There is something so, so wrong with this world - people like you shouldn't be taken away.
Rest in peace gorgeous girl, you will be missed so much. I'm so sad that we never got round to you giving me the dancing lessons that we talked about :cry:
Sending your family and friends lots and lots...
Hey Barb :D
Well done on the 1lb loss, it's amazing how quickly they add up.
Did you talk to your GP about the medication - losing weight is a big enough nightmare without drugs making it harder for us! Hope you get it sorted.

:eek: OMG :eek: I can't believe I missed an opportunity to buy a rucksack.......its nearly a handbag.......and then I'd need a matching bum bag!! :p
My brum nightie and bed jacket will be made entirely out of lycra and will deffo have go faster stripes........a sight to be seen!

Don't.........there is still time, they might be my night running shoesies!! I think you should get them......you'd look fab!!!
Thanks for the stuff - tis great and the tights made me run faster this afternoon!

Oooh, just been out in my new shoes, what a difference :eek::D
I've now moved off the treadmill and am running outside and I'm actually (dare I say it) loving it - I get a real buzz from seeing how far I've run. I am now up to 8 miles with only a couple of 1 min walk breaks so I'm getting more...
Aww thanks for all the advice, really appreciate it :D
I went this afternoon and got fitted for a pair of running shoes. Was there for nearly an hour and he examined my feet, watched the way I walked and then recorded the way I ran. He said I needed shoes with stability so got a couple of...
Thanks Chick!
Done a lot of googling on the subject and its apparentlyvery common when running.....guess I'm gonna be wearing dark nail polish all summer!
Off this afternoon to get properly fitted so hopefully that should help! With any luck I'll manage to get a pair that match my shawl...
LOL!
How brave am I.....I've just done what you suggested and it does feel much better.....I will just ignore the fact that I'm totally traumatised by the blood a goo business that came out......wasn't expecting that at all!!! :eek:
Also put my trainers back on to see if they are too small...
Other than manky tootsies, I'm fine and dandy chick!
Haven't hurt my foot......went out for a run this afternoon and was fine, got home took my trainers off and both the nails on my toe next to my big toes were all purple and the nails are all wobbly....think it was friction from my...
Hiya....how's you?
URGH, I'm so squeamish about stuff like that!!!!!!
How long does the pain last? They suddenly appeared after my run today......:cry: I'm such a wuss!
Hi

Thanks! Look more bedraggled than goddess today!
I've spent the last few sunday afternoons doing a cooking/freezing fest (my bf thinks I've been possesed!) I find that if I can get something healthy out of the freezer to bung in the oven, I'm far more inclined to eat well and avoid the...
Can't decide between a tea cake or an apple and cinnamon hot cross bun from M&S!!
I made a vast quantity of spicy butternut squash soup last week and froze it (god, I sound like a domestic goddess!) so might have to pop home for a big bowl!!

Hey Lovely
Sorry you are having problems, nothing with me is ever simple!
Now I need to find some suitable "Anne" running gear - I don't want my bed coat flapping in the breeze slowing me down :eek:

Di!!!!!
Your post just made me cry! Thanks so much for your kind words, you really are a lovely, lovely lady.
Isn't it funny that when you are feeling low and doubting yourself, something comes along to cheer you up and give you the kick up the bum that you need! After one or two vodkas too...
Thanks everyone, your support is greatly appreciated as I'm not getting a lot of it in "real life"!!! My friends seem to think I'm a silly cow and will never complete it (then again, they were the ones who said that CD would never work for me!).....it just makes me even more determined to do it...
Thanks hun, I'm the nutter doing it!!!
My Mum had breast cancer about 10 years ago hence me wanting to do it for Breast Cancer Care.....think its a great charity and will be nice to give a little back.
If you'd like to sponsor me, please click on the link in my signature, that takes you to...
Me shopping in NY???? Never!!!
LOL, no you will be spared from running as Friday is my one day off a week from training............so unfortunately we will have to shop and drink skinny lattes instead!!
Looking forward to seeing you......been blooming ages!

I have been very lucky with loose skin, it was one thing that did worry me when I started though. I did lots of exercise when I was on CD and I think that made a big difference, but also think it helped that I'm youngish and haven't had babies so my skin was still quite elastic.
For the last...
Thanks Barb, most pople think I'm totally mad for doing this but it just makes me evn more determined to finish it!
Been to the US lots but never been to NY before so will be a great way of seeing the sights......not that I will be in any fit state to appreciate them!!
How's you?

I got my place through a company called 209 events - they have allocations for all the different charities. Check out their website as they have various packages.

Hi
In a moment of utter madness, I have decided to run the New York Marathon in November this year :eek:
Having lost over 13 stone and kept it off for the last year, I decided that I needed a new challenge and wanted to do something to raise money for Breast Cancer Care........running 26...

It's a bloody nightmare....I hate it!
When I tell people I've lost nearly 14 stone, I get really uncomfortable at the weird and very suprised look people have on their faces.....but eventually you get used to it and I can now shrug it off. When people ask how I got to that size, I just laugh...
Hey Di
Firstly big hugs......:D
Secondly please, please stop weighing yourself everyday.....it really doesn't help and sometimes for whatever reason, our bodies can behave in a very strange way.
If you are sticking to the diet, which I know you will be, the weight will fall off, sometimes...
Obviously it was the first time I'd tried it.....and I obviously haven't touched a drop since!!!! :p :D
How's you hun? Am I gonna see you this year??!!
xx
Thanks :D
To be honest, I've no idea how I kept going - think my head was just in the right place and I'd reached the point where I was totally fed up of being the size I was and life had stopped being fun.......
Cambridge works quickly and I could see the results so that gave me the...
Thanks everyone :D
I'm a very happy bunny and can't believe it was 2 years ago today that I started the diet........time flies!
Mich, will try to add the pic but I'm cr*ap at anything techy!

Hey lovely lady :D
Long time no speak indeed! How's life treating you?
The instructor told me to work against the table to get the most out of them - when I did that I could really feel it working but still not so sure it will cure my wobbly mince pie ass!!! It was going to be in addition to...
I've joined a new gym and have just spent an hour on various toning tables - does anyone know if they actually work or am I wasting my time??!! Was very relaxing if nothing else :p

Hi Annie
Think I went to the same guy that you go to when I first started the diet. I'm now a CDC in your area so if you need any help or support, feel free to give me a shout.

Been there, done that............soooooo not fun!
Champagne and vlcd's is the devils work!!
Hope you are feeling better - I remember it took me days to recover!

Congratulations hun, mega proud of you :D
I'll give you a call tomorrow to see how you are doing.....
Now take it easy and chill for the rest of the evening!

Although the official answer is no, I have many clients who have skimmed milk in their tea/coffee and it makes no difference at all to their weight losses. At the end of the day, if having a dash of milk in your tea keeps you happy and sticking to the diet, I'd be inclined to go for it!
Also...
Don't worry about it - this diet is hard enough without having to drink packs you don't like!
I use City Link and its £12 a box, no weight limit - alternatively, my office is in Stockport so your OH is welcome to pop in to pick them up.
