No problem Beverley - the candle shop's in a lovely craft centre called Lady Heyes, it's quite near Delamere Forest. I can spend many an afternoon browsing round the antique shops! I think I may have to 'borrow' Mike's idea though, and start giving mini-Yankee candles away to my clients when...

Sorry for crashing your thread, but I LOVE Yankee candles and I have one burning most of the time... I live just outside Chester, and the only place round here that stocks them is run by Bob Carolgees (who used to be on telly with Spit the Dog). He works full time in his candle shop now...

Hi Hermione, I enquired to head office about going on to train as a PriSec Counsellor just this week. I received an email back saying that the PriSec course is currently being re-evaluated, and an email will be sent round to all CDC's in April with the new course details... I think it's...

All I can say about what I've copied off aol today (see below) is that Cambridge worked for me - I was taking 10 prescription pills a day for complications brought on by my obesity, since losing weight with Cambridge I've been taken off all medication - so to say what they call 'starvation'...

Please don't feel disheartened - try to remember it'll be worth it in the long run!! xx

Congratulations! What a fantastic achievement! x

Good luck taking them on Geri! It's sad but true that people take more notice of you when you're thinner - which is simply prejudice when it comes down to it... Enjoy feeling strong and relish the challenge that you're facing. Keep us posted as to how you get on! And as for being the one...

Hi Moomin-mama - I know exactly what you mean, it's bizarre!!! I have fond that by losing weight though, I've stepped out of certain people's comfort zone, and now they're weird around me. It's these people that when I see them, consistently offer me cake and biscuits etc etc.. The thing...

I've had to try and break some habits in terms of the way my friends treat me. For years I've always been the one left holding their coats at the edge of the dancefloor whilst they're strutting about in the middle of it! I was always the one who stood outside the fitting rooms to mind the...

Hi there, I just thought I'd ask whether anyone else has experienced anything like this... Since I've lost weight, I've noticed that certain people amongst my colleagues and friends treat me differently. I can't put my finger on how, but I get the feeling that they're more attentive to me...

I love it because before I used it, I had to take pills 3 times a day for Type II Diabetes, I had Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome to boot. I was miserable as sin with incredibly low self esteem - although I knew how to eat healthily I used to take comfort in food because I was so big that there...

Thanks for your lovely comment Dizzy! I find this forum absolutely full of inspirational people and stories so it's a pleasure to think that I could be included in them... xxxxxxxx

I was at a wedding fayre, dreading the fact that I was going to have to go dress shopping again - I'd already been sent packing by one snotty woman in a horrible dress shop as 'we don't have anything that will fit you in here..' on my first attempt.. Quite frankly at this point, I was simply...

That's great - thanks very much for your replies... I spent a small fortune on my scales recently so I'm now going to try various balancing acts on them and see what happens... I'll let you know! I got curious about this as a colleague said to me the other day that her weight had been...

Hiya, I wonder if anyone can please tell me how and why my weight can fluctuate by up to a stone over the course of a day?!! I know you're only supposed to weigh yourself weekly, but I did a whole day on Sole Source yesterday, and gained 9llbs during the night?!! I'm totally baffled as to...

Thank you so much - I lost 4 stone earlier this year on LL before my wedding, then I switched to CD. Unfortunately I've put a stone back on now due to a post honeymoon high(!) but I'm going to train as a CDC on Wed this week - I'm so excited!! I'm currently trying to get back down to my...

What amazing pictures - truly inspirational!!
