Hi all, Just wanted to know if anyone else struggles when its cold, and what you do to over come it. I did have a small blip yesterday, I ve put it done to being so cold but would like to overcome it in future. I did try having more hot drinks, and savoury drink as well as my shakes hot. Also...

Thanks both. I was getting in a bit of a tizzy about it.

Ive been 100% for four weeks just drank pepsi max (half a can) in error. Would this take me out of ketiotis.

Thanks for all your advice, going to take a print out of what i can eat and have 3 packs too

Hi I've been 100% since 2nd jan, I'm due to go to butlins in 2 weeks for a long weekend with a friend and our children. The problem is its breakfast and evening meal I'm happy not to have breakfast the problem is the evening meal. I plan to have three packs and a little evening meal meat and...

Well done. I'm also on my third week 100% too but haven't weighed yet.

Hi I have been doing this for 2 weeks now 100%, but im having a big problem with the heartburn (didnt have it before the plan). Does anyone else suffer from this and how or what are you doing to ease it, thanks in advance.

Well done thats fab, I hope I do that well.

Morning all Well day 1 again, as jumped on the scales and had a shock, so first shake down. Any advice on how to get throught the 1st week would be great.

day 2 100% still not getting my hopes up as early days yet.

thanks jo, so far so good, think i will have a early night to avoid temptation.

Well i'm back again after a 2 week break. Just went totally of the rails and ate everything in site, not even sure why, I think I just went into rebelous mode (I want it, so why cant I). Not going to get on the scales as for me this will be too damaging. Before I was having a kebab each week...

Losing 10lbs is fantastic, well done. Just think if you hadnt been doing packs or even ww or sw you wouldnt of lost that much.

Day 2 completed 100%, im just taking one day at a time. Come on Jo you know you can do it.

well done thats a great lose im on day 29, fell of for a little while, but back on now, I dont weigh weekly but will on friday.

day 28 yesterday (think im getting confused with my days, need to write it on the calender) honk honk honk was 100%. Do have one problem is anyone getting cramp, only getting it in the one leg and its agony. Ive upped my water and its still the same. Any ideas.

thanks jo, it seems so much harder when you fall of the wagon. why do we do it?

Well done for getting back on it. It is hard getting back on the wagon Im doing the same at the moment, but we will both get there. It can only make us stronger. (or insane for staying on the packs longer than needed).

Keep up th good work, specially with a cold, I tend to feel sorry for myself then give in.

day 20 100% Well I havent been on for a few days as I have been feeling guilty as I havent stuck to the plan. So hopefully today will be the start of a new beginning. Even stayed 100% today.

well done and good luck

Keep strong and you will do it. Good luck

Well done so far, have you tried putting coffee in your strawberry shake it is really nice.

Well done 124 you are doing so well, and great news about the clothes and cuddles.

day 21 100% Just realised I have done week 3 and now entering week 4, what a plonker I am. So roll on week 4.

Day 20 100% (more focused now) Had a fab day and stuck to it 100%. We have all been to the cinema, which if Im honest was hard with the smell of popcorn and everyone having sweets, but I stuck to my dr pepper. Tomorrow I will be entering my third week I really didnt think i would get this...

Day 19 75% Had a great day shopping today but yet again went out for lunch, and also shared a pudding, really need to nip this in the bud before I am eating every day (which I dont want, as need to lose the weight). Going to do 100% tomorrow and get back on track.

Day 18 75% but my choice Been shopping today around a garden centre and it took much longer than expected (well there was 3 of us and we all love our plants). We decided to have lunch out which was ok by me, so we went to the harvester and im really pleased with myself as I only had half to...

My plan is to do ww as soon as I get to goal, to keep me on track. I think weighing regularly is the way forward.

Ive had both constipation and the runs, both do pass after a few days. (no pun intended). As for the tasting I dont, as I know I would want more.

Its not cheating, its a choice and sometimes life does get in the way. I know it will be hard but why dont you leave it longer to weigh so that way you know you will see a loss.

I went to Egypt for christmas and went in the sea, if I had watched the shark programme before I went I dont think I would of been that keen.

Hi 124 I know exactly how you feel about becoming a different person as when I lost my weight orginally the first time, I didnt cope very well with all the compliments and attention I was getting, as I have not been used to it. When I spoke to my LL leader about it she said are minds take...

Day 16 and 17 100% Well what can I say I feel absoulty amazing at the moment, managed to buy a regatta coat (which fitted) and which I have wanted for a long time. :D And my jeans are feeling a lot looser. Just cooked a roast for the family and that hasnt bothered me at all. I think my head...

Day 15 and 100% have been really busy today cleaning the house, top to bottom. I do feel whacked now, ready for my bed.

Hi I think day 5 is the worst, just hang in there. Try and keep busy, maybe have a bath or paint your nails. Just remember why you are doing this. You will feel so much better tomorrow.

Fantastic - good luck with week 2

thank you jo

Day 14 100% Well today I decided to weigh as its been a fortnight and I wasnt disappointed I lost 14.5lbs. So thats my first stone gone, yeeeeeees. Stuck to it 100% today and can honestly say that I had to remind myself that I must have them. (Never had to remind myself to eat before). Feel on...

Day 14 100% Well today I decided to weigh as its been a fortnight and I wasnt disappointed I lost 14.5lbs. So thats my first stone gone, yeeeeeees. Stuck to it 100% today and can honestly say that I had to remind myself that I must have them. (Never had to remind myself to eat before)...

Good luck on your journey, I look forward to reading your diary.

thats fantastic well done

Day 12 and 13 Well yesterday wasnt 100% but I choose it that way, I have decided instead of doing 1 week of food, (week 5) I will have a chicken shish kebab on a saturday night. I will let you know how it goes. Has anyone else done the diet like this? I had a toffee and nut bar and was...

I cant see why not as you could with LL.

day 11 Well feeling a lot better today, heartburn cleared up and feeling I have more energy. The only downside I have today is when I have my shake, I need the loo instantly, and its very runny. Has anyone else experienced this.

Im also on day 10, like you too ive done LL and lost weight and gained it, so now have 5 stone to lose. Ive not weighed yet, trying to leave it as long as possible, so I dont get too hung upon it. Keepup the good work.

day 10 So far so good, 100%. Just been so cold and no energy, but at least the heartburn has gone. (hopefully for good). I think it will be a early night with hotties just to keep warm.

Well done on your lose. Also very interested about the jellies tell me more.

Well done 124 you are doing fab. My children are the same, they cant understand why they cant have a flapjack to (bar).

I used to get that with the banana shake, awful windy tummy.

Day 9 Today has been a real struggle, just havent had any energy and just cant get warm. Still suffering with the heartburn, tried bic of soda but no joy, its really getting me down, Im even thinking if I eat something it might clear it. (is this crooked thinking). Still got one pack left...

So its week 5 you do this. By eating and keeping to the rules do you go out of k. I remember something on LL that they advised you had to add milk to your shakes, cant remeber what week, but you didnt have to if you didnt want to.

Im on day 8 and havent weighed yet, thought I might go fortnightly but will see how it goes.

Forgot to mention what a fantastic idea.

I just want to gain my confidence back, as you do such much more when you are confident, nothing seems to hold you back. Where as when you are big you hold back just in case it doesnt fit, or you might break it, or people will laugh at the big person doing it. As well as keeping up with my boys.

well done thats fantastic keep up the good work. If weighing each day works for you, whats the harm in it.

Today I have again stayed 100%. I did find it hard going around tescos, seeing all the nice temptations, but did resist. Like I said I would I did my exercise dvd so thats another step forward. I still have this awful heartburn, hopefully tomorrow it will start to get better. Another...

Well done for getting this far, it is hard going back to food at its like forbidden fruit. But if we stick to a healthy way and not how we used to (junk food) it will be fine. Good luck

Day 8 Just had my 1st shake of the day, hot banana with coffee which was yummy. (did i actually say that). Going to try and do a exercise video today. Didnt have a great night as been suffering from heartburn, I cant remember having this with LL, is this normal and what can be done to stop it?

Hi, just read your diary, your poor son, hopefully 3rd time no problems. Keep up the good work you are doing great. xx

Day 7 Well I have managed to resist the urge to weigh myself, so it will be fortnightly now. Up till now (and sure it will last) have had another 100% day. Tried to keep busy by doing housework, just so im not tempted. Does anyone get a sicky feeling in the morning? I just feel I need...

I also dont sleep very well, just keep tossing and turning and waking up at 6am. arghhhhh

Thank you for being supportive, I have managed to stick to it 100% today, even managing to cook a full roast for the family. Still undecided weather to weigh weekly or fortnightly, if weekly it would be tomorrow. Just worried that I might get complacent, if i know i have lost some.

Im glad im not the only one who struggles in this forum, finding things. Well done for your lose.

Well I didnt have a great day yesterday, i struggled all day and eventually gave in to a chicken shish kebab (but didnt eat the pitta), a piece of garlic cheese pizza and a few chips. I dont know why I found it so hard, is this normal for day 5, if i was in k would i still b in it now. I...

well done thats fantastic

Well Im so proud of myself and stayed strong and didnt give in to temptation. Even had people round for tea, but just dished up theirs then got on with pottering the kitchen. Thanks for the encouragement.

wow thats fantastic,hope i do that well

thanks but how do you get it on your profile

Day 4 Well today is going to be a challenge, as going into town today, and normally we go somewhere for lunch. Hoping I can stay strong and not give in (always go with this intention, but its so easy to say just this once). Will let you know how I get on.

Im new to all this could someone please tell me how to put or even where to put the ticker and goal points on a diary. thanks in advance:confused:

Hi, as ive read a few of your diaries I felt I should do one myself. (might even help). Im 35 years old and have 3 boys (sorry 2 boys and 1 husband, who sometimes acts like a child). After losing 5 stone on LL I have managed to put it back on within 2 years, but determined this time to keep it...

Im finding ok so, Ive done LL in the past so I know it works if you stick to it. (easier said than don though). I have now tried all th shakes and bars and I like them all, but do find that the banana one goes straight through me (as on LL). I hope to set up a diary, hopefully it will be easy...

Keep up the good work, you know you can do it.
