15lbs in a month is brilliant!

I wish with all my heart that Harry potter was like England! Haha ;)

The unsweetened soya I get is asda smart price only about 60p for a litre and it's only 0.5g carbs per 250ml. It's in the UHT section. I wouldn't recommend eating bananas on Atkins, lots of sugar in them.

The tanita scales I got from amazon are brilliant. They measure your body fat and water percentage too

I'm almost through my second week or induction and my god my breath stinks! It's worse when I eat cheese for some reason lol. No smelly wee though!

Lis that is amazing! You have such a small waist!

Hahaha oh right! Lady that made me giggle! :D

Haha think happy thoughts :)

Thank you deb :) those are the linseeds I bought but I thought it was a UK pack so didn't work out net carbs. I thought as much with the bicarb, silly me! Thanks deb :)

Out of curiosity, what are pollytrots?

Noooo! You must persevere!

A few people have mentioned the head down thing! Apparently my face looks thinner and I've only lost 7lbs so far!

Woop! I don't know why buy Wednesday just feels right :p

Just thought I'd share! I weigh in on a wed as I started a week ago yesterday. Lost 6.5lbs that week! So chuffed! Could have lost another 0.5 to make it half a stone but hey ho, not complaining! Just hope I can keep it up for week 2!

I keep making MiM's but they always seem to taste really bitter! I think it's because I'm using bicarb instead of baking powder, does this matter? Also, the seeds I'm buying aren't very low carb, the ground flax seed I first used was 7g c per 25g and the golden linseed I used was the same. Both...

Well done you!! :D

I think I need some!

Do they have a lot of flavour?

Thank you wrinkly and Mary!

I'm not sure, whichever they sell in asda just ground flax seed, it does look quite brown. Is there anywhere else I can get some?

I just made a MiM and it was awful! It was really bitter! Is this just what flaxmeal tastes like or have I made it wrong haha

Ah thanks :)

Where is the recipe for cheeseburger pie?

Hahaha wouldn't have it any other way!

This is really amazing! You've done so well you look like a different person!

That's so pretty :) I want to get 'born this way' tattooed somewhere, I'm a bit of a gaga freak!

Sounds good! Thanks Claire I will try these :)

It's about the only thing I can think of that I can have on induction that is sweet! I'm desperate for chocolate! Does anyone have any other induction friendly sweet treats? (preferably chocolate ones!)

That doesn't sound bad at all, you're doing a good job! Keep it up your scales will catch up :)

I'm having a cup of soy milk which I've stuck in the microwave for a couple of mins and added a spoonful of cocoa powder and a spoonful of granulated sweetener It takes like chocolate ready brek! Not exactly a bar of galaxy but it hits a little spot! The soy milk I have is Asda UHT organic...

They help me stay on track when I know I'm in keto

I've noticed I have been very thirsty! Why don't you invest in some ketostix?

I hope so. Just done a stick and I'm in keto! Very pleased just after one day! I must have been worse than I thought over Christmas!

Thank you to you both! Day one has gone well! Haven't manage to have three square meals, more like a protein shake, cheese a couple of packets of pork scratchings and a steak! Promise I will prepare something for tomorrow! Still feels a little too good to be true! Am not going to weigh until...

Wow they look amazing!

Very interested in cauli tots! Whatever they are haha Has anyone tried those shirataki noodles? I'm desperate to get my hands on some!

Ah thanks Katie! I will try my hardest and keep you updated! I think the book is right when it states right at the beginning make sure you read it all first. A lot of people think 'okay Atkins, time for fried eggs and steaks!' its a lot different to what I expected!

Oh right! I was thinking along the lines of something much less attractive! Haha! Thank you :) I hope she pays a visit soon!

As suspected, my weight has crept back up again! So I have just finished my first induction shop (my trolley was very green) but I think other than the occasional chicken breast and protein shake, I will have some trouble fitting enough protein in. Will this affect my weight loss? Also, any...

Can I just ask, what on earth is a whooshie? Haha

so amazing :)

you are amazing! seriously inspiring.

wow! you may just see me running around peterlee then! :p

im not surprised! how much did you pay for it?

oh i've never heard of it :/

a couple of years ago, i started eating healthily and using the wii fir for about 2 or 2 1/2 hours a week. and i lost 2 stone in about 3 month, so yeah i guess it does something. better than sitting on your bottom!

Well it's day 5 of CD! I wish I had a kinect like you hadgy!

I used to get weighed about 5 times a day! My boyfriend has now taken them off me so I can only get weighed once a week which is good because then you can see a more significant weight loss rather than just little bits of pounds. And it also means I'm a bit excited for Mondays!

lol i cant believe so many people from peterlee are here. are any of you doing CD?

yeah that it! we all want to do it, its a massive struggle but you're strong enough :)

thank you mary! i can see this is a lovely place to be already, never been so happy while losing weight!!

that really is amazing!

im on day 3 too, im feeling okay today, not felt hungry much. stay strong you can do it! its worth it for the results, just try and drink some water or maybe a black coffee, will fill you up a bit chin up :):) xx

as if! facebook?

found you :D

i cant see any pics and i really want to seeee!!

if thats the case i should be tiny! ;)

oh wow! do you have facebook or anything?

chocolate is not real! if it does not exist i cannot eat it! haha :)

lol i know how you feel! almost on my 4th litre!

oh my i bet it does! im guna stick to ss for 4 weeks or maybe just the two. my CDC charges 38 for the week but exante is 100 for 4 weeks at 3 packs a day which is ideal! im currently very much craving chocolate :( xx

oh my god will they even recognise you?!

1 Step is better than no steps! Exante is just like cambridge but its cheaper and you can buy it online :) google it ! xx

1 step is better than no steps! exante is just like cambridge but you can order is online and its a lot cheaper is you buy in bulk. I've only just found out about it from being on here a few days xx

hi hadgy im pretty new too, and also from the Durham area! Good luck with losing the lbs xx

i've just ordered a bumper pack of exante that im going to use after 4 weeks on CD. day 2 going well! might even make it to the end of the week ;)

can i just ask quickly, do you lot excercise while on CD?

oh god i've never owned a bikini! day one over day two begins :)

thank you guys. i've started CD so hopefully my weekly meeting with my councillor will spur me on!

halfway through my first day now, im very hungry but i will stay strong lol

Well done! I hope I see results like yours. Yeah I'm going to aim for 4 weeks. Let's see how we get on! Keep us posted on your results.

i've just joined this forum and had a long look through this thread. It's amazing, i can only dream to see results like this!

Hi all! I am starting CD tomorrow for the 2nd time! only lasted 4 days last time as I got burgled and fell way off track! That was a while ago though so back on it tomorrow :) Well done Michelle that's awesome! I hope I lose that much in a week!

i've always thought about joining a group but i wouldnt want to go alone for the first few times lol!

Hellooo My name's Catherine, I'm literally brand new here. Been on and off diets for a few years now but now I'm sticking to healthy eating and excercise. But, I've noticed a lot have you are losing 4-7 lbs a week! How!! Also, what on earth is the dust diet? thank you! xx
