Hi! Whenever I'm hungry it's usually because I haven't had enough water, but keeping busy helps too. I sometimes find that reading or taking a long soak in the bath is just the thing :) Good luck x

I'd love to give this a go. Can anyone tell me where I buy the program from for £50? :)

*giggles* I'm liking the alternative idea's! any idea how many grams of carbs are in speed soup by the way? If it's low enough I could probably treat myself to some :) x

hehe I know that feeling too :D Which reminds me I better go grab another glass :p

lol sounds like me! Although I haven't gone quite as far as putting it in my milkshakes yet! but you know... if I get desperate ... :p I added a bit too much to my soup last night so you might wanna take it easy at first, strong stuff :D

Hi everyone, I started my journey from Butterleigh, a village in Mid Devon. I'm now approaching Catbrain, north of Bristol and 100 miles from home. Bit of a way to go yet :D Love this idea x

*holds hand up* another smoker here, and smoking more on CD than I ever smoked before, but on the bright side... I'm shrinking by the week, so I'll deal with one thing at a time me thinks :D As for being chuffed to be overweight - this had me really giggling... can't wait to be there :D Good...

Your post made me smile, I remember experiencing the light-headedness too plus a definite lack of concentration in my first week. I remember my first week here, someone posted an article for me to read, about a page long and I simply couldn't concentrate long enough to read past the first 2...

People on this site are great, always full of little idea's to support each other along the way :) and I love that people share their pics when they get to or near their goal weight, I find it really helps keeps me motivated. As for me, I started with WW in July this year and lost 12lbs in...

Hi Elle, I have the same trouble and really struggle to get my daily water intake down me but I do find it a little easier when I put ice in it. For some reason I can drink more when it's ice cold and like Katie, I find it helps with hunger :) Also, I read somewhere that...

Thanks Dolly and your soup sounds delicious, especially as it can multitask as a pasta sauce, brilliant :D Talking of spicing things up, I read that adding a lil cayenne pepper to your food can help speed up metabolism. I figure it can't hurt to try out the theory and I'm off to get some now...

You look fabulous! A great inspiration for those of us who aren't there yet :) Thanks for posting the pics and all the best with reaching your goal x

Hi guys, gratz on your losses this week! I had minor surgery this week so spent the last few days on the sofa being lazy... I mean recuperating :p I expected to lose about 2-3lbs at tonight's WI. I can't believe it but it's 6!! :party0019: Gonna have me a nice big chunk o steak with...

Hi, just came across your thread and wanted to wish you all the best for your Christmas Challenge, and hope you don't mind me gatecrashing ;) I'd love to lose a stone before Christmas too. Lost 4lbs this week, now if only I could do that every week!... :D

Brilliant spreadsheet. Thank you very much for sharing, love it! :D

Just popped by to say good luck with your first week ladies. As Dappy said, the results are definitely worth the more difficult days :)

evening ladies, well done to us all :) Myrtle, the mere mention of toast and nibbles has my head running to raid the cupboards haha. This is the first week I've ever really contemplated breaking SS+ ... maybe it's because I have a heavy cold atm, but I feel very hungry this week and badly...

Evening ladies and welcome Myrtlemoo. Just had a week away (kept to 100%) and happy that my WI tonight gave me a 3lb loss for the week. Haven't found it easy this week, I was craving take-away food quite badly but managed to stick to it.. even though I really didn't feel like it :/ How is...

Illa, Brussels is not too far to come and tap your fingers away from that extra food! :D Hope your stress has eased a little and that it's going better for you this week :)

Evening ladies, hope you're all doing well. Gratz to Zelos, amazing first week! well done :) Illa thanks for the tip about kettleworx, I've been looking at it and I reckon that looks right for me, so I'm going to look into getting a good deal on a set, thanks hun :) Skippy sounds like you're...

hmmm citric acid soup... not quite sure that flavour will catch on Illa! *giggles* and Skippy, I stood looking at my soup all down my clothes and all over the kitchen with an inch of it left in the glass and you just couldn't help but laugh when you're stood there wearing your dinner and...

Evening ladies and welcome Zelos, hope you'll let us know how it's going for you :) Well first things first, Skippy don't fall to the temptation ;) Remind yourself of the weeks you've been 100% and how great it felt to be in control... but, if you really need to eat then how about choosing...

hey guys and thanks for the much-needed pep talk, feeling much better for it :) and congrats to us on losing a bichon frise *giggles* can't be bad! Looking forward to next week's WI aready! I decided to try more soups this week, I only had one last week because I honestly couldn't ever see...

hey :) Well I'd say no it's not. Basically, I can't eat anything which is advertised as being hot and spicy, because whenever I've tried anything like that I just can't get past the first 2 or 3 mouthfuls of it, and that just ruins it for me. It doesn't seem hot to me which is why I can add...

Sorry to hear you're not well Illa, take good care and hope you'll feel much better soon! Just stopped by to say it was my WI today and I've lost 7lbs. I'm not exactly disappointed, but some people lose up to 12. My CDC said last week that the meal on SS+ doesn't affect my weightloss but I...

Half-n-half strawberry/vanilla sounds delicious, must try that! Thanks for sharing :D As for soups I've only tried the Oriental Chilli one so far but it was yummy with a dash of pepper added :p

Same as a few other ladies have mentioned, Retardex FTW :D They do a rinse, toothpaste and spray so whichever suits you. You might want to take a look at their website too, they sometimes do free samples :)

Congrats on your loss so far. Keep up the good work :D

evening ladies! Illa sorry to hear you didn't have a great weekend but nice to hear you're back on track now ;) It's totm so I'm not expecting anything miraculous on Wednesday night, but just a little loss would be great motivation indeed :D Hope it went well Skippy :)

Hi! Just came across this thread and it's great inspiration! Personally, I need to lose around half my weight and it's only day 5 so far on SS+. My motivation is that I too no longer want to hide from mirrors and camera's, like I have done for the last 10 years. I feel like I've lost too...

Same here, so far I'm also finding it much easier than I expected it to be but I must admit, my head is in the right place at the moment to do this and do it now, whereas before I've always been yeah... I'll do something next week or soon(ish) ^ ^ Fatal plan at best :D but yes, I'm ready now...

You look amazing! Thanks for giving us all the inspiration to succeed. No worries about zooming round in those go-karts now :D Brilliant!

Hi Marcierose, I'm also on day 5 but of ss+ and have about 10/11 stone to lose. My CDC said that being on ss+ won't slow down my weight loss but I'd like to hear other people's opinions of that. So I hope someone more 'in the know' can tell us :D It'd be nice to know and good luck with your...

hey guys, hope you're all having a great weekend. Day 4 for me and the stick says I'm in K! :) Feeling much better today too, read the 'mindful eating' and actually managed to take it all in without feeling like passing out halfway through lol - very informative thanks Skippy! Illa that's a...

hey hun, just stopped by to see how you're doing. Glad to see the news about your landlord and it's great to see that you've made a good headstart on getting sorted for you and your little one! One step at a time :)

hey guys, congrats for the losses this week! It's really encouraging to see and no matter how small it may seem it's still moving in the right direction and that's great! Day 2 for me was a lil rough again, but I enjoyed all my shakes (strawberry/banana/butterscotch) today. I felt tired...

Thanks for the encouragement guys, I need it ;) Got zilch willpower generally! :p So today was day 1 in the CD house. I made the mistake of having choc mint shake for breakfast which made me feel sick but I think it was the right flavour at the wrong time. I started feeling hungry and...

hehe thanks Skippydog! Well I went to my CDC tonight and I've got everything I need to get me started tomorrow. I don't remember being this nervous for ages :D but the lady also gave me her business card which on the back has her before and after shots (size 24 - 12)! So inspiring :) I've...

Sometimes life just isn't fair and at times people make decisions that make no sense at all to those closest to them. We can think of all kinds of compassionate reasons as to why, but the bottom line is that if he hasn't communicated to you earlier his feelings that led to him wanting to...

Hi, I'm starting on CD in 2 days time and your pics are so inspirational :) Congrats on your amazing achievement!

Thanks for the welcome guys! I'm starting CD on Thursday this week. I'm a little nervous about the lack of food, and I know I'll struggle with my love addiction to Tia Maria :p but hopefully I'll learn to love weightloss more :) Cheryl Cole (Fight for This Love) is on repeat a lot to remind...

Hi, I was touched when I read Sammy's first post and wondered if I can join in with you guys? I've never really taken weightloss seriously until now.. which is probably why I now have around 10 stone to lose :/ I'm going to talk to a CDC on Wednesday. I'm hoping to lose a couple of stones...
