the exercise for other health reasons...and I love it (well once I finish a class). Another key issue for me is to protect my lean muscle - I've worked hard for it.

Maybe my exercising has slowed down my weightloss but 21lbs in 5 weeks suits me fine. I do weights/spin not just because I want to tone up but want to ensure that I get fitter the more I lose.

I know that CD is a VLCD which Atkins isn't but as both aim for ketosis are there any other similiarities. I always struggle on a Wednesday but especially today as I'm sure I've only lost 1/2lb so far this week which added to last weeks 1lb is getting me down. I had hoped to lose 1 stone...

Bah..don't think I can drink plain water all the time. Cant drink coffee either as it makes me sick IndigoMondays - I exercise most days and don't really suffer too much - though did so a spinning class and body pump combo on Sat (2 hrs total) - felt ok at the time but then felt weak later on...

Just back from a 10 mile bike ride - we stopped at a pub along the way and had a drink...which leads to my question. What can I drink? I know its bad but had a blackcurrant and soda. I can't drink fizzy water on its one, even adding the water flavours makes me think of andrews and hangovers...

OK...its my second week on CD, and also TOTM and feeling pretty crap which is unusual for me ...well on the TOTM point lol (snapped OH/SS's heads off when I came in from work). Now it might be a side affect of either but...ahem...noticed I was a bit wiffy in the underarm area today :cry: It was...

Well after the longest week I've had in a long time had the first results: 8lbs! Yay...now onto the next week

Just had to have my vegetable - totally craving salmon at the moment. Wahhhhh...seeing my CDC on Friday (if I make it to then) but might have to do SS+ as I'm ok all day but having miserable evenings every day

Hmm...ok...managed to get through three days 100% but was driven mad by the sunday roast....so ended up having some ground black pepper/chilli just to have a strong taste in my mouth! I'm turning into a weirdo :D ...but actually sat at the dinner table with family/friends to eat my...

Hi - I love Bodypump (do it three times a week). The class is weights based, but is more about repititions than lifting as much as you can. The instructors are all v good and if you're new they let you know what weights to start with, you then build up from there as you progress. There is a...

Just back from a body pump session - only on day 2 and was a bit concerned that I might get a bit faint but was good.

Ahhh you need to go to Glasto! Best food in the world....and so much choice. Of course you can get the usual burger vans etc but we've never done that as we like to wander and we like to try stuff - even the vegan stuff was good :D The main impetus for me starting CD was trying on my Glasto...

Oooo - I've actually got Glastonbudget (think festival but with tribute bands) before Glasto but aiming to be well on my way by then....hopefully (bit :eek: about not drinking then though)

Off to Glastonbury, Latitude and Leeds...well money permitting (already bought G tickets). Which V?

Well just had a porridge...and it wasn't bad at all....

Thanks! I'm still in two minds...but still going to contact a CDC...

Ok..have just come back from holiday an additional stone heavier (now officially my heaviest ever). Really upset as I'd lost 3.5 stone and over the past 5 years its kept back on a lb at a time til I'm back where I started Need to take control back so thinking of CD. Was considering starting...
