    I have had to stop boxing training :(

    The last month I have STS. I have stuck to the diet and exercised regularly. This week I have spoken to my boxing partner and also to the coach about not losing any weight over the past month. They both advised me to stop boxing training because the fat is turning into muscle which can be...

    What do you think of this then....

    Aww thanks SarahSez. I'll be honest though in saying I seem to struggle more in the house than when I'm out. I find it too easy to just walk into the kitchen and open the cupboards or fridge, yet I can control myself when I'm out, even in a restaurant. I can't get my head around it! The only...

    What do you think of this then....

    Thanks for your comments metrognome. As for resisting the full english, all I can say is that it has been so good to shop for clothes in smaller sizes knowing how well I've done and that I look so much better and that my confidence has soared, that's the motivation I need to avoid foods like...

    I think you've done really well metrognome. I used to love fish n chips from the chippy but now I just think they're disgusting, all that horrible grease floating around, urgh! Try McCain Rustic Oven Chips, they're only 2.7g fat per serving and they're delicious! xx

    Advice for getting back on the wagon!!

    Isn't it funny when you reach a certain goal and you start to be complacent? But we forget, that because we have been very good and stuck to the diet and exercised well, the pounds have dropped off. Just have a clear head and get back on track, you'll soon have the pounds falling off again xx

    I couldn't have said that better myself rowkay :) It's awful when you feel low and you can't seem to shake it off, I went through the same about 4-5 weeks ago. Look at what you've achieved so far, you've done fabulous. The low feeling will pass and you will be back on track before you know...

    Hi Gill, welcome to the RC forum! All I can say is stick to the diet and exercise (exercise is crucial to losing the pounds) and you'll soon start noticing changes. Also you need to drink a lot with this diet so you will pay frequent visits to the ladies room lol Good luck Gill and don't...

    I tell you what is good for triceps (bingo wings lol) - hold onto a chair or sofa with your legs out straight and lower yourself down and lift yourself back up again. It's bloody hard! I can only manage about 3 or 4 lol

    wonder if somebody could help please

    Hi kateyb! Hope you enjoy the RC diet! I've found it fantastic, since February I've lost 3 stone :D I will say though, exercise is crucial to helping you lose the weight. Also because you will drink a lot during this diet, you will also pee a lot :D Good luck and keep us all up to date xx

    Chinese restaurant...

    When I have a chinese, I opt for chop suey (it's loads of peppers, mushrooms, beansprouts, veg, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts) and you can add meat if you like. It's delicious and filling which is ideal! :D Stay away from curries, anything deep fried, prawn crackers, egg fried rice :eek...

    You must go, otherwise you will be sitting at home wondering if it's as bad as you think and that will just drive you mad.

    What do you eat for lunch at work?

    I usually take a salad to work and I either add ham, chicken or tuna to it. I love salads so I suppose it's easy for me. In the past I have had tomato and basil soup with a slice of Nimble malted wholegrain bread, followed by a small tin of peaches. I have also had small tin of WW beans on 2...
