    Which shakes does everyone prefer?

    And I think your tastes change as you go along, so be careful of bulk ordering one particular flavour in case you suddenly go off it.

    Which shakes does everyone prefer?

    I love the chocolate and strawberry, I also like the vanilla warm with a spoonful of coffee. I used to love the cottage pie but OD'd on it and now I can't bear the thought of it lol

    Dear colleagues...

    ...yes, I agree, my meal pack doesn't look particularly appetising, but y'know, it's my lunch, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't peer into the bowl while making retching noises. ...no, I don't feel hungry, it's one of the side effects of ketosis. No, you're confusing it with ketoacidosis...

    Cant stomach the taste of packs? Help!

    My tastes keep changing, unfortunately that means I'm stuck with a pile of cottage pie meal packs that I can't even bear to look at, never mind eat lol

    Frozen feet!

    I've had constantly cold hands and feet since starting the diet! In fact I'm constantly cold full stop. I'm sat here wrapped in a fleece blanket like a little old lady!

    Monday weighers

    Sounds like you've made the best decision...at the end of the day it doesn't matter how you do it, as long as the weight comes off for good! Good luck to you too x

    let me eat my spaceman food in peace!

    "Urgh what's that?" "It's not healthy you know, doing a crash diet" "It won't work, you're just starving yourself" And my personal favourite...if I had £1 for every time I've heard this I wouldn't have to go to work full stop!..."You'll only pile all the weight back on as soon as you start...

    Monday weighers

    Fantastic losses from everyone! I was a bit miffed at 'only' losing 3lbs this week...but that's a total of 1st 7lbs in 4 weeks so I can't really complain :-)
  14. M

    Monday weighers

    Well done to you too! I'm doing 4 packs - I find it easier to remove all 'proper' food and just stick with the packs. I do enjoy my daily cottage pie or chilli though :-)

    My first week on Slim and Save

    ...and I've lost 10lbs!!! I've successfully done the Cambridge Diet (twice :-( ) before, both times losing 5-6st, but although I managed to keep the weight off for a while, both times I've slipped back into my old ways and put lots of weight back on. I decided to try S&S as I'm a nurse so...

    Why Can't I Stick To SW Again?!

    Bugsbunny do you have a target to aim for? I always find it easier to stick to plan when I've got a 'reason' to lose weight. This year I've got a lovely holiday to look forward to - I've got a picture of the villa stuck to the fridge to motivate me, plus I can't wait to shop for holiday clothes...

    should i try green days?

    When I've been to group in the past I have heard several people mention that doing purely green days slowed their losses down. However before EE was introduced I used to do mainly green days and always had decent losses. They're great if you're not a big meat eater, cheaper too, and you can...

    DOING SW FROM HOME???

    That's a really good idea. DH surprised me with a beautiful Links of London bracelet at Christmas so may have to suggest the charm idea to him ;). Get yourself a new bracelet!(or even better get someone else to get you one ;) )

    Whats for tea tonight?

    Fish pie from the extra easy cookbook. It uses every pan in the house and takes approximately 17 days to make but it's worth the effort - definitely one to make on a day off!

    Well I'm ashamed to say my restart did not go to plan :sigh:. I was intending to do SW from home by myself, but I think I need the discipline of getting weighed weekly. So I've decided to join online - at least I know I have to input my weight every week - and if I've paid for it I'm more...
