Hey! I'm starting s&s tomorrow and decided to start a diary to try and keep myself motivated! I've done a couple of vlcd before and only seem to get to around 21lbs loss before I give up! The best loss ive had was when I last did a diary on here (around 2010!) I'm going to give myself some...

Not been updating much this week, been down visiting family in Glasgow. Had such a great weekend and the weather was so nice! Mumof5 - Thanks hun for the supporting words, i've decided that in May, I will move down to my parents house for the summer with my partner commuting to see us at the...

Right well after faffing around on this diet for the last few weeks, i've decided to just restart and go right back to week 1 again. Looking back over my diary, I was so motivated so I don't know what happened. I think that once I came off it at my parents house, I just really struggled getting...

Thanks hun, I really hope so!! xx

Day 37 - and day 3 back on the wagon 100%! I'm quite chuffed today, I've just stepped on the scales and already lost 7lbs! Hopefully I'll lose a bit more before WI so that it will make up the 8lbs gain and give me some extra pounds lost on top of that! Just been to a softplay space with my...

Day... 36? I think! Yesterday went absaloutely fine, didn't feel hungry atall, had all my water. This morning just had my shake and filled up my water jug, havent had any headaches atall (I've probably jinxed it now!!) In my household, we're all following different diets! I'm doing...

Hey chick, how are you doing? you're totally right about the diet being too expensive for blips! Need to remind myself of that!! xx

Thanks guys, I never realised how hard it would be to get back on this diet once you come off it for even just a few days! I've been struggling loads getting back on it but just phoned my CDC and after a bit of a pep talk lol, I'm officially back on the wagon! :D Just filled up my big water...

Just typed a massive diary on this then my computer shut down.. sooo annoying! Well this week was a bit of a disaster! I visited my parents at the weekend, they live about 2 and a half hours away from my house. On the saturday, My Dad asked to borrow my carkeys as he had to move my car...

Day 24 Feeling so yuck and bloated! but think its cz I've got my TOM at the moment, so not very hopeful for a big loss this week! My first since having my now 1 year old as I went straight on the implant once he was born!! Coped well when my mum and sister were here, just sipped on my...

Day 22 - Just had a peek on the scales and i've lost 2lbs since yesterday, so my little bits of chicken did nothing! :) Had my malt toffee bar (that and the choc orange are def my favourite ones) Did wii fit for an hour this morning and burned lots of calories and now I'm away to go and clean...

oh no...when making my OH's dinner tonight, I was using cooked chicken (the cold cooked chicken that you can get in packs from asda) and I ended up picking at it and ate 4 little pieces! I was doing so well, I've been completely 100%! Will this take me out of ketosis?? Have I ruined it for...

Hi chick, Don't worry, just put it behind you! Glad you enjoyed them but shame you were so ill! Ohwell, least it's out your system now and you can remember back for next time how angry you are that you slipped. 3 weeks is no time atall, you'll look fab at your henny!! xxx

Hi Sonya, I'm looking to loose 5stone aswell..How are you finding it? I'm on day 20 and have lost 17lbs so far and will find out tomo at WI how I've done this week. I've really surprised myself as I thought that I would never be able to manage to resist food but I'm pleasantly shocked at myself!

Day 20! woohoo.. I'm in the 20s! Just emailed my CDC with my order for the week! Feeling so much better today :) Very positive and motivated! Just read through my diary and reminded myself that this past week and a half, I have been 100% on my sons 1st birthday and party and also during...

Hey! You're doing fab! I'm on day 17 too.. have you measured yourself? whenever the scales aren't moving, I always measure myself and get pleasantly surprised by how much inches are lost :)

well done on the loss! I'm starting 30 day shred today, I've done it before and it was hard! but i'm a bit lighter now so hopefully it will be a bit easier!! at least we're doing it at the same time so can motivate each other!! :) Xxx

yep, lost 4lbs! wasn't expecting it as my scales just hadn't moved all week but I guess it must have all just come off on WI day lol. I know you shouldn't check the scales everyday but I cant help it lol. How did you get on?? xxx

Good luck! You've done the diet successfully before, you can do it again! :)

Thanks guys :) xxx Day 16 - had an awful past couple of days! My little boy became really poorly and we had to take him to hospital on tuesday night and he was kept in for the past 2 nights.. Home now and back to his old self now (as I type, he is removing each dvd from the shelf 1by1 then...

Thanks guys xxx Well day 13! still 100%, managed to get through the party and no one noticed I wasn't eating which was good as I didn't have to explain the diet. I was tidying away food at one point and my uncle came over and said "you still munching?" so they must of thought I was eating lol...

Heya, oh I know what you mean, the scales have only moved slightly for me too, so unmotivating when your doing this diet! but like you say, a loss is a loss! :) Good luck for dress fitting! And hope you feel better, the 1st after baby is def the worst!! xxx

Day 10 - yay in double figures! Well yesterday, managed to stay 100% whilst watching everyone else eat my favourite type of pizza, some icecream and chocolate cake! I just busied myself with serving everyone else and feeding my son..cant believe I managed lol.. next challenge, his party...

Thanks guys, I'm really chuffed with the 13lb loss! xxx mum of 5 - thanks chick, yesterday was soo hard. I kept trying to talk myself out of the diet and justify having a slice of pizza lol, but managed to stay 100% and actually forgot to have one of my shakes! Just kept reminding myself why...

Glad your feeling better. woohoo you've done a whole week! Good luck for weigh in tomorrow! :)

Just away to have dinner.. i'm so hungry!! I've been hungry all day... I thought ketosis was supposed to stop you from feeling hungry? I've drank about 3L today to try and fill me up but It isn't working! Probably didn't help that i've just gone food shopping for my sons 1st birthday...

Day 8 is here now.. officially on my 2nd week! which means only 11 weeks left on ss (Well that's the plan anyway! will see how I feel at the time).. this week has flown by, so if it all goes that way then i'll be happy! So i've bought lots of shakes and peanut and cranberry bars for this week...

End of day 6.. usually during the days I'm fine, but coming home and not joining in with dinner is getting harder each day, even though i'm not even hungry! Apart from that, all good today. Took my son a walk in his pram around the park, as weather was so nice today! Was so warm, I...

This week, I'm meeting CDC on tues so will be weighing myself tomorrow, first thing in the morning! :) (My CDC doesn't weigh you, so told me to weigh myself the morning that I'm meeting her) Indeed, we will be skinny minnies before we know it!! :D Aw getting baba weighed, thats a nice day...

Just had the urge to make some food, so made my OH some toasties! didn't feel the need to eat them! just wanted to make some.. i'm mad lol OH wasn't complaining though :D.. roll on day 6 tomorrow!!

yay, that's great that you're finally in ketosis! How are you finding the packs so far? I think I'm only a day ahead of you! Hope your back feels better soon! :)

haha, I had one of those dreams too apart from it was that I made lots of cheese toasties then sat and ate them, then woke up in the morning panicking that I'd ruined the diet lol.. well done surviving first weekend :D, I was the same.. didnt know weekends could exsist without takeaways/meals...

hiya! Yip, I'm still 100%.. can't believe it, quite surprised at myself lol! Its getting alot easier with each day that goes past I'm finding.. and so glad the first weekend is over! We'll be at week 12 in no time!! :D Managed to get out for a wee walk for an hour with the pram, was great! hope...

End of day 5... and end of weekend number1! Didn't think it possible to go through a weekend without takeaways/wine or fryups in morning - but it is! :) woke up in a really positive and up beat mood about everything.. then by dinner all I wanted to do was eat eat eat! Made some scrambled egg...

yeah I had that too with onion rings! I've only ever had onion rings once and that was a couple of years ago and I never even liked them.. then the other day, they were the only thing on my mind lol! yeah I'm feeling great today, much better than the last few days! and don't feel hungry which...

know what you mean about the weekend takeaways! was a weird first weekend lol. Ive had the leak and potato soup which tasted like leak and potato soup but the texture was alot thinner! And ive had spicey tomato soup which was fine... I'm not really a fan of the savoury things of cambridge.. at...

Hiya, don't worry about the thai green curry, just put it behind you and move on to start fresh today! :) Also if you need to have diet coke, just have coke zero.. my CDC told me that she drank it whilst she was ss and it didn't affect anything. Hope your feeling better today! I'm on day 5...

Your doing fab! mmm cajun chicken panini... youve got my mouth watering now lol... Well done resisting!! Least we know they'll be there when we've done! :) Good idea not buying clothes till your at a 14, that's my plan too! Hope you enjoy your walk, its soo nice today, might take the buggy...

ahh that makes sense, Thanks! I know, definately feeling more motivated now after seeing the results for the first time! ooh our WI is on the same day, will definately pop by your thread to see how you got on!! xx

your looking fab, what an inspiration! well done you!! :) xx

wooo day 5!! And I woke up feeling lighter this morning and seeing a slight change in myself! can't wait for WI on tues! I had a look at my measurements today and ive lost 2 inches off my waist, an inch off my thighs and 2 inches of my tummy, and 2 inches off my bust! and its only day 5...

End of day 4.. well after the porridge for breakfast which I found really hard finishing, when it got to lunch time I just couldn't face another liquid meal (I cant find a flavour that I like apart from the chocolate shakes!) so I had a peanut flavour bar for lunch, which I know your not...

Thanks, I hope so!! xx

Yay, reached day 4! Although just had a sneaky peak on the scales and I still haven't lost any weight! Starting to feel a bit disappointed that I'm sticking to it 100% and scales haven't changed yet! I think I'm going to stop looking on the scales and wait until tues my WI day, cz its driving...

wow that does sound like a stressful year, just seems like one thing after another.. well done you for managing the diet on top of everything :)

Hey, glad your feeling better today, I'm on day 4 aswell and today is much better for me too. I think yoga would be fine :) I've been swimming once this week, and went out for walks and things, just light exercise.

Great things - yeah I was disappointed when she said I wouldn't get weighed, she said she didn't have scales to weigh people with so I should go and buy my own. She is only 5 miles from my house and the other person in my area is about an hours drive away so will keep going with this person for...

End of day 3.. well this is a weird experience. Friday night and not ordering a takeaway and cracking opening the wine! Today has been fine, can't wait for this first week to be over with and to see if I have lost anything.. so far I have had a peek on the scales and I haven't lost anything...

sharon - nice to meet you too! Yeah that's what I keep reminding myself, food will be there when this is over! great things - thanks for the tips! and I had that kind of dream too that I had ate something I shouldn't have then woke up this morning panicking lol.. Yeah my CDC seems to be quite...

Heya, I'm on day 3 and finding it so much easier today than I did the last 2 days..although its the first weekend on it for me so think its gonna be hard!! How are you finding your first day?

Good luck! :)

Wow your losses are fab!! Well done! :)

My CDC said that its fine to drink it every so often, not every day but my last CDC said that you should avoid all fizzy drinks completely. So its completely contrasting advise lol.. i'm just avoiding them because i'm doing ok on the water just now but its up to you! If you see a difference in...

No that's not rude, you could make up an excuse like you've already ate lunch, or you had a big breakfast.. or your going out for dinner that night lol.. or you could just tell her your on the diet :) I haven't told any of my friends yet lol, only my boyfriend knows but thats cz he lives with me!

Woo finally on day 3, headaches aren't so bad today.. Last night my son woke up at 4am teething so when pouring the calpol on the spoon, I poured way too much so quickly sipped it, then 5 seconds later remembered about the diet and so spent from 4am till 5am online looking at the ingredients in...

Good luck! :) I'm sure you'll manage to get your goal by summer!

End of day 2.. managed another day 100%, although so many temptations!! Hopefully ketosis will kick in soon, these headaches are awful! Managed to drink 3L of water today and felt like all ive done today is run to the loo! Can't wait for this week to be over!! :-)

yeah that's what I thought too, they really aren't as bad as I thought they would be. So far I've really liked the shakes although not a huge fan of the soups.. the porridges are ok, at least when I have them in the mornings it makes me feel like im having a proper breakfast. I'll keep an eye...

Sounds like your off to a good start! I'm on day 2, finding it alright so far apart from the headaches!! Good luck, I'm sure this will be your year! :)

Yeah I know what you mean about the cameras, I usually manage to dodge being in the pics but I realized that I have only one pic of myself with my son because of being camera phobe! so that was another big kick for me to get into action! I'm finding it ok so far, had a few headaches today and...

Sounds like your doing well! I haven't tried the shakes cold with ice, might give it a go! Don't worry about the original, I had it this morning and it wasn't that bad! I actually preferred it to the apple and cinnamon I had yesterday!

Hey, think we're at the same stage, this is my 2nd day too! We're about the same weight too.. I've made lots of minigoals to keep motivated and also took a before pic the night before I started it...eek!! looking at that is def motivation lol! I know what you mean, I was making my little boy...

well this is the end of day 1.. I had apple cinnamon porridge (yuck!) for breakfast, chocolate orange shake for lunch and potato and leak soup for dinner.. had about 3L of water all day - and im soo hungry right now!! I was soo tempted earlier when feeding my son some scrambled egg! He...

Thanks, i'll steer clear of the diet drinks then! Yeah, she seemed a bit unsure of things, she didn't know the answers to the questions I was asking her and admitted to never succeeding on the diet, always falling off the wagon. She is only about 5 miles away from my home but the other nearest...

Well this is my first day on the diet.. just had a apple and cinnamon porridge for breakfast and have started on my water, feeling quite positive! I met my CDC last night for the first time and I am a little confused with some of the things she said.. She doesn't weigh you every week, she said...

Hey everyone, I haven't posted much on here so hope this is ok.. I’m Madeleine, I’ve been following everyones posts for the past few days and feel very inspired! I’m going to meet the CDC tomorrow night then hopefully get started on Wed. Feeling really excited about it! I have a 11month...

Hello! Of course you can, you got rid of the weight once, you can do it again! :)

Congrats with the weight loss, that's great! xx

Hello Everyone! I had my first weight watcher weigh in on monday after what felt like a looonng week! I actually found myself eating more than I did before. I was forcing myself to eat breakfast which I never do and I was making time for myself to eat lunch which I also never do as I have a...

Hi everyone! I joined the site last year just as I was about to start the lighter life diet however, I found out I was pregnant so the diet went on hold. Just over a year later, I'm back on the site and just started weight watchers! Really excited and really hoping to have some success with...
