thats a great start :)

well done!!

Cheers guys, just need 3 this week for my minni target of 10.5 st :-)

Towards the end of week2/3 I noticed a sudden difference in how I looked, - also to echo what was said above , it's important to count up your weight loss by the month, because if not a week where you only lose a pound or two can really set you back emotionally

Well done both of you!! 9's are just around the corner!!!

Ha :) - been waiting all week to post on this one, made it in to the tens today after a 4lb loss this week, looking forward to hitting the next target of 10st7lb then 9st :)

Good luck with that, - lost 4lb this week, so pleased with that :)

Mine is on a Saturday, think I might just tell her not to tell me, .. I feel happy all week then when she tells me the number it depresses me!

1 stone 1lb lost so reached my valentines goal.

Well I'm feeling a bit miserable today, first weigh in for two weeks and lost 6lb, I think I just hoped for more over two weeks, especially as it took such willpower to go to France for a weekend and not cheat at all. Then I'm going on a hen day tomorrow at a spa, we are all booked in for the...

I started the second time on the 24th Jan - I maybe spoke too soon, having a miserable day today!! dreamt about finishing my sons food off and woke up thinking I had!!

Good luck!! - Im on my second time after a disastrous refeed, (ie didnt at all and proceeded to eat all of the worlds bread and any other carbs) I'm finding it much easier this time, - Im so determined, and last time I was always looking for little ways to cheat, this time I'm not even thinking...

Good luck - keep coming on here, especially when it gets tough :)

Honk day 22 - weigh in tomorrow :S

I've not suffered with any itching at all, but these things affect people differently x

Well done on day two! The first week is the hardest, after that you start to settle in to it, it's just sheer determination I think... I switch off at food and think of other stuff, as if preparing something I don't like when I have to cook for the family. Just get through these few days and...

Ooh I've been wanting to have a go at zumba, it sounds fun, just got to fit it in past all the roller derby!

I agree, no employer will interview someone who has no chance, it's a waste of their time.. You need to walk in there and think what you would do if you were starting next week!!

Yeah I go pretty much every day, I put a tiny bit of fibre clear in my shake once a day- last Time I did lipotrim I didn't go for a week and I can tell you it wasn't nice when I realised this wasn't normal!!

Thanks Jude, fingers crossed!! honk day 19, and Wow Teapot you are doing amazing!!

Thats great - but even if he doesn't continue, you can feel good that you are still 100% My other half needs to lose weight, but I havent even tried to get him to do this because I know he wouldn't. I have started the whole family on a lovely healthy eating plan, no crazy diets, just healthy...

wow thanks :) x

wow Retro thats a massive loss, well done!!

Ive just discovered peppermint tea and its got me through some tough days, its just a nice refreshing taste and seems to cleanse your pallet a little bit from that fury mouth feeling too.

well done! you can totally tell you are changing shape :)

HI Jude, Thanks, I don't know really, I was away with 15 men that I coach in a sports team too so there was lots of food and beer involved, I was stood in this steak house thinking 'well if I only eat the steak it will be all right but I don't want to break my 100%' I had it in mind how good...

Massive honk for this whole weekend where I've been away to France and stayed 100% the whole time :-) day 17 now

Oh well I should be losing big this week then with all the extra layers I've had to wear, people think I'm going mad!! :)

Honk Day 13 full 100% :)

Its fantastic and inspirational to hear from someone who has done the refeed and managed to keep of the weight, my last attempt was a year ago - I took a break for a holiday and its taken me until now and two stone in weight to get back on it! I'd be very interested to know what you did for your...

Oh my gosh, the last few days have really been hard with being so cold, its depressing! I had to wear 4 tops, a jumper woolly socks, a woolly hat and a scarf to work from home yesterday, and I had the heating turned up really high, I just cant get warm, I hate it!!

Well done!! just keep taking each day as a new one, you CAN totally do this!!

Its horrible isn't it! I try and drink more and more water to combat it, then I suddenly feel like I'm drowning from the inside!!

oh dear, hope you feel better soon, take care

Lol , Tina that just made me shudder just thinking about it :S

Thanks guys :) Retrochick, just get through these next couple of days and you've broke the back of it, you'll have hungry days again, but I've found you have a few days of feeling ok and with energy etc in between. Keep at it, just one day at a time. :)

I'm the same, around 400 ml of cold water in the lipotrim shaker, drink it straight from that - cant stand any lumps, they make me gip.

Oh my word, what a fantastic loss!!!

Good for you, just one day at a time, dont break it now your started, you CAN totally do this!

I totally understand how you feel, my first time I lost 11lb in the first week, this time I lost 8,(in ten days) I was pretty disappointed. But like LeahCnnr says, the first week is mainly water, its these next few weeks where the fat drops away. Keep at it, you know it'l be worth it, don't let...

Had my weigh in today, lost 9lb and I'm pleased with it... although secretly I think I hoped for more as my weigh in was 10 days in, and I've been 100% the whole time.(last time I lost 11lb in my first week, and I'd cheated a teensy bit) oh well just got to think that would have taken me 3...

welcome :) I had a nosey at the picture last week, aren't they fabulous!! How is everyone getting on? I have my first weigh in tomorrow although it'll be day 10 for me. looking forward to it, hoping to see a nice big number. bloomin hungry though today, first day I think I'v felt hunger rumbles...

hOw are you getting on?

I'm the same I keep reusing shop bought water bottles. keep at it, the first couple of days are the hardest, then you get in the flow.

I think you have hit the nail on the head NewMummy, some people get worried by a change and usually doing something like this changes a person, and their whole mind set, some 'friends' can be unnerved by it, and I think without meaning to/subconsciously actually try to stop it from happening.

I agree, - last year when I did it I lost a huge amount in the first week and didn't notice anything really, the next few weeks were 3lb weeks and I really noticed the difference, and so did others, people started saying how 'skinny' I looked, just think that actually its not a number on the...

Well done for jumping back in, I reckon the first shakes the hardest!! I'm on day 7 today and have remained 100% so pleased with myself. Gonna kick its arse this time!

I Agree, I find it so frustrating, people seem to look down on it as if your being silly doing it in this way.... If I had the patience and self discipline to controll my relationship with food I'd certainly be doing that!

You can do it, tomorrow will be different :-)

Yep, tomorrow's another day, just one day at a time. :-)

Thanks, finding it hard this evening, my minds drifting to food, hopefully get an early night and feel better tomorrow. The first weigh in will make it worth it!! How are you all doing?

I know exactly what you mean, I did this diet for about 6 weeks last year - went off on an all inclusive holiday and you can guess what happened! I couldn't make myself get back on it, Its taken almost a year. I likened it to getting in to the cold sea when youve been in before and have got out...

Hello, Im doing ok, still 100% Yesterday was terrible, I was so tired I actually cried, but that was due to being so active Saturday and Sunday, mid training session I just cried! determined to stay focused though. How about everyone else?

Thanks. hope your weigh in goes well, I know, I'm going to have to take it easy until my body gets used to the diet, the sport isn't something new though, I've been playing Roller derby every weekend for about 2 years, if only I hadn't come home and ate dominoes after all that time !! ;) My...

Ohh I'm up for this - going to a Hen weekend Spa day on the 16th - so put me down for 14lb please :)

Hello, I started yesterday, been rummaging around these forums wondering where to start, I know it will help if I feel I have some people to share the experience with. Had a massive headache yesterday but drank much more water today and feel fine, I do a lot of sport at the weekend so...

Wow, those pictures are fab! I'm on day 2 and determined to stay 100% until I reach my goal, looking at things like this is going to help!
