Thank you both :) Day 8 and still doing ok, Im just trying to make sure after such a good loss last week that I dont start to expect too much and get frustrated when I lose less, I need to remember that between 1.5lb and 2lb a week is my target.

Im doing it without a group :) plus you've got a whole group of people here!

I lost 4 stone before falling off the wagon, kept trying to go back and failing, giving it another go this time by calorie counting and exercise, I got a bike which I use while im watching telly, do between 60 - 80mins a day on it, but Ive been calculating calories burnt and the less you weigh...

Blimey that calculator thing says I should be 16 250ml glasses of water a day... 16! I would be weeing like a racehorse!

Day 7 now and still going well. The only thing Im having trouble with, is eating enough calories, Im finding myself being 200 to 300 calories short quite often and having to go through the cupboards to try and find something to eat, even thought im not hungry to make up the calories... not sure...

oh tell me about it... I over heard the lad ive been kinda seeings friends ask him who the fat blonde bird he was with was... I felt such an idiot... thats probably part of what kick started me into coming back on the diet, not for them but for me so I dont ever have to be made to feel that way...

my drive is the shock on peoples faces when they see me after not seeing me for a while, where I lost the first 4 stone so fast and due to the type of diet I was on I shyed away from going out etc, a lot of my friends didnt see me for a few months at a time and we arranged a big xmas do, for...

you're doing great! makes my 2 and a half miles a day look a bit pathetic haha but im hoping the 20miles on the bike make up for it :) Ive got dodgy knee so I end up like forest gump if I walk too far, hoping the walking and bike will strengthen my knee so I can walk more and more though. Gook...

you look fantastic, great post, well done!

When I started to diet I had 6 and a half stone to lose... never thought I would lose anything... managed to lose 4stone in 5 months in 2010... then came off the diet for xmas (stupid me...) never came back... well until last week anyway! Back on it now and trying to stay focused on healthy...

Well done :) I somehow managed 7lbs this week too, not really sure how, was only expected half of that but still very pleased!

Thank you :)

Thank you both :) Im eating between 1300 and 1500 as I read if you vary it on a daily bases it stops your body from getting stuck in a rut, i guess if you think about it, if you werent watching what you ate, you would never eat exactly the same number of cals each day normally... so makes sence...

Not really sure how I've done it... guessing its just because its the first week but I've lost 7lbs this week :) Auburn - 6lbs : 1lbs lost, 5lbs to go AuntieLush - 8lbs : 0lbs lost 8lbs to go Betterforever - 10lbs : 4.5lbs lost 5.5lbs to go Boleyna - 10lbs : 0lbs lost 10lbs to go...

Thanks shanny, yeah counting calories and moving a lot more! Only started on tuesday but want to weigh in on a Sunday so weighed today and already lost 7lbs! Im amazed! I know im not going to lose what much every week but 7lbs is a great kick start and proved to me that I can lose weight...

I think you have to address your biggest problems with food, when I was 16 stone I just felt so out of control, kept doing diets which didnt work... because I didnt stick to them but lied to myself and said I did lol... so I did a diet which took total control of what I ate... I did food...

I only started my diet and fitness plan on the 1st... so I shouldnt be weighing in until tuesday but wanted to weigh in on a sunday in future so weighed early... was expected 2lbs, hoping for 3lbs and the scales show a 7lb loss in only 5 days! Now people might think I must be doing some brutal...

Im only 5ft4 but when I was 16 stone I was a size 20, at 12 stone I was a comfy size 16 and some 16's were getting a bit big. A lot of people say a stone lost in weight means down a dress size, but I found it more like stone and a half to go down a dress size, but hopefully now I have less to...

You can do this! This time 2 years ago I was 16 stone and felt I would never be able to lose weight, I lost 4 stone in 5 months and then fell off the wagon... :( just coming back now to lose the 7lbs Ive gained and the rest of it. To start with I did part and then total food replacement... at...

Today is day 4 of the diet, so far so good. I am denying myself things and taking healthier options but Im not feeling hungry. I got a new set of kitchen scales and my god I had no idea how much I was actually eating... I would read of the side of packages how many cals and fat per serving and...

I lost 56lbs in 5 months in 2010, went from 16 stone to 12 stone but stupidly took a break for christmas and never went back to the diet so my weight has crept back up to 12 stone 7lbs. But what I would say is losing that kinda weight in that time, is VERY hard, becareful not to set yourself...

No I didnt doing any exercise when I was on TFR which is why I want to lose weight in a way which will help me change my whole life style so I can keep the weight off in future. Im keeping a strict food and exercise diary so I can monitor the effects it has on my weight loss, I read a article...

I was the token fat bridesmaid for my sisters wedding... I so wish I had managed to stick to the diet for it, as I cant avoid the pictures even 4 years on lol, I lost 4 stone on TRF and Part food replacement, went from 16 stone to 12 stone in 5 months so know how hard it is but you can do it...

I guess its hard to go from living on 600 cals a day on total food replacement to feeling that Im going to lose anything eating over double that. I think I'll continue doing my food and excerise diary and monitor that and listen to my body, try and stick to the 1500 calories a day side of it...

Well I am having a lot of fruit, veg and salad, between 1200 - 1500 cals a day but I am burning around 1000 cals a day with exercise. Im far from a fitness freak, but Ive only ever lost weight by doing very strict diets, total food replacement etc, I went from 16 stone to 12 stone in 5 months...

I know people talk about your body going into starvation mode if you dont eat enough, but can the same be said if you eat a decent amount of calories but a lot of exercise (around 2 hours a day) does the same apply?

I started on the 1st of May but am going to weigh in every Monday. Auburn - 6lbs : 0lbs lost, 6lbs to go AuntieLush - 8lbs : 0lbs lost 8lbs to go Betterforever - 10lbs : 4.5lbs lost 5.5lbs to go Boleyna - 10lbs : 0lbs lost 10lbs to go Jensonbuttongirl - 4lbs: 0lbs 4lbs to go Jeshiekah - 8lbs ...
