    Sick and tired of being fat and tired

    I've just turned 26. I'm pretty happy with my life, I've achieved most of the things I've wanted to at this stage in my life. I've got a great partner, I've travelled a lot, I've saved up for laser eye surgery, my own car and all the travelling. Over a year ago I had a breast reduction which was...

    Back... with my tail between my legs!

    I know that it's very quick but the last time I think I'd dropped half a stone in the first five days. I was 151.2 lb this morning, and I really need to be 141lb by a week on Wednesday (i think its like the 27th of October) for a hospital appointment where my bmi needs to be under 25!!! any...

    Back... with my tail between my legs!

    Ah I just got out of routine, and you need to be so organised on this diet! then when I started eating all the wrong things I couldn't stop, and to be honest I was like a mad woman with cravings. I'm now working two jobs, so Monday to Wednesday I'm gone from 7.45 in the morning until 8p.m. so...

    An awful fall off the wagon!

    Went back to work on Monday having lost about 8lb in just over a week. was very unorganised and found myself doing mostly PV days and not PP. Wasn't too bad i suppose, until Thursday when someone suggested going for dinner after work. Starter, main course, dessert, then back to the house for...

    very controversial I'd say

    Decided against taking pills, it's really not a good move for keeping it off long term! The unlimited rice, pasta, potatoes at slimming world does not work for me however so have cut that out,in fact im more or less following the Dukan diet since Thursday to see how it goes..so heres hoping...

    another question....sorry!!

    On the website where you can find out your true weight and how long to stay on each phase, I was told to do two days on attack. I'm not struggling at all (just about to have dinner on day 2) and would really like to keep this kick start up for another day or two at least. Is it wrong to do...

    what happens if I slip up?

    thanks again ladies. Yes Im lucky that I don't have too much to lose, two stone should bring me to my "true weight" of 9.4. So maybe the best thing is to just try and stay "clean"...(kinda sounds like a recovering junkie) as much as possible. I have two big social events in Septmeber that Im...

    Why do you want to lose weight?

    I'm very sorry to hear about your son Jet, my family have been very badly affected by cancer over the past few years too. Sometimes I feel bad moaning about it when I think of my aunt who is very ill at the moment, or those that we have already lost! But we all have to look after our own health...

    Why do you want to lose weight?

    This might sound silly but there is one thing I really want to be able to do! Pull on a pair of skinny dark denim jeans and a white vest and look good, not with muffin tops and love handles!

    weighing - how often?

    The age old debate...Dukan is the only diet where you seem to be tol to weigh yourself every day! I do that anyway, and Ive only just started Dukan today! If it doesnt work for you then dont worry about it too much!

    what happens if I slip up?

    I dont think I'll have any problem getting through 2 or 3 attack days, but when in cruise what happens if I eat a potato or a bag of crisps? or even an apple?

    Hi guys, I saw a comment under a totally unrelated weight loss article from a girl who had lost 8.2kgs in 3weeks on the Dukan diet.

    very controversial I'd say

    Yeah i heard all about the side effects, I think that would be enough to stop me having binges. Im getting nowhere on slimming world because I've been all over the place with my eating. I dont know if its right for me, Weight watchers definitely worked quicker but I was always hungry.

    Some advice!

    Just incase anybody was unaware....Half tubs of ice cream, burgers and chips, beer,mojitos and peanuts don't lead to a weight loss at weigh in! Can somebody kick me, particularly hard up my backside please! :break_diet::cry:

    Had enough!

    Just started Alli this morning after a week of self loathing and near depression. Been attending SW for six weeks and am now above where I started, I just couldnt seem to get myself together. I had a specific goal set for myself, to lose a stone in July and August and that soooooooo didnt...

    Breast Reduction?

    Thanks so much everybody. I love that this forum is so open. I haven't really told anyone I'm thinking of it, just my mum and partner.

    Don't give up Ally, at my first weigh in I'd put on 2.5lb after being really good. I was mortified and sickened and so close to giving up but Im so glad I did.

    Saving syns for the weekend?

    I know what you mean Circes but I'd only be saving extra syns for a few drinks at the weekend. Since starting extra easy I really dont have cravings for rubbish and I have a curly wurly as a treat once a week, so I only tend to use my syns on things like tomoto Ketchup or teriyaki sauces anyway...
