    What is commitment

    I see where you are coming from, and you are so right, commitment is key. Get focussed, stay focussed, you cant go wrong. My focus is to diet for 13 weeks, everyday, no excuses. We are going away for a weekend soon, and im not going to let that be an excuse to break my diet. I have stuck to...

    how much did you lose in 1st wk?

    I lost 7lb first week and so far 5lb 2nd week, im not doing a low carb meal replacement, just cutting out carbs and making my 1000 - 1200 cals a day work for me with low carb options such as chicken salad, low starch veg soups, with high protein additions.

    Gallstones, Pain Relief and Nutrition

    To be honest I cannot see how this would work, and i think gracie is mixing up kidney stones with gall stones. Gall stones sit in the gall bladder and have no where to go, they are made of cholestrol mainly, and it is the hard ones that also contain protein that cause pain. Kidney stones are...

    13 weeks diet

    yes 12lbs in 10 days is a lot which is why i think its more to do with fluid retention loss, than actual weight loss. The next few days will tell though, so fingers crossed it stays off.

    Gallstones, Pain Relief and Nutrition

    You can water them down, i always make mine with a bit more water than they recommend. Exante is good, but you have to buy it online, but you could get a slimfast and try it. Im not suprised that the nuts set you off to be honest, they have a high concentration of oil in them for their small size.

    13 weeks diet

    Still going good, i got on the scales this morning although i should keep off them! but i suddenly feel thinner. Scales say 12st 5lb. Must be fluid loss though, as thats 12lbs in 10 days, so it might go up again. Keeping focussed on the diet, eating lots of salad and making homemade soups. Its...

    Gallstones, Pain Relief and Nutrition

    Some foods will have a worse effect for others, some people cannot eat onions or cucumber for instance without severe pain, for others iw will be fatty food. I remember even now 20 odd years later the extreme pain i had after eating a lamb chop. If you can eat nuts and crackers without setting...

    Looking to start sunday, motivation very much needed!!

    ok maybe i worded that wrong lol. Dont get me wrong, i love meal replacements, they are an important part of my diet. The OP is saying though that they have a food addiction, and this can be really hard to break. You go on a total source replacement diet, then possibly after a few days give...

    Is January the worst month to diet?

    You are probably right, maybe i just feel more positive and in a better frame of mind when the weather is warmer and the sun shining (potentially lol)

    can't beat night time snacking :(

    Waking up hungry at night is awful and should be banned! Maybe a high protein low fat snack of some sort would help get you through the night? Although its probably much more to do with the amountof carb you eat during the day, so cutting back on carbs overall will really help with the nightime...

    Looking to start sunday, motivation very much needed!!

    Good luck with the Sunday start, meal replacements are a good way to get you started, but hard to stick to. However, if you can get 3 good days behind you with meal replacements, then your willpower may be stronger to get down to a more normal diet.

    Will my weight loss slow within weeks?

    Keeping off the scales is as important to sticking to a diet as the calories you consume, in my opinion. I dont believe weight loss is a simple matter of calories in, calories out. It might be the case for putting on weight lol, but losing weight has a whole other set of issues to deal with...

    I got some from Tesco, I noticed that there were several brands on sale. Canderal have their own version. The jar looks huge against the Truvia jar for £3.29 whereas the Truvia is in a much smaller jar for £4.99. However, you need to look close at the labels. Canderal version states 2 cals per...
