Well, after having one night off ccing for my husbands bday last week, it turned into a week off :( haven't weighed, but am back on track today, hoorah, lol! I think the best thing for me is to have very low cal meals, like today had a fillet of bass fish for 97 cals, filling and left me lots of...

Wow emz well done, sounds like u are really commuted. Keep us updated :)

You've obviously kept your willpower for a year and a half and that's amazing! Mine never hangs round for more than 2 weeks at a time :( perhaps you're happy with the weight you are now (just subconsciously maybe)? :)

Well done everyone! I've lost 2lbs this week, so that's 6lbs altogether and 6 left to lose by valentines :) could someone update for me if they get a chance please as cannot copy and paste in my phone app xx

Nice one, well done :) I'm having a Chinese too, woo hoo! If only I could have a bottle of wine with it too! Xx

Thanks emz, just annoyed as was feeling so smug with myself for doing so well lol. But I know it's best to just get back on it, I've normally given up at this point! How are you doing on rc, when do you go up to 1400 cals? X

Thanks rowan, that's good to know :) and 70lbs wow! You're right about the steps forward, just need to remember that x

Thanks Hun, know you're right, just needs someone else to say it sometimes! Would like to know how others deal with lapses too....

Just had a bit of a lapse and feel really disappointed in myself :( have done so well for 11 days, much better than I have on any diet before but just felt starving all of a sudden and ate sweets and crisps! Also going out for a meal for my husbands bday tomorrow so that won't help. Has anyone...

3lbs every week for four months is amazing! You should be proud :)

How long have you been losing 3lbs a week for hun? If it's a while your body may have slowed down and you might have a good loss next week.

Well done, half way there with level 1 :) all I've done is walk round asda today!!

Well done on getting through your first day:) I've managed to find lots of nice low cal snacks in the last few weeks (including sweets and choc) so if you want a list give me a shout! I find it easier to have low cal meals and quite a few snacks!

Much respect for starting before Christmas the moog!! I couldn't have done it!

Hello :) I'm on day 10 and it really does get easier i think. My stomach seems to be shrinking already which is good! It's just getting used to new habits, good luck!

Brill, thanks :)

Off the back of the salad question could someone please help with chicken breast calories 100g (no skin)? Can't seem to find a definitive answer anywhere! Thanks :)

Hello, just wondering if anyone counts the cals in salad? I do in all fruit and veg such as sprouts, carrots etc but not sure whether to with onions, tomatoes etc as think they are almost nothing? Do you count veg cals if you're doing Rosemary Conley? Thanks xx

5lbs fab! The shred is obviously working, I haven't made it past day one yet lol!

Thanks cee-cee, well done on your loss!

My weigh in this morning, first one, lost 4lbs, happy with that :) I can't copy and paste from my phone but that means 8lbs left by valentines day.

Not sure about the milk calories sorry as I don't use it. All the rest looks right though, it might be worth counting the actual veg calories if you want to be spot on but they are low in cals so it's up to you :)

Love your lunch substitute by the way, randoms, a girl after my own heart lol.

Well done emz! I'm doing well too but weigh in tomorrow so will update. Have not done shred since the other day, done lots of walking though so better than nothing. Hope you're feeling better :)

I love the boots shapers bars - chocolate and strawberry or chocolate mint, 84 calories each. Also tesco black olive mini twists (like cheese straws) 120 cals for 12, really nice! Anyone know where they sell snack a jack popcorn now as can't find it anymore? Ooh and mini bags of jelly tots 96...

That's brilliant. My sister in law is on them and doing well but not losing as fast as you, well done!

Well done everyone :) my weigh in is tues so will update then. Katy - how did you manage 18lbs in two weeks? Wow!

Day 3, well done! I've just done level 1 for the first time and can't say I enjoyed it but will try and keep at it. Not so keen on my body wobbling when I do the jumping jacks lol. And I used to be an aerobics instructor until I was pregnant three years ago (hangs head in shame!) now I'm...

Hi emz, thanks and a buddy would be great :) ! Am doing well so far, yesterday was my first hurdle as I was at work where I sit on a reception for 7 hours and normally eat for most of that but managed to have a few low cal snacks instead! Trying to keep my eye on the prize and that is to not be...

Thanks for adding me on :)

Thanks for the replies, think a board like this really helps with motivation! Sounds like everyone is doing really well with cc. I'm finding my fitness pal is really keeping me on track too :) am off to tesco now to get some hand weights so I can have a go at the 30 day shred! First weekend on...

For some reason I can't copy and paste from the thread, might be because I use the iPhone app. But I'm in anyway! :)

Thanks :) really hoping I can stick to this, am so fed up of weight watchers, slimming world etc, cc seems much more flexible! I've posted on the challenge thread to join if that's ok.

Hi would it be ok if I join too please? Will aim for 12lbs by valentines day :) thanks

Hello, just wanted to say hi. Have been calorie counting for 3 days now (after one day of slimfast bleugh!) this board looks great for support so will keep checking in. I have about 3 stone to lose but would be happy with 2 and ecstatic with 4 lol! Today seems to be the easiest for me so far so...

Yeah I'm going to go for it with tins of tomatoes (hate beans lol!) am going to download it on my iPhone - will be small to watch but have no excuse not to do it then when my toddlers watching a peppa pig DVD! :)

Hiya, I'm new to this board and thinking about getting this DVD. Do you need hand weights though? Thanks :)

Thanks :) hope I can!

Just thought I'd post to day I got through the first day yesterday :) found it a bit tough in the afternoon and tried to keep busy but hoping I will get used to it and find it easier! Changing old habits is hard I suppose but I do feel determined so fingers crossed!

Do you mind adding me too? Kayemm 12lbs to lose, none list as yet?

Just had a look online and they seem to have had quite good press. I would be tempted to try them if they were a tenner but for £30 I think I'll give it a miss for now! :)

Hello I would like to take part too if I can? I'm new to this site :) would like to lose 12lbs by the 1st feb too! Will we be updating weekly?

Thanks for your reply, that's really helpful :) 40lbs wow, that's amazing! Do you mind me asking how much you want to lose? No worries if you don't want to say :) I do feel ready for something like this as I'm so fed up of feeling rubbish and swinging between diets that i cant stick to. Also, do...

Hello, I'm a newbie here and am starting slimfast tomorrow. If I can stick to it for a few days I will 'treat' myself to exante! Just a few questions if anyone can help please: I have a bmi of about 32 and about 3 stone to lose - what's the average weight loss in the first 6-8 weeks? Is it ok to...

Hello everyone, I'm a newbie to minimins too although not to diets I'm afraid! I have about 2 to 3 stone to lose and am starting slimfast tomorrow so will try to post on here daily. Would be great to hear how others are doing too :)
