Hello all, not been on here for a week or two,, am getting a little disheartened.. I'm just starting my 7th week, first three weeks did TS lost 1st4lb, 4th week I swithched to WS, shake breakfast, bar lunch, and dinner is salad and chicken or salad and ham,,, I calorie count my dinner and it...

yes bridezilla, that plagued me for the first two weeks and woke me up in the middle of the night, I started adding salt to my soup and it then started to go....

nice!!

4lbs for me last week - 100% on packs,,, am introducing a meal this week to see how it will affect my loss!!

well done to you !!!!

wow - that's brilliant - you have done so well... love reading successes as it keeps me motivated

on that note, if having an alcoholic drink does anyone know what drink will cause the least damage???

keep on going Shos,,, that's what I tell myself everyday - on day 21 mostly doing TFR, have had two small cheats (one of which involved wine - food was ok - salad and chicken),,, have lost 16lbs,,,, am desperately trying not to cheat again as I know the weight loss will be quicker that way, but...

Wow,,,, well done, you are looking so good and are keeping me motivated...

hello,,, I didn't like them at first - thought they were powdery - but now I really like them and find them quite filling (can't believe I am saying that as it takes a lot to fill me).. I find them useful for my lunch in work as they just look like an average cereal bar,,, and I am not...

my sympathies petal,,, don't say tomorrow - give yourself a few days or a week with no pressure, maybe by the end of that time you will feel more able to start, good luck - I hope you get started again (I know what it's like - we all do on here) x

feeling your stomach on the top of your legs when sitting down... having to dry in the crease under your tummy after washing..... seeing someone from your slimmer days,, cringe,,,,,, feeling your side of the car go down when you get in..... ordering for two at the chip shop and you just...

well done Bernice - you did will,

honk!!!!

re: the size differences in the same size - me too, I've been trying on some of my size16 trousers and jeans and half fit me and the other half don't!! madness..... can't wait till they all do ----- gotta take up less space!!!!!

honk !!!

Hooray!!! Well done x

thanks Spyro,,,, appetite has gone down a little today but am totally obsessing about food - I have just hung up a dress I want to get into in my bedroom to remind me why I am doing this!!!!

Because I am!!! When I was 39 I kept saying to myself I don't want to be fat & forty and wanted to lose weight, I failed at SW after losing a stone and on my 40th ended up being fat & forty!!! My 41st is coming up in Dec' and this year am determined not to be so fat!!

Good Luck to you, hope you enjoyed the time off (I would have)!! Glad you are back on it and I'm sure you will lose that 5lb quickly, in a way it's good to know that it took quite a while of eating freely to put on 5lb... Gives me hope for when I start introducing food again (dream dream)!!

Well done Spyro,,,, another 52 may only take 13 weeks at the rate you are going - say 14 weeks to err on side of caution - not that long I think - good luck with it.... I'm just at the beginning of my third week and have just got over my hungriest weekend ever!!! Determined to keep on going..

honk

hiya 3stonetogo,, I'm a newbie too, on day 13 today - day 2 was the hardest for me as my head was banging - I'm sure it was caffeine withdrawl as was only drinking water as soon as I added black tea (which I thought I wouldn't like - but now love) my headache went and have not had one since...

honk!

Honk Honk (1 for yesterday)!!!

thanks all,, had the best nights sleep since starting last night - leg cramps were slightly less,, but I did dream of food - lettuce and tomoates of all things!!! I'm hoping that means a change in cravings.. or are cravings self inflicted.... good luck to everyone for a good day today..

Hello All,, Officially one week in and have lost 8llbs so I am very pleased with that (it has to be noted that in the 2 wks upto starting I was eating carb's like they were going out of fashion), and am still motivated,, but today can't stop thinking of food - all food, any food, this is...

Honk!!!

thanks Owup & Heidi,,, I will try the salt tonight in my soup, legs aching so much couldn't sleep last night, have been aching all day too.. but determined not to give up... Breath not so bad today as yesterday - have been trying to drink more water but I am drinking quite a lot anyway....

Thanks Jaynie, Thanks Susie-Slimmer,,,, I always said I didn't want to be fat and forty, so now I'm aiming to be less fat when I'm 41!! I feel really self concious of my breath today, so am going to have to up the anti like you suggest and drink more water, more teeth cleaning - but as it's...

HONK!!!!!!

It's nice to know I'm not the only one wondering about this, so far have only told one person and I'm on day 4, so not sure how long I can go without telling another... The person I told doesn't think it's a good idea, and another friend I told said I should just cut down on food - so am going...

Hello, and thanks to you all as have been lurking on here for a while and it helped my decision in going with Exante... On day 4 now and not having a prob with will power or hunger, not at all hungry which is so weird as I usually eat non stop. Today have def gone into ketosis, I know...
