Well done!! So nice to break the dreaded plateau !

Hi Andrea ! If like me you don't take any exercise and work primarily at a desk it's sedentary. If like you say you intend to work out 3 times per week def not sedentary ! If you do exercise you must eat more calories to make up for this exercise. I've seen people exercising like mad and not...

Exact same boat as you, are you still going to sw though? Sick of the plateau! Have been cc'ing 2 weeks on 1200 a day and have lost the predicted 2lbs a wk each week! You will do great I am sure. I don't do any exercise whatso ever so no extra cals for me unfort. If you are doing that exercise...

yeah pizza is kinda bad still.... Haha xxx

It's worth a shot? Oh and I didn't mean don't worry from a pain perspective about the op cause trust me I couldn't wait to get it removed like you, but you read so many horror stories online about the after effects of having it removed. Scaremongering!! The first couple of weeks after op are...

By the way the op is no problem at all. Best thing I ever did x

Oh god exact same as me!! Had my GB removed March 2012. After that lost and gained the same couple of pounds or so every week. So frustrating. Even when I was on a proper run of being 100% still no better results. I think the main issue is, you've lost an organ from your digestive system and...

I've done a bit of that too over the last 2 weeks. The beauty of counting cals not syns! I've even had a Nandos :) xx

Hmm. Well I tend to have fruit for breakfast and a coffee. Then maybe some hot chicken for lunch from morrisons. (No skin) or a jacket potato. Then a sw style syn free recipe in the evening. Just less of it really. If cals left I'll have a muller light and usually more fruit. This is during the...

Thank you lady Jo!!! Xx

Such a great support thank you both!!

so agree with everything you say. I've been bloated for 3 years!! Haha. My portions are ridiculous. I've been totally stuck in a rut and am desperate to lose my last stone. Done cc for 2 wks and lost 2lbs each week. Thrilled!!!

Thanks for the reply. Sw is great I'd never knock it. But I've done it so long my body needs a jolt. My portion sizes are clearly out of control. Just cause something is called a free food shouldn't really mean its unlimited amounts!! Especially when it's my last chunk of weight. You've done so...

haha. No I shan't be mentioning it at group either! I'd get shot! I just feel its worth a shot? So disheartening losing and gaining that same pound every week for months when sticking to plan. I've worked out it's 1200 for me per day to lose 2lbs a week and both weeks I've done it I've lost...

Hi all!! Been a sw devotee for 3 years and still going to group but have plateau'd massively so having a go at this!! Will this work for me do you think? Feel like I'm eating too much free food and my body is used to it on sw. Any thoughts opinions and advice would be gratefully received !! Xx...

Had THE worst week last week buuuut lost 2 and a half tonight so now at 11 stone 8.5!!!!! So chuffed x

I had a tablespoon of full fat mayo (5) and a caramel freddo (5) I love them!

Good luck!!

Haha I like that xx

We def all have times like this. But what would be best is not letting one treat day lead to another as 'oh well I've blown it I might aswell' (we've all done this ! ) but except for those specific days stick to plan 100% and I'll bet you still have losses. What I would do also is maybe stick to...

Ooh it so depends from person to person!! As it depends on your shape aswell. Think I was at the 2 stone mark before I moved down a full and proper dress size (without squeezing myself in) stay positive and stick with it you're doing so well!

We had the chicken jalfezi from the curry book tonight.... Bloody lovely!

Seem to be doing ok today...no nagging thoughts of takeaway so def an improvement!! Here's to the 10's ladies!! xx

no don't have a weekend off! Stick with it. You're doing brilliantly xx

Thanks! I see it as a positive now too on reflection... Could've killed someone on Saturday night though when I couldn't get junk food outta my head!! BUT... I maintained this week. Would've been a gain with a mcd's hey?! Thanks for your encouraging words. Really want a loss on Tuesday when I...

Hate it when that happens!! Hopefully its just a little water retention?

No thinking required... How lovely that would be! It's all I think about at the moment. That's a good thing for the most part, but when you fancy a takeaway my god its tough!! Anyway, onwards and upwards. Least I didn't go to the drive through !! Xx

another good one is 16g Milky Way bars!! Just 3 and a half syns xx

Hi everyone! This 11 into 10's is gonna be a tough challenge I can tell!! Found it really hard this weekend. Haven't been able to stop thinking about utter junk like mcd's etc... Last night just wanted to get in my car and go to the drive through... :( to stop myself I made a sausage and bacon...

yes ! Followed to a T. Have major OCD so I like weighing out all my herbs and spices etc.....!! Haha.

You just need to leave him to it and if he wants your help I'm sure he will ask. Feel for you really do because you're coming from a good loving place xx but he's going to just shut off to everything you say if you continue on in this way. You're already influencing and taking care of him by...

I've just bought the curry book from group... Made the classic chicken curry n Bombay potatoes for tea. Very very nice!! New mags out too xx

i buy them in asda in a pack. They are the small ones (which I think are the normal size anyway) great to fix a sweet tooth craving!!! Xx

eurgh its the pits! Would far rather be a serial weigher!! Xx

I hate myself for getting on those scales everyday!! But when I was fatter I NEVER weighed myself. Don't want to go back to that place!!!

I love a milky bar. Just 3 and a half syns. Apples really seem to fill me up too. I'm also before automatically grabbing for food each time... Upping my water intake and drinking peppermint tea... Hope that helps love! Xx

Hey we've all done it! It happens so easily.... Start a fresh. Never too late :)

We certainly are xxx target members to be :) xx

welcome to the 11 zone!! Haha xx

Happens to the best of us love :( I always turn to food in times of stress. But so good that you're focused and ready to do it this time. I really want to be a target member!!! We will get there!!

8 !!!!!!!! Haha xx

Think so I saw it on the sw website aswell as my c texting me to tell meX

He said with a nervous smile as I unwrapped them... You can syn them out!! Haha oh great! I've had one this entire time!! Such a lot of syns on one lickle wabbit!!! X

My husband bought me a BOX of malteaster bunnies for my birthday in feb.... That's right a whole bloody box from the cash and carry. What was he thinking?! Hahahaha x

Thanks xx have a feeling I'm going to need it this week ;)

haha...it would not surprise me if that's what mine were basically?! I got them from one of those shops only muscle men go in on the high street.... All natural ingredients they said... Hmmmmmmmm!! I was a hot mess!!! Only lost half a stone all in all just from water retention I think then it...

Buy one pack get another pack free on berry bake well hifi bars in group this week!! YUM!

hey well done!! I feel very heavy and bloated tonight and I weigh in tomorrow... Wish me luck!

Yeah I always notice with my skin. The gallbladder attacks were very scary!! So painful. Was glad to have the thing removed. .... One diet I did forget... Slimming pills.... Never ever again. I didn't sleep, I was giddy, palpitations etc...! Not recommended ;)

Its not fun!! It's basically a mixture that I used to blend in with yoghurt twice a day (as a meal no less) and a heap of huge vitamins .... So lots of deprivation. Needless to say I was fairly miserable when I did it years ago and the weight just came back on as soon as you started eating 3...

I've done herbalife, Cambridge,calorie counting and slimming world.... I lost a stone on sw 3 years ago on the run up to my wedding and ALWAYS kept it off. I then lost a stone and a half on Cambridge but ended up poorly due to the lack of food with gallstones. Had my gallbladder removed in the...

Very true different strokes for different folks! Vlcd just didn't work for me in the long run as I ended up very poorly with gallstones after I'd lost my weight, so had to stop doctors orders. I do however know a lady that lost 3 stone on a vlcd and has kept it off since. Different things just...

A week can make all the difference to make you feel good if you stick to plan 100% best of luck!

As someone who's done both sw and Cambridge I have to say a vlcd does nothing to teach you the error of your ways as you're essentially starving yourself during the diet ( which cant go on forever!) At least with slimming world I have learnt to cook in a healthier way without all the fat oil...

Good for you!! Xx

I've never tried it?! What is it? I know they sell it at group x

So glad I bought it. Can't get over how cheap the books are too. I'm gonna try the red onion gravy tomorrow!

I have ibs too. So many things irritate it. I've found since following a slimming world diet it seems to have calmed down. Always best making everything fresh yourself then you know exactly what has gone in ! X

how come? its a great buy. The arrabiata we tried tonight was so tasty and syn free :)

its a great one ! I also bought the book of sauces last week. Great book.

We are doing nothing! Heaven. I have planned my weekends meals though. Had salmon and pasta with homemade arrabiata sauce tonight ( was yummy) tomorrow I'm making a chicken chasseur then Sunday skinny lizzies mash and red onion gravy! All on plan :)

Brilliant!! I'm such a slow loser. But it's getting there eventually. Well done!! X

5 stone what a woman!! Well done you. Be proud x

My husband said tonight that there wasn't as much of me to hug anymore!! Now when they notice something we must've been doing it right!!

Then I think you will like this ;) xx

JD I need Alice in my life!! Haha. What a cutie. Black cats are my favourite. So helpful of her sharing your yoghurt!! My cat prefers naughty creamy yoghurts from M&S that I can't eat anymore!!! Xx

Exact same as me! X

haha she's my angel! I'm a crazy cat lady ;) you're right about Cambridge .... Slimming world feels a breeze in comparison! Love planning new recipes to try every week. I lost a stone and a half on cd really quick but got ill with gallstones and had to have my gallbladder removed! That is one...

Bloody good for you!! X

Haha fab!! Know what you mean. Such a great support system with zero judgment! I did Cambridge too once.... Rough time that was! Still fascinated that weight can be lost while you eat food !! X

Wow you've done great! I lose so slowly. Just half off tonight at weigh in... Still in the 11's at least ! Lets get down to the 10's!!

I cannot abide people like that...... I would give your consultant a heads up its not fair on those they are making fun of. THEN, separate yourself totally. Why are some people like this?! Infuriating!

The new Asia book is fantastic.... Tried 4 different recipes already and they were quick easy and most importantly yummy! Only a fiver that book too.

Agree! Food diary an absolute must.

Hi Hannah only just saw this ! Good stuff we will get down to the 10's together!! So determined to get to target this time..... According to the graph on the sw website I should be at target for August....lets see!! Xx

Wow. What a great loss!! I lose so slowly. Pound a week sometimes half. Even though I stick to it 100%. But as long as it comes off hey?! Do you do a food plan for the week? I tend to try 2 different recipes each week to keep it interesting.

I remember when I really started to notice it was when when my collarbone magically reappeared!! Always a good idea to measure yourself aswell as sometimes you could lose more inches than pounds! Sounds like you've got off to a good start by dropping a couple of dress sizes. Well done!

Just hit 11.13 this week... Can not wait to get into the 10's. !! Anyone who wants to buddy up that's around the same point as me would be wonderful. So determined this time to finally get to target and feel good!

Totally agree!! Brave those scales and start from scratch. Keep your meal plans interesting too. Stops a lot of potential slip ups for me. The new Asia book is fab x

You need to just start now from scratch. Go back to basics like a brand new member. This happens to the best of us so don't be too hard on yourself. Maybe if you can manage it keep your syns at a max of 10 for the next week just to help make up for it a little. What has happened can't be undone...

My idea of a binge after weigh in is just staying within my syns using the full 15 instead of the 5-10 I stick to every other day. This way you feel you are having a treat but its controlled. Day of weigh in I eat no carbs until afterwards as carbs and I don't get along!!

I had sticky 5 spice gammon.... So so tasty. On the sw website if anyone's interested xx

i say this EVERYTIME but mikado! 1/2 syn per stick. Sooooo nice and you can stack a few up n really feel like you're having a treat! Xx

I think I'm going to have stayed the same when I get weighed tomorrow! Just have a feeling. I'm staying off the scales though cuz they might be wrong!

you have done amazingly ! Just had a look at your blog. Well done you xxx

Go easy on yourself this can be hard at time of the month more than anything! Good luck!

i so agree with that!!

When I feel like that I have a bacon and sausage sandwich ...! Obv healthy b whole meal bread bacon fat cut off and skinny lizzie sausages which are 1 syn each. Feels so naughty though that it keeps me happy!! Giving up all of those things seems too hard! What about some Special K cracker...

What happened to the old... If you haven't got anything nice to say don't say anything at all!!?? Xx

Hi all!! Now then. I went to costa today with my husband and had a cup of tea with skimmed milk and wait for it.... No cake! Think I'm getting the hang of this willpower thing!! HONK HONK! Xx

I wouldn't mind but when you finally do well and start losing weight you get the ' ooh careful you don't go too far it. Can get obsessive you've lost enough now' haha. This usually comes from twig like size 8-10 girls. And I just think... You prefer me when I'm fat then eh?! DON'T LISTEN TO...

Thanks very much x

Even when I went off the deep end and had a McDonald's a couple of weeks ago I synned it out on the website and had 2 days with no syns but really filling free food to make up for it. Otherwise you're always playing catch up. Plus I know if I went really crazy it's opening up a can of worms and...

Can anyone help with this so I can fill my food diary in accurately.?

Hi all! Sorry to ask I don't usually but can't find this on the slimming word website or anything.... Syns in a white bread roll at the harvester?? i was really good tonight. Just had grilled steak a jacket potato (no butter it killed me!) and salad. While my husband scoffed his way through 3...

Hey a loss is a loss Hun you're doing well! Better slow and steady anyway. I'm like that a pound one week pound and a half the next. Don't b disheartened just stick with it ! Xx

Tough decision to make.... I did ss for 8 weeks and lost a stone and a half. Shortly afterwards I developed gallstones and had to have my gallbladder removed ( could be due to the vlcd it is in the listed side effects. ) also my hair thinned a lot. I piled the weight back on not long after and...

I lost 1 and a half stone on cd and put it all back on again now I'm doing slimming world and lost half a stone in 4 weeks by making some changes with the way I cook etc. slowly slowly seems to be The best way for me I keep it off that way.

Whatever you choose to do good luck with it Hun! Different strokes for different folks, you have to do what suits you best. X

The braising steak meal with onions and carrots from m and s is a syn free meal. X

Stewing steak is fab for weekend when you have a bit more cooking time. The lean stuff from asda. Look up the beef stew recipe on the sw website. Lovely meal. Also maybe some nice pork steaks? Diced turkey for a change from chicken in a stir fry etc...the nicest thing I've tried lately was the...

I would have a word with her. But put it in a way that she's 'helping' you. Otherwise you may scream in her face one day!! X

Aww Hun it's so so tough. Bad food is a tough addiction to curb but envision yourself how you want to be... It's so worth breaking through that barrier. I've done Cambridge in the past and it left me Ill and depleted. The beauty of sw is that you EAT. Eat and eat the free stuff and you will...

I work with a group of feeders!! So annoying! Haha x

I've just eaten the nicest SYN FREE tomato soup. Absolutely delicious !! Nicer than some I had at a restaurant the other week. :)

Hey Hun. My lifesavers are mikado sticks 1/2 syn per stick. And the new Special K cracker crisps. 5syns for 21 crisps!! X

ooh know how that feels. I did sw lost a stone (always kept it off) then went on Cambridge and lost a stone and a half (back on) then I was very ill and had to have an op....so NOW on sw and really focused. Cambridge so so hard and I'm not sure the healthiest way of going about wieght loss. So...

Thanks! I'm really focused which is a good start....! Xx

Haha be strong! Let them drive you to fruit or maybe a muller light!! Hahaa x x

Haha... You make me chuckle..! Some days are like that hey but at least it's free food? so far today I've had a bacon and sausage (skinny lizzie's are a god send! ) sandwich some baked beans and a banana! Only had 3 and a half syns so I can have a couple of my Terry's orange segments tonight...

Btw your weight loss is incredible and inspiring! X

Haha maybe the partridge could be your midnight snack ;) xx

sounds good to me Hun! Just eaten my beef stew it was delicious. I've only had 5 syns today so its maybe treat time now ;) xx

Well you're doing brilliantly then! I can't swim so wish I could. And yeah treadmill etc so dull. I'm just following the diet to the letter. Obsessing over new recipes etc... Keeping it fresh otherwise I will get bored and stray!! Hahah. X

ooh what chocolate will you have?! I find weekends the hardest too, when at work during the week I'm rushing around busy so not as much time to think about it. That's why I've done a stew today takes 2 and a half hours in the oven so I can smell it for ages it keeps me going! I bought some...

I'm too lazy to exercise! X

Hope everyone else had a good week too? Any new food discoveries we should know about?! Xx

hiyah! It's actually going great! Have done loads of new recipes to keep me interested... Have a syn free beef stew in the oven at the moment simmering away, and loads of fruit for afters ;) how about you? This week been ok?? Xx

Well done!! Yes the dreaded football....I'm upstairs watching a film and planning a sw friendly shopping list.....! I lost 2 pounds last night at weigh in, good luck with yours xx

Hi missy1978 you've lost an incredible amount of weight ! And what a motivation to get you there. Brilliant x

Wow you look like a different person...... You should be so proud of yourself x

A good new one aswell is the Special K crisp crackers. 5 syns for 21 crisps .... Nice!!

ahh thanks, first full week back after a year or 2 so I'm quite pleased. Followed it to the letter! I'm not a fan of quark either so maybe just use a couple of spoonfuls at the end to thicken it up? It's really good! Tasty!!

Hi all! I'm a sw restarter, and went to my weigh in tonight after my first full week back. Lost 2 pounds which I was pleased with but I know some people would think that a little low for the first week... I think slowly slowly but that kinda loss every week won't be bad? What does everyone think?

I've just tried the new Special K cracker crisps.... Really nice and just 5 syns for 21 crisps ! On offer in asda 99p. Nice little snack xx

Lost 2 pounds tonight! X

Thank you yes I will do in future. Didn't have any syns that day just in case they were high.... They are low in fat on the morrisons website so hopefully not too much damage,! Thanks for replying x

You could even just use a few up by adding mayo to tuna? Or have your healthy b as bread some days and use spread on sandwiches or toast? That's what I'm doing. Good that your choccy cravings have gone though ;)

Wow 2 stone loss you're doing great!! :)

I do love a grazey day.... Does make you feel rubbish afterwards though :(

Hi all....! My fave shop didn't have any jacket potatoes left today (my go-to lunch!) so went to morrisons and at the hot chicken counter had a chicken tikka kebab... Has anyone any idea how many syns? Can't even calculate myself cause morrisons don't declare the protein etc... Cannot find...

Fab thanks always welcome new ideas!!!! Chicken stroganoff recipe.... 2 chick breasts 1 onion 1 clove garlic crushed 2 tsp wholegrain mustard (2 syns so I use mustard powder which is FREE) 1 stock pot 1/2 tub quark Water Fry light Salt and pepper Dice onion and chicken and fry in...

Yes you too!!

thanks Hun!

Haha! Fab SLW! I will post recipe now. Lets keep each other motivated on here everyone!! It helps loads xxx

Hi all! I'm a second time joiner! Just joined up again Tuesday last week. Feel a lot more positive this time round as you know The pitfalls when you have done it before..... The main thing I'm trying to change this time is that mindset of ' ooh what 15 syns can I have today' hahaha. Trying to...

Good for you! I have lost a stone and a half previously, have had to do my weight loss in 2 parts as I had my gallbladder removed in march!! We will get there. At least we can eat plenty of food on this....good luck at your first weigh in!!

I did Cambridge so was obsessed with weighing myself everyday, but with sw it can be slowly slowly so weighing yourself too much can be discouraging.... AVOID LIKE CHOCOLATE! Haha x

Hey that's great!! I haven't gone to bed hungry yet.... Fab diet. How much are you looking to lose? I'm aiming for 2 stone 9 pounds!

Hi all not been on here in a long time was a bit poorly after completing the Cambridge diet! Not sure if connected but thought it best to go down a different route anyway. First week back at slimming world this week. First Weigh in will be Tuesday and I have to say after doing Cambridge this is...

Posting this cuz I really didn't think it would be possible for me to achieve this at the start. Since my mum died several years ago my weight absolutely ballooned, you see i'm a bit of a stress eater which is a problem :( I'm only 5'4 so don't carry extra weight well at all. There was and...

Did you get started??xx

Ha!! It's such an odd thing. Really spurs me on though.. God knows what will show up next eh??!!

Hi Majella Sory missed your comment!! Ahh i was so pleased. Knee high boots eh? I haven't been able to wear those forever. Keep looking at those glossies and look around skinny minnie shops like Bank and think I WILL BUY SOMETHING FROM HERE SOON!!! xx

Hi all, On day 4 week 5 and my collarbone seems to have made an appearance after many years in hiding!!!!!!!! It's so odd where the weight drops off sometimes. I wasn't even aware I had a chubby neck! I am so glad that my tummy is going down. I've lost a few inches off my waist so it's...

Riotgrrrl, It is just around the corner for you thats the beauty of cd. The full 4 weeks that i've done have gone really fast to be honest i thought time would drag by. I cant wait to feel good when i go out for a change. Thing is aswell the clothes you buy when u feel fat are so so frumpy i...

Yes I agree prob one of the higher cal plans would be good for you to start with then you can work your way downwards. I know of people who have done it this way and you will still lose the weight... I think this will be fine x x

How has day one gone hun? x

Good luck on your first day hun!!! :)

Ok ladies so, today i bought a dress from Lipsy of all places in a size 14.....before Cambridge this would NOT of happened I can assure you. Firstly I do not do dresses (except when i got married) secondly Lipsy are ridiculously small sizes. I am only on day 3 week 5 of this diet.... Didn't...

Ick it's the worst isn't it? That's just another thing that keeps me going. Also people at work lend each other clothes silly stuff like that that you can't join in with. This will all change hun!!! X

Oh my god shorts on hols are the pits!!! I will look forward to not needing lanacane if I wear a dress or skirt! And people always wonder why I only wear trousers. Any bloody wonder. So uncomfortable when you have too much thigh like me. I'm also looking forward to not feeling like the fattest...

You will both do it!!!! It's exciting. I love hearing about others weight losses so keep me posted x x

Eww I have so many of those photo's......It's a real lightbulb moment, dreadful. But I'm grateful that something in my head just snapped and I started on my journey. Feel so good knowing that i'm doing something about it and that this Christmas I won't look like the stuffed bloody turkey!!!! Fab...

Thanks so much... this forum is fab. Glad I joined x

You are more than welcome. Losing weight is tough and you just need someone to tell you you can do it every now and then that's all... Hope it goes well for you, do keep in touch and if you have any questions/ doubts please contact me. If you knew me honestly you wouldn't believe that i've stuck...

Hello fellow newbie!! Your last one and a half stone fabulous!! That is exactly what I have left to lose... It is amazing what just a few weeks can do on this diet so I'm sure you will be there in 4-6 weeks. How did you find maintaining it last time you had done cd?? x

It's not stupid it's reality hun!!! My husband is the same.. Whilst doing slimming world and while i've been on cambridge he lost 3 stone!! It's so easy when you're a couple and you go eat out you get takeaways, popcorn and doritos with a movie...the list is bloody endless!!! It all centres...

Goodness you stopped after a rolo?? Well done you!!! After 2 weeks ss my other half ordered us a chinese takeaway and i could only manage half of it my stomach was so so full afterwards. I think this was because i missed chewing!! I feel like there are only so many times you can say no to...

Wow you look fantastic!!! Well done you!

Yeah just see how you feel as you go along. I think that's the best way. You sound like you really want it so i'm sure it will happen. Keep in touch and let me know how you get on x

Hahah oh goodness im such a dumb blonde sometimes!!! My misunderstanding. I lost a stone on slimming world (longest year of my life!!) Then lost 14 pounds on Cambridge in 4 weeks!!! Don't actually believe it myself, entering week 5 now. I am absolutely determined that once i have lost it i am...

Hi Chelsea, Is there no way you can start straightaway? I literally started the next morning after my first meeting and this was on a friday and i was missing out on loads at weekend!! I just think its no time like the present... I have a busy job too. I found that the best way for me to feel...

Oh my god you lost 7 stone already though so you must have some willpower!!! I felt like i would never ever lose any weight and felt destined i would feel massive forever!!! It just doesn't have to be like this. I have found the Cambridge a challenge yes, but an absolute godsend. Its not point...

Hahah I have the worst ocd ever so sounds normal enough to me!! Yes I'm sure you could count this as your day 1. Just loooooads of water. In fact I'm quite ocd about my water intake now so you should be fine with this!!! x

Hey don't be down on yourself you can do it!! Your weight today is what it is but just think what it will be after week 1 and week 2 etc etc so exciting...be positive it will work for you x x

Wow it'll be your first day on CD?? You will do great I'm sure. I'm a TOTAL foodie and if I can do it i'm absolutely certain anyone can. If you're anything like me you will be tired for the first couple of days but just go with the flow and drink loads of water. Best of luck!! Let me know how...

You have to be able to set yourself a treat now and then...it gives you extra motivation i find!!! After 2 weeks on ss I ordered a chinese takeaway and only ate a fraction of it. Was so so full afterwards!! Husband was thrilled as he got to finish it off for me !!!

Hi All, New to this so do excuse if this reads a bit rubbish!! Started CD 4 Weeks ago and have lost a stone in weight. So thrilled that I have managed to do this. I started my weight loss journey last May (2010) on slimming world. After a looooong year of counting syns gaining a pound losing a...
