Near Birmingham :) x

I'm also back doing Slimfast - been gone for a while - and gained weight instead of losing it! :( But starting again and hope this time will be more successful!

Yeah I like having warm food when it's this freezing! Still been having roast dinners and stuff with my family on evenings, just having shakes in the day and making sure my evening meal stays within calorie limit then I've got a nice hot meal to look forward to :)

lol yeah I suppose it's fine to have the occasional treat!

Bit worried about all the nights out and parties I've got coming up to the Christmas/New Year period - I'll be sticking to the diet food-wise but I will be having a few drinks...haven't got tipsy for a while and want a few good nights out with my friends especially after a nasty break up! I'll...

I'd like to be 10st by Christmas and I'm currently 10st7 - don't know if I'll be able to lose half a stone in the next few weeks though :(

Weighed myself this morning - am now 10st7, so total loss of 6lbs even with a couple of weeks off eating whatever :) Week 2 Monday - 10st7 - 2 powdered shakes - fish, rice, vegetables Tuesday - bottled shake - powdered shake - homemade cottage pie and peas Wednesday - 10st5 :D :D -...

Started again yesterday after falling off the wagon a bit lately...but am now more determined after cutting a man who was not worth it out of my life :) Monday - 2 bottled shakes - Minestrone soup - 1/2 can, wholemeal pitta bread - banana Tuesday - bottled shake - powdered shake - spaghetti...

Oh I'll prob be looking for a class around the Birmingham area as I go to university there :) depending on where they are and what times. When you going to your first class?

Thanks :) Been trying to do at least 30mins exercise per day, but really don't feel like it today :(

Purple Rain - Prince

Just come across this thread - Zumba sounds great, gonna look up classes, want to join, but want to convince someone to come with me lol

Thank you :) xx

Hi Claree, how you getting on? I'm also 20 and a size 14, hoping to get back down to a 10-12 by my 21st (next July.) In my second week of SlimFast, fingers crossed it works well!

Good luck xx

My target is 10st by Christmas, so I need to lose 9lbs

Don't know if there's already a thread on this, but can't find anything.... Has anyone tried the Asda brand of meal-replacement shakes, bars and snacks? I'm currently buying SlimFast powder and bottles, but have bought a couple of the Measure Up cartons. They're cheaper (88p each, and the...

Week Two In my first week I lost 3lb - started at 10st13 and am now 10st10, although to start with it didn't seem to be working. Am going to SlimFast for another week or two and see how it goes. Aim overall is to be 10st by Christmas, 9st by 18th March (Paris trip) and 8st7lb by July (my...

Thanks guys - just weighed myself (should have waited til tomorrow morning really, that's the official week deadline, but really wanted to see how it was going lol) am still the same weight! Am going to up my calorie intake and give it another week, carry on with the plan and the exercising -...

Yeah, I started off by just sticking to the recipes on the Slimfast website but a lot aren't 600 calories, so I'm just gonna calorie-count a healthy evening meal every day now rather than trying to stick just to SlimFast recipes. My calorie intake has been cut down by so much, thought I'd have...

I started the SlimFast plan on Monday, with the plan of doing it for a couple of weeks as a kickstart, before returning to calorie-counting and general healthy-eating. I weighed myself this morning and have gained a pound, though, when I was expecting to lose! :( Don't know what I'm doing wrong...

I'm 10st 13 and attempting to get back to 8 st 7 by calorie-counting and exercise...I put on the weight very quickly since starting uni 2 years ago and especially when I worked in America in the summer last year and they served free Krsipy Kreme doughnuts for breakfast lol So I have a few...

I love the Vampire Diaries, been keeping up with the US by watching Season 2 online :D I'm neither Team Stefan or Team Damon I quite like both lol

Good luck! xx

Yeah, sounds like a long time but I guess I'll start looking and feeling better as soon as it starts coming off. Would be nice to get to my ideal weight by the summer, as it's my graduation and 21st birthday in July which are two things I want to look better for. It's just when it starts...

Just seen this - can't believe how well you've done, it's great and you look great x

Yeah, I think setting myself short term smaller goals will help. Your mini goals look really good, must be really encouraging to be able to tick them off as you complete them. Starting my diary tomorrow cos today hasn't been a good food day :( lol once I get into it I think I'll do okay, just...

Hey, not sure if his birthday has passed now, but I'm sure it would be a great gift. My friend and I skydived in America last summer and it was amazing. It was my first and only time so I did a tandem jump. I was nervous whilst I was signing paperwork beforehand (the idea of signing your life...

lol Wagner is awful though. Not particularly keen on any of the contestants this year :/ although I've only watched a few, not watched every week.

Hey, just had a quick read though this, you've done really well so far, well done! Hope I can be as successful! Motivation/staying away from bad food is an issue :( lol

Reading lots of Shakespeare - I'm in my third year of an English degree. Got my dissertation to be reading for too and lots of other course reading. I'm doing a Children's Lit module this year though, which is really good, I'm loving reading all the old children's books like Secret Garden and...

I have a treadmill, I can't run for very long at all on it as I'm too unfit, I generally stick to power-walking unless I'm feeling particularly energetic! I get bored too, having my ipod on does help but I still want to give up after a while just because I'm bored, not particularly tired. But I...

This is a great idea - I have a Wii but not Just Dance, been thinking about getting it cos it looks really good, looks like it would be fun to do :)

Yeah calorie counting does sound a lot simpler and easier to stick to. With WW I think I'd be tempted to just buy the WW food at the supermarket with the points already on, and that food isn't always healthy! lol Also - decided to cut out - or at least cut down on them a lot - pasta and bread...

Weighed myself today and I'm 10st 13 - urgh :( Want to get back to about about 8st 7, not sure how long it's gonna take to shift all that though!

Thank you! :) Good luck to you too :)

I have tried a few times but never lasted very long - I break the diet, go out for a meal and when I looked at the horrendous amount of calories in pub/restaurant food I've given up! lol Determined to stick to it this time though! How about you? I was thinking of joining a slimming club like...

Just found this thread - I am also addicted to Diet Coke :( I never used to drink fizzy drinks a lot but in the last year I have really discovered Coke and I'm always drinking it, buy 500ml bottles all the time when I used to buy bottles of water. I thought with cutting out junk food I could...

Am going to start calorie counting today - aiming to keep it to 1200 or less each day, and keep to healthy foods. Also starting to exercise - well, I did half an hour on my treadmill this morning - power-walking, not running, as I can't run for long - UNFIT lol So far have made a smoothie for my...

Thanks guys, good luck to you too :)

Hi everyone, I found this site via Google and it looks like a good way to keep track of progress and help me stay on track a bit more! I'm 20 and since I started uni put on weight due to lack of exercise, and eating and drinking a lot more. I want to get back to about 8 and a half stone and a...
