Thanks all, I have now turned to weight watchers due to finance and feeling guilty about not eating with the children and lost 3lbs from last week. I know the weight loss will be less speedy but the unreliable results on CD wasn't worth it for me. Thanksfor your support and good luck with...

Thanks Becky! After I posted that I hunted online and found a calculator to work it out so 6 points for the bread and 5 points for the beans and meatballs. Thanks again

Hi all I am new to WW I started today and started working out breakfast and lunch. I am struggling to work out how many points my lunch was worth. How on earth do I work this out? I expected the literature provided by WW to inform me of how many points are etc.. So I am now thinking what do...

Thank you I have had 10 days off the plan and stayed the same. Now back on track and focussed, now walking 4 miles 3 times a week and it is helping me loose weight and inches.

Thanks for replying that is a better way to lok at it I guess!! :-)

Hi all What is a realistic weight loss? Some weeks I lose 5lbs and others only a 1lb? Overall in a month I have lost 16lb's I expected more or am I being unrealistic? I am now 28lbs away from my target, just wish I would get there faster. :confused: Hope everyone is having a good day, now I am...

I had 2 periods in 4 weeks, my doctor said it was adjusting to the diet and so first week on TOTM i lost 7lbs, following week 3 then a 1lb (I cheated and lost the plot on TOTM felt like a woman possessed) then this week lost 5lb. Drinking 4 litres of water a day is relly helping me feel good and...

Good luck Zoe, I spend a lot or time reading about what works for people, overcomng temptation and reaching goals! It has helped me stay focused and regain focus when I cheated :( but now back on it I am trying to lose 4 stone in 12 weeks to so far nearly 4 weeks in and I have lost 16lbs. Also...

An amazing thread!! There is never a good time to start ther is always some social event or holiday looming. It is tricky at first but after 3 weeks you won't look back and have a grin on your face and feel lighter and brighter! I have a lot more energy than I used to have already and only...

Well got weighed today and lost 5lb since last Thursday as CDC going on holiday tomorrow for 9 days. So now 9 days of being good, let's hope so as I wanted to be under 12 stone by my sisters wedding on sept 8th 9lbs to go for the target. I am now getting to the point I forget to have shakes is...

No she never mentioned it, at home I use a magic bullet which I bought off QVC it's amazing. Will try lakelane limited tomorrow, failing that I will have to seek one out. Thanks for the info and my binge week I lost 1lb, now think I am back in ketosis as my hubby says my metallic breath back...

I hate to burst the bubble, but it made me ravenous like a junkie hunting out food, I thnk you have to see if it affects you or not. Hoping not and good luck with your journey.

I will ask CDC tomorrow, I can't do the carton's as I'm allergic to milk. Battery powered whisk is a fab idea as I tried to shake it myself and it was a disaster it made me gag. Thanks for the info!

Bars?? I have no knowledge of bars on SS? just shakes?! I am missing a trick!!

Thanks for all the positive comments, I am on mission get a grip and get focused! Will let you know how i get on weigh in day tomorrow...

So I am a cheat, a big fat cheat ; so annoyed with myself. It all stems from a glass of Coca Cola Zero, a slice of cake her, 5 rich tea biscuits there, some roast potatoes and gravy and the worst thing is they didn't taste that good!!! So annoyed at myself and also TOTM again 2nd time in a...

This was a joy to read!! I feel like a complete loser and lost it this week on week 3 for me too.. I have eaten 5 rich tea biscuits, a mcdonalds hamburger and some roast potatoes and a slice of sponge cake all this over 4 days when we have been out n about as hubby is off work on holiday but...

The more you drink the more you shrink, scientific fact rgeardless of what diet you are on. I drink a minimum of 3 litres but aim for 4 litres a day. It really helps and makes you feel fab!

HI Lumpybumpy I am thinking of doing what you have done, but I am interested to know did you not follow SS when you were on holiday? Assume that is the case but wanted to be sure. You are my inspiration!

Great thanks for the info. I had them in the freezer when i was SW ok will try quorn pieces with spices! :) Thanks lumpybumpy x

Thanks Kerry, I guess it's a case of trial and error will let you know what I do and see if it affects it? Do you do any exercise as well? As thinking of starting 10 minute dvd's!

Thanks for the information, hat is CD flavour my CDC never mentioned these?

I just asked the same question,... how funny! I think one can or two won't harm us?! I thought to have one tonight and one on a saturday? but still drink my 3 litres of water.good luck!

Hi all I am after some advice... With regards to quorn has anyone tried eating quorn burgers or quorn sausages instead of quorn mince pieces. I thought as long as the calorie and gram intake is the same or under it should be ok? But I could be way off? I ask this as having my folks to stay...

Hi all After your help as ever! As I don't drink tea or coffee (allergy to milk and don't liek it black) I am just drinking water which is getting tedious when it gets to the evening and need a caffeine boost! I wondered if anyone had tried using coca cola zero in their diet and and if it...

That is amazing I have now got my hubby measuring me now, so ill see what next week brings!! I need any motivation I can get! :)

P.S thanks for the PMA to my 8lbs! I am chuffed but I felt a bit down when I read some people have lost 10lbs! Let's see what this week's brings. I have uped my water intake to 4 litres and feel so much better for it! Have a good weekend everyone and let's hope the sun shines!

I think you mis read my posting or the way that I worded it (cheating was me eating half a beef patty not using diurectics) On the upside bloated feeling has gone, think 8 days in my body is getting used to the new regime and I slept easily! I have never dranktea or coffee due to a milk allergy...

hope you are feeling better. I have asked you some questions on this thread sorry for double posts trying to get used to this site. thanks so much

Thanks for the information about me cheating and using diurectics, message received stay clear of them. How long does it take for the bloated feeling to disappear? Also I am so tired today, as not been sleeping well for the past 4 nights, is this a side effect? It takes me ages to fall aslee, I...

Thanks lumpyandbumpy - 8st is amazing! I have lost 8lbs in my first week with TOTM is that good or bad? Shazzy-shaz - thanks for the encouraging words unfortunately today I caved having kids to stay and and ate half a beef patty from a mcdonalds hamburger no bread or sauce or onions just meat...

Thank you so much for the fast response and inside info! So fingers crossed for a better loss next week!! 3 stone loss is amazing!! I am still thinking about bread, chips and cake evert day :( but crave meat?!

Hi there Sorry to cause any offence, however I have a personal question... I assume TOTM means time of the month, does this affect your weight loss?:confused: As I started CD this week which falls within TOTM, now on day 6 and thought I would have lost more. Thanks again :)

You look amazing and I bet you feel it too!! Well done and keep going you are an inspiration to us all!! :)

Thank you Happynic and txljay will keep on the water and just found some shakes shocking choc and mint was horrible but choc and orange is fab just like Terry's choclate orange yummy! I will persevere! Thanks again for the information I am really grateful!! :)

Great to have a holiday in mind!! And a great steady loss but sorry to hear about your toe and foot! I am giving it my all to shift the pounds and the stones! Also did you go to bed early in the beginning? How did you cope when people ask you for a night out etc.. I need a strategy! Did you ever...

Drink, drink and drink water! I bought an evian water bottle and trying to drink 4 of them which equates to 3 litres of water but I go to the loo a lot and I am taking paracetomol to help with hunger pains and it works! I have no bad breathe yet,...still waiting!

Great thanks for the info again, it really helps!! I wish when I started they said I might and that I could eat laxatives! 8-lbs lost is phenomonal!! Well done you! What are your goals when you have lost the weight? Did it come off steady or fast and slow? Am I realistic thinking I could lose 25...

hi I just went to buy the sticks and they were going to cost me £35 which I thought was a lot? Please can you let me know how much you paid and what make? So i can hunt for them thank you!! 10 and i/2 pounds in 2 weeks is fantastic, do you really not feel hungry? Do you have a lot to lose?

Thank you for the info txljay, keeping on the water and the shakes and soups. Just weighed myself and only 2lbs gone :( but only on day 3 so we'll have to wait and see. Unfortunately patience isn't one of my strong points. Also think I am constipated can you take lazatives to get things moving?

Thank you Happynic! Will go and make myself a black tea as just drinking water alone is beginning to bore me. and make me think about food. Thank you so much for your information. I have 3 and half stone to lose and it's my sister's wedding on September 8th so I don't want to be the fat sister...

Hello all, I have started the CD due to desperation and wanting to lose weight for health, and vanity reasons. I stated yesterday and that was ok I had a headache and was in bed by 9pm and woke up at 8am and woke up with energy. Today however, has been a lot harder and as a stay at home mum I...
