Hi all B I can't wait to see how uv done in ur weigh in! I did a good session at the gym, I was very proud of myself but I havnt managed to fast today- iv been really hungry and as it's * wk iv had far more cravings than usual- before this I would have beat myself up and been really negative...

Hi- I'm doing 2 fasts a wk but i'l change it to 3 if I need to- I'm drinking more and iv cut right down on the diet coke! I'm exercising a bit not madly- iv been on wii fit and iv just joined a gym, I'm just really doing what I can to fit it into life without stressing myself as I no that the...

So how many fasts are you doing per week? And when's your weigh in day? Are you drinking a lot more than usual on fast days? And are u exercising at all? I'm trying really hard to only eat when I'm hungry at the moment- I'm not doing too badly x

Hi B I'm trying not to be upset but I no I gain up to 7lbs on this week! I'm still being sensible but I'm not expecting much in the morning! Feeling a bit sorry for myself that's all! So 2 hrs left?? How many fasts have u done now? X

I'm so upset- I've just started my * week, this means my losses will most likely be completely wiped out tomorrow ?

Lol B iv got an 18 yr old too both girls- I can't really comment much about how they are as my friends say they r not normal- lol They are both really good- I'm a single parent and honestly they are the best girls- they bicker a bit but not overly- Melissa the 12 yr old is very laid back so...

She's 12 B- and a little fitness freak bless her! X

lol i made her- ive done my 30 mins and im gonna go back on later when i ban her to her room for half an hour so i can do it in quiet!! mean mum!! im really recognising when im hungry today, iv eaten at very odd times but id prefer that to eating when im not hungry!!

im on and off the wii fit whilst doing housework when i get the chance-my daughters not sharing too well at the moment lol x

I think thats going to be the hard part actually- not feeling guilty when we do eat out of the norm of a diet! My long term aims from this way of eating is to hopefully train myself to make better choices, not to binge eat emotionally and to recognise when im full! i just feel that by having the...

Shazza I am really tempted but I need to wait til mon morning to get my first real weeks weight loss! X

I can't keep up on this thread already lol- iv got 100 lbs to lose I'm currently 20st5 which is the heaviest iv ever been- I'm actually not bothered about how fast the weight comes off if this works as I no I can implement this as a lifestyle change- unlike ww or cd which I just can't do long...

Hello all- So iv done my 2 fasts this wk and it feels a bit weird that that's it!! Of course I'm watching what I eat but not calorie counting or depriving myself- but it all seems way too easy!

Ok so I'm doing my first fast today 11am until 11am- I'm going to try the whole 24hrs, I'm thinking it should be easy as iv done cd in the past and at least I can have a little diet coke tonight if the going gets tough! Then I'm booked into the gym for my induction tomorrow! I weighed in on the...

Ahh thanks so much new start today- I have a feeling il be on here most of it- lol x

So firstly- thank you so much for all of your replies! Some very good advice, some of which iv been trying to tell myself but somehow it's easier to listen to other people! My day just carried on getting worse so I'm just off to bed with the intention of starting a fresh tomorrow! Thanks for...

Any advice you can give would be appreciated- I'm ruining everything!!! I'm so upset with myself- I'm supposed to be on ss- been doing quite well more on diet than off- unti last tues- I got weighed then that was it- iv been messing about ever since!! Woke up this morning determined to get...

Just did a whole reply on my phone then pushed the wrong button- agggghhhhhhh So basically iv been off plan since last tues- not impressed with myself- need to get backbone track now- iv made my Xmas goal harder now by messing about- but not impossible- 23lbs in 5 weigh INS! Come on emma- u can...

Oooh I had a visitor- thanks for popping by!! I lost 3lbs this wk - my Weigh in was a day early so I'm happy with that!

Well done to you- it's going to be such a suprise I love it! Almost the same iv done 24lbs and 15 inches :-)

100% yesterday- I seem to have my head back in gear! I'm awake at stupid o'clock, as iv never been a morning person it has to be the diet, I find I'm sleeping so heavily at the moment and must be getting better quality sleep for me to be awake right now! Aim for today- water water water and of...

So I ate again! Not happy with myself this time as it was totally my head and it won!! Really need to clamp down on myself today- stay 100% until wed weigh in! If I just focus on these next few days perhaps I will get through them! Off to read how well everyone is doing- I need inspiring!

Thanks pink- so when I read those threads the number will go? Right? Bite of a tree lol!!

Sooooo- I had ridiculous cravings for my fav food the last couple of weeks- and I caved in last night!! I ate way too much- but I really think I'm over it now and I can concentrate on the next few weeks! So straight back on plan today and we'll see what my wi on wed shows!! On another note iv...
