Bought my packs. I'm having an Olympics party on the 4th August so wish to start after that. I don't want to mess up so would rather lose the weight properly. Don't have any other parties after so nice few weeks of nothing will suit me good

You are doing good. I didn't know you could have eggs, where have I been! Thankx rebeka, I love them so think this diet is going to be easier to sick to.

The scales do seem to be going in the right direction! Good good.

I like how you work on days not weeks. I was a week one, week two type of person. When I start I will log in daily

That's pretty good going. 9 inches so far is very good indeed.

TOM is worse thing but think about next weeks weight loss. You are lucky your partner is giving you back rubs. Milk it, I would.

Tomato chilli is rank! Original ones good though. Seems you are doing so well. All the zero drinks are a life saver for me. I loved sprite zero but stopped when I realised it contained citric acid. I wrongly assumed all zero drinks were citric acid free

Yes, you can buy them online. Look at VLCD - Very Low Calorie Diet - Slim & Save are the Number One VLCD Supplier in the UK the products are really nice. I've tried slim and save, Exante, lighterlife and Cambridge as samples! Only ones I've really enjoyed we're slim and save. You can purchase...

Heart palpitations and struggling to find something to wear

That's scary that some people think its ok to do DIY vlcds

Spoke to a friend of a friend who did slim and save and lost a tonne of weight. Feeling better about starting as soon as possible.

I second that. It really is.

Oh no :(

I just ended up typing a post for my diary on someone elses diary but just learnt the art of editing posts. Minimins is hard and I thought I was a good with technology. Oh well, I'm sure I will be fine once I get to 100 posts!

Oh dear, still learning to use minimins , I'm don't know how I'm posting! Sorry! Hope you are ok anyways

That seems like a lot of towels to use per day. Nhs direct might be the way

They're quite nice

Thanks, I need all the luck I can get!

Thank you ;)

My sister only used stevia in her coffee (3 to 4 times a day) while she was on her vlcd and managed to lose just under 6 stones in 7 months

I like the sound of chocolate mini milks but il probably make them with the crispy choc pack as I'm not so keen on the normal choc one

Baby oil tends to help me too. I also use elemis Japanese camellia oil which is a bit pricey but lush

I'm so doing the radiator dips and finding shaky shaky near me. Hehe! Good luck

Just read your diary! Wow, you are so determined. I'm so here to follow. I think I need to swallow all my excuses after reading some of the stuff you've been dealing with. Keep at it girl :)

Hey, hope you are ok... Haven't seen any updates from u girl x

Right, I'm back again... It's been a few months and I just kind of gave up on everything. It's so sad. I've had some issues (excuses excuses, I know) and am hoping to get back on track soon. I will be purchasing some new packs next week but meanwhile I will be stalking everyone's diaries. If...

Well done on your brilliant loss and sorry to hear about ur neighbour issues

Hi, it's been a few weeks. Didn't go so well so wiping the slate clean and starting again from tomorrow! Hope you are doing well xx :) :)

Good to see u looking at the positives of having tummy flu!! Hehe! :D Enjoy the BBQ

I've just been reading your diary. Slim&save is a tough diet but it's got to be worth it. I've had a tough few weeks and totally went off plan. I was too embarrassed to post but I decided to do it today. I'm back on the diet from tomorrow as il be home alone and able to focus. I have realised...

:( I'm so embarrassed to say that I failed. I just ate a whole load of foods and feel so bad. I feel so embarrassed but needed to come and tell you all :( I'm going to try again from tomorrow Monday 14th May. I'll type out what I will be having so that I don't need to choose tomorrow...

Now THAT is appealing. Must try :D http://www.minimins.com/slim-save-diaries/273558-amber-slim-save-diary.html

I've just downloaded the minimins app for my iPad. Have a sneaky suspicion that il be on this fab forum for hours a day. Teehee

Week 1 loss is brill. My friend lost over a stone in her first week, STS 2nd week, gained a pound 3rd week (TOTM) and lost a huge amount 4th week all while sticking to the food plan so do not be disheartened as it will all even out. xx

PS, good luck on your journey:) Here's a link to my SnS diary. I will be putting any running/jogging race tips on there: http://www.minimins.com/slim-save-diaries/273558-amber-slim-save-diary.html

Good on ya for doing a 10k. I'm doing a 5k in July and sooo nervous but sooo excited too. I'm walking for about 20mins a few times a week and doing my toning every day to help my bones. I'm going to slowly move up to walking an hour each time and then a light jog by end of June (hopefully!). Any...

Oh dear, no worries now. Just move forward - onwards and DOWNwards (as in what your scales should be showing) xx

Love your posts, have a great weekend

Such a great loss fellow newbie! I'm hoping for a 3lb loss if that as I'm drinking milk and eating veg but 11lb is mega! Excited for your next weigh in :):)

Brilliant thread. You WL has been amazing. A very well done to you hun. Gosh, only day 1 for me. :eek: http://www.minimins.com/slim-save-diaries/273558-amber-slim-save-diary.html

Ahh bless, lesson learnt for me too. I'm on day 1 so I can imagine temptation taking over especially this week so when it does I will re-read your post and many other too. That should make me stop!! You've had a great weight loss too, well done x

Ok. I've had 4 packs today. I have had a handful of savoy cabbage steamed as my veg portion. I've also had 200 ml semi skimmed milk (used a little to make the porridge). For breakfast I had sweet porridge (the new one I believe) which I liked a lot. I've tried many of my friends packs from when...

Thank you :) I hope so! I'll let you all know in a week! Haha!

Thank you. I think this forum and all you lovely people on it will really help me

Thank you! I'm going to use a big 2 litre for daytime and a litre bottle for the evening. Good tips ladies :) xx

Hiya, good luck with your restart. We sometimes don;t realise how much food can control us. I've been there so now I've decided to do it the SnS way! I am finding it tough but once I'm in ketosis I'll be ok. Keeping my fingers crossed. I have started my diary today...

I've been reading your diary and it's so moving. You seem to have gone through a lot. I sincerely wish you all the best with your diet :) I started mine today and it's been tough so far. I'm so hungry but hopefully the hunger will pass :sigh: I'm doing 4 packs per day and a little veg and milk...

Seems like you've had a fab day! How do you manage your water intake? Any tips would be so helpful as I know I'll struggle with that. I do like water but just don't know how I'll manage to drink 3 litres :confused: I've got my ketostix too. Cant wait to see red! Lol

Thank you :) it's so inspiring seeing peoples posts on here and I will try my hardest to do this diet as I really want this. Can't wait to read about your next weight loss!

Thought I'd share some of my goals on here: - Get into size 12 jeans comfortably (by end of May), then size 10 jeans (by end of June) and finally size 8 jeans by the end of July - Do 10 minutes of resitance exercises per day using my band and weights - Walk at least 20 minutes briskly, 3 times...

Wow, that is just what I needed to read to stop me from cheating. Amazing weight loss, well done you! :)

Hi everyone! Seems like a lovely site with lovely people here. Thought I'd say hello. This is my first proper diet. I've lost a few pouns using calorie control but this is an extreme version but I need to go down 2 stone. I'm currently 10st 10lb and to many that may not be too overweight but...
