It definitely does get easier. Although somedays I could eat my own arms, this has happened maybe twice in the five weeks I have been doing it. Mostly I am finding it so easy. I enjoy the structure, the timing etc. I have pretty much the same thing every day, porridgeor shake, banana bar and...

Woohoo! You're doing really well! :D

And yes, the spag bol is fine to have everyday:)

To be honest, I'd eat the bars and the spag bol whilst not even on this plan! :p Also, I have a new contender in the 'my favourite bar' stakes... the muesli one! OMG it is gorgeous and surely cannot be allowed ! :eek::8855:

I've got a box of 50 banana bars as they were on special :D I hope I don't go off them! Welcome to our little slim and save place on the WWW!

Yeah true, I low carbed all last year and just stayed the same weight. Didn't think I could face a VLCD again after Lipotrim in 2008. Now I wish I had discovered Slim and Save, Lipotrim seems terrible in comparison to S&S :)

Ooh same as me. Week four day one here :D 13.5lb lost. Unbelievable !

Are you entering your third week or exiting it Lucy? Yay to your 2lb!

Yay me! Thanks! :-D last week I was a bit pissed with 2.5lb , but being the veteran dieter I am, I knew it would be made up and averaged out somewhere along the line. I seem to get the dreaded week three in week two!

I put 10lb on Xmas week last year :-( but I did go a bit wild with the food :-|

Hmmm good thinking! ;-)

Lol! Me and my phone are hardly ever apart <3

I can't find this weeks weigh in thread :o not that I have anything to add to it until tomorrow but I like seeing how everyone else is doing :)

WTF why would they put sugar in vitamins :-s I suppose it's on the outer shell part but still....! I personally don't take any and I vary between 3 and 4 packs. I buy them and then just forget to take them :-[ so I've given up now :-o

Flapjacks! Oh please please please don't let them have nuts in (am allergic) :-/

I drink Coke Zero but only after I've had at least 2l of water that day so far. It is my 'reward' :rolleyes:. Asdas own cherry diet coke is okay too - quite nice, definitely nicer than Diet Coke Cherry but not as nice as Pepsi Max Cherry - now that is nice! :sigh:

:8855: I tend to just guess with mine. I don't have skimmed milk in the house as my lads only have blue milk so I water that down slosh it in a bowl and sling it in the microwave and keep stopping it to stir it up, probably for 1.30 or 2 minutes altogether.

Well done that's grrrreat!

Oooh what a good idea!

I wonder too about this citric acid business. I read somewhere that it should be avoided whilst getting into ketosis and once you're in then it's ok. I wonder about people who are on add a meal week, Atkins, Pig to Twig etc who are eating all sorts of food, you never hear of them avoiding it? :S

Welcome back to the land of the super spag Bol :-D Nothing like a bit of competition! A work pal of mine is on CD and I love the real life interaction with someone doing the same diet :-)

Oh yes and my sticks are dark pink no matter that I drink 3-4l per day and am always weeing!

Me! I never have the death breath after the first day or so, not sure why?! Maybe if I have a lie in I.e more sleep than normal (very rare event!) I might but as a rule I don't.

Oooh I wonder what they could be...? Exciting!

Just had my text to say dispatched! How quick was that! :D

Yeah same here, the banana one is very filling I think!

Great! Thanks for the heads up! Have also ordered 50! :)

I've never heard of it - what is it?

Hellooo :)

I've been on Exante before and really liked the shakes, never tried a bar. The slim and save shakes I've tried are more or less the same as Exante, if anything the Exante ones are more watery. The bars and the famous spaghetti bol are delicious!

Oooh what flavour did you try?

Hee hee :D

Noooo! How can this be?! :-o :-D

Yes I've had a couple, first few mouthfuls and I thought 'yuk!' but then it kind of grew on me. Good for breakfast when it's freezing cold :-)

YES!!! When I had my first one I rushed onto the website to double check the calories as I was sure it wasn't right! :8855:

Exactly this :happy096::banana dancer:

I should think so. I spent the past two years low carbing and staying in ketosis whilst eating all sorts of stuff :-/ Fish is nil/very low carbs and salad is probably okay unless loads of grated carrot, peppers, sweetcorn etc.

Hehe. Everytime I come on here you have a green dot showing as online - although so must I! :D

I have also read that about fat cells, they fill up with water and then when they realise the fats not comic back it whooshes out - that's the highly technical scientific explanation ya know ;-) Plus apparently, the reason that so many dieters fail or regain weight is due those cells...

Never mind that nonsense! Get back on track! ;-)

Oooh it's the 3 club this week! :-) apart from the half a stoner LucySera ;-)

Hello and good luck :)

Is that why you are always showing up as online ;-) I've started having a shower after I've put the kids teas out, my weak point is between 6pm and 8pm :-s

Hmmm don't like strawberry flavoured things as a rule. Thanks for the info!

Nor me, that's what got me in this state in the first place! :D

Has anyone tried the wafers that are on the Slim&Save website? I couldn't find any information on them, they are just offered as little buttons to select when you're ordering, like as an extra or something ? Chocolate or chicken curry (sounds bizarre?!) :8855:

Sounds nice! I had a banana shake last night which I made really thick by accident, t'was like drinking a mousse :D Sounds a bit of a faff to make, not sure I could be bothered :eek:

I wouldn't have thought so, the shakes have a lot more sugar in them than the spag bol so really, the meals may be 'better' than the shakes in that sense :confused: Taken from the website : Banana Shake: Carbohydrates (g) 13.4 of which sugars (g) 12.2 Spag Bol : Carbohydrates...

What a rip off :mad: They should only charge if people WANT their photo updating before the expiry.

Update on the spag bol : Gorgeous :D

Hello :) Onwards and (size) downwards! :D

Try to remember that sick, heavy, bloated feeling, that's what I do to put me off the next time I'm struggling :sigh: If you are 100% this week you should lose that and maybe more - fingers crossed :)

Helloooo :)

Yes I've had cottage pie last three nights for tea. Bland is the best word, put some pepper or curry power in for sure! It's filling though, I had to double check how many cals as thought it was loads more!! I've yet to try the spaghetti Bol, ordered some today due to all the hype it gets on...

Hmmmm maybe we should get a dog :roflmao:

Hello! I'm a new starter too, I started last Thursday (ooh that's gone quick!) and I feel great!! To feel in charge of something (my weight) (and see scales moving) that's made me miserable grumpy and depressed is an amazing feeling! Everytime I've felt like eating I've said to myself 'do I...

Mmm cherry diet coke sounds nice! Asda near me had Cherry Pepsi Max 2 for £2 nit long ago, bestest drink I ever did taste!

That's a good idea, make the kids stuff you hate :D I do that with my three lads, buy stuff with nuts (I'm allergic) or stuff I don't like :p

Well Done! Goodbye to that flab! :D

Yep, what BordersGirls said :cool: If you eat you could end up fatter, depressed, angry and out of control and spend your holiday wishing you had stuck to it, which will spoil your holiday :(

:rotflmao:

Lol thanks for the tip :-) !

Hi ! Thanks for the welcome! You made a good point there, I didn't think of that - about being able to maintain once at target. Ive just got to get to a reasonable target! To be honest, I don't think I could EVER eat carbs (rice bread pasta etc) ever again. I've spent four years now either...

I've just had my first order and have got seven cottage pies! Will be having my first one tonight so hope they're not too bad :-)

Hi! New slim n saver on the block! Unfortunately not new to dieting though. Have done in the past WW, SW, Lipotrim, Atkins and Exante and I'm bloody fed up now! Have never reached a goal as things happened (had a baby etc) but came very close and have then put weight on and have pretty much...
