Omg they look like real chips, I started Atkins on Monday and totally broke it today for choco and a chippy tea lol will be back on next week, ps my daughter will be going into year 7 next year she excited

Your meals sound lush, have just found out about oppsie rolls and luv them, I put cheese and pepperoni and grill and make pretend pizzas yum, sorry your trip got cancelled but maybe it was best as the weathers been terrible today

Have u tried having your cals on liquid form, find it easier myself, juices, soups, bovril, 10 cal jelly's

I do Sunday, tues and Thursday and down days and Saturday as an intermittent day by having 1000 cals, am into week 2 and 4 lbs down so seems to be working , good luck you can do it

Course you can its called adf alternate day fasting but most do have sat and sun as UD days or others do strict alternates and fast every other day for quicker results, good luck

I just make a huge pan of homemade soup and eat all day and prob toast for supper, am trying for 350/400 on dd as I don't lose in 500, good luck

Hya, why don't you try the 500/2000 for 2 weeks and see how you get on, if u lose carry on if you don't give it a tweak by have less on dd and so on, good luck

Well done on the loss!! Doesn't matter that you can tell the numbers on the scale at least you can tell by fitter into smaller clothes. Shows its working

Another dd for me homemade tomato soup made with onion carrots celery and Tim of plum tomatoes and purée, 2 pints of stock, under 200 for the lot, gonna have for both meals and toast for supper, hope everyone has a good dd

Hya, had a bit of a gain over Easter family and kids off and ate way to much, so back to it today, plan on making a huge pan of pot leek and brocolli soup for the whole day , toast and muller yogurt for supper, good luck to anyone on dd today

It's alternate day diet or johnson's up day down day diet

Great loss!! Well done.

Make more soup next time and keep your belly full and save ice cream for tomorrow lol. I try to stay away from carbs make u more hungry, gl

Dd for me after egg feat that was weekend!! Made a huge pan of potato, leek and brocolli soup had for lunch and a bowl before homemade chilli ( no rice ) am guessing about 350 so far, so toast or yogurt for later, good luck everyone

Could just be water prob be gone in a day it 2, the scales can by all over the place on this diet, 9lb loss in a week is amazing, well done

Good thread I can join in on family meals instead of just cooking myself diet food and everyone else normal food and of course it's Easter so can have an Easter egg yay!!

I would if I didn't have kids lol too much temptation, good on ya though!! :)

Have u tried the diet or just read the book? Some ppl lose on 2 days 500/2000 some ppl add an extra day 500/2000 or drop one to maintain My stats say I should be on 340/1700 to lose , everyone has to find out what works for them, and gives them a calorie deficit, good luck

This week I've gained or STS after dd and then lost weight after up day, don't know if any one else does??

Well done that's a great loss!!

Made a huge pan of potato, leek and broccoli soup and just ate that all day, abt 200 cals and prob ate 2/3 of it, toast and chilli philli cheese for supper and an orange choco muller light, 400 for the day I think, good luck to anyone else on dd

Mmmm stay strong!!! Soon be an up day

Hope you are feeling better soon, lots if ice cream too cool your throat , doctors orders lol

It will get easier, first day is hard but u can do it

That's great blu, good loss for your first week!!

Good luck it's by far the most enjoyable diet as you only have to be on a diet 2/3 days a week and can be flexible, keep us posted on how u get on

Depends on your eating habits some ppl save there cals and have a big meal at night others spread them thru the day, there's a diet section is u want to check it out

Am on fast today, had a bovril and 10 cal jelly and a ham and mushroom omelette , gonna have toast and chili Philadelphia cream cheese for supper , don't mind a Sunday as I normally stay in bed later and go bed early, the shortest day for me, it's harder when I am up at 7.00 with kids am...

Amazing before and after pics you've done so well you must be proud !!

Of course it is!! I failed on mine yesterday, did well all day and then cracked at night, first time ever I've gone off plan so not too worried, must if needed the extra lol

You should try sticking to 500, exersize when fasting burns more fat, that's what they are saying on the other forum, I did the 30 day shred on a fast day and felt my appetite was surpressed for about an hour after and felt great

Good luck you can do it?!

Yay! Congrats for the weight loss!

Dd for me so far had couple of bovrils x 10 cals each 10 cal jelly 80 g tuna 80 cals with mushrooms and salad x 20 cals 130 cals so far and just plan to have a ham and mushroom omelette for tea about 180 cals 190 left for supper prob toast and yogurt :)

Ty think I will start alternates again, 24 hour fast sounds tough, only 11.00am and all I can think of is food lol

Ty for your reply, not tried it just googling it last night, tried 4:3 for a while and my losses stopped, would lose in the week and gain it back at the weekend 2 up days, stuck to 500/2000 Perhaps indeed to tweak it maybe :)

What are ppl's thoughts on the 8 hour window , have done the ADD and had good results but find I have really bad habits on up days and eating too much junk, has anyone lost by doing this daily, fasting 16 and eating for 8? Would love to hear your thoughts !! Ty

Have done it nearly everyday , missed one day, ate way under cals and still not lost so ate pizza for tea and now drinking wine lol think the "lose 20lb in 30 days is a little far fetched for us

Aww so sorry you are feeling let down, yesterday did the shred, went for an hours dog walk, kids went in the park and I went on the outdoor gym , I ate under my cals and I didn't get rewarded on the scales either, only the inch loss that's keeping me going Enjoy your swim and hope u get a good...

Did u do measurements befor you started ? I haven't lost any either, well 1/2 pound but it came back the next day lol but have lost 2 inches from waist and 1 from belly and bum and feel better and have muscles I never knew I had!!

Your probably more hungry because u are working out more, have done a couple of days on level 2 and quite like it as it seems to end quicker, level 1 I am praying for it to end, had to miss a day but back to it today and abs feel really sore

I had a quick look at level 2 so I know what's to come, level 1 still kicking my butt so think ill stay for a bit longer, gl everyone we will all be toned for summer!!!

Ty for reply, cute that your 5 year old tries to do it too, I just have my dog sniffing my face while trying to do press ups lol I should stay away from the scales and I feel much better doing the workouts, good luck

Tried a lot off diff diets but come back to cal counting hoping to get to target and maintain , good luck to you we will both get to level 2 soon

Am about 12 lb from target already lost abt 36 dieting alone and

Just done day 5 and still finding it hard to keep up with everything on level 1!! How will I advance, have u guys lost weight on this, I seem to have gained lol

Maybe if you came from a lower cal diet you could gain in your first week, but if you stick with it for another few weeks u should see a loss

Good for you, you've done so well, just think of all the nice size 10 summer clothes you can buy this year, and remember that u know how to lose it if you gain in the future

Day 4 over! No where near moving to level 2

Can I join!!! started on Monday so have done 3 rd today, bit less achy today 3/30

Stir fry :)

Every diet we do the losses are good in the start and then our bodies adjust so our perfect diet should be a mash up of all our fave diets lol Day 1 fast Day 2 upday Day 3 potato day Day 4 excersise Day 5 ww Day 6 sw Day 7 another up day We should all be slim in no time lol

You've done really well!! Hope are feeling better soon!! Upday today and tomorrow for me dd Sunday :(

They do trick u into thinking that u have had some soup lol and then a 10 cal jelly for afters haha

Goid luck on Sw, didn't work for me since they said you can say what u like, if u stick to the 1/3 super free 1/3 free scenario you should be fine

Lol @ soup I always go for the chicken noodle but add extra salt and pepper ( needed for flavour) or even just a cup of bovril for 10 cals is nice

I count 35 cals for 100 ml skimmed milk and use sweetener, that pretty much does my whole day

You sound like you are doing everything right to me, with me every diet I try I plateau really quickly so end up flitting between diets losing a few pounds on every one, at least if you aren't gaining then u are doing something right!! G. Luck

Also if u think you are holding onto water weight try lemon in your water and eating asparagus both are diuretics, gl

I seem to have better results on dd just cutting carbs out, have had 2 weeks off and plan to start again on Sunday. Gets so unmotivated when u don't lose for a while

I know lol we've only done tues/wed so will weight on Sunday and see if its any better, the mail hasn't actually posted what Mediterranean is yet so prob easier to stick to slimming world , started doing the alternate day diet first but found I was bingeing on the non diet days when it says eat...

Me and hubby started this one this week, I was less hungry and found it a little easier, hubby lost 5 lbs and I didn't lose any yet but still in the first week so will carry on for another week and see if it improves

Great guide, thanks for the info

First 2 weeks it says to stick to 500/2000, gl lulu

Don't give up welshmamma, I had a week where I stayed the same everyday, and then it started coming off again, stupid totm, just extra frustrating when you are close to the 10's, u will get there

You can have up to 2000 on an up day! I find am always really hungry after a down day so eat plenty to get thru the next down day, u need the swing between both days to get your metabolism going, good luck

You can do it, just think of all the new clothes you can buy for your hols!!!

Hope u feel better soon!!

First 2 weeks u should do 500 dd and 2000 up and then adjust if u need too

Only thing that gets me thru is imagining what I am gonna eat in the morning!!! And then I wake up NOT hungry and I don't enjoy my brekkers, what that all about lol x

Ladybird!! That's amazing!! That's nearly 1 stone

Sounds a bit like JUDDD in the other diet section

U need the swing of alternate days to lose, otherwise you'll go into starvation mode and won't lose

Shepherds pie, swapped mince for extra lean, added carrots to the mash to make it healthier and bulk it up a bit, low fat cheese, hubby said it was just as tasty as my old unhealthy version lol

I did the red only diet and found myself stuck as I didn't want a massive gain when I ate carbs, but it didn't quite agree with my tum, small amounts of carbs with a healthy load of vegetables will balance it out like half plate veg, quarter carb/protein, good luck

Hi, when I saw her in the redish dress in the mail I read that she was 10'2 and thought she looked great and started getting all my old ww books out, read it again and she says she's 9'4!! I think I could realistically get to 10 but not 9, but I started the diet anyway

Packet sugar free lemon jelly Grated zest and juice of a lemon 200g very low fat frontage frais 2 egg whites beaten to soft peaks Dissolve jelly in 200 ml boiling water, add lemon juice and zest and allow to cool Blend well with fromage frais and put in fridge to set When it's the consistency...

I have tried them all too only seem to work for a couple of weeks and stop, hoping I have better luck in this one as it worked last time, good luck

Ty December!! Good luck to you too, forums are a little bit busier today, it's been dead

Do u mean blue wkd that's 184 cals, couldn't find blue taboo

Same thing, 123, discover and pure points are basically the same

Happy new year. I think the old points is a really good diet and have lost 3 lb in the first week, have tried slimfast, slimming world and calorie counting and tend to just yoyo with my weight, this one just works I think, I got all the old stuff from eBay for £2.43 haha

I think 1.5 stones = 1 dress size

I am back to ww, at slimming world they say eat as much as u like, which I did and it never worked for me and ended up gaining, some ppl have great results tho, I know if I follow ww I will lose, lost 28 lbs last time and have tried calorie counting and slim fast which are good until u stop lol...

Hi all, hope everyone had a good Christmas, can I rejoin ww meeting but doing old point system, can't get my head around the pro points and old points worked for me b4

One day off won't make to much of A difference, you've done so well so far , hope u have a lovely Christmas <3

I tried the lasagne and found it verystringy and difficult to eat, because of all the leeks, perhaps bc I put 3 layers lol , maybe they only used one layer?? Also used extra lean mince to maker en lower in cals

45g = 269 cals , why is it so high?? Is it really fattening or fake bc everything seems good for you ? Ty for your reply

20 cals = 1 syn :)

Join slimming world you will get the support of others who will help you and advise you how to lose it and keep u on track, it's ok saying do it yourself but not everyone knows how too?

Muller Greek fat free yog are 1/2 syn per pot and just as nice

1/2 price in tesco £1.09 but sold out in Rochdale because I bought them all haha the peach ones are gorgeous

Mine would be, don't rely on ppl on here to give you the correct syns when u can use the calculator, was told on here about something being syn free and it wasn't, didn't lose weight that week because if it lol

Fat free natural is free

See a lot of threads saying this is free, it's not, it's 5 1/2 a tub, just thought ppl should know :)
