Official weigh in day today - another 2lb off. Really pleased as had a bit of a naughty weekend calories-wise, it was OH's birthday so had lots of alcoholic beverages! Slightly concerned that this may yet catch up with me but as far as today goes, all is good :clap: love my little blue pills...

That's fabulous, well done Sophie, you must be over the moon!! Oooh I only hope that my doctor is as pleased as yours when I go for my monthly weigh-in. Keep it up girl xx

Oi you!! 4lbs is bloody fantastic lady and you should be very proud of yourself - you could look at it as you've lost 7% of the total weight you want to lose in just one week, wow! Glad you're sounding a bit more positive sweetie, you're doing great xxx

I am feeling a lot of anger towards the Carphone Warehouse!!! Anyone on here work for them, could do with some advice, trying so hard not to lose my temper with their customer services but my patience is wearing extremely thin. Customer loyalty counts for sod all these days....and if I cancel my...

5p - as in 5 pennies???? what sort of curry is it? I love curry :)

I take mine just before I start eating, I have forgotten it once and took it straight after I ate x

Glad you went for it Alex, it's the kind of trip that doesn't come along very often and I'm so pleased you didn't let anything stand in your way and you enjoyed yourself!! I'd have a look at your photos but it won#t let me, don't think my account is activated yet xx

Thanks girls - I am absolutely made up, especially considering one of my midweek weigh ins wasn't very positive, teach me to wait til official weigh day! Kittyketts - not really had any side effects, apart from when I had a Kitkat Chunky and it wasn't as dramatic as i thought it would be, just...

Check out my ticker...... nuff said! lol very happy I am :bliss: Back later - just wanted to share as I'm so excited xxx

Glad you're able to celebrate reaching your 3 stone mark and well done on losing that 1lb, it's a fantastic achievement!! I think you're doing a great job and hope that the fact that it's "only" 1lb isn't getting you down, but just in case it is I'm going to quote your own advice back to...

Hiya Jackie - we do pretty much mirror each other! The last one I was on was SW too lol - have been losing weight but veeeeeerry slowly, which prompted me to ask the doctor for any additional help; I originally asked if there would be any funding or support available to take up the Cambridge...

you need to go to User CP (top left of page) and edit signature, post it in there and save and it'll come up every time you post. Roast potatoes - you can still have them! I cook mine using Fry Light. You could always ask your mum to do them this way, healthier for everyone! Par-boil your...

BBC Good Food website is a good one, lots of easy recipes x

haha no I don't expect to lose a 1lb a day!! Unfortunately my magic wand is broken so that ain't gonna happen! Will report back officially on Monday and try to stay off the scales (and the kitkats) til then :)

Hiya - I don't know of any cookbooks as such, I tend to search online for recipes and then when I find ones I like, I print them off and keep them in plastic wallets in a ringbinder. That way I have recipes that I love and the plastic wallets protect them from getting food all over them! I do...

Hiya - I'm pretty new to this too I started on Monday, so am just figuring it out like you! I think your food looks OK but I'm sure someone who knows more will be along before too long to let you know. To get a goal ticker - I got mine from www.tickerfactory.com or you can just click on...

I think he probably means Fry Light spray - I use it wherever I would have used to have used oil, you can get it in most supermarkets with the other oils and it last for ages, only 1 calorie per spray and I only ever needs 2 or 3 sprays usually x

Thanks guys, suppose I'll just have to take what comes and suffer the consequences! Will have a chat with OH - he is pretty supportive but having all his crap in the house, chocolate, crisps etc is too tempting for words...he's even got chocolate eclairs in the fridge the bugger lol. I've made...

Hiya - I'm pretty new to this too, started on Monday and I've made similar mistakes, weighing myself all the time. Was 3 and 3/4lbs lighter yesterday, and then 3lbs heavier today - what's that all about???!!!! haha. You sound like you're doing everything right so please don't feel down... I...

AArgh I'm so annoyed with myself!!:mad: I tend to weigh myself at least twice a day, although I have been trying to cut down lol. I'm just so stupid - I weighed myself yesterday and was over the moon as I was 3 and 3/4lbs lighter than on Monday....then I did it today and I'm 3lbs heavier again...

Something I once saw on a TV programme about diets was to go and buy a pound of lard and put it in a plastic (sealed) bag. When the woman on the show was feeling down because she'd "only" lost a pound, the presenter whipped out this bag of lard - it was great to see the look on the woman's face...

I'm on day 3 of taking the tablets now and I think things are starting to take off! I have a question now concerning toilet matters....sorry in advance :o I've had no accidents or uncontrollable urges to use the loo, but when I went this morning, after flushing I noticed there was an oily...

Thanks for the fat checking tips guys, was a bit confused over whether it was saturated or all of it :)

Hi Warren - firstly I'm sorry to hear that your weight has made you so depressed, but it's great you're looking to get help. I'm in a similar position to you, having been prescribed xenical with no real information from my doctor. Reading the leaflet and looking online is the only way I've...

Hi and thanks so much for your help - it's great to know there's people to turn to who have already been or are experiencing the same things as me. Like I said the doctor didn't really tell me much at all, not even the fat amounts i should/shouldn't be eating! So your advice is great :) I'm...

Hi guys - been lurking in the forum for a few days now and everyone seems really friendly and supportive, so I hope you can all give me some good tips! I'm Kirsty and I am a serial dieter :rolleyes: lol. The most success I've had to date was the Cambridge Diet where I lost 5 stone in about 6...
