    Not easy, but we made an agreement when she applied for the role that I would respect her as the MD in work but outside work she's my friend. It seems to be working, but I guess I have the same frustrations I would have if she wasn't my friend. One of my issues is that I got on really well...

    Time weirdly does fly when you are on this diet. You start finding time to do things you didn't have the time for before and of course, MM diaries help too!

    Hello lovely! You certainly know what you're doing and sometimes it's good to push our thoughts. That's amazing that you want to move to India and I think you are right in that the children are young enough to go now. If they really want to come back for university, they could. It will be a...

    Finally the week has past...

    Thanks chicas. I can now see the light, although did have a massive go at my OH this morning because whilst I can't actually see 12lbs (as there's so much to loose) he has to see it! LOL. He's never going to win this one - is he?!?!

    Finally the week has past...

    And I am chuffed to bits that after one blip in the road, I have lost 12 whole lbs! Ok ideally I shouldn't have shoveled 5 babybels in my mouth, but I'm glad I got through the hunger pains and drinking all that water. I think this is the mental turning point for me, so onwards and downwards we...

    Do you weigh yourself?

    My CDC told me not to weigh myself and the girls that have finished CD in work, have told me not to do it daily, but I still do! It's hard not to. Even seeing that little half a pound not there anymore keeps me going. I bet everyone is a secret weigher! x

    WTF is wrong with me?!

    You're not alone. I've just beat myself up for failing at Day 5 and stuffing my face, but like everyone says, it's hard. This is a journey and we will get there. Maybe with a wrong turn, but we'll find the right road again. I read an article lately about a girl in NY who did a "motivation...

    Lesson to learn from this silly girl!

    That's the thing, it's almost like I was telling myself that it's fine. Onwards and upwards as you say! Thanks. xx

    Lesson to learn from this silly girl!

    Thanks ladies. You're right, I have learnt a lesson - a hard one, but hopefully it will keep me motivated to goal. xx

    Lesson to learn from this silly girl!

    So, I thought it would be a good idea to give in to that little voice in my head and scoff not 1, but 5 mini babybels last night. To my delight, this didn't through me out of ketosis and I'm still burning away this morning. However what it has done is increase my hunger pains to the point I want...

    Newbie to CD

    I know I keep saying this, but thankyou for this forum! I very very nearly lost it in the shop. Talking to myself (in my head) in to it actually being fine to eat today, because the other six days I'll be good. Day 3 and it's so hard. I wish I was tired enough to sleep through it! X-Factor now...

    Lumps!

    I might go with the blender as there are 3 of us on food replacement diets at work now, so it would be worth it. Oh the choices the choices! Thanks guys! xx

    soontobelittlegem's last crack at CD SS 100%...

    12 hour shift?? Sheesh kebab. You're good girl! I'd struggle through an 8 hour day!! The other thing that might work as a mental goal is visualising an activity you want to do. I've given myself a 3 stone reward of starting salsa classes. I want to do that whole sexy wiggle and everything when...

    Lumps!

    Interesting! I had the butterscotch shake for breakfast y'day and it was too sickly, but I found that freezing the bricks and eating it like ice-cream was lovely. I am loving the soups though. I bought myself a big fat tea mug (you know the ones you can eat cereal in) and had my soup in that...

    soontobelittlegem's last crack at CD SS 100%...

    Fingers crossed. I'm sooooooooo ridiculously happy I came across this site last night! And the most exciting thing is, this site won't be banned from work like FB is, so during the day when everyone is munching through their cakes and big lunches, I can get through it with some fabulous like...

    Lumps!

    I didn't buy the shaker, but think I will get one today - I suppose it's a good one to work those muscles! I love the idea of a mug with an attached whisk! I was thinking about the bars, but doesn't it make it harder as it's over too quickly?

    soontobelittlegem's last crack at CD SS 100%...

    I'm right here with you too! Although this is my first (and pray it's only one) time on CD. I have a big conference on the 15th September so that's my first mini goal and ideally would like to loose at least a stone by then. Good luck!! xx

    Lumps!

    Hi all. I'm on day 3 of SS and worked it out so I would be at home for any moodiness and upset I may have. I've just made my morning hot mint chocolate and got extremely frustrated with the lumps. At home I can blend them out, but what does everyone do when they are at work to get the lumps out...

    Hi new CDers

    Good morning. I thought I would come and say hello. Read through a lot of the forum posts last night and it's just so inspiring. I'm on day three of SS and feeling fine. First time I'm doing it, so coming across such a great forum is great for tips and advice. Thanks in advance for any advice...
