I read on another forum it's due to the viscosity change in our blood that occurs when on a vlcd. I've also noticed my gums have felt sore recently, but not bled as yet.

Just starting with a cough and cold. You'd think thinbgs would clear up quicker as we are getting all the nutrients we need in our shakes.

I've had 2 local injections in the last 10 days and had no problems. Think you'd be best to check with your cdc and dentist if you need to go under though.

I do some ss days and some ss+ depending on how I'm feeling. Means I can have a meal if I want and still be on plan, so doesn't feel like I'm cheating. It's just nice to know the option is there :)

My favourites are banana, strawberry and forest fruit shake. Porridge, soups and tetras are ok. Also like the berry water flavouring :)

I agree, I'd ignore the rude comment. What does it matter what some stranger thinks. it's how you feel that counts, and you should feel very proud! However, I would get tempted to post a pic of myself on his fb page when I got to target with the comment "up yours!!". You're doing something...

all my fat cells dissolving :)

Thank you guys :) Just been to loo and..... yay!..... ketosis stick is still pink :) Doesn't feel so bad now :) Gonna forget the blip, look at the bigger picture... onwards and upwards :)

Your right Annie. I should see this as a challenge to stick to it and be proud that I could cope with a setback and still succeed. Yep, that's the way to think :)

Yes, pookie, my consultant gave me 4 sticks on my first visit, but I do know you can buy them from some chemists.

I know Annie. It's just cheating makes me feel like I've failed, and when I feel a failure, I just think "that's it I can't do this" and quit. So wanted to stay 100% and up until last night I had every confidence in myself. Maybe I should try and think like it never happened!

Thanks. Going to try my best. Was just so shocked when scales said +3lbs! Wasn't like I went out for a slap up meal! Gonna find a ketosis stick, and keep my fingers crossed it's still pink.

So yesterday was day 12 for me and I managed to mess things up! Last night for some unknown reason I ate 5 biscuits, 4 chocolates and then some fish in parsley sauce!!! Really annoyed with myself, especially as I got on the scales this morning and it looks lkike I've gained 3lbs over night...

Day 5, and ...... my blender has broken :) My nearest supermarkets Asda or Tesco, and there's a Wilkinsons store nearby too. Don't really want to travel much further than that but I need to get one today. Has anyone brought one from any of these shops? If so, which one did you buy, and were they...

Day 4.. and all is going pretty well. Not really felt that hungry, but have been feeling tired, especially around late afternoon. Suprised I've managed 4 days, and that is hasn't been too difficult. Already feeling less bloated, which is nice.

So day 3 nearly at an end. Not been too bad. Feels like I have a real low around late afternoon. Feel really tired but then I pick back up again. Felt a little hungry today but water really helps :)

Day 2 done. Felt really tired and disorientated at times. Had to drive a fair bit today too, but stuck with it. Not feeling hungry, which I find very strange.

First couple of mouthfuls were yuk, but got used to it. Just kept telling myself it was good for me!

Have to say I didn't sleep too well last night. SAtruggled to drop off because I felt pretty dizzy. Then woke at 3.30am and have been tossing and turning ever since. Just get the first week over I keep telling myself! Off to try some porridge for breakfast..........................

Will try that tomorrow... thanks :)

Thanks Yolande. Thinking like that makes things feel a bit more flexible. So I'm either gonna do a 100% ss day or 100% ss+ day, depending on what my day brings or how I feel. 100% is 100% Having that 2nd option means I don't have to cheat :)

So day one done... 100% ss :) Just off to walk the dogs then bed.... here's to day 2 :)

I just made my choc shake with warm water, and blended it lots, but it still came out lumpy! How do you make yours? Was wondering if I should mix into into a paste first? And if so, with hot or cold water. My cold shakes earlier today came out fine.

I'm planning to stick to ss when I can. But tomorrow I go out for lunch with my mom. Can't tell her I'm on CD, she'll think I'm starving myself. So will do ss+ then, and if I'm really having a bad day. Would rather think in those terms than feel restricted by ss, and eat something and feel like...

Just looked at your weightlosses Sykesy.... brilliant!... well done you :)

Thanks, will keep you updated :)

Day one..... Met with my consultant for the first time this morning, lovely lady::) Got all the info and well stocked up for the week. Don't feel too bad so far today, a little fuzzy headed now the day has gone on, and a little tired, but don't really feel hungry. Wasn't sure whether to do...

I'd like to join too please :). Starting CD tomorrow so a challenge sounds good motivation. DisneyParis - 14lbs Oscars mum - 14lbs Sainsbury84 - 14lbs IWillBeAYummyMummy - 20lbs Linda S - 14lbs

Thank you :) I know coming on here will help me stay motivated. Hope you both have a good loss this week :)

Well have an appointment with DCD on Monday and going to give this a real go. Tried a few years ago but only lasted 2 weeks because I felt so ill, headaches, dizziness, etc. So gonna try harder this time. Want to lose around 5 stone... so fingers crossed. If anyone has any advice or tips they'd...

Lost 4lbs too. Did well all week with what I ate, but didn't get chance to do extra exercise so I'm pleased. Have to admit |I felt hungry all day today though! But sticking with it so far :)

I've just ordered it off the RC website because I couldn't get it from class. £3 inc post and packaging.

Thank you, will go check it out now.

Anyone know of a site I can use to check calories. Gonna buy the RC A-Z book on Monday I think. But wanted something to help until then. Tried a couple of sites but they are either US foods or want you to register and pay! Any help would be appreciated )

Well done. Amost done week 1 too. Weigh in Monday so fingers crossed!

Thank you. Went along to class, weigh 13st 12lbs! Managed exercise session too (not done any for a long time!). Sweat like a pig, but really enjoyed it. Had a healthy tea when I got home.... now to start as I mean to carry on :)

Could I join in the challenge too please? Staring classes tonight :) Would really like to lose 10lbs by end of July.

2 stone loss so far is great, well done :) Yeah, I liked SW because it was easy to follow with all the free foods, just lost the motivation to stick with it. Hoping to do better with RC. Not sure how I'll get on with the exercise session though.... not done anything, other than walk the dog...

Hi there.... I'm starting my RC journey at my local class tomorrow. Have about 5 stone to lose, but gonna give it my best shot. Good luck to us both, eh? :)

Hi there... I've just decided to give RC a go again. I lost 5 stone 10 years ago, but unfortunately put it all back on! Lost 2 stone last year with Slimming World but got bored, and have put that back on. So taking a deep breath a joining my local class tomorrow night.... Looking forward to...

I can connect with you guys here too. Have 5 stone to lose. Lost 2 stone last year on slimming world then put it all back on! Been trying to get motivated since new year! Got an exercise dvd I've had out once! Got an old dog too, so our walks are hardly taxing. Keep starting afresh nearly every...

Hi all. I lost 2 stone last year and have now managed to put it all back on! Now I'm trying to get my head in the right place and start again but keep messing up! Anyone got any tips for getting motivated?

I usually buy my fish from there, and also qourn. Last time I went qourn chicken burgers were a £1 for 4, and they are lovely :)

It's in the sw 100 delicious deserts book. Serves 2....... 2 large eggs 5oz fat free fromage frais a few drops of vamila essence 2 tblsp of sweetener nutmeg to taste Mix everything together and pop mixture into ramekin dishes. Put in a roasting tin, and fill tin half way up ramekin dishes...

I'm having some new potatoes, salad and some left over tinned salmon. Then for afters I've got some sw spiced egg custard chilling in the fridge as we speak :)

Mom's not too bad, thanks. Was a mild heart attack apparently, but still scary stuff. She has scan on Monday so will know more then. Just feel so disappointed at a gain! I'm awful when things go wrong, just usually throw my hands in the air and give up. But I'm not going to, gonna try extra...

So every weigh in since I joined has resulted in a loss. I was 1lb off my 2 stone award, and weigh in this week showed a 1lb gain! This is sooooo demotivating, struggling to stop myself having a chocolate binge now! Didn't think I'd eaten too badly this week, but it's been the first week I...

I like the sound of this. Just contemplating buying a slow cooker at the moment. Looking around for recipes to see if it's worth buying one. Like the idea of chicken and barley, thanks for posting :)

i like butternut squash chips :)

I made this today and had it will a muller light vanilla with cherry and choc sprinkles yogurt. It was lovely, reminded me of black forest gateau :)

I just use fat free yogurt, eggs, and pinch of nutmeg, and sprinkle a little cheese on top (hexa).

Yeah, had tea early as I have to go to work. It was ok, kind of like pearl barley and bits of other veg in a creamy sauce. Very filling, but would only fancy it once in a while. After trying it, I don't think it would be very nice cold, so won't be adding it to tomorrow's salad.

They are back on sale at my local Asda.

I did something similar last summer. Couldn't believe the hospital when they said it wasn't broken.... it hurt sooooo much! Hope it gets better quickly for you.

Anyone tries Ainsley Harriott's Spelt? I brought a packet and was going to have half with some chicken tonight, and the other hald with some salad tomorrow. Anyone know if it tastes ok cold with salad?

Oh, didn't know that. Thanks you..... so glad my chickpea dahl is free :)

I thought chickpeas were free? Does that mean I have to syn asda chickpea dahl? Hope not, because I just love it!!

Well done! That's some achievement, and an inspiration to the rest of us :)

Hope so! I've not been synning my sardines!

If you have stuck to plan for the other 6 days of the week you will probably be ok. I've only gone over my syns once, and used about 70 too many, over 2 days. That week I lost 3lbs, which was better than most other weeks! But not gonna try it again! Think doing what you say, eating superfree...

What great ideas! Never thought of sauces, stuffing in chicken, etc. Like the sound of the cheesy scrambled egg too, Will be giving some of these a go!

Would like to join too, please. I'll go for 7lbs. Added myself to list. Karen - 10lb (0lb lost, 10lb to go) Sonkie - 10lb (0lb lost, 10lb to go) Zombiecakes - 8lb (0 lost, 8lb to go) Melvis 10lb (0lb lost, 10lb to go) Carthago - 6lbs (0lb lost, 6lb to go) RubyMoss - 8lbs (0lb lost, 8lb to go)...

Sounds lovely, where did you buy them?

That looks delicious, must give it a go this week. Thanks for posting.

I thought the extra lean was free too! Have you tried qourn mince, I use that sometimes.

Staying just outside Whitby, a place called Sleigh. So up bright and early this morning, just about to get ready for the off. Hope the weather holds out!

Well, I'm off to sunny Whitby for a week tomorrow, apparently the famous for the best fish and chips in Britain!! Oh well, guess I best stay focused and motivated :) Hope everyone else has a good week.

I saw it. Gonna have a go at the fritters when I get back off holiday. He also did a sausage and pasta dish that I'm sure could be adapted to sw.

I tried them Thursday at class and really like them. Some of the group thought they were too sweet, but not me :)

Lost 3lbs this week, and got my first sticker for half a stone, so very pleased :)

I brought the "family feasts for under a fiver" book, and have made quite a few of the recipes from it. Its uses simple ingredients and recipes are easy to follow. Also brought the "extra easy cook book", but not keen on that one, means going out different buying herbs and spices I may never use...

That's great news, well done you!

http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-recipes/41559-rice-pudding-recipe-request.html

i think we all have days like that, just need to snack on the right things. Another thing that helps me is a mug of chocolate options (2 syns), made with milk from my hexa. Its warm, rich and creamy, and stops any tummy rumbles :)

Now that looks tasty!

I just made myself some dyn free rice pudding and now i'm so stuffed i feel like i don't wanna eat for the rest of the week!

Now that sounds interesting, might pick some up next time i go shopping.

Just tried this, it was lovely. Feel really full now too!

I got 8 out of 10

Not sure about the Aldi ones, but I think all the muller fat free ones are syn free. And they are sooooo nice, aren't they? The orange and choc is just the best!

Great idea! Just had a go too. 8 out of 10, but need to be a bit quicker!

Can I join too, please? Would like to lose 3 stone (42lbs) by christmas :)

I might have to change. Start a new job in a couple of weeks and not sure what hours I'll be working, so will have to wait and see!

Going to a group at the moment,thursday nights. What about you?

I'm having beef chilli and sw chips, then some strawberries for after :)

I'll come and say hi too, thanks eternal flame. I'm on extra easy too patsy... going ok so far, had to read the plan about 10 times first though! Can't look at the green or red plans because that will only confuse me!

Thanks ruby. Enjoying sw so much at the moment. I have time to organise what I'm eating, have enjoyed experimenting and have not felt starving like I usually do on a diet. But back at work next week so not much time to plan, so I need to be very careful!

Just about to make some home made potato and leek soup, followed by a muller light.

I didn't realise what was going on with the team thing. Would like to join one too, or start up a new one.

Well, my first weigh in and I lost 3lbs, well please. Now for week 2 and still feeling positive. Think not having a rumbling tummy all week really helps to stay motivated :)

Don't have anywhere to heat things up but the home made soup in a flask sounds a good idea, I've been experimenting with soups this week :) Potato salad sounds good too, and rice. Thanks for all the ideas, should keep me going for a while, need to have some variety so I don't use it as an...

Hi there, good luck with your weight loss :)

Great news on your 5lb loss, well done! My first weigh in is on Thursday, and I'm surprised at how much I am able to eat with sw, but hopefully the scales will be nice to me!

Well, I'm on day 5 and feeling pretty positive. Have enjoyed planning my foods and experimenting a little in the kitchen, but....... Next week I'm back at work, and need some packed lunch ideas up my sleeve so I don't slip up! What sort of things do you guys buy or take to work for lunch?

Well done, fingers crossed for more loss next week, eh? :)

Well done on the 5lb loss, and good luck for your next weigh in. I have my first on Thursday, so have my fingers crossed. Like you can't quite believe I can eat so much and still lose weight!

Can definitely see a difference Paddy. 22lbs in 6 weeks is great. Well done you!

Good luck for your weigh in, hope the scales say something nice :) My first weigh in is Thursday, so got my fingers crossed!

Thank Karen :)

Good luck Adam, fingers crossed for you.

Hi all I'm new here. Started SW last Thursday night, weighing in at 13st, 13lbs. My first goal is 10%, which is 12st 7lbs. Ultimately, I'd like to lose around 5stone (which I did a few years back with Rosemary Conley, but it all crept back on!!). Anyway, I know it's only day 4, but feeling...

Hi everyone I'm new.Joined slimming world on thursday night and all is going well so far. Looking forward to meeting you all x
