Day 1 What can I say? I did it. It wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, although my tummy felt a bit swishy from the water!

Well, shake 1, banana (lovely but needs to be colder - ice cubes next time) down. As I finished it my little boy Owen (3yo) said "look mummy, you've done it! You've got a little bottom now!" lol, if only darling.

Just had an email from Exante's delivery company, due between 11.28 and 12.28 (how very precise) so today is officially day 1. QQ - water allowance, is tea/coffee included in that or not? x

Ok, so I was thinking of putting in place some rewards for myself as I lose weight. 1st Stone - a pedicure 2nd Stone - a luxury facial 3rd Stone - a bouquet of flowers 4th Stone - lovely winter coat/mac 5th Stone - new perfume That's all I've come up with so far. On the flip side I've decided...

Good luck! Christmas is a great target, will definitely be looking good! x

Thanks both, I'm really impatient!! Plus, I have almost 10st to lose so there is no way for me I can move straight from foundation to RTM, will be on it longer anyway. Just hope you don't all think I'm a fraud posting on here for a month while not on LL!

I've decided to start this thing early so have ordered a month's supply of Exante. I'm terrified of the peeing at school thing so needed to get started. I'm still very aware that I need the counselling and support of LL so I will be going to my class when it starts on 14th Sept. but I know I...

Thank you for all of your kind words all of you, you have been really supportive. I guess I'm a bit disappointed only because I feel so motivated, but what's a month between friends?

The LLC was lovely, despite not being able to start for a month she still gave me an hour of her time and lots of suggestions. Really, really looking forward to starting. I'm taking my 3 year old to the woods today, we're going on a Gruffalo hunt! Lol. One of the reasons I'm doing this is so I...

Well I'm back, and she's lovely, and I'm ready and raring to go...but I can't start until 14th September, which I'm absolutely gutted about. *sigh* My LLC gave me some tips on how to eat my way in the right direction to ketosis, hope to lose some weight and get used to water by the bucketful...

Right, off to meet my LLC. Off to meet the lady that will help me change my life! Exciting!

Hi LadyT Have just read all of this in one sitting and wow! What an inspiration. The thought of non wide fit boots...bliss! Glad you had a lovely holiday. H x

Meant to write loss obv. Weightless wouldn't be good!

Thank you Louise, what a lovely thing to say. I look forward to emulating your weightless!

Have just read your thread juju, you sound like you're doing fantastically well! I'm a primary school teacher too, I hope to start this week. I need to get the constant peeing out of the way before I get back to school! Looking forward to hearing more positive tales of fabulousness from you...

You sound like you're doing fabulously well, baking in Week 1! Here's hoping you can go to your first WI. But if not, you'll be great anyway. Everything crossed.

Really well done Maddie, that's fab! I have a similar amount of weight to lose as you and hope to start next week so will be watching you with interest.

Looking forward to meeting with my LLC today and hopefully being given a start date. I'm in a bit of a pickle that I don't actually want to tell my H that I'm starting this yet. He loves me to the core "just as you are" but I'm beginning to think me being this size and weight is convenient to...

Thank you. I hope all is going well with you too. Onwards and downwards!

Reasons to succeed: 1: I have a gorgeous 3yo son that I want to do more with, my size is stopping me at the minute. 2: I would like to add to our family one day and couldn't safely this size. 3: My weight if affecting my health. 4: I'm fed up of being "the fat one". 5: A family wedding...

Thank you SB, I have to say that already you have been an inspiration to me. Is there anything I can be doing to help myself before I start the first week? I suppose the temptation is to binge on everything in sight - but that helps no one! Hayley x

I've decided to start an online diary to keep a track of everything. Reading some others on here I have become excited, enthused, nervous and everything in the spectrum between. I meet with my LLC tomorrow and have already booked an appointment with my doctor for Tuesday to sign my forms, so...

Really excited, thank you. Also glad I can start ASAP as I'm a teacher and need to get over the constant loo breaks bit before school starts again!

Thank you for the welcome SB! As for the name, I think part of the reason I am the size I am today is because of it. My dad gave me it as a nickname as a baby (as his very favourite thing) and food and the need to feel loved, accepted and wanted is something that I know is a problem for me...

Hi all I have spent the last 2 weeks while I have been on holiday reading your stories and successes. I contacted my local LLC and am going to see her tomorrow. I am so excited at the prospect of starting and want to thank you all for that. Thank you. I have approximately 10st to lose so...
