    It's All Down(hopefully not hill) From Here

    Thanks for well dones and the balloons Alex - have popped them in the corner of my living room =P It does seem to have gone by so quick - though I'm actually running out of clothes right now so it's burning a hole in my pocket as well as in my fat deposits! Gives me an excuse to shop so I'm not...

    It's All Down(hopefully not hill) From Here

    Cannot believe it's been two weeks since I updated this. Life has clearly gotten more hectic than I'd planned =P Anyway hit my first stone which is awesome and have already dropped a dress size! I've even started doing pilates on a regular basis because strangely enough I enjoy it =P Hope you're...

    Just got xenical yipppeee but help!!!!!!

    Vodka's got very little (if any) fat and diet coke's all good so the drinking should be fine =) As for snacks try to go for stuff that's got low fat but high GI so it'll fill you up for longer. Typical snacks I eat a day are things like the apple and sultana alpen light bars or bags of ryvitta...

    Why have I got side effects with so little fat??

    I've never risked any form of butter because it can definitely cause the tango effect. And what are you using for the soup recipe? It might be something in there causing the problem. (It sometimes takes a time for effects to show) I agree with everyone that 800 calories seems really low - have...

    Just had my first real exercise for about three years, of any kind! Which was 1 hour of pilates. Doesn't burn calories but I've heard that doing one hour a week of pilates can make you look like you've lost 1st even if you haven't because it tones everything up until it's all not squishy...

    The Gym

    I have taken the plunge and asked for the details of my local leisure centre - but they haven't gotten back to me yet! Am just waiting. They do this "Platinum Membership" that lets me have unlimited use of the gym, the sauna, the pool and all the classes they run there - but yeah have to wait...

    The Gym

    I'm not an exercise buff at all - I look like a hippo who's got a very bad face rash whenever I so much as try to do any - but am looking to join a gym. Now where I live I swear there are hundreds of the things around and they're all different - so I'm literally lost over which one to pick. The...

    Why do I always do this??

    I fourth what everyone's said - you are not a failure. You're just like every other person trying to lose weight on earth. If you're struggling without the treats it can be really hard - have you tried Iced Gems? They're really sweet and they fit within the boundaries. You could use them if you...

    Hi new and worrying :)

    I get that problem all the time (being bunged up I mean) and it's usually because I'm not getting enough fruit or veg into my body - or a lack of water. Melon, strawberries and grapes a god-send because they're so sweet! I totally sympathise with the diet coke reliance! No-Sugar Ribena's a good...

    Birthday Cake?

    Works like a dream and no tango effect so here's the recipe for you guys! The slices are thin but chunky - very dense cake - to me tastes like chocolate fudge cake minus the sickly icing xDD I had my slice chopped up with hot low fat custard last night - heavenly xD It's only 0g of fat if you...

    Birthday Cake?

    Well it's in the oven (I am testing it out so I can see if it works ahead of time) so shall report to you all how it tastes etc and whether it tangos or not =) It did look like a real chocolate cake when I went to check on it a moment ago so fingers crossed! There's a lot of sugar in it (to make...

    Birthday Cake?

    Thank you for all the help! I did a bit of a search and found a "Fat Free Chocolate Cake" - it sounds a bit too good to be true but I'm gonna give it a go. And if that doesn't work I'm going to do that shaping WW cakes into the shape of a digital 18 xDDDD

    Thanks so much for all the support! I've put that saying on my desktop so everytime I load my laptop I see it.

    You guys all sound so supportive I can't help myself actually posting something, having been lurking for about an hour =P. I have literally just been prescribed Xenical this morning and am currently sitting here wondering whether I'll be able to go to University a completely new person. Which is...
