Hahaha - Each to their own Saffron, each to their own! :O) Met my new CDC today and she was really nice. Very organised (unlike me!) so hopefully some of that will rub off on me!. Have managed to get a couple of litres down me today - so will continue until 9pm when I will not drink anymore...

Friday Feeling Morning all. :bliss: Ive just downed my first shake and must say it wasn't too bad - although I have to go get some ice... the tap water alone just ain't cutting it! So thats the first bit out the way - avoiding the toast - which I've achieved so woohoo! Have to go to my...

Hmmm See I was all full of respect until I saw POMPEY supporter and then it all went out the window! :D Generation (as in The Who) (<< Wannabe PC sigh!)

Sounds obvious I know but if you really want to help and feel you are making a HUGE difference - get a Donor Card. The anguish these people go through is tremendous - its a hard thing to do but as my husband pointed out to me - id expect it for my child so therefore I should give myself! No...

Hi Ellie Bring it on eh! We can spur each other on with pictures of our intended destinations! Just imagine our head being totally free of "fat" feelings and just enjoying a holiday - wow I haven't done that for donkeys years - dunno about you. Can't wait to go away a slimbe - so we can...

Hi all Ive restarted more times than you can shake a stick at!! :fyi: :cry: BUT I have a great incentive - weve just booked a villa holiday to Cala D'or in Mallorca - its exactly 10 weeks away tomorrow and I think I need that to get down to a weight where I feel ON TOP OF THE WORLD. Cos I...

Hi all. Can I just add that Mike is very true to his word! A while ago now (was it that long ago my toes have only just recovered lol) A few of us on here did the GSR in Portsmouth a very very very wet day in October. Mike - having lost his weight, still stayed with me and walked the whole...

Sidewalk - good luck im going to restart too tomorrow. (I love Cardiff!! by the way lol just a little aside there). Nuts

Hi Nicola I think restarting is the same weightloss just more difficult to get on. Some find it hard to go straight on SS so they start on 790 and then move onto SS. The 790 Allows a small meal of chicken with some green or white veg (see main thread 790) plus shakes during the day. The...

Hello Mike! I was at a friends house the other day (haven't posted on here in an age) and as we were sipping tea I thought "ang on" I know that bloke? The tv had YOU in its frame holding your head in your hands!! I leapt off the sofa screaming - I DID THE GREAT SOUTH RUN WITH HIM! Go for...

Hey You! Good on you for taking one day at a time. Ive decided to to 790 for my challenge for 21/6. (my easter one went to pot!). Ive found that the bars make me want other things so ive knocked them on the head. Im starting again today and am determined to wear a nice dress to Ascot in...

Fire Engine That sounds a fantastic way to get noticed hahahah - I bet thats why they are taking the engine there hahahah. I'll look out for him and give him a shout if I see him. Im excited but as my husband kindly pointed out to me last night "yeah you always say this, Im gonna do this im...

Yeah I bloody laughed too :rotflmao: Firstly let me apologise for just walking off the face of the earth a few weeks ago especially to Kitty and SP. Apologies - I just failed miserably! Today I had a phone call from my mum saying "how do you fancy going to Ascot Ladies Day in June". What...

Hey you. I've not been on for ages as I've slipped big styleee -im going to get back on track on Tuesday after Easter - I will then have a week home with the kids before having to go back to work. At which point I hope to be at least a week into it. Im disappointed with myself as I could...

Muppet Central Yup thats me! Have fallen from grace but I am climbing back on today. Funnily I got the kick I needed from an old boss of many moons ago - he called me yesterday to say they'd won a job in the UK and would I be interested - fabulous! So I sent my CV over. I do work...

Thanks Kit, I do buy Eden Falls too - its nice. Just for some reason I find Peregrino saltier? Odd but true! I have a few bottles of both in the fridge and now some straws which seems to help me. Odd that isnt it! Had a blip, not going to document it too much and dwell on it but im back...

Hi Sugs. Well done! I weighed myself Sat morning and it said 14.5, which is 1 stone 1lb! We are on a winner Sugs! Just need to keep my head down and on the plan, good idea about keeping the bars until the weekend. I cut mine up and make little biscuits out of them in the microwave - just...

Well well well. I got 2 lovely compliments in the space of 24 hours. One of my dads friends came up to me and said "you've lost alot of weight haven't you", well I said im trying and im on my way, well you've started and you're looking good". How nice is that! Then this morning I had "You...

FGS How panickity is that!??? What in 7 days you are gonna decide to suddenly change your personality and rip the company off! Hahahahah, it'll come soon enough I suppose. (But is mad!). Feeling the strain today, I don't feel like i've lost as much as my scales say I have - is that normal...

Hoorah! I've got my new packs (wtf is Cheese/Broccoli about? hahah, im still trying to find either taste in it hahah). Made a Toffee bar into mini biscotti in the microwave and the chocolate didn't melt so was NICE! Something to look forward to. Off out tonight so I feel like i've had a...

Ta muchly Hey Sugs. Will be a test tonight but im glad im not drinking now as the FIL really p'd me off last night. Im 32 for gods sake and he was lecturing me on my old car still sitting on my drive and to make it worse my husband just sat there and let him do it! I was getting rather...

Well I didn't stay away from the scales this morning and according to my dodgy scales i've lost a stone! hmmmm im doubting them so i'll wait until Sunday to see if its right! Would be good though as it means I could be well on my way to feelllllllinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggg goooooooood...

Im feeling a bit crap today. Ive a headache and I went to bed early last night - BUT I know its my own fault and I must get water down me. Funnily - I got a bottle of peregrino water (lovely!) last night and drank it straight away almost a litre. But for a bottle its 89p and there are other...

We most certainly will. I've been a slave to the scales im afraid and am p'ing myself off in the bargain! I get on them hoping for a miracle but they have stuck still - I know im not drinking enough and my faux pas don't help so im hopefully going to get my new packs soon which will give me...

I can Hi Yummy I can see them! :O) I think I know what you mean, I have had the scales say one thing but my clothes aren't feeling as baggy as i'd have liked by now! Enjoy the wrap - looking forward to hearing hoe that goes. Cheers Nuts

Oh and another thing I realised last night. I have never been happy with my body! We got a load of old photos out yesterday and sat laughing and all the ones of me are either mad nutty or me miserable. Every photo I can remember what I was thinking and what I was wearing. So although I...

Hello Cheb!!! How ya doin! I is defo in the pink in fact too pink - must glug more water, but finding it a struggle. Chicken and cheese are passing my lips wayyyyy to often so im going to just trudge along rather than give up and eat anything I like. I wish I had the same mentality as...

Hey Chin up chick - it was like me with my Chicken Casserole moment. I've lost 6lbs too so we are doing brilliantly! Onwards and downwards Puff! We will do it! Nutsxx

Hey Kitty Reading your posts have taken me back to last year Kitty. I had the same problem and felt totally in the middle, i.e. my Dad and my stepbrother (never been brought up to say Step so thats odd!!!). but he is on paper not on lips :O). He and my Dad didn't get on and it was just a...

Vits Hi Sugar You are doing a grand job and don't you worry about the summer because you'll have lost alot of weight before that comes along. If the average is around 1 stone per month, thats at least 3 by May - so you keep your chin up and your eye on the prize - (this is what I am having...

How ya doing Sugs? Weekends are a mare for me - how you doing with it all. Have managed to abstain on a Friday night which is MEGA for me. Hope you feel better today. Its a lovely sunny day here today. Nutx

6lb whoo hoo Hi Kitty Fantastic results with the 100% mt and the 6lb loss - well done you :clap: I got through last night, with only soda water. I was very good. I got on the scales and its looking mighty impressive but im not revealing the results until I pop on them again on Sunday...

:break_diet: Thanks Flirty, we could start the fallen angels club hahaha. I managed to lose 4 odd stone last year on LL, then put it on, took a bit off here and there but eventually back on again. So this time as I am going away for 3 days at Easter and I have no nice casual clothes to wear...

Hi Sugar Oh bless you Sugar, I shouted at my Son yesterday andmy hubby was just looking at me as if to say "wow that was a hairdryer moment". DAY 5, I thought it was 4 so thats a bonus hahahah. Listen the food for the kids thing - it happens to all of us. Me I seem to have forgotten they...

Hi Sugarpuff. Not too bad - thanks for asking. You must be in Ketosis now Sugarpuff, birdcage mouth is a tell tale sign hahaha. 6ltrs - I wish -many people drink this amount and it helps with the losses, i'll be lucky if I manage to drink 3 - but I must start sorting it out. I'll probably...

Thanks Mini! Thanks Mini - I'll try that in a sec. Definitely agree with you there on the picking - was a moment of weakness and for me I did well not to make it a landslide, as you said. On other attempts i've just said "oh sod it i'll start tomorrow" and then eat all night. Get to the...

How do I edit the title to make this a diary in progress? Anyone? I can't blinking remember? :o Night of day 3 and im doing better than I did earlier, picking chicken from the Casserole I made. :rolleyes: :eek: :rolleyes: :break_diet: I've just had my hot chocolate mint and then I...

Spoon! I am such a spoon - I have made a chicken casserole for the hub/kids tonight so what did I do..... eat abit of the chicken out of it! derrrrrrrr Must get out of that mentality - but I'll continue as I have started with the packs, whereas before I would have basically caned the fridge...

Water water Hi ya Well its going good but I am sh1te and drinking the water! Didnt manage more than 3 litres yesterday - terrible! Today have only had a coffee so far - must sort that out and drink some Litres! I like Choc Min - my fave as a hot drink - also Oriental Chilli, Veg with...

Hi Sugarpuff Hi Sugarpuff. Its always a pain when a CDC isn't within easy reach - im sure someone will advise you - have you searched on the Cambridge site for a CDC near you? Perhaps someone will let you purchase 4 weeks at a time, once they have met you once, meaning 1 in 4 weeks you...

Right ive lost the other thread I started yesterday. This one is my diary. This is probably my 5th attempt at getting back on after my first initial 4stone loss on LL. I did CD lost a stone here and there but never managed to stick to it 100%. This time I will until I go away at easter, I...

Resisting Hi Kitty Well done on resisting the temptation last night - I felt much better when I saw the pink! :D Last night I completely forgot to feed my hubby hahah, did the kids and he went to play football, I was too engrossed reading posts on here to remember to put his Jacket Spud...

Gag (lmao) Nuts No im not into S&M

Just to point out you can't have ALL this you choose a protein option - just in case!! So either fish/chicken/quorn or c/cheese, then your vegs' and milk I feel fab and im on day 5 of it, tried getting back on SS to no avail. Nuts

Hi Eva As taken from the cambridge-diet.co.uk site. Here is the 790 program. Nutsx Step 2 790 kcal This weight loss programme combines nutritionally assured formula food with a healthy meal every day. It is ideal, for instance, for those who are unable to use 'Sole Source' for medical...

Thanks people. I agree Clare - they don't advertise 790 much I think its because SS is the best way for some. I think 790 is the way to go for re-starters who struggle! DEFO! The weightloss is more or less the same and to be honest Im not rabidly hungry to eat the meal in the evening...

Mike I've just spent the last hour on that site ahahah, Evel Kneivel stunt set - my other half is always talking about his one he had as a kid. Im not sure whether to get it for him or my son? My hub will end up playing with it for hours and hours and hours creating stunts down the stairs...

Hi Steve This is me! Except you've realised it alot sooner than I did! I've managed to get back onto 790, If I try to SS by 8pm i've binged and it makes it all worse. Wait until your mind is in the right place and ease yourself in by cutting out carbs then doing 790. Im on day 4 (nearly...

Hi Juliane I can relate to you whole heartedly. Im on day 4, have countless work do's, run a football club, have two part-time jobs which stresses in both and to be honest I had the same thoughts as you today! WHY!? Then another person gripes at me about my weight after I asked my father...

Well Done Katie. Nice one Mike, I agree with you. I've had two people say to me, "you are so channelled, if you want to do something you just do it" where as I think I have no will power whatsoever! So its wierd how others see you and you see yourself isn't it. I wish I could be so...

Bogroll Santas Oh yeah the kids Play Group Snowflakes or Silverfoil stars! Bless em - i've still got ones they made. My mum still has the bog roll santa I made at playschool, with cotton wool moustache still in tact and felt coat hahah, and STILL puts it up on the tree and im 32 now...

Illuminous Ice! Hey them pics gave me memories! You were fantastic on the day and I owe you so much for getting me round, especially when I know you could have ran more of it! Yes the rain did make us laugh - asking people to turn it off as we went round (or to borrow their legs hahah, do you...

Snap HAHAH this made me chuckle. I did exactly the same thing yesterday - minus the chilli flakes - doh!hahaha But it could be a good answer to struggling with water - PLUS chilli makes your motabolism work harder BONUS hahahahah I like to spice up my veg soup otherwise its a bit limp...

Thanks Libbie. I hope its more 4 than 2 :O) thats just my impatience though! I actually didn't want to eat the fish and spinach last night it was like "gees do I have to eat this". So I'll wait until tonight to see what I feel like when it comes to Meal time. I can see myself getting...

Thank you! Many thanks people. Perfectly clear - hmm haven't a clue only seen it in Asdas before. (Sorry!). HELS!! Yes my sentiments exactly, if I got through that bloody rain/wind and pain I can not eat for a few weeks hahahaha. I think thats what did it for me too, I gave myself Half...

Ta Muchly. Thats what I thought, i'll have a peek when I go to the shop next. I don't bother shopping anymore I get it online, may seem lazy but ive managed to save so much money doing that its unreal - plus I don't feel bad for not eating any of it! hahaha Natsxx

Ta muchly Thanks and WELL DONE on your success thus far - fantastic. I've done this before but faffed with the Maintenance and ended up saying to myself "Im in control" when I wasn't! hahah I was happy to see the pink stick but I haven't got in contact with my CDC yet as I had two weeks...

Hi all Well i made it to Day three on 790, not a big deal some might say but i've trying to get to Day 1 for over a year! I recently did the GSR with Icemoose and we chatted about food and 790, he gave me some great advice and I'd like to THANK HIM alot! So here I am on Day 3 of 790 and...

Thanks peeps. I hope my legs are better tomorrow - still it was all worth it. I got to meet Mike and Helen as well as raising dosh for a good cause. So the aches and pains/rain soaked skin was well worth it. Now for the next challenge of getting the 3 stone i've put back on - back off...

Hi Icemoose Hope you got back ok. I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU!:D for getting me round The Great "phissing down with rain" South Run yesterday. :eek: For those of you that were not there and tucked up at home, having a nice cuppa/shake! :cool:, Mike stayed with me around...

Hi all Im nuts, not literally - but then it probably helps eh! I did LL last year but gave up with a stone to go - I got down to 12stone (im 5ft 7) and I thought I'd be fine getting the rest off on my own - OH NO I WASN'T! Im now right back where I started this time last year, except...
