    That's good! Its shocking really that people are allowed to advise / dictate in her case the wrong information that is just not sustainable for some people

    That's a great point I didn't even think about the bmi ( and I havnt jst been reading my book) ... Yes I think u can! Jst drop her an email once you've sorted a new 1 telling her you'll no longer be needing her services as "her" plan is not for u!
  117. B

    Confused

    Sounds like she's in it for the money! She will lose out in the long run! Mine let's me swap and chage thing and its all the same cost! Hopefully you will find a nicer one and stick to it and lose the weight u want to! X

    Confused

    Also just to add my CDC said that apart form the first 2 weeks there isn't much difference between the losses on average a month she said it might not be consistant on ss+ but it evens out e.g lose 2lbs 1 week then 6 the next where as on just ss its a little more even.. X

    No there not big 50g bar about the size of a dairy milk or something. My CDC said the peanut and cranberry crunch are the best because they have the least carbs in ... Its worth getting a few to c which ones u like for those bad days lolx

    I don't know if its just me but the bars take me a while to eat! Drink water with them after each mouthfull! .. Normally a choc bar would be gone in a few bites but these take a while lol!

    God I can't imagin how your sticking to it using the soups! I tried 2 and had to go and swap them back with my CDC because they were so vile!! Lol! That's good to know tho that they average out the same! I do remember being told that but being the same as u I wanted to be as strict as possible!
  173. B

    how long did every 1 stay on ss before moving up to ss+??

  174. B

    how long did every 1 stay on ss before moving up to ss+??

    nearly the end of day 3! .. how to keep busy??

    Omg yes completely agree! On saturday me and my boyfirend had no idea what to do! Usally we get up and out the house for about 1 and go for food! Then potter around until 5 and we go and get food for dinner or start planning where were going to eat out! My life revolved around meal times! X
