Hi guys, Well this failed shockingly. I seem to have zero control around food right now :( So for now I have moved to Slim & Save (on day 2 and still alive :o). Hoping to go to WW after a moth or so, after reeducating my appetite a little and getting some motivating weight loss done. Thanks for...

jem_jem I am on day two and so far I'm so pleased I have taken the plunge. I'm sure you will be pleased too :) Best of luck xx

Thanks for replying :) I've drank a lot of water and Coke Zero since I posted, but I feel a bit better and glad that I was good. Tomorrow is a whole other challenge. I keep trying to justify some vodka and coke zero. If I pass out at least I'll be in a safe place. I sound like such an alcoholic...

OK I'm really about to cave in! How can a diet get harder??? Already had all 4 meals, the spicy spaghetti was delicious!! But I'm absolutely dying for some wine. Like I could cry. And I don't know how I'm going to get through tomorrow without gin! Honestly, I have nothing to do in my life apart...

Well done!!! How have you found it so far?

Mashworth I am looking forwards to that one! Sounds yum! I'm going to try to not let it get to me because they will soon be interested when I've dropped a stone in three weeks (we can hope eh ! Aiming high :p) All the girls were lovely really, just a bit perplexed because they are about 9 stone...

Hi guys :) Well I haven't cheated yet! Had two shakes, had the spag bol but only about 2 spoons because It's not for me, so I've had a chocolate bar for now and I'll make a chicken breast and broccoli later when I get night munchies. Everyone at work was really nice/unhelpful at the same time...

Thanks everyone :) First shake down, choc cereal, was lovely! My plan today is to work super hard and try not to think about the hunger. Feeling really apprehensive about the dinner though :( eek!

Hi guys! Thanks for the advice. Feeling a little rubbish already and I haven't even started! Told Mom about my diet (I live with her so I had to) and she's been very patronising Her exact words are "Is that how desperate you are" and "I didn't think you were the type to fall for things like...

Hi guys! I'm so annoyed I just typed a huge message only to lose it...:mad: Anyway, I am starting S & S tomorrow after a month of outrageous diet swapping and cheating. I am petrified as I really didn't expect to be eating sachets (I know... even the website tells me they're dehydrated, but I...

Wow you did well today! Keep it up:D

Thank you, I thought I was doing awful but I suppose that as long as I'm good at the weekend I should still lose :) Cheers for the support!

Hi aloum, It's my first day back on WW and I am ravenous, I'm thinking it's the winter (excuses excuses) but I am trying not to give up. Best of luck !

Aha I should have read this more carefully, I will be back Jan 7 to see how you are doing. Also I wouldn't diet if I was going to NY so I don't blame you! Have fun!

Hi Slushy! Sounds like we have about the same amount of weight to lose! I am also a re-starter using WW online for the first time. how are you finding it so far? Looking forwards to watching you lose all that weight :party0011:

How has everyone found today? I am STARVING :D

Hi everyone (anyone??) Today is not going well! I have used all my points and 7 weeklies and it's not even 9pm yet :( I am starving and feeling a glass of wine! Looking at my diary today I deserve it, I must stop snacking. B: Muller light, vitality bar, babybel light (no time for real...

Thank you, I am feeling very do or die about this so fingers crossed I can get there :rolleyes: There's nothing else I want more right now. We can do it!!!!!

Linda let's see what he says when another handsome man starts seeing you for the lady you are eh :) Use all that to spur you on - you want to make him feel sorry for ever doubting you! Good luck everyone with your 2013 weight losses!

Ok so my previous attempt failed due to the time of year I think. Also I had no WW food shopping in so I was very unprepared! I have started today though and I have done very well if I may say so :D B: Muller Light (2) Adsa vitality bar (2) fruit. L: 4 pieces crusts away with a little marmite...

I found they gave me a funny tummy so I gave up, however I will be starting up again soon!

Hi everyone! I hope I'm doing this right, I've always wanted a weight loss diary on this site so here I go! I think it will help me to stick to plan if other people apart from me know when I am being naughty. To add some about me. I am 22 and a part-time worker /post-grad student. I was at my...

Thank you for the advice :) I've decided on WW for now as I am usually quite good at keeping on track. If I have no luck I'll try low carb.

Hi everyone! Over the last few days I've been trying to find a way to lose some weight. I've been researching for days on end the different diet plans available. Once I find one that sounds good however I find conflicting advice seemingly from good sources advising against them for whatever...

Thank you trudyc & minnie_me for your answers. I'm going to do a good research and decide on a plan I think is the mos sustainable. Good luck in your Dukan over the festive period ladies!

I'm starting to get a little panicky :D This diet is made for strong-willed people (which I am not!). I keep switching over in my head which diet it will be. I'm going from a VLCD like S & S to Dukan to Atkins to WW back to Dukan! What worries me about Dukan/Atkins is the fact that I am not a...

Thank you :) I'm curious. How do those who are currently on Dukan survive events like Xmas? It's not the most flexible diet so what do you do if you slip?

Hi guys! Thanks for the advice. I've decided to hold off until boxing day, this will give me a better chance at success I think :) I'm sure I can just about manage a booze- free New Years! Do you guys think that I would benefit from eating lower carb until then? So say only meat and veg at...

Yay :D I haven't started yet due to a lack of food shopping (Mom went today and came back with crisps, chocolate fingers etc :(. Why did I decide to do this at Christmas????) I'm planning on starting tomorrow. I've read the book and I LOVE meat so I feel fairly confident. However I'm now...

Hey I'm just starting Dukan, I wanna talk about it :D

Hi guys! Just started XLS today as the pharmacy I work at had them on offer. I'm not expecting them to be magical but they have definitely boosted my motivation again! Lost 24 lb through WW and have put on 8 due to quitting smoking :cry: I'll report how I'm doing when I can :) BTW to anyone on...

My secret: Valerian extract It comes in a liquid and you drop some in water (doesn't taste of anything!) a half hour before bedtime. It's 100% herbal and non addictive and believe me it WORKS. Me and my fiance now call it my "sleepy water".

At first I was petrified of meetings because I'm so shy, but after a while it really helped my motivation. I actually look forwards to impressing my leader :) It really is inspiring to hear everyone elses weight loss, and if you do go alone I'm sure someone will be nattering to you within five...

I only lost 2lb in my first week :( but I used ALL of my weeklies on vodka (oops!) Fingers crossed for tomorrow, 3lb would do me nicely!

My mom just went through a similar ordeal of a minor heart attack, but it was the other way around and the doctors thought it was indigestion! However my mom still refuses to lose weight/ stop smoking etc etc. Some people decide to give up after a minor health blip, but I'm glad you're not the...

Hi Squircle :) Sorry to hear about the heart problems- must have been scary! But by taking steps to lose weight you'll minimise the chances of it happening again- just remember that if you ever feel like it's impossible or if you're struggling. Best of luck :)

Well done, there's nothing wrong with treating yourself on holiday, otherwise it wont feel like one! Have a good time :)

Feels good doesn't it, heehee :P I'm so bad, I do want her to lose weight, but I also want the world to be fair!

Update: I have lost 8 pounds and my friend has put on 7 pounds!! You all are full of wisdom I tell you :P xx

mommyB- I'm in Bartley Green, a teeny little villagey place by Harborne/Northfield. I know where you are :P Thank you everyone, I guess I do need the weight to be sustainable after all. My friend does tend to go up and down so at some point she could put it all back on whilst I'm all skinny...

I'm definetly going to start mine from 12am, but I'm finding myself really not wanting to eat until the morning. Yay progress!!

True, it is rather nice to stay inside and toasty while my friends huddle around a lighter. Ha I'm such a smug ex-smoker.

She's about a stone and a half lighter (with one of those hourglass figures and E cup boobs.....*****.) :) I have been eating 22 points a day but I think I may go to 20, however I'm not sure if this is productive or not! It's took a bit over a month, I do know that WW claim a leightloss of...

Going to add a psych perspective here (excuse me, I get into uni and I think I'm Dr Phil). Anyway- I am prone to bingeing (my vice is chip shop, I will eat mine and my boyfriends and my moms and want to go back :( ) but greasy, delicious fat-filled foods are what our bodies like and what was...

I've been on WeightWatchers for over a month and I've lost roughly four pounds. My friend however, who has been starving herself all day and then eating a takeaway, has lost 9 pounds!!:mad: I feel that the world is unfair and I'm losing faith in the diet. :( Does it take this long for...

I quit smoking and my gosh does it make you throw your diets out of the window. But I would say focus on quitting first, therefore dieting becomes easier when you're not desperately craving all kinds of crap :) But if you feel you're there then go for it!!! : P

Thanks Suzy! Sometimes I wish that I was still smoking (11 stone) but I suppose it was the right thing to do :)

Yeah I've decided to do it alone, now if I could stop CHEATING i'd lose some weight :P

I'm so ashamed of myself. I was planning on cooking some jamaican fried dumplings (basically fried dough) with 1 cal spray but it wouldn't work, so I broke out the extra virgin olive oil... and used a fair amount....:( Rough points estimate anybody? In my defense the dumplings were small and not...

I did think about that, but I'd be gutted if I accidently used them all by Saturday and have to full on fast all Sunday :/

I'm doing it for myself, my boyfriend and to set a good example for the rest of my family who are overweight. I was also the one to actually quit smoking so I fancy being "the strong one :P"

Yeah my mom always told me to never eat at night, but I'm sure it's not true.....right? :/

Aww thank you :) Going to start sticking to my points and not ignoring the ones that I dont like (I'm sure tea + 2 sugar is NOT 0 points :/)

Love reading your diary as it proves that everyone goes over occasionally :) (I know that sounds like I'm trying to be a biaatch but I'm sure you understand what I mean :/) Well done and carry on the good work - I will be watching :P

Wow I <3 WeightWatchers :)

Cheers, got a calculator and now I'm good to go :)

Hi I'm a little confused about when I should restart my points :/ I suffer from insomnia so I tend to be up until 4-5 in the morning, and then sleep a lot in the day :rolleyes:. Could I, in theory start my points anew say at 12 am each morning or does it have to be when I go to sleep? Thanks...

You're all so nice :P

Hi I've been eating WW food for ages because tbh I like them and they make me feel less guilty :). I'm thinking about joining WW online as I'm too embarassed to go to meetings :( but it is quite pricey. I want to know is it helpful and si it worth it? Cheers :) xx

Thank you :) I think this site will help a lot

Heya! I'm also new to (serious) weightloss and wish you the best of luck! I once tried Slimming World but only stuck to it for 2 days :/ so do well and show me up please!:o

Hi I am desperately trying to lose 20lb to be a a slightly healthier weight. MY BMI is 29 :cry:and enough is enough. I'm looking for a slimming buddy who is just starting out to inspire me and have someone to report to :D. I know that if I could just gain a little more willpower I could be the...
