    Sexy Boots - I'm coming to get you!

    Lol I get strange remarks every shift at work. A lady I never speak to because she is really rude and snobby said today' do you know you have lost weight' then shook her head and walked away. I am always asked if my husband likes me better now which I find really insulting and I hear people...

    Thanks. Think those days I will up my protein. His my inner thighs are sore today, which is fab because they were starting to look flabby so hopefully will start to tone up a bit.

    Need to update stats. Had a 1.2 lb gain today. Just going to plod on and see what happens. Fed up to say the least but hey ho. Hopefully going back to the gym might help things along

    I thought I was making a sensible choice....

    I am not so lucky as some of you. I had a glass of wine, packet of crisps and a few chocolate digestives on Sunday night, gained 2lb had a terrible few days getting back in ketosis was 100% Monday to today and still gained 1lb this week

  7. Hamish's Mum

    I thought I was making a sensible choice....

    I had some biscuits a packet of crisps and a glass of wine on Sunday. I am still 3 lb heavier than last week and weigh in tomorrow. It took me a couple of days to get back into ketosis. The point I am making is that it may not come off quickly but keep at it and it will come off.

    Sexy Boots - I'm coming to get you!

    Went back to the gym today. I stopped going in October because people said it would slow my weight loss and not to go exercise on a VLCD. Anyway my weight is just about stalled never lost anything last week and looks like a gain even tomorrow so decided to go back. Really enjoyed it but decided...

    Thanks ladies. I am still plodding away but things seem to be slowing right down. STS last week but still have to update my stats. People are starting to annoy me with my weight loss.

    How do you deal with the well meaning sabotagers?

    Yesterday at work I was asked if I was diet obsessed. I have never discussed my diet unless someone asked me if I was on one and I just say SW. A few people gave told me I don't need to lose anymore but I just smile at them and say I just have a little bit. I don't tell them 2.5 stone it's none...

    "Because I can"

    Why don't you throw away all your fat clothes, then once you start gaining the weight again and have to buy larger sizes you can remind yourself how much better you feel slimmer. I intend keeping this weight off forever. I never want to be as fat as I was again. I have no intention of stuffing...

    The problem you will have without ketosis though is hunger. Chances are you'll feel starving on 900 calories, especially with carbs You need to do what's best for you but I think I agree with noodles

    I still have a few stone to lose and am into week 21 and am 100% but some weeks I lose small amounts, STS or even gain but I don't give up. I don't lose a stone every month more between 8 and 10lbs. It will come off when it's ready

    How often do you drop a dress size?

    It is so different for everyone. It took me about 1.5 stone to drop from a size 20 to an 18, another 1.5 stone to drop to a 16, but already I can feel that some of my 16's are getting too big, but not enough to be a standard 14 in the high street.

    Can it really be that easy?

    I am still amazed that I am going strong and losing weight. I have just adapted things in my life to suit the diet but don't feel deprived at all. I have stopped drinking alcohol and happily go to nights out or parties and drink fizzy water. I am just concentrating on losing every week even if...

    What keeps you motivated?

    I just don't want to fail again. I just keep going one day at a time. I feel so much better now, I look better, fitness is better and am happier and more enthusiastic about life. To me thats worth more than a mini pork pie , a cream cake or a slice of pizza
