I used to be very blonde as a child but my hair started to darken as I got older so I had it highlighted. I stopped bleaching it about 9 years ago and have never looked back. My hair is in such great condition and it's now quite long (halfway down my back). I wouldn't go back to blonde in all...

Last time i loved the Oriental Chili soup, this time it's the tomato. Last time I adored the butterscotch shakes, this time it's the chocolate ones! I've got all sorts of flavours in the cupboard though so I regularly try things I'm not so keen on in the hope that my taste buds are changing!

Sounds like you're well and truly in Ketosis. As the others have said, the colour may change depending on how much you've had to drink, but once you're in the pink you're burning your own fat stores and well on the way to being slim!

There are so many reasons..! 1) So I can feel happy about the way I look again 2) To become a yummy mummy rather than a tubby mummy 3) I don't want to be the fat sister/friend anymore 4) To look like the woman my husband first fell in love with 5) To give me more energy to keep up with the...

Morning. It's nice here too this morning. I've been sat out in the garden having a (black) tea with a friend while she sat and devoured the biscuits my husband bought over the weekend; I just wanted them gone! I've had a litre of water so far and two cups of black tea. I've got my first...

On 790/810 I lost on average 4lbs a week but I think it varies person to person and also depends on how much you have to lose. Sorry for being vague, but it's not quite as black and white as SS.

I fell off the wagon this weekend too. We're only human *sigh*. Just get straight back on it again and don't let it ruin your week.

Chocolate coffee sounds good though - I could really do with a mocha right now so I'll stock up on some tetras next week and give it a go.

Sounds like you're off to a flying start Sumayyah. Good work!

10lbs in 5 days? OMG! That's FANTASTIC! You must be thrilled.

I've recently switched CDC's due to moving house. My current CDC is my third and not one of them has charged me a joining fee although my first CDC was a nightmare and tried selling me 4 packs a day, plus bars, plus water flavourers all from the word go. Her 'support' was a text message saying...

Claire, how has your first day been so far?

Thanks Bluemoon. It's just frustrating and I'm annoyed with myself. It doesn't help that I've got my first offial weigh in tomorrow and it's not looking good.

Thanks Princessbunny. I've been kepping myself distracted by getting some jobs done around the house and I've just had my second pack. Still glugging the water but not had anywhere near as much as I wanted to try and drink.

Today has been an ok day. I've got to get through cooking pizza for the family's tea yet though and I'm craving chocolate which is nothing new for me! Still, I've got two more CD meals to get through yet so they should hopefully tide me over.

Thanks yvonne. It's just frustrating that I was acheiving so much and then yet another weekend hits and it all goes down the pan. I've had a litre of water and my first shake of the day... I just keeping telling myself that I will make it to bedtime today without anything non-CD passing my lips!

I was doing so well on 810. Had managed to get my water intake to over 3 litres this week and had lost 11lbs in 2 and a half weeks, including one weekend that went to pot (was my son's 5th birthday the first weekend that I started and I ended up eating party food and cake, and blew the entire...

How are you doing today? Did you manage to shift last night's headache?

Can I join in? I've been doing 810 for the past 2 weeks but want to now move on to SS. I've not had an evenign meal yet and still have two shakes to go, so today would be a great day for me to start. ETA: Put me down for 10lbs please!

Feathers, I did CD for 2 months last Autumn and didn't do very well at all. My head really wasn't in the right place and I ended up packing it in at the beginning of December. I did lose about 15lbs and put back 8lbs of that over the following 6 months, which could've been a hell of a lot worse...

:talk017:Oh that's excellent Liz

Feathers, Like you I'm nervous that I won't be able to do this, but on the other hand if we don't do it THIS time we're only prolonging the agony! 1 tetra and 3 pints of water is a great start to the day, as is going to the gym (you're a better woman than I am, there's no way I could manage...

My next weigh in is Monday 30th June, so I'll have done three weeks by then. She weighed me about 10 days ago and her scales were weighing about 4lbs heavier than mine (I weighed in at home at 15st and half a lb, and she weighed me as 15 st 4.5lb). My start weight, at home, was 15lb 5lbs which...

I restarted CD two weeks ago tomorrow. In all honesty, I'm not doing that great. I can't get my water intake above 2.5 litres and there's no way on earth I can manage SS. I'm doing the 810 plan but I'm not losing anywhere near what I should as I'm having a meal a day over the weekends, with the...
