    Errr, I need to lose half my body weight? Yikes.

    How's it going? I joined NSC yesterday and they too, only gave me 15mg of phentermine. I'm going on holiday so can't go back for two weeks, but want to get the higher dose ASAP. Today I didn't feel starving, but did have a few rich tea biscuits with a cup of tea this evening!! Have you lost...

    Giving up

    I know how you feel. I am on day 10 and after a week I had only lost 5.5lbs. I felt so down.....especially after reading about everyone's amazing weight losses on here. Someone suggested it was because I ate some sweets on day 5, and I beat myself up about that too, even though I only had three...

    The Easter Challenge!!

    I think it's because when I did WW a year and a half ago, I lost 6lbs in the first week having eaten loads and drunk wine! Second week I lost 4lbs...... Then I started work and it all went to pot. Seeing others who have less wright to lose than me, but have lost nearly double, does make me...

    Go for it Emma. I tried on and off since the summer but as my head wasn't in the right place, I didn't do well.

    I agree with what you said Noodles. I think we have to accept that we are all going to cheat a little .....after all what is life about but to enjoy something every now and again. If we look at it over a week, S&S is allowing us about 6-700 calories a day. That's an awful lot less than what we...
