    Zero coke...

    Like others above, I don't drink tea and coffee and had a complete addiction to diet coke - had severe caffeine withdrawals when I started this diet! I now give myself a treat at the weekend and have one can of coke zero but stick to the water during the week.

    DON'T YOU JUST HATE IT WHEN......

    Haven't had the "skinny" experience yet.... but remember being in a certain trendy shoe shop with my much slimmer friend last year - I was interested in buying a pair of shoes and one of the shop assistants approached every customer in the shop except me!! I refused to buy from them as it was...

    If you decide to try again might also help to split your meals into half packs?? Good luck x

    One of my friends accused me of "cheating" by doing this diet to lose weight - I have never spoken to her about it again and she never asks me how I'm getting on..... it has put a barrier between us as I had expected her to be more supportive. I'll always speak to her but don't think it will...
