I hope things do settle for you soon - it is sometimes difficult not to bring it home with you tho isn't it? Can you point out the unreasonable stuff to anyone?? (I had to admit defeat and pack in nursing after 25years :( ) Stay strong, you are doing amazingly well. xx

Still going great guns with everything I see - you'll be at target and settled in your new home before you know it! xx

You are indeed a :superwoman: I'm doing ok - finding that staying away from the scales is difficult, but definitely feeling better in myself. Reading how well everyone else is doing is really helping...:) And (if we were eating!) I would challenge you to finding out who likes food most!! xx

That is AMAZING!!!! Well done you - A fantastic start and boost to keep you on track for another fabulous week. :happy036: And thanks for your words of encouragement.

Just read your diary from day 1 – WOW! What an amazing inspiration you are – I’m on day 3 today and would be over the moon to be able to stay as focused and on track as you. Loving how positive you remain against the toughest adversities, you have experienced some of the most highly stressful...

Don't know about the acic being a normal side effect - maybe someone else can say? Isn't it great not feeling hungry - I can't believe I cooked 3 different menus for my fussy family this evening and wasn't even bothered!!! Roll on day 3. . .

Hi there, hope your day is going well, all fine here at the moment!

Me too! I was 20 weeks pregnant when I got married and only wore my ring for a couple of weeks too.:cry: Good on you fizzy, you must feel fab!

Hi Dee, stay strong, keep focused, remember all that excitement we were feeling before we started. . . you can do this. One day at a time, I'm sure my enforced starve earlier in the week has helped me through the worst part already as I can honestly say that for the first day in my life I...

Good luck to you too - will be thinking of you!

To be able to wear my engagement and wedding rings again. To be able to wear my wetsuit and go windsurfing again. To be able to run in the mum's race at school sports day next year! To feel happy about having a family photograph taken. To set a positive example to my children about healthy...

Day 1 for me today - and quite a few others, good luck to team 7/7!!!! Sue x

Go ahead and enjoy yourself - You'll still be motiviated to give it your best shot after the weekend. I've done low carb while waiting for delivery (and a couple of days of fluids only because of hospital tests) and I've lost 11.5lb in 10 days!!! Sue x

I think I'll start with a Banana shake this morning - now begining to wonder if I should have gone for the mixed box as Thai soup sounds lush!!! Good luck for day 1. Sue x

To be honest my delivery was delayed so I'm only due to start the food packs today! Have been on a very low carb/few days of fluids only for the past 10 days because of hospitals tests which are complete now and all ok so thought I would continue as I've lost 11.5lb already!!!

Thanks Starlight, I am afraid to talk about it because people seem to have such strong (negative) opinions - just a case of employing self-discipline to maintain a healty lifestyle on reaching target I think. Sue x

Good evening folks, I just want to rant really! I've had a day in hospital today for which I had to starve since Sunday so had decided to start Exante tomorrow. Got home to find an email saying I'd have to re-arrange my delivery as when they came there was no-one home. THIS IS A LIE!!! My...
