After having a good day yesterday and vowing that today I was going to get organised and do some excersise, last minute school shopping, sensible food shopping etc.... what happens? SNOW! So now I can't go out of the house for fear of smashing the car up. I suppose I could go sledging but even...

Hi All! How has your day been? I was sooooo looking forward to my tea this evening and it was horrible.... I think it was because I made my hubby a lovely tea! However I did my first bit of running in the gym this evening (all be it for one minute) so I do feel like I have achieved something...

I bought a book a couple of days ago - The Adventures of Diet Girl. It's so good, I haven't been able to put it down since I got it! If you are in need of some inspiration or reassurance that you aren't the only person with a food addiction and problems with self control then this is the book...

Hi There, I'm a newbie and have had the same experiences as you (LL etc) Look forward to chatting!

I have had my nintendo wii on standby since I bought it...... I must get back on the wii fit board! Ive only used it once! Thanks for the suggestions. I'm anxious to find a hobby or something I enjoy, rather than substitute on kind of food for another. I think on the basis that I am trying to...

Hi There all, I just wondered how other slimmers cope when they get the munchies in an evening... I tend to have a bath but with the dark nights I end up being in my PJ's at 6.30! My water bill is going to rocket... I'm just running my second bath of the day in an attempt to distract...

Hi There, I'm a newbie too.... good luck!

I did lighter life and am now doing slim fast as a lower cost healthier option. Whilst I had very good results with Lighter Life, 6 months of meal replacements played havoc with my body and it is a complete lifestyle change. I'm hoping that with Slimfast I can take all of the good parts of LL...

Brill, I think this is a great idea - I wish I'd done it, I felt a right frump in my "too tight" dress and don't have any good memories of how I looked on the day..... I guess I'll just have to go to Vegas for my 10th anniversary in a skimpy little number when I'm thin! x

How strange - I had decided to do mine for St Luke's in Sheffield who looked after my great nan. I guess the more involvement that I have with the charity, the more motivated I will be. I'll take a look at the sites you mentioned, they might be a help to me. Thanks!

The new year new starrt mentality ALWAYS does it for me. I have a couple of weddings mid year that I'd like to get into a nice dress for. I'm starting Slim Fast and xenical after a two year continual weight gain since Lighter life (lost 6 stone put 4 back on). I know how good it feels to be...

I noticed in W H Smiths that there is an Alli diet book - full of recipes and ideas that might be a good place to start - I didn't get and dietary advice when I was prescribed Xenical - and then the doctor wonders why I went away bemused and not understanding what to do! PS Alibalibee - your...

Just to let you know, I have registered my interest for this fun run later this year, I might as well raise some money for charity and have the fear of my bum wobbling all way round if I don't get into shape! Let me know if anyone else is planning this - my trainer at the gym is going to do me...

Hi There, I haven't used excersiseticker.com but think I might, yours looks good! x

Well I got myself a ticker (a bit of a boring one but hey.... you have to start somewhere!) I have been having the strawb shakes and they are ok - tbh it's a means to an end for me and down in one! Tesco offer is good though - I might even treat myself to some of the bottled ready made ones when...

Thanks! Thats worth considering then! I'll try it. I do find it odd that doctors can prescribe something without the advice and support that is needed for a drug like this - luckily I understand the basics and have never had any of the mortifying side effects.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I've just been and stocked up on powders ready to go and have started a new programe at the gym... but more importantly...... how do I get a ticker!!!!??? x

Hi There, I had decided to do Slim Fast as I hadn't had much joy with Xenical but having read some of the posts - in particular the one above concerning the 5% rule, it has made me realise that I was given this drug with no advice on how to take it and dietary advice - is this normal? When you...

Hi there everyone, I just thought I would introduce myself, my name is Jenny and today I started the Slim Fast diet. I'm doing ok so far and looking forward to some fast results to keep me motivated. If anyone needs a buddy, let me know! Catch you later! x:)
