Thanks a lot Taz, will ring my leader and ask her for the password then. DO you know if there are any makes of burger etc that are syn free, thinking if the weather stays like this it would be nice to have a few more BBQ's and while chicken kebabs are ok would be nice to have a mixture. Also...

Well I did the dead and joined SW yesterday morning and feeling really upbeat about it! Have been struggling with WW for the last 2 years and only ever really yo-yoing so I am hoping the change of diet will help me, have done SW in the past with success so I know it works. Now the question is...

Wowee well done you that's great going! How long were you doing the CD and did you find you gained a great deal swapping from CD to SW can I ask how you went about it if you don't mind. I have done 8 days of SS and lost about a stone but I am sick of it, sick of the shakes, sick of the tiredness...

Morning all - day 6 here and over the moon having had a weigh in last night so very much focused for this week. In the main I split my packs so that I can have 6 drinks during the day, that way it's only a coupld of hours in between each shake. Also find that making up a whole one is too much...

Fantastic - well done you :-)

Thanks everyone I really am over the moon and it has definitely made me want to carry on with it. Roll on the 12's I say :-)

:):):):) I AM SOOOOO HAPPY!!! :):):):) 5th Day of SS today and so far so good, was in Ketosis late Thursday but for some reason was really hungry on Friday :confused: got through that and was pleased with myself. Last night was not so good, was fed up with my son for misbehaving while out...

Thanks Goolian, I was on a similar estimation, had a 500ml bottle but wasn;t sure if it was so wanted to check but my measuring jug didn't do litres but pints and it took nearly a pint to fill it, so if i have had 6 of those bottles that's about 3 litres - woo hoo!

Hello :-) Going well here, day 1 and had half a choc mint shake about 9a.m. and half a choc tetra about 1 having the other half shortly and about 6 pints of water - how many pints to a litre?! Hope the week is good for you.

Oh bugger - that's a good start then had a cup at work, but won;t be in ketosis yet as it's first day but will remember that and steer well clear - thanks :-)

Thanks Jenza, will be carefull with the excercising etc as can't afford to be ill, got too much to do in the ext couple of weeks before hol. Hope I can get to at least 13 dead before my hols, was supposed to be 12 but that's not going to happen now!

Thanks Sara - sounds like you are in the right place to to do it this time. I would like to get to 12 stone initially so looking at 26lbs to loose and it would be lovely to see it gone now - it's been hanging round too long! Hope you have a good week.

WOWEE Becky that's magnificent loss, god if I could do that I wouldn't be far off where I want to be :-] I will try not to compare then so that I am not dispointed etc. THanks Can you tell me how I get my ticker up - i have it prepared but can't work it ou :-)

Hi everyone and thanks for providing such a great site. I have done CD before but never managed to stick at it for long but the results I got initially were good. But that's history, I'm back and really do want to do it this time. Initially I am aiming to loose as much as possible for my...

Good luck Yummy mummy I am on day 1 too and have only got 2 weeks till I go on holiday so I really need to have at least 2 weeks on it this time, most I have ever done before is 10 day sbut at the moment I feel quite optimistic. I made my ticker for weight loss but can't work out how to get it...

Dumb question I'm sure but is Earl Grey ok then? Thanks - first day on SS!! EEeeek

Thanks for the advice, I really do want to do it, but it just seems so hard sometimes, especially as I am not feeling too great at the same time. Going to CDC tomorrow so will be requesting sme bars which may make it easier too. Well done to you, that's brilliant!

If you have come ou of it? I know this could be how longs a piece of string but is there an average? I have had a bad weekend, feeling really fed up and wanting food. I had a small piece of shortbread yesterday morning and felt soooo sick and izzy almost immediately thought it had really...

Fantastic news, well done, you must feel great!! Keep up the good work!

Wooo hoooo!!! Well done you! Keep up the good work!

Thanks I'lldoit, I'm fine again now. Think it's a mixture of being at work and not having anything as this is where I am alwasy worst on my diets, as have lots of time sitting around and then pick all day. Onwards and upwards, have a delicious mint choc drink to have in a while. Thanks

Thanks all, but can anyone tell me why I am feeling hungry, it's only been the last 2 days and I am in ketosis, was checked last night, but it's bothering me a bit. I want to and will continue with this, but it's harder now that I have felt a bit hungry. Not sure if it's just because I am at...

Good luck for you too Sarah - hope it's good news!

Lost 5lb, was slightly disapointed with it tbh, but then had a good chat with CDC and she assured me that it was a good loss especially as I have actually only been doing it since last Wednesday. So feeling a bit better about it now. Also weighed myself this morning and am 2lb lighter so...

FANTASTIC - well done - hope I can do that well :-)

Thanks Libbie and Not a Drop. Have just had my veggie soup and feel a little better now but tummies still kinda rumbling not torturous but more than it has in the previous days. Oh well. Just get on with some work and keep myself busy. Wondering whether the 790 plan may be better for me...

Thanks guys. I hope you are right and that it's just that I am not fully into Ketosis yet, will ask CDC tonight to see if I can get some sticks to test it etc. It's just weird because the first few days I was totally fine, not hungry, felt ok about it all and then today feel pretty hungry...

Good luck Lynne, my first weigh in tonight too, although I haven't actually completed a full week as I didn't start till last wednesday. Hope you have lost lots :-)

Today is effectively my 6th day oon CD SS, I weighed in last monday but didn't actually start the diet till Wednesday. I have been feeling ok, had a rotten head ache on the Thursday but other than that, pretty much ok, no nasty side effects to tell but equally no massive snese of feeling good...

Thanks all, you have been brilliant and spurred me back on when my motivation was waining a little. Have measured myself just now and feel very positive about it all again now. It's just such a starneg diet to get used to!

Thanks Gillian. Well done, you and Kazz have already talked me out of eating. Will continue as I am. Do you know an answer to the coke question though?

Thankx Kazz, I doubt I will go for the meal to be honest, but just wanted to know if it was like other diets where you could kinda claw one bad day back! It's soo hard for the little ones isn't it, really don't want him to get any negative thoughts about food. When is your weigh in?

Can this be done on SS? Am coming to the end of the first week of SS and whilst I am not hungry I am struggling a little bit with the sort of social side of the diet and also the fact that my little boy keeps asking me what I am having to eat etc. I certainly don't want to put any of my food...

Thanks Laura, glad to hear i am not the only one experiencing any symptoms, although to be fair I am only on day 1 so would be surprised to have any symptoms so soon. How are you finding it? I have been ok today. Had first shake about 11:15 warm choc mint and that was ok, bit frothy but...

Thanks all for your help. I left the water for about 15 mins after it boiled and then made it using just that water and then used a mini blender for it. It was not bad actually, would have liked it to be a bit hotter if I'm honest, also is it supposed to be sort of frothy, like drinking the...

Ahhh right - does microwaving not destroy the nutrients too? The kettle boiled about 15 mins ago so will probably give it a whirl now. Thanks - I hope I like it too !

How long should I leave the water after boiling before making up the shake and do I have to put in some cold water too, or can it all be hot? Sorry to sound so dim, but am about to make up the first ever CD Shake :confused: Thought I would try the mint choc warm as it's turned really cold...

Thanks all, looks like I need to make my first port of call a chemist to get some mouth spray - just in case!! Spose it's a small price to pay for being svelt :-)

Does everyone get it and is it all the time? I am suddenly panicking that I will be billy no mates due to horrendous death breath. I will be this stunning waif having lost loads of weight but no one will want to come near me cos I stink!!!! :rolleyes: So is there anyone out there who...

Wow, that's brilliant stuff, well done you. GOd I hope i can loose that much in 8 weeks :-) Must take some pictures of myself tonight. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks a lot for the help Vicky. Will just go with the flow this week then and maybe ask her about them when I weigh in on Monday. DO you mind me asking how long it has taken you to loose the weight? Can't wait to get going tomorrow now - trying to drink loads of water today too in preparation!

OMG OMG OMG - hope I can follow your lead :-) Amazing, very well done yoU!

Did your cdc give you the sticks to test whether you are in ketosis then? I never got any and wonder if i can get them anywhere else? DO you know?

Thanks Mini and I'll do it, the meeting went well and she basically said exactly as you have, drop carbs now and increase water which i will be doing today and then preparing myself for feeling like the witch from hell for the rest of the week :D Will look at the ticker thing again later at...

Hi there, it's my first week too, although I am not actually starting it until tomorrow as I am working today and need to feel ok. I am excited hearing about all these good weight losses but can't believe it will happen like that for me :confused: All the best! Cupcake

Anything in particular that I should be asking or trying to find out about? I am not planning to start until Wednesday as I will be at work tomorrow and thought it may be easier to start when I have three days off. Does everyone suffer the horrible symptoms I have read about during the first...
