Hi guys, i've decided to start a diary. ive been reading through all of yours, and they're great! So, today I am starting S&S for the third time in around a year. My starting weight is 172 (at 5ft 6), currently a size 14, and my goal is to have a flat tummy and to fit into a size 10. Just...

Suzi, having your first major slip up feels terrible, and dealing with the sugar hangover is not pretty, but you've gone through those first few painful days before - u can do it again! TEN WEEKS with no major slip-ups is amazing! you'll be right back on track in a couple of days. You've done...

Thanks Honey! well done for getting through day 1! So far I've found it does get easier day by day. Today is Day 6 for me: Woke up feeling SO dehydrated - tickly throat and a dry mouth - despite drinking 4 litres of water yesterday - which is my record so far. I suppose I need to keep pushing...

great tips!

I'm 12st 6 and a size 14 - I'd like to get down to a small size 10. When I was 11st 6lb I was a size 12 - so I'm guessing at a goal weight of about 10st

Ordered 2 of these in this months pack - looks like mixed reviews so far

I ordered a months supply yesterday (the first time i only ordered 2 weeks worth) - it took me ages, but its kinda exciting and when thhe package arrived today, it was like getting a present :) - although i have a weakness for bars, and having 28 bard sitting in a box in my room, asking to be...

Hi guys I started slim and save last Monday (18th June) weighing in at 175lb (12st 7lb). I was determined to stick to my 4 packs a day plan, but was picking at all sorts; chicken, cheese, peanuts etc so really not a great start - fine during week days while at work it was fine, but evening...

woohooo back in ketosis Thanks guys, very helpful. just had my 3rd pack so I'm gonna take my time preparing a nice tuna salad. It says in the book to have it with low fat dressing, but I thought low fat dressings were higher in carbs? Also, can we grill or dry-fry? Well done wanabeslim...

Hi Guys! I've just restarted SSing after a Week long fall off the wagon! I’m on day 3 & it is so much tougher than the first time round – I’m thinking than a nice chicken salad to look forward to in the evening would make all the difference. But I don’t want to slow down weightloss...

well done! I'm comming to the end of day one (again) too! roll on day 2.

I was just thinking about the same thing!, but whether it would be ok to do it Atkins style (a no-carb meal) so being able to stay in ketosis?? would that completely sabotage everything. I haven't been on it as long as you gloria - this is day 6 & by my own scales I've lost about 6lbs I'm...

Thanks guys, you're right about the mental thing - it's made me so much more aware of all the food around - it was doing my head in all the way home from work. but I just got home - made up a nice frothy icy shake and its really filled me up!

I'm only on day 4 & I just ate some beef jerky - I thought it was just a bit of protien so wouldnt do much harm - but I just realised the favouring has sugar in it!! will this totally ruin everything and take me out of ketosis? How long will it take to get back in? I can't believe it! I was...

I almost had a strepsil to try to make my throat feel better, but that wouldnt be allowed would it?

Hi guys, I finally took the plunge and started the diet on Tuesday. The first day wasn’t so bad, I didn’t really feel very hungry and I was very excited about starting. :sigh: Day 2 (yesterday) was a little more complicated – I was hungry but stuck to the packs all day – then in the...

Thanks!

Hi Guys! I decided to start LL after all... Thanks for all your advice. I got weighed and my BMI checked at the information session 2 weeks ago and It was 294 - just within the qualifying band. I got my doctors form signed last week (which i was shocked to have to pay £25 for!) I'm going...

hairloss Dont worry Twinny, That hairloss story sounds really scary. especially if it never grew back... Progressgirl, did it ever grow back? also, on the all about W8 programme what is thr counceling like compared to the LL counceling? I checked the website and there arent any councilers...

Thank You! Thanks SO SO much for your responses. they were all very helpful I went to the LL information session today and it did answer some things.... but will deffinately loook into W8

Hi guys, :wave_cry: I've been an observer on the boards for a few weeks... I would like to ask you advice… I am currenty 13st (the heaviest I have ever been) and 5ft 6 Making my BMI 29 which just about fits into the requirements for lighter life. It seems so great because it is pretty...
