Yes u still lose on the steps. Is your goal ear bmi 25? U ha. To one off SS once u grt to 25 anyways so thays an ideal tine to start stepling up. But my losses wer the same on 810 as SS... Has been lower on 1000 but im now only a few lbs from target so expect it to be slower from here on in...

Whats for dinner then?

Yeaaah do that :) Woohoo a new eater. I was well worried about eating and being out of keto but ive found no change really and rarely eat te full ampunt on 810... Its usually shake brekkie, fruit snacking, shake around 2pm, then evening meal and a yog...so i tend to miss out lunch salad and...

Duno... Find the ingredients?? If its under (5% i think??) the limit... And has no naughties in them...? Not sure if they class as yogs or puddings tho withlut ingredients lists! X

First pair of size 10 skinnies. Helllllls yeaaaaah baby!

Shes not at bmi 25 yet. The reason u move up to 810 Then is as u lose better. Ur body needs more onceu r in that bmi bracket so u losr more efficiently on 810 from bmi 25. Dont b frustrated! :) x

I fprgot we had the exact same start weight chick :)

Oooh thats not a bad idea. :) might have that!! Or a salad and put some boiled potatoes in the oven to crisp up with frylight..

Ooooh the race is back on eh? Youve overtaken!!! My scales seem to be stuck in the same place... :/ mind u i dot expect ill lose much more on 1000. X

Todat was mango throughout the day, missed lunch as was out. Frittata for dinner (cluldnt eat all the potato :/) and a yog for pud. :D Abbbbsolutly stuffed! X

Great idea on the belly piercing. I never had it done coz i was always too fat lol. If im ever happy with it i might get it done. :) Booo to no weigh in - ull get there soon. Ur so close to the 9s!! Just keep on plan (ss or ss+) and you'll be fine hun. Nooooooo kebabs!!! Maybe try not to weigh...

Haha oh well ay. Movvvving on. Will keep eyes peeled more in future!! Mmmm toad in the hole! Cant believe we can have that!? Need to get some sausages!! Whats ur plan today?

Aww hun. Think ur still paying for ur "break"? Hope theu budge soon for u! Have u noticed a clothes size change? I started this pushong into a 16 and now the smallest jeans i own (12s) wont stay up.., i Struggling to comprehend that i could really be a 10?!?

Omgggggg i read tho book wrong. Tje recipe said 250g of mince and 300g if on 1000kcals... Totally read it as EACH! :/ so i just ate 250g of mince instead of 150g! Pillock!!!! Defo missing put my yog and last bit of fruit!!!!!

Omg that portion was huuuuuge. Im so stuffed :/ blurghhhhhh. Defo leaving fruit and yog till later. Maaaan. Do u think itatters ifwe eat less than the amount??

Haha yessss! Love a bargain! :) I feel like ive eaten so much today. Cooked bolognaise for t but no brown pasta so will hav with rice... Then still got yog and the last 50kcal fruit too.... Thats a lot of fruit in a day! :/ ill have an egg and toast tomorrow me thinks! Havnt got any light...

Oooh errrr cooking up a spag bol for dindins... The smell of proper food is mouth watering haha!! Yummmmmmms cant wait! Portions huge tho :/ how on earth am i gonna eat all that?!

Woohoo so ive got a small hovis nimble (didnt know of it mattered whoch, i could see one that said granary tho), and some muller lights (6packs fpr £1.50 in asda), and some fruit :) Couldnt find the frylight salad dressings tho!

I will be indeed (havnt eaten anything yet). I'll have my shake then go into town to get fruit. Is it any low fat yog or only plain? And a "small slice of granary bread" is thay one of those smaller loafs? X

Woooooooo!! Up to step 3 for me then!

9stone 13lbs and a quater!!!! Hahaha! Im in the 9s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol. Waiting for this weigh in is slow torture!!! I kno my can b a few lbs diff to CDCs tho so worrrrried! Mine r hovering just below 10.....

N'awwee thank u!!! My scales said 9.12 this morning... But ive obv drunk since then etc... FC!!!

Oooh errrt nervpus for weigh in the afternoon. Everything crossed to be in the 9s!!!

Dry herbs and spices r ok. (in moderation of corse). And no-no to gum coz it kicks off ur body into feeling hungry. So ahain... Maybe once in a while but id try not too, especially in SS X

Ta hun. Maaaaaaaan i hope so!!!!!!

Yeah evenings are my tough time too! :/ Good luck chick. Ive got WI tomorrow afternoon now.. fC it being afternoon doesnt mean ots gonna b high!! X

Im carb craving. Its been 2months since i last had any :/ Chickens better than junk hun and wont really affect ur losses at all! X

Just over 2 months now. Been on 810 for the last.. Nearly 2 weeks?! Befor that it was SS. Im no a tea/coffee dribker either so hav no use for milk!! Yeah - dressings wise im looking forward to trying te sprays. I kno u can make ur own but most seem to involve mustard which i hate lol! So u...

Yes indeed. Well done u! I think ive done 2pints so far tpday... Maybe more. I forgot toeasure it out. I'll just aim for another few just incase! Sat teaching y little girl How do to dairlea dunkers... Dying to eat a breadstick :/ *must be stronnnnng*

Well, well done u! Yes i hav that book already! :) breakfast and dinner im ok with. Its daytime snacking if im not in keto! :/ how much fruit a day do u have?! This weighing fruit/veg is odd lol. Also i hav yog not milk so i guess i can snack on that too :) Might also get some of the...

Woohoo someone is! I'll prob b starting wednesday i think! Currently on 810. Hpw are u doing on it not being in ketosis? Scared of comjng out and being hungry! Bit so lookong forward to mince! And tomatoes! Mmmm bolognaise! Haha. What kinda things do u eat per day? X

Get guzzling. Flush all the nasties out! Uv got a good time before weighin to do some seeeeerious shifting! X

Thale asda ones are effectivly the same as slimfast shakes. Need to be supplimented with food, have carbs and sugar so no ketosis, and not Nutrientantly balanced as a full diet like CD is. X

Could i be anymore jealous of ur holidays?! No i think not! X

Ah cool. Im upping to 1000 next week :/

Oooh no way! Ull lose quicker tho coz ur on SS still! Goood luck!!!! :)

Anyone currently on/about to start 1000? Im due to b starting next week and as theyre doesnt seem to be many people on it, we could stick together here. Support,tips, reipes? Anyone????

Weigh in will prob be mon-wed sometime. CDC on hol so whenever she can squeeze me in (shes a mate). Yes i weigh at home anyway but it shows up slightly differently to CDCs. Im hoping ots arpund 10.1-10.2 at the mo. If u work up the steps Properly u dont put on that glycogen/water stores so no...

Jammy! :p rootin for ya to get to 9s! Im dying to get there!!!

Ta spangles. Yep ive done two weeks of 810 and gping up to 1000 monday. Just been looking at ur tread.. Had any good 1000+ not in book? I think i might sit and write some reipes out of the allowed lists lol.

So as im now on the steps i was wondering... Shpuld i expect to put a few lbs back on when i stop CD altogether? Im planning on finoshing the steps then living a kind of uber low carb style for the forseeable.. SlimmingWorld Red day style? Much like the CD recipes...

And measurements over 2 months: Waist: 34in - 32.5in = 1.5in Hips: 40in - 36in = 4in Chest: 34in - 31in = 3in Bust: 40in - 37in = 3in Bum: 42in - 38in = 4in Thighs: 24in - 21in = 3in So thats 18.5inches (48cm?) off the 6 measurements did.

My stats: Starting weight (15/1/12) - 12st 2lb (170lbs) (unofficial) Current weight (15/3/12) - 10st 1 1/2 (141 and 1/2lbs) My little goals: Lose a stone (156lbs) *done* Get under 11 stone (154lbs) *done* Get to 10st 7lbs (147lbs) AMEND TO "get to 10st 6lbs (146lbs)" as this is when i...

Impressive!!!

Lol thnks. My last weigh in was just under 10.5 so cant wait for an "official" weigh in... Its not till monday tho! Bliody better be a good one. I havnt had a single day off plan and am dying for some yumminess! Good luck for tomorrow chick! X

Cheeky look on my scales this morning... 10.1... Cmon for the 9s!!!!!!!!!!

Tut tut ;p Back on 100% CD now then? Or u still Got days off in the line up? X

On minipill here with no periods and since being on CD i have them every other week for a full week! :(

"skinny girls drink water" U need it to flush spmething or another out. Stops u retaining water (ironically). U defo get better losses with better amounts of water.

Odd days off take longer to recover from that u r off. Everytime u come of plan itl take the same tp get back into keto as it did at the beginning. Any carbs will take u straight out of keto.

Ooops! Hope u enjoyed it. I cant wait for "treat food" its been so long. The kids had scones today and it took everything i had not to eat one!!!

Hows it gping???

New batch of 4 portions of dhal in freezer for easy dinners, and tonights dinner all planned. Tuna steak, "coleslaw" (veg with a spoon of yog allowance), lettuce and a soft boiled egg. Yog for pudding. Yummmmmmm. X

Well done girls!!

*kicks* cmon now! U CAN do this. Its gettin in the swing of things isnt it. Getting thay frame of mid of "no, doesnt matter about family dinner etc... Its CD only passing these lips" U will do it. :) x

Hello darlin! Urm fine thanks. Think i'll need to take out shares in Ypghurt tho!!! :/ Wierd coz im totally fed up of meat already :/ i was never a big meat eater before... Easily Go a week and just hav 1 tin of tuna lol. Sp all this meat eating is blurghhhhh. Gonna stick to other proteins for...

Lol not yet. Well they said 10.2 first thing in am... So yeah. Thats 2stone for me! :/ crazy. Odd coz i thought id be thinner than i am at this weight... Im still not 100% happy... :/

Omg just sneakily stood on my scales (theyre not digi and its more out of interest than obsession- i do it most mornings) and theyre showing -2lbs since ive been on 810.. Surely not true?!? Its anpther 2 weeks etween weigh-ins for me.. Npt due to be weighed gain till a week on monday... But...

Woop woop! Still in the lead then!!!! X

There is always gonn b carbs. Its just limited enuf to keep u in keto. Even the shakes have a tiny amount. X

It was nice thanks. Its that ive already got down to bmi 25, so im wprried now iv had to come off ss ill get stuck here!! Thats some great losses girls! Mu biggest loss on SS was week one and that was 5lbs! :( lol! X

I had my 3 shakes and the dinner was spicey dhal soup (as per the book), with half my 0% yog allowance added, and the other half for pudding. I was SO full last night but woke up hungry! Keep wprrying ill come out of keto! :(

YEsterday was first 810 day. Im So worried im either gonna not lose - or gain!!! :/

Oh i never go on the pc. :/ might get round to it one day! Lol.

Use quark - its a smooth cottage cheese, just like philli but better fpr ya sp allowed on this. Mic woth garloc an herbs.. Yum. Also use it to stuff chicken kiev styleeeee. X

Nope no tomato or flour!!! 0% fst plain natural yog can be sub'ed for milk on 810.. Duno abput ss+. Give ur co siltant a call and they tell u the sub amounts if it is xx

Made the spiced dhal soup for dinner. Will have with some yog too. Its 4 portions so of other half doesnt like it i'll freezer it in portions :) excited to be Cooking again. :) Restraining myself from going on a cooking frenzy! Desperate to make tuna fishcakes too! X

Is anoyone else on 810? I need to step up to it now so need some recipe ideas!

Thank u lovelys! Getting there slowly.. Lol. The ends in sight at least. MAnaged to squeeze into a pair of size 12s the other day... Big achievement! X

My stats: Starting weight (15/1/12) - 12st 2lb (170lbs) Current weight (5/3/12) - 10st 4 3/4lbs (144 and 3/4lbs) My little goals: Lose a stone (156lbs) *done* Get under 11 stone (154lbs) *done* Get to 10st 7lbs (147lbs) AMEND TO "get to 10st 6lbs (146lbs)" as this is when i switch to 810...

Thanks. Down to 10 stone 4 and 3/4 lbs now. So 25 and a half lbs off in 7 weeks :) Officially "healthy" at BMI 25! So up to 810 for me! X

Im still here. Juat havnt been weighed for 2 weeks... So hopefully a good loss later today. X

I usually hbe one at 11am (so im not hungry wheb making kids lunches and feeding them), one at 4pm (ditto for kids dinners), then one arpund 8pm x

Thanks im sooo hoping for 5 and a half lbs.. Which in 2 weeks shouldnt b too unrealistic!

Ah sorry dont mean to be mardy!! Lol. Was weigjed last monday.. So nearly 2 weeks. No i dont tend to have them. I have a box but not fussed by them really. Maybe 1 a week occasionally. I drink at least 3ltrs a day and do it all by the book so surely its my turn for a good loss! :) Ah thanks...

No idea still not been weighed. CDC been ill. Been 100% SS tho and had some rubbish losses so its surely about time i got a good one?! I havnt even cheated once! Hate my slow losing body lol. Good luck at ur target! X

Totally forgot to reply to this! Doing ok thanks. Just on a big d a downer over it all today.. Hopefully will perk up soon. How r u doing???

She'll probably know hun. All the local CDs ten to know each orher. Have u tried talkin tp ur CD. Saying u need more support etc? Dont fprget shes got to try and determine i your one of those people who likes to just be in/out or one who wants to hang arpund for advice etc. Maybe she just made...

Oh god i hope so but my scales just rnt budging. :( hoping its dehydrations from this illness and that ill have a good loss when im back to normal. Yeah do some before and nows. Bound to keep u motivated! Oh dear. Bad times when a mushroom omelette is bad! Hardcooooore! X

Wahaaaaaaaay! U jammy thing :p

Mmmmm pecan pie. Keep at it chick. The pecan pie will still be there later. And om so with u for belated pancakes! X

2lbs is fab. Well done :)

On SS excersize doesnt make it faster. Ur not consuming enuf kcals to excersize really. Dont forget the weeks of steps up to maintenence once uv lost ur weight too! X

Im poorly too. I kno its not good to miss shakes but just think.. If u werent on CD would u b eating anythinh? Probably not. So its no less than u wud have been having whilst ill. Maybe mix up half shakes at a time. I cant face bars eother. Just have what u can whilst ur poorly an pick backup to...

I know how u feel chick. Since having my last bubba my periods have been so messed up - ive had 4 this year already! And i always stall weight loss beofre and during. And always crave junk. Just feel like im fightin a neverending battle! Im not riddled with illness and my tummy is in some...

Ay, ive also nptoced fluctuantions when ibe eatn/drunk nothing. Wud be interestion to know the "why"s. X

Mine gurgles alll the time lol

Im full of lergy and feeling quite rubbish :( still on plan tho just feeling sorry for myself. I literally cannpt waot to get to 10.7 ur sp close!!!! X

Well done!

I Know this sounds silly but i thought when id lost much weight (18lbs off, with around 12 to go) thatd id really notice it. When i started i was pushing a size 16.. Im 6lbs away from healthy BMI of 25 and im still a size 14.... I know my CDC says that as u get closer to goal less lbs make a...

Every inch counts ;p

Ah can ya? Thats good! Yog with spices an chicken n veg makes a fab curry! So still good losses then! X

Good girl ;p hehehe. We work tp hard at this tocut corners, eh?! X

Lol im only 5 foot 3.5 tho! Haha. X

Thanks. Was hoping for over 3 lbs as it was over a week. Hopefullyaybe a bigger one next week. Fingers crossed! X

Honey plz dont forget to dp maintenence steps! U dont wanna go jumping back into normal food and shoking ur body into gaining! X

Erm not really thought about it! Dunno how im gonna manage a pint of milk :/ Its just one meal isnt it? Will prob do dinner i think. Really fancy a lentil dahl... Yummy. What u been having? How u getting on? Losses still good on 810? Wprries me i wont loose x

My stats: Starting weight (15/1/12) - 12st 2lb (170lbs) Current weight (21/2/12 - 10st 11 1/2lbs (151 and 1/2lbs) My little goals: Lose a stone (156lbs) *done* Get under 11 stone (154lbs) *done* Get to 10st 7lbs (147lbs) AMEND TO "get to 10st 6lbs (146lbs)" as this is when i switch to 810...

No worries at all. I know what u mean! Im the same. Itl b about 2 months includong the steps up to maintenence if i keep on track. Seems a long time but hoping it flys by. Im applying to be a CDC so thats kinda keeping me focused too!

U must be even shorter than me then!!! Oh deary. Well to still b having losses like this even with a blip is amazing! What mad ethe blip happen! Back on striagt and narrow now. Dot feel like SS+ meals r cheating. Its not. If it keeps u from going off track then so be it! Oh i love omelettes...

Hey hey. Going ok. Slower than u ;p You hav to start going onto 810 when u hit BMI25 (so in 6lbs time for me) - which is y i asked. Was talking to my cdc about it today. Been finding myself having maybe 2 or 3 SS+ meals over the last week. Cant resist dippy fried eggs :/ Hows it going for u...

Belated weigh in at 2 and 3/4 lbs Not great but ho hum. Thats 18 and 3/4lbs in 5 weeks and 1 day. X

5 weeks in and 18 and 3/4lbs lost. Not as much as some but getting there. Got to move to 810 when ive lost the next 6lbs so FC for some good losses so i can do it in 2 weeks. X

I want some of these scales!! Ur still a few lbs ahead of meeeeeee! Whe. Do u have to go up to step 2? I have to in 6lbs time. X

Im the same hun. Many people dobt like to look that far ahead as it can b disheartening so maybe thats y. Ur doing great tho so stick at it! X

Well done hun. So ur just about to cross over into overweight catagory soon then (bmi 30). Thats fab. But as ur still not too close to the "ok" catagory (around 25) youre in no rush to move up steps yet. Prob y she hasnt discussed it with you yet. Dpes that make any sence? X

Course its going down!! Most dont do it every week tho. Shes there to talk to so ask the qs! Whats ur weight/height hun? X

Your not bugging her. A lot of CDCs dont like to discuss it too far in advance coz it makes SS tougher for some. Ask what u need to ask and keep asking until your happy with the answers. X

Some are important fpr reintroducing food groups (so as not to pile weight back on). Discuss with your CDC and theyll advice which steps and when would b good fpr u. Theyre all dofferent timescales too. So for example u can stay on 810 for a long time if u want (for big losses still) But its...

Depends where ur target weight is. Once u hit "normal" bmi u cant do SS anymore so start moving up to 810. U can still lose on the steps its just (possibly) slower than SS, but more suited to lower bmi's. X

Not till tomorrow hun! CDC was busy! Boooooo

Exactly :) dont min really. Its only the cost of both food and packs that puts me off. Lol. My CDC said i can do all of stepping up in 5 weeks so nt too bad. Just an extra month on top x

Agree Deb but im trying to becpme a CDC so need to do the steps. Will be using SW plan when all done "dieting" tho. X

Ta. Ive got about a stone to go :) x

Totally can see the loss! Looking great!

Thanks hun. I asked my CDC an she said i shpuld expect to only lose around 7lbs once i start going up steps. I just need tp decode wen to do that really. No worries of me goin underweight lol. X

Haha yes at the beginning! I dreamt i scoffed a whole roast dinner!

Do u move up steps once youve reached your goal? Or when youve got a certain amout left to go? Do u still lose as u go up or just maintain?

My apologies. I thought u could with the soups too! X

Can alwyas mircowave it :)

Coz it does something to the powder. Its npt ment to get that hot. Destroys nutrients and makes it go a funny consistency. If u boil Kettle and leave for a min or two thats fine. Just not literally boiling. X

Nah, lol. Cant wait to just finish this now really!

Been on Cambridge 100% for exactly one month today. Wow!

Yup, just not with boiling water. X

Its important u still jav ur full amount of ahakes for the nutrients in them - no matter what uv eaten. As said abpve it wasnt aweful, may kick u out of keto so u might hav the syptoms going back in but i doubt itl have a negative effect too much on scales. X

Wow whats amazing losses you are having "chunkystreet"! Im so jealous!

Thanks sweetie. Hopefully only anotger 10-16lbs to go. We'll see. How u going on ur new step? Xx

Woohoo -3 and 3/4 lbs. Which takes me to 11.0 and 1/4 lol. 16lbs lost so far :) an extra half lb and id have broken the 11st barrier but oh well. High hopes fpr next week! X

Am doing. Run out of flavour tho boooooooo. Lol x

Woohoo my scales have finally moved a little. Hope the CDCs scales will have also then! (i never take mine as cprrect - only a guide that im losing not how much). FC for at least 2lb to take me to a stone loss! X

Yep thats what i had last sunday! Canjun spices on a chicken breat woth brocolli. I usually weight between fri-sun depending. Next weigh in is sometime this weekend hopefully tho its TOTM (...again) so dount ill have much loss x

Hmmm wonder if thats got anything to do woth it. Twice iv had food. Broccoli omelette and chicken and brocolli from the SS+ list and amounts. At family meals etc. Hasnt seemed to alter anything for me. Wow i cant elieve ur gettin thpse amazon losses with a weekly meal!!! I wish i could lose it...

Wow i started 16th and uv lost sp much more than me from practicay the same weights. Im so jealous! X

How can i make sure i get good losses? Everyones getting more than meeeee :( x

Yeah. Mine r showing 11.2 today so im with ya! Weigh in friday. Ive ha 3 bars. Im Told they dont make any difference apart from the eatig action can make u want to chew more food. Tough choice! X

Good luck on weigh in! Im not far behund u! Hoping to break the 11st barrier this week! X

Woop woop!!!!! :D im a looooooooser :D Double winner, cant believe it *dpes a little winning dance* wahaaaaaaay! X

It might be pyschological rather than actual hunger! If your not havin anything other than the specifocally recommended plan things then u will be in ketosis. The kcals doeant really matter - its the carbs / acids. Eg fizzy drinks even diet can keep people out of ketosis. U could theoretocally...

U have to be under bmi of 28 i think. Hav successfully Completed the diet. I thinl in total cost inc a good stock etx kts around £600 and y should see profit from that after 4 months or so. U buythem at a fixed price and sell for whatever u wish (hence y theyre all different). And do t forget...

Woop woop 5lbs off this week! Makes up for the rubbish 1lb last week. How do i work out % of body weight lost? I started at 12.2 and hav lost 12lbs now. X

Woop woop. 5lbs off. Made up for the rubbish 1lb last week. So thats 12lb off now. In 19 days. Only another 10-20lb to go lol! X

My CDC said the reason my loss wadnt showing as much is coz i hadn drunk enuf. So keep drinking! X

Check the ingrdients. Doubt it as citric acid is a no-no. X

Depends when u class as morning? I hav a 1 yr old and a 7month old so im regularly up thru the night.. I feel shattered pretty much all the time lol! Well done u tho! Sounds like ur doing fab xxxxx

It shouldnt hun. My tummy rumbles all the time in keto. X

Thanks. 1lb just sucks! Not totally sure. I started at 12.2 and i havnt got under 11 in a long time. So i think id be happy around 10? Id love to get just into the 9s but cant imagine it really! X

Yeah im doing ok. Syarted monday 16th. First weigh in was sat 21st @ 6lb. 2nd was friday 27th @ only 1lb :( Im on 100% SS. A bit demotovated by the small loss but hoping for a catch up this week. X

Honk x16 as ive only just found this. Wish id lost more tho! X

Each CDC can sell them at what ever mark up theu choose. It varies from area to area. You can only purchase through them. X

I use the shaker bottle too. Water first, then powder, then metal ball on top! Important that order. X

Id love that! I was so cold earlier. These two little gobljns of mine would never allow me a bath tho! Lol. Im better now. Its just when its right in front of me. :(

Well done on ur loss! And luck u with ur food! X

I kno. Bread is my nemesis. But arrrrgh. Wish i could Hibernate away from food Sometimes. X

Easily my biggest weakness. Toast. The baby is sat munching away now. Im drooling. The smell of it toasting, the melting butter. I can almost taste it. Someone snap me out of it?? X

Hello. Alcohol whilst on SS is a bad mix, ull need to come off in advance if ur gonna drink! X

Me!!! Im mentally struggling after that measly 1lb loss. Better make up for it this werk or i shant be happy! 4lb at least please!!!! :)

Try making them up in halfs. 6 smaller and nore watered down shakes instea of 3 full ones? X

Taste a mini bottle Of mouthwash with u to work? X

Thanks sweetheart. Its just frustrating. I could lose more than a lb on bloody slimming world and actually get to eat! Pah. Hoping for better next week! X

Thanks. Nope no inches either. Felt crappy. So i made an omelette. By the SS+ book tho.. Just two eggs cooked. Felt better tho. Feeling sorry for myself. Was hoping for a 4lber at least. Im hoping it is just TOTM related and that i get a good loss next week. She sai i looked obviously leaner...

Only -1lb :'( 100% SS no cheating no food. Totally gutted.

I kno it just sucks. All that hard work. For 1 measly lb! :( i better get a good loss next week. So annyed all these people who get 12lb+ in their first two weeks and i get 7! :(

Only one flipping lb off at weogh in :'(

I used to drink it a lot and it made me constantly hungry and my losses poor. I think ot keptnme out of keto. This time around no fizzy drinks (i was proper addicted) and im doing sp much better. X

Getting weighed in today. 6 days since last weigh in and day 12 in total... Will keep u posted x

How are u dossapointed at 4.4lbs when 3lbs a week is average?! Thas great honey! X

Woohoo! I cant wait to remember my jawline, collarbones and hip bones... :/ lol!

Well i cheekily stood on my scales first thing this morning - finally showing a loss. Woohoo. I'm less nervous that weigh in will hold no loss now! :) Day 10 - bring it on! X

Oh my gosh u look so different - u hav such a gorgeous jawline in that 3rd photo.. I miss my jawline... Havnt seen it since about 10st!! Lol.

Good! Drink up! Just mash and beans for them tonight. Lucky *******. They had curry last night - that was pure torture to cook. Aww look how tiny u r. U look really young too? Hpw young r u there? And what weight? I have no idea how to get a pic up here on from my phone. I dont think i'll...

Do not miss a shake!!!! Its not about the kcals its the nutrients! U need at least 3 to have optimum nutrients to lose weight! A forth wouldnt have made a negative tpwards weight loss dont wprry, but only 2 tpday might! :) Jist cooked and fed kids dinner - want food now :(

My tummy rumbles a lot - loudly! And im orml in ketosis. Anyhoo glad ur better now!

Day 9 and going surprisingly well :)

U kno ketostix arent always right yea? Not everyone has enough "overspill" of ketones when in ketosis to register on the stix. How do u feel? If npt headachey or hu gry id b inclined to say ignore the stix! X

Thanks hun. It hink CDC wrte it down wrong and its 6lbs but ill check wen i next see her. Nothing since tho :( feel likes ive got loads to go still :( Struggling to drink enuf - tho its a lot more than before! About 1.5-2litres a day. :/

How longs it been? Hpw do u kbow? Ketostix or how u feel? X

Yea they se to run two lb less than CDCs scales so i base it on roughly that and kno to take it with a pinch of salt. I just wanna see it going down! :( x

Ah extra shake is fine. Its not breaking the diet - just an extra 150 kcals on one day.uch better than junk food! Yep patience is key... Of which i hav none!!! :/ x

Same im finding it tough now. Power thru this week then aparently it gets easier! More routine! I better lose something this week (inches or lbs!) or i wont be happy!!!!

Thays amazing chick well done! Shedding those inches! Which i guess means more in real life than the lbs! All motivated for another week? X

Thanks hun. Still feeling down in the dumps. Kids winding me up a treat tpday and i really want carby goodness. Stoodnon the scales and havnt lost even a lb either... Ive seen other on here see the acales go down daily or every few days :(

If he does then salad no dressing and chicken with no sauce is ur best bet. Push stuff around the plate. He'll never know ;p Have water and say its somethig else when he arrie sthen if he offers a drink say. "water this time please" x

Diet coke is also a no-no my old CDC sakd i could have it an it kept Knocking me kut of ketosis. New CdC explaine y an doin sp much better. As limited drink for one nice its prob the best choice... Or soda water is totally fine. X

3lbs is average hun. Dont b disheartened. X

Kinda ok. Keep getting sulky coz i miss food. And that others kn here ha much bigger firs weeknlosses than me :( which is silly really. The only thing stopping me stuffing my fave is that itl just take me longer. If i can keep to this - itl b pver quicker! Feel like im slightly obsessing over...

Well thats offically a week done!

Yessss sounds strange but helping motivate other kinda motivates me more! Thats kinda wired isnt it?! I just keep saying "skinny girls drink water!" lol It was 6 and a bit lbs on morning of day 6 (sat). Omg i dream abput eating... I woke up panicing thinking id eaten a full roast! Lol!! I...

Yeah spund slike the same as me hun. Missing food mixed woth empty tummy = thinking u feel hungry. Just keep downing that water and the bloat will go. Ive had a miserable few days too. Just grumpy. Feel like this should b a missbe achievement but feel no different really. Good luck with weigh...

Dont b dissapointed ! 3lb a week afyer the initial week is perfectly normal! :) x

Sat at inlaws with them all tucking into a scrummy smelling dinner... My tummy is rumbling...

Is it hunger or emptyness? I feel empty a lot. And my tummy gurles like mad. But im not hungry? Yeah mega jealous of food too!! We can do it chick. Just remember - skinny girls drink water!!!! Aparntly hot water helps u feeling less empty? Hows it going tho? X

Ru in ketosis hun? U shouldnt b hungry? Are u drinking enlugh water? Drink more an itl help the water retention (ironically) and boating. X

Ta :) tho the way shes wrotten it down it works out at 6lbs to me... So shes either written it wro or told me wrong! Lol. X

6and 3/4lbs in 5 and 1/2 days :)

6 and 3/4 lbs in 5 and 1/2 days :D

Hope u feel better for unburdening yourself! FC u stay in ketosis and weightloss continues tl go well!

Hello. Day 6 here! Still going 10% tho strugglin to get enuf wafer in unless spend all day obsessing over it! My CDC is Either gonna pop by this afternoon, or im going to her tomorrow, for weigh-in, depending on how day pans out! Im quite excited but worried! X
