good luck hun, I originally started at 13.11 and am 5ft 6 and got down to 11 stone I have put on 1.5 stone since having my son so just need to shift the excess. If you can stick to it, it will fall off in no time. I find keeping a diary on here and looking at pictures and you tube videos of...

I didn't get one this time either last time I kept it.... how did you manage yday on the end? X

Day 3 went well! Surprisingly! I don't work Wednesdays I spend them at home with my son We usually meet up with some friends and have a day out. Yesterday we went shopping and for a nice walk to the park. Also my FIL is staying so cooked them pulled pork, potatoes and made some coleslaw -...

I would love to join in with the challenge I started CD yesterday so will keep me motivated. Just read through the diary you are all doing fantastically well. Good to have support to stay on track. Been watching those youtube video's ....so bloody amazing! Lily I am also starting after...

oh really its sunny here, glad the headache is gone! Have a good day 2!

Thanks Pamela :) You are doing so well though - 4 weeks is a long time. I know this diet is hard but am at my wits end and really need to lose the weight quickly so I dont give in as I owuld do on slimming world/WW. I feel like a whale! Its nice to have people to chat to in the same position...

Well done Hun cooking and sitting down with the family must be hard. I'm doing sole source plus so am having some fish and asparagus now sooooo looking forward to it :-) good luck for day 2

not very long actually, I started when I got back from holiday at the end of October and was pretty much at goal by Christmas and then kept it off for 2 years so I know when I get there I can keep it off. I found sticking to no carbs mon-fri or adding a sweet potato/cous cous a big help as...

Hi Beth How are you finding it? I started again today and would like to lose 2-2.5 stone. I'm dreading having to cook for my son but going to do it in batches and freeze it - good job he is at nursery a few days as it must be so hard to serve an apple crumble without a spoonful! Well done you!

wow sophiesophs I have just restarted today after funnily enough having my son!! They are so worth it though. I did cd 3-4 years ago and kept it off until pregnancy! You have done AMAZINGLY well. Have you any tips on how you coped making meals and stuff for the kids thats what I am most...

Hi all I am a CD restarter, I lost over 2 stone on CD 3 years ago and managed to keep it off until I got pregnant with my son. I have since then been very sporadic with my gym and now back at work time just melts away and convenience eating and lack of motivation has let me put weight back on...

Not keen on the mushroom pasta ...tooo runny!

Forgot to weigh this morning grrrrrr! Will have to do tomorrow now. I ordered more products not keen on the curry but hvae just had the oatmeal - love it! Wasnt as keen on the sweet porridge and have the mushroom pasta for lunch so will give that a go :)

Omk thanks hun I have my next weigh in tomorrow how about you? x

disaster last night forgot my dinner and the only thing in the salon wasbread i only had two products so was lightheaded and had 1/2 slice of dry bread and a tea! annoying that I caved by couldnt face the tube journey home (1hr) so dizzy. never mind. Just chilli for lunch with some veg and...

I didnt have it in the end I had a coke zero! I went to wedding flower appointment last night and we didnt eat so I ended up with a slice of cheese and some beetroot for dinner lol didnt want to start cooking at 10.45! How are you getting on hun? I need to break into the 10 stone bracket but...

feeling so hungry today - I have had 1/2 a bar a shake and chilli i dont know what to do :( I have an appointment after work and wont be home until late and worried the person I am meeting may want to eat out so dont want to have anything else. I was thinking a coke zero and a piece of fruit...

Idi my weigh yesterday and lost 6lbs woop woop! I was hoping for 7 but had a slip on sunday so happy with that. Fingers crossed next week in the 10's!

I would be more inclined to do light cardio work rather than worrying about toning too much as I find for me if I do more toning type exercises I build muscle very easily which is what stalls the weightloss. Swimming is always good as you burn and tone, other than that aerobics or Zumba and...

yeah wouldnt worry I tried a coat on in there last week the coat fitted in the size 12 but the belt that came with the coat didnt do up! Weird sizes for sure. Keep going hun you are doing fab :)

Go for it, it makes u feel good! I've been going to the gym 4 days per week for the last year I've always done lots of exercise as I used to swim competitively but when I piled on the weight and started cd I upped my training with boxing an spinning not just swimming etc. Just found it hard...

It was a bit of a shock I was on holiday for 10 days so only did a bit of running then came back and caught a bug so first week of training really as holiday was only 30 mins run every other day! Yeah will prob have some protein before hand. Spinning tomorrow :)

Think I'd of felt it tonight anyway as its my first session back in 3 weeks. I had an extra egg at dinner and my bar an hour before. If I feel it tomorrow I may add something else but don't know what x

Bloody hell first boxing session since I've been on s&s went dizzy big time. Poached eggs an salad for dinner could of killed for a glass of squash after my workout lol!

YUMMY - Spag bol with mushrooms my fave so far! Not sure about the strawberry shake this morning not the best but not undrinkable. So far so good today. I have boxing tonight too havent been for 2 weeks as been on holiday and ill cant wait :)

Weekend - not great I just cant stick to it 100% at weekends I always do this! Well Saturday took the car to the Garage and needed brake pads etc etc so ended up waiting around for it......so had to wait in the cafe as there was nowhere else I had Tea and then eggs and salmon (I didnt eat the...

what have you got planned anything exciting?

Hi slimming-girl I did CD before this and I can honestly say (I am on Day 4) that I 100% prefer S&S. The shakes taste nice and do not appear to have the after taste of CD and the consistency is better. I tend to add more water than they say as the choc one is quite rich. The meals give more...

I think I will go downstairs at lunch as my work has quite a good selection of veg and a big salad bar with Green beans and broccoli so will see what is left. I really hope so. I am just worrying about falling off at the weekend. I think I may go spinning tonight and suggested shopping at...

Happy friday :) I started at 13 stone 11 as well at the end of october last year, I felt awful about myself my face was fat and gross and I just felt unattractive and insecure about myself. By Christmas I was down to 11 stone 4lbs which is near enough where I have stayed since then. I felt I...

Depends on the person, I think around 3 or 4 days for me. I usually suffer from headaches on the 3rd day - just keep drinking and push through x

Thanks ladies I'm hoping so too. I am on the train now to work and a little hungry I have a strawberry shake in my bag and cottage pie for lunch with some veg :) hoping I like them! I am trying to keep tally of things I prefer to put my order in next week. The scales show a 3 or 4lb loss so far...

Bless! How funny off out with your box of mushrooms :) you did so well to resist. Do you think you will be motivated over the weekend? That is when I am likely to wobble! I just spoke to her and she postponed her appointment today and is going to have a read through of the info I sent her for...

She is open to trying but she is very insecure person and lacks confidence. Some of her weight is due to PCOS and the other I suppose bad choices but she doesnt eat loads I think again as she is only about 5ft 2 they weight shows so much more as well. I think it would work taking food choice...

Thanks girls :) I just had a banana shake it was so lovely I can actually say I enjoyed that. I cant believe the shakes are so much nicer than CD. I met with a friend last night who has always struggled with her weight and she told me she is having appointments re surgery. I am trying to...

Day 2 I think I prob had more salad than the 200g but went to nandos and managed to eat on plan so all good! Day 3 today hoping for another good day to keep me in the zone. I

Hi Katie, I am a restarter too! Its hard getting back on the bandwagon! I did CD from last October to just beofre xmas and lost 2.7 stone and have put a tiny bit back on since my holiday last week. I have managed to maintain with exercise and better eating choices since December but didnt...

I have managed to keep off 2 stone 4lbs for the last 9 months and I know I have to watch what I eat and keep up exercise 4-5 times per week inorder to maintain. Just hoping i dont do 2 weeks on this and then get bored and lazy and start cheating. The quicker this weight comes off the better.

Thanks Tigerlily, i hope i dont mess around with this and drag it out, I just want to get to goal and then carry on with my exercise and healthy eating. Just made the mac cheese and added cauliflower - its quite runny on its own but not unpleasant. Just added in 100g of cauli and its made the...

its so weird how peoples sizes differ. I know my weight seems high for how I look but i do lots of boxing and spinning so guess some of it is muscle. I would love to be a comfy 10! We will get there :)

I was just wondering as I am around the same height as you and just have no idea where I want to be! I started in a tight size 14 at 13 stone 10 last october and have been at around 11st to 11st 5 since last christmas. I know I dont want to be more than 10st 7 and I am currently wearing a size...

I had a terrible bug last week was nauseous and sick from last tuesday and didnt feel right until Tuesday so didnt actually start s&s until yesterday. Hopefully you have shaken off your bug now? How long have you been on s&s and how are yo finding it? So far after a long break off of CD I am...

Just had omelette and mushrooms! Just having a cup of tea and bed wooooo! Day 1 - 100% Weekend will be hard that's when I have little cheats!

Just had the chilli with some green beans and some extra chilli flakes......not bad at all :)

Thanks Derika, 10lbs in the first week is amazing! I am so jealous! I am not expecting 10lbs but I lost 8lbs on cambridge in my very first week so will be happy with anything between 5 and 7 this week and hopefully anything between 2 and 4 subsequent weeks! Long term I will cut the carbs out...

Thanks Rhi! I didnt order the almond I dont like them anyway so I just ordered the 3 choc ones. I have chilli for lunch hoping it is nice! I have heard about the cottage pie looking dodgy! May try it tomorrow! I am going to the gym tonight so will weigh in there and then do the same next...

Thanks all! I started today as I ended up with a terrible tummy bug last week so haven't eaten much and the only things I could stomach were carbs! I have had a praline bar for breakfast and it was really nice I was surprised as the Cambridge bars taste more like chemicals than the S&S one. I...

thanks i will no doubt be keeping in touch as of next week. Good luck to all from me until then! Cant wait for monday now :)

Thanks girls. I think I will wait until monday but I am so eager to try all the products! How did you find the products compared with Cambridge Derika? Are the losses about the same? I lose between 6 and 8lbs in the first week then between 2 and 4lbs after that so hoping it wont take more...

Hi Everyone I have previously lost weight of Cambridge and am looking to shift the last bit on S&S. The variety looks good and the ready meals appeal to me for lunch at work to have something warm. I have just placed by first 2 week order and will see how I go. I got back from Cyprus...

Thanks Lorraine :) I will be starting next monday I am hoping to be at goal in 4 weeks time, i need to stay focused. Good luck (not that you ladies seem to need it)

hi all! I am thinking about making my first order from slim and save and have come on here for a bit of advice before i buy my first 2 weeks worth. I have been on the cambridge diet and am a little confused with the ready meals. I did the three packs on Cambridge which consisted of shakes...

Christy that's so sad you must have had such a hard time at such a young age. You are so brave. You are losing weight for so many good reasons. You sound like an amazing mum and losing weight for your little boy is such a good reason. My mum worked long hours since I was 6 weeks old and we...

Excellent well done hun! That must feel good to have a break and not undo your good work! I had a slightly off plan weekend lol. I have weighed myself and think I have lost 2.5lbs but meant to be getting weighed tonight. Hopefully can get there and to the gym the car decided to not start...

Good for you Christy! The computer systems are broken at work so I have been looking on the internet at peoples heights and weight to get a general size of what I could be at 10.5 stone! Its so weird how everyone differs so much. I am currently in a 12 at 11 stone 1lb whilst other people seem...

Thanks Hun! That's good that you enjoyed it u can get stuck in! I'm Not overly worried about the scales as I'm doing so much exercise so I know it's showing in myself even if it's not on the scales! My CDC thought I looked a lot smaller and toned so in happy enough x

Well done nic, I used to go ff they have good spin classes! I went to weigh and it was out of order! I'll have to just wait until next week when fingers crossed will be in the 10's!

Just a bit annoying as I rely on her scales! Think I may weigh myself tomorrow on the gym scales and see what they say and do the same next Sunday and keep the print outs!

Got weighed and lost 3lbs! I think! The cdcs scales changed 3 times from 11st 2 to 11 st do went with 11 2! No idea lol :)

Hi Karrinnae Godd luck dont be disheartened I used to dislike the shakes unless they went in my smoothie maker with Ice. I have just bought a smal blender for work and it has changed my opinion ....No lumps as they make me heave! I always lose more on the shakes and soups than weeks on the...

well done Nic. I have never had a problem with it knocking me out of Ketosis but I think lots of people find it makes them hungry or will encourage them to be more relaxed. My CDC has never said I cant have it but to be honest if it stops me craving or eating I'll have a can as a treat lol!x
