    Getting back into it - its all mind over matter

    Of course you can keep your old tickers but what Im getting at is that its all about refreshing and reprogramming our minds and getting ourselves on a new journey! I think whilst we are all here to help the ones that struggle, it really puts a negative spin on the whole "getting back into it...

    Getting back into it - its all mind over matter

    I've had a brain-wave and am just kinda thinking out loud - I dont know if anyone will agree with this theory? Well, I've had so much past experience myself with the whole starting and stopping thing, whether its just because you had a bad weekend and needed a break willing to get back into it...

  215. unreal83

    chocolate shake

    I would say the chocolate shake tastes just like mcdonalds milkshake (without the 15 teaspoons of sugar apparently!) and the chocolate tetra tastes just like belgian chocolate - its stronger you know. How are you doing Keeley? Do you still keep up with your blog? I couldnt seem to find it on...

    Indian on Friday night!

    Nope! Didn't end up going as I stopped by Benefit and bought myself a face scrub with the intentions of going home for a nice bath instead, I did and it was lovely! The face scrub smells of almonds - so yummy. Made up with the b/f in the end!

    This is where I need help I think

    So...I had a row with my boyfriend and something that comes into my head is... Im going to have a chicken kebab tonight to treat myself as I am fed up and just want to treat myself. Why why why do I have to think I will lean on food to make me feel better? Why do men get into silly moods...

    Milk

    Thanks so much. xx
  228. unreal83

    Milk

    Im DYING for a cup of tea with 3 sweeteners and milk. Would it really hurt if I had some milk? I dont like my tea very milky anyway so it wouldnt be much. I just feel down and want a cup of tea.

    Why is it taking sooo long?

    Oh Gilliano I know how you feel - it is so disheartening. But we know if we give up, we'll never reach that goal, and we will feel even worse if we do give up. Keep going - I think maybe cut down on the exercise for now see if that makes a difference.
  230. unreal83

    How do you cope?

    Right that does it! Put a picture up now!! You are 10 13 yes? And you are 5 foot 6 yes? So you must be a size 12? How can u be chubby! I bet u arent!
  231. unreal83

    How do you cope?

    So you weigh the same as me - 10 13 and a half! I am 2 inches shorter than you and to be honest I feel the same today. I dont feel like i have to stop walking, i do have energy but its funny how my weight has stopped at this weight also and its so frustrating. Your body is telling you to slow...

    I need your wisdom... got my BP checked

    Oh gawd FC I hope u are ok!!!! I have never fainted but feel dizzy sometimes and maybe for some this could stem to fainting - after all we arent eating much. I dont know if more water would help?

    Morning everyone! Can someone help?

    Well finally I got an email back! I kicked up a right fuss to the new company and didnt accept the fact that she could not email anyone or contact anyone, and hello i got an email from Baumhouse which was a coincidence so maybe she got tired of my moaning and forwarded it on! Bad news is I...
  234. unreal83

    How do you cope?

    How tall are you Emma? Are you having enough packs? How about trying 4 packs a day anyway or splitting your three so you have 6 small meals, this may up your sugar levels and make you feel better. Also drinking the flavoured water may make you feel a lot better as its an extra boost. You...

    Anyone been to Germany?

    Well their stock was very similar to here, I thought their clothes out there were actually better, I went in the winter and got a gorgeous coat from Zara, their shoes were lovely and they did loads of lovely dresses so their summer stuff is bound to be lovely!
  236. unreal83

    Anyone been to Germany?

    Its very pretty, very SATC!! I like it. I am sure you will be, enjoy it!

    Morning everyone! Can someone help?

    Morning! Well I only lost a pound this week - not too happy - but all I can do is keep drinking the water and hope for a better loss next week. Ok so I have a problem - again!!! Has anyone here heard of Baumhouse? They are an online Birkenstock shop in Germany, selling cheap Birkenstocks...

    Clothes size consitancy

    I would say M&S are about right! BUT! Once I bought a sleeveless shirt in there, a white one - and also tried it on in orange. The white fitted just right, whilst the orange was so big! I asked why, they were both size 10s! Apparently, different manufacturers have different colours and...

    crisps

    Here's a detailed recipe i put on another thread. Right - there are recipes but this is how I do it! You need baking paper (not greaseproof cos they stick!) Get a plastic bowl and tip in your sachet - I think OC are the best ones. Bit by bit add some water and mix until it is the consistency...

    Mix a Mousse! Its slightly more calories. I think I can take or leave the mousses to be honest so I might give it a miss this week. Thank u - I just wanna lose this weight quicker, when i was this weight last time on the diet it was dropping off, now this time its a different story!!
  248. unreal83

    Since May 20th

    I've lost blooming 6.5lbs just over. Thats in 3 weeks!! So frustrating. I am thinking of ruling out MAM and water flavouring this week plus doing some light exercise - do you think this will help me? Im getting annoyed as I haven't seen a good loss for ages, at least 3/4lbs u know! Just...
