Thanks everyone for the encouragement! I've weighed in a day early today, partly due to being on an early shift tomorrow and could do with an extra 5mins in bed and partly due to today being a PV day. Anyway down another 2lbs, so am very happy with that. I've struggled a bit this past week, with...

Well, I knew my new placement was going to be busy but it's actually manic!! A&E is not the job for me, thankfully just 5wks left. Weigh in was great yesterday -3.75lbs, probably due to all the extra walking! At least that's one good thing in this placement's favour! Onwards....

Well done, fabulous feeling isn't it!

Lovely to try on new uniforms and have them fit, admitedly they are still in my "old" size and are only just loose, but an improvement on being afraid they were going to burst apart at the seams all day long! Am intending to have them hanging off me before too much longer! PV day today...

Thanks trudy, yes can't believe it, 1lb to go and that's the first stone gone, will be a fabulous feeling. Still can't believe how committed to this diet I feel, especially after trying and failing at every other!! Think it has to do with not having to feel hungrey and actually seeing some...

Thanks trudyc, I write out a menu at the start of the week and try to stick to it. I knew that this diet would be challenging because I don't eat fish of any kind and I know I won't stick to it if it's just chicken or beef, chicken or beef etc, so I've tried to do a few different things. The...

Oh trudyc what you said is so true! Normally when shopping on a diet things would just 'appear' in the trolley and obviously once paid for and at home had to be eaten and down the slippery slope I would once again go! This time I haven't even been tempted once, a first for me and long may it...

Thanks trudyc and zoebear, it's great to hear of the success others are having with the diet. Previously I've tried just about every diet going and by the end of day 2 have usually slipped up somewhere, but this time it feels different. I haven't felt any side effects, headaches or anything so...

Hang in there Miss B, everyone says it gets easier after day three - here's hoping!!!

Right. Stepped on the scales first thing this morning (after way too long) and discovered I'm at least a stone heavier than I thought, but I'm determined that this time I'm going to make a diet work for me and not give in at the first temptation and then give up, which is what usually happens...

Well, I've just about survived my first day of attack! Feeling ok, so far! Also feeling very determined after stepping on the scales this morning, for the first time in ages, and finding I'm at least a stone heavier than I thought :mad: Anyway, good luck to all just starting out, hopefully we...

New Year = New Me! Have finally decided that enough is enough and that this is the year I finally do something about my weight. I've tried just about every other diet going, but always seem to give up and end up going back to the bad old ways of chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!! I've...
