I'm obsessed really and weigh myself every day or at the very least every other. If i'm being bad I will avoid for a few days, until I realise enough is enough and climb back on!!! I need to do it to keep on track really but each to their own, my sister in law barely weighs in but has kept...

the best time to start is when you realise enough is enough and your head is in the right place... good luck to you all and if you need support I'm here also xx

Hi Abz How you feeling now? on the subject of teeth i had mine 'done' and the work was fininshed about 12 months ago. I didnt have fixed braces in the end, i had the removable ones, my teeth were well wonky so he took 2 out on the top and used a spacer brace to seperate my teeth a bit...

Evening ladies...! How you all doing? I'm doing really well at the minute have stuck to CD quite well, couldn't be bothered starting WW or SW this side of my holiday and have finally had my whoosh loss i think (5 pounds lighter on my scales) my totm was 3 weeks late and I have been retaining...

Hey JK Sounds like you've had a really rough time of it xx I went up to 1500 and have weened myself off the diet but to be honest I've been feeling pretty rubbish in myself since i've come off which is probably due to lacking in minerals etc. How are you feeling now? Lynn x

I love it!!! went to a conference last week and one of my area managers asked where the rest of me was luvvin it luvvvin it luvvvvvvvvvvvvin it!! haha

Hi All Thaks for the welcome!! Will be finding a group next week to join and see how it goes! xx

Hi Ladies Apologies for the quietness over the past 2 weeks or so have been mega busy at work! I've reached a decision and have decided that tomorrow is going to be my final weigh in on CD.... I've pretty much come to the end of my weight loss journey and have lost just over 2 and a half...

Hello I've doen weight watchers in the past and am thinking of re starting, i am currently on the cambridge diet and have been so since the beginning of June. I've had amazing results and have lost 2 and a half stone and feel amazing!! i need to shift the last stone and have hit a bit of a...

Well done!!! xxxx

i joined photobuket, uploadthem on there then copy the link over, really easy takes about 5 mins max

hello i'm not a cdc but i found that bu going up a step stopped me binging... i'm now on 1200 and apart from the odd haribo and curve ball i'm ok!

No its def a oh.my.god.amazing!! is that the same person bloody hell!

Team 1 leahs lightweight are a bit light on members i think, we have some missing in action, contact our leader kitteh

Am here Stayed the same this week sorry!! but have moved onto 1200 so wan't expecting a big loss as my body adjusts

Bloody hell!!!!!!!

Aaahh thanks beverley!! I havent really looked past page 21! they are 157 cal each so think it should be ok,

Me too... although totm is delayed by a week eek

Evening you lovely people I have a question...... on the 1200 plan for lunch on the option 2 you can have a wholemeal tuna and weetcorn pitta. Does anyone have an idea on what size pitta you can have? Have brought some from somerfield and have just noticed as i've typed the key word here...

Whoop whoop bleedingheck is in the house!!! I too have been mega busy at work getting up early and getting home late eating my tea having a cuppa and going to bed..... weigh in this week i stayed the same WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I wouldn't mind but i've been rather good...

mine was hopeless the lid doesnt go on quite right so when i shake it it goes every where! i always use a blender with my shakes as need ot have ice in them

I have chicken tikka every friday and make up a salad to go with it at home, there is a bit of sauce with it and onions. I have continued to have it, i do it to stay sane and is my weekly treat as we always had a curry on a friday night so didn't want to feel i was missing out if you know what...

Well i've had a great day today... work was horrendous but i saw a colleague that hasn't seen me for over 2 months and they were shocked at the change and said i looked like a different person!!! was lovely.... Then tonight i popped to the shop en route to pick up my friday night curry...

And so you should be! thats amazing!:bliss:

Bleeding heck completed!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!

Sadly it wasn't for me, but then i didn't like the vanilla, banana strawberry in fact i like nothing other than choc mint and chocolate/peanut/caramel bars

Abz have a brill time!!! and sod the weight gain if any when your on holiday, if you do then get back on the wagon when you get back, if you don't then bonus!!! just do everything in moderation and i'm sure you'll be fine!! xx

just popped to see my cdc to pick up some porridge may have a pack now... cant wait till breakfast....i hope its nice!!

when do you go?? i go 2nd November so may start a holiday ticker to loose weight BTW i tried a different tack today, had my choc mint shake at 6.15am, then had my muesli at around 10.30 the store looked at me like i'd lost the plot when i got my bowl and teaspoon out my laptop bag! had my bar...

i see mine weekly for around 20 mins

sounds good! have been reading reviews of where we are going on holiday in November... gourmet all inclusive resort, they even stock your mini bar up with 6 coronas each day... that will do me for breakfast!!! i'm hoping to get about 7 lbs under target before we go so i can compensate!

i went on the wii fit earlier so hopefully that will cancel some of it out!! am going to get some more water!!

me too! but getting back on track now

gonna try that tomo

oh dear Abz have been bad.... made a cake today (why i ask myself as i never normally do) any hows.... whipped the double cream up for the middle bit and had 2 spoons of that with jam and just had a slice (wasn't a massive one - smaller than i would normally) then 2 chocolate caramel biscuits...

i'm enjoying it, bt am finiding i'm hungry 12 and 8 so am trying to spread my food out a bit better

cake

Have your scales budged abz? my seem to be stuck...! thought maybe giving them a kicking would work, but alas, it was the same when i stood on

funny bish bosh! i guess its my fault forliving in the middle!!! hey there's always today!

good luck with SW

WOW!!

big

I've been reading few posts over the last 10 mins and have seen numerous mentions of sunshine.... i say what??? sunshine??? there's none bloody here! right whinge over

sorry do you mean spread throughout the day or literally having half the chicken breats and veg your supposed to?

and when i say east i mean if you chop the country into qtrs!! its meant in the loosest sense of of the word

Yep all over, mainly the east at the mo so have hull, grimsby, halifax, huddersfield, sheffield, lincolnshire, east anglia, notts, then Mk, bedford, luton, st albans and that neck of the woods and then in london area hampstead, woolwich, lewisham, dalston, wood green etc then southend colchester...

lol! just noticed your xmas ticker... blimey its not long now!

i do loss prevention in retail. I need to reduce losses and drive compliance in my 75 stores

I cant do anything in moderation, thats my problem so i have to steer well clear now unless its a special occassion. I have to do alot of driving around the Uk with my job and weight gain is probable the curse of the job due to the lack of activity. I would eat lunch everyday either...

how are you feeling today? x

i love the chicken bakes too....

Hey Fizzy Have you had fibre 89? I found when i started drinking peppermint it was a bit easier too, its good for the digestive system i think i feel for you as its horrible when that happens, mademe feel really bleugh

i am... i love the apple danish at greggs... ooh its lovely....:drool:

Diet coke? yeah!!!!!!:strikeout_button:

hahaha i think its really funny too... i have seen it in circulation countless times but it still gets me howling with laughter:giggle:

you dont want any embarrassing watermelons i'm sorry i'm going to bed OH thinks i've lost the plot as i'm laughing at the computer

I am a peppermint tea freak now!! Twinnings is nce, but i don't like the organic version, i've used bought Asda's i think thery were 1.19 ish for 40 and i think they are the nicest as its quite a subtle flavour, but the twinnings does make your mouth tingle - however it hasn't for a while...

Are you on SS? I think you really should try and have it as it has the nutrients that your body needs x

i must admit it has never happened to me, have you been really active today?

I'm sorry but whilst we are on this subject i must post this joke email which i find hilarious, turd burglar and havana omlette make me cry with laughter.... read on if you find toilet humour funny..... We've all been there but don't like to admit it. We've all kicked back in our cubicles...

:sick0019: hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha and ha I will stand up and be counted and say you were not the only with that prob!!!! I increased my intake of fibre89

sorry i wouldn't know on that one hun

Thought we had in team 1 but didn't read the full post sorry

:talk017::talk017: Yay!! well done you!

i started on the 4th June, my losses have never been massive 7.25, 4, 1.75, 4.25, sts, 3, 3, 3, 1, 1.25 but i'm happy when ever its a loss or not a gain!

Thanks guys i'm on about 2-3 litres of peppermint tea a day hahaha with about half a pint of plain water. Am going to try and increase my water until weigh in (next wednesday and see what happens) i've moved onto 1000 plan this week also so hoping that my metabolism gets a bit of a kick start

Thats soo funny i used to hate that fruit bag too!!!!

i never used to enjoy the classes at WW, but th eleader at SW was funny so it was bearable!! I must admit i can think of better nights out!

Morning JMC, thanks for that xx things are going well albeit slowly just lately! Not too worried though as having bounced between WW and SW for the last 5 or god knows how many years and being heavier than when i joined i'm over the moon with how this plan works and has slotted into my life!!

Congratulations on being in the 12's!!! now get glugging that water!

i'm looking forward to poached egg on toast tomo which is my absolute favorite! i'm supposed to have a cd with brekkie but i find i'm always hungry after tea so may save it till then, don't think it would hurt?

fab just eating my muesli!

I was thinking:confused:... scary i know.... Majority of my fluid intake comes from drinking peppermint tea, do you think this could be why my weight has slowed down or it shouldn't really make a difference?

Apologies! last week 10.13 and a half this week 10.12 and a qtr

Well done Camilla!!! x

i'm going to increase my water intake!:happy036::happy036:

go light weights go lightweights!!

Bloody Hell!!!! that is AMAZING!!! Are you drinking loads of water?

Evening Ladies! How has your week been?? Have just sent my weigh in results over... another 1.25 lbs bites the dust! again not a massive loss but i'd rather it be off then on!!

Hey Abz Glad that its suiting you, i'm moving onto the 1000 tomorrow also. Must admit am disapointe as have worked myself into a frenzy about having shredded wheat for brekkie rather than my choc mint shake (is the only flavour i 'do') to find my cupboards are bare of shredded...

well i say well done on 5 kit kat chunky's!!!!!! i always like to confess on this forum then get back on track the next day!

well if it means being able to look like you do in a pair of jeans then i'm sticking to it! you look fab!!

thank you x

Well I have just come back from my weekly weigh in and i'm now moving onto the 1000 plan. I must confess that I feeling rather scared at the prospect of returning to normality as the structure of the SS+ has really worked for me and although I've had a couple of wobbles / binges on ham & star...

Hi Sue You look FANTASTIC!!! Can't wait to see the next pic! x

Your doing so well! just dont give in just over a third of the way there!

my typing is AWFUL!!!

i m struggling too, i think i started the same time as you 'ish' i've gone onto 810 now my weight seems to have stabalised a bit, but for some reason i either stay the same or just keep loosing a pound each week then i have a drop of 3 -4 then back to a lb here and there i guess were all...

took me a while.... but you load them onto phot bucket then copy the link into your signature, just like you do on your ticker hope that helps x

oh! am going to bed have lost the plot today!! nite!x

havent we got a space in our team?

just being a pleb i guess!!! slipped up with 2 packs of opal fruits on the way home (ate them in half an hour and still feel sick), think i have a sweet tooth..... or issues lol... xx

feel like the team lightweight on this one... am sorry!! will be very good for next weigh in xx

howdo! have we all had a good day? i must say i've been pretty heroic today my halo has not wobbled once rah!

Amazing

1.5lbs to go.... come on!!!!

thats pretty

am here too just got in from work and am shaking it away.... may do a bit of wii fit but to be honest can't be arsed today am soooooo tired! That was an amazing weight loss btw.... whats your tattoo of?

I lurve the shoes!! i may wear them today when i'm doing the housework hahaha

Sorry to hear your news... x I would have thought that your weigh in next Thursday would count as it takes your last weigh in weight and your next weigh in weight and we report the difference so your 2 weeks of losses would be included in there? x

Thank you for the lovely comments! xx Heres the shoes!!

Hello I went to a party last night and brought a new outfit for the occassion... (and some new roland cartier shoes... but don't tell the OH he thinks they are new look! lol) So thought i'd share my before and on the journey pics.... Lynn

I'm easy on names although i do like GGG's! Sorry didn't check in yesterday..... absolute rubbish day!! Any how's my weigh in is on Monday so bring it on!

i hope u feel better tomorrow i've started feeling really tired around 2.30 in the afternoon and really irritable, normally have snapped out of it by 3 tho!

Fantastic!!! well done you!!! nothing better than breaking that next barrier.... and... what a heroic effort to loose weight on holiday!

Hi Bev I started at the beginning of June on SS+ and i have lost 2 stone to date. Start weight was 13.1 and am now 10.12 i owuld love to get to 9.7 but 10.7 is my initial goal

My Start photos and during photos... Hopefully this will work this time... if not some one please shoot me

Evening All DCould someone please advise on how i upload photo's.... its not quite happening!

i'm glad that worked lol!!

Thought i'd be brave and post my pics... 2 and a half months in

What a great idea!!! I'm up for a team challenge! 1. Blue_grapefruit (Leah) 2. Tazzi_mctaztaz (Taryn) 3. susan70 ( su) 4. missmf81 (maria) 5. fatgirl666 (Vic 6. Fizzy (Lisa) 7. Camilla 8. Oisin 9. Bish Bosh (Caryl) 10. karenO (Karen) 11. Becky85 (Becky) 12 littlemissspendthrift (taryn) 13...

it does i was stuck at that for ages then i have a big loss then it will be another 6 weeks until i break the next one!.... thing is i never lost a stone at WW or slimming world and i went for months!!! so dunno why i'm whinging!

Hurrai!!! 2lbs is 2lbs!!! and it got you into the stone heroic effort lol!!!

How did u get on? x

nah just around the knees now!!

i started on ss+ and have had good losses to date. I attempted to do SS for around 10 days but i kept on cheating. Have bnow gone onto 810. I have my 3 CD's a day a chicken breast for teas and as much cabbage or broccolli that i need i don't really stick to the 3 tablespoons you just need to...

Hope all goes well tomorrow!! good luck xx

those are really great inch losses!! well done you!! There is always around a 2lb difference between mine and my cdc scales also, but my logic is that i will continue to weigh myself on my scales long after i stop seeing my cdc so my scales count more than hers!! (also lighter on mine he he)

ha ha bottoms up!

yep just done a photo show.... the change is huge!!! any way we'll all be skinny minis soon!

It sure does Minz!!! i count evey qtr of a pound it's important!!!!

Thx!! it's great isn't it!! i'm sure you will if you stick at it... I've just taken some pictures of my before and during quite a difference, have you done that?

no problems! let me know how you get on with your weigh in on Friday!! I am in SUCH a good mood today! lol

Just stick at it, and all of a sudden it will melt away... I was close to saying sod it, but glad i stuck it out!!! i've noticed my body does this at each stone its almost as if it's being stubborn and saying no i will not go over that number, then in time it balances out and it starts off again

i normally go from work but as i travel all over the country my world revolves around the location of service stations on the way home with all this extra water i'm taking so thinking of my pattern i'll have 2 cups of peppermint tea in the morning (one in the house and one in the thermal mug for...

its the best diet EVER!!!! trying to decide what my next target is.... anyway will be putting more energy into my house work and ironing today rahhhh!!!

Thanks Susan! yes they do i feel mega mega motivated again now!!! i've doen my first 4 goals that i set when i started doing CD and i never really thought i'd get here as have been unsuccessful on other diets / clubs before..... so am well and truly overthe moon and am looking forward to...

:D:D:D:D:D:DWell after 2 and a half weeks stuck at 11 stone and 2 pounds i've finally broke the 11 stone and was 10 12 and a 1/4 this morning YAY!!!!! needed to shout at someone as OH is out!!:D:D:D:D:D:D

Well done!!!! I got my wii fit yesterday has hula hooping all night!!!

is wii fit any good?? i really want it but can't get one anywhere!

just glug some water and then some more and hopefully you'll be ok!! i average losses of around 3 a week sometimes 2.... but i'm not heroic!

Its not a blip, just try and stay focused and you'll probably be suprised tomorrow, have you weighed yourself at home?

i was on ss+ for the first 6 weeks and have just gone onto 810 as started cheating, am hoping to go up to 1000 and will loose the last stone gradually... i need the food..... dry chicken and cabbage yummmmm!!!! I wouldn't get disapointed if you loose under 4 pounds, the chances are you...

Well done on getting back on the wagon... i'm sorry to hear you've had a rough time lately, you have done amazingly well so far you just need to keep going xx

i did 20 mins on the tread mill.... you should be fine with coke zero and chicken, which plan are you on?

albeit late... i'm giving you a kick up the bum....!!! hope your feeling better today x

at the risk of sharing just a little bit too much...... i had a some chocolate and it had a 'loosening' effect very much a need to go moment.... that has cured me of my chocolate urges as i'm too scared to eat it now!!! the problem is i now crave biscuits!!

yep right now... i must confess i had some oreo's today and i wouldn't mind but if i was gonna cheat i should have picked a better biscuit!!! i always break at the totm!:rolleyes:

Hey... I have to have alot of over nighters so i just take ablender and plug it in my room!! god knows what the neighbours think. I always have a soup as a back up, and when it comes to meal times i always askl for chicken no sauce and just eat the veg. As long as your careful and drink...

When i was at my heaviest i would still go on the treadmill around 4 times a week and do 3 miles in around 45 minutes and jog for around 3 of those minutes.... !! anyhow today i started on the treadmill again and havent been on for around 2 and a half months, and what really shocked me is that...

hair

I started on ss+ and stuck to it really well. Start weight on 4th June was 13.1 and this morning i'm 11.2 and a qtr(it counts). when i did ss+ i stuck 100% as I always felt satisifed, i dropped to SS 2 weeks ago and i have been cheating, i enjoy having that meal when i get in from work so going...

low

They hit the spot in this weather!!

i froze a tetra last night, quite enoyed that one, but think my tastebuds are completely shot now!!!

i'm going to give that a try then, and would that be a 'free' extra?

That sounds nice Susan, how much gelatine do you use?

Thanks abz! i was hoping it was a cheeky extra.... bummer!!! are you feeling better today?

Hello A quicky really.... I have seen mousse mentioned a few times here and have seen it on the proce list with my cdc, i was wondering would this count as one of your meals for the day or is it an extra?

didn't realise you have to limit on the water flavourings... i add about half a teaspoon per pint! oops well it doen't seem to be affecting me so will crack on with it!

only 8.5 left for me to go... and i tought pap as if when i started at the beginning of big bro!

Yuk!! Mine have always been ok thus far fingers crossed..

summer

prada

I'd go by what feels comfy and within the bmi range so anything between 9 and 12 stone for your height i think

I'm with you on that one such an injustice!!! said to OH this morning was considering it, not sure i'm brave enough though, but would love to!

yocals

am too slow on this!!

on ss+ you can have 3 cd plus a 200kcal meal or 4 CD plus 200ml of skimmed milk

hill

My cdc has gone on holiday for 18 days boo hoo, but on Thursday we started to discuss my end goal. The plan for me is to get to the top of my acceptable BMI then start moving up the plans. For me its a BMI of 25 which is around 10 5 or 6 (which would be bliss in itself)

If it were me I would go for the date and enjoy myself but choose sensibly off menu, then get straight back on track the next day, i have a few functions at work and i just choose chicken with sauce on the side and veg, i drink water and say that I can't drink at the moment, some people ask why...

my boobs are shrinking which is a shame as not got much to start with... plus side though my butt is also decreasing so can't have everything!!

Hello!! I've just done the same 21.5 lost and 20.5 to go...!!!! well done us Hurrah!

What a fab idea!!! never thought of that before

hey I'm also a fb addict my name is Lynn Withers if you wish to add...

its still a good loss.. what are your inches like?

exactly!!! but what i really dont kjnow is why i ate the ryvita minins i dont even like them! hahaha

thanks abz.... forgot to add the :break_diet:lump of cheese.... what a combination eugh!

feel really guilty now. stayed the same this week so in a tantrum have just had 3 ginger nuts, a bag of ryvita minis a kitkat and a cambridge chocolate bar.... feel sick:eek:

hello Your doing superb, loosing over 6 stone is amazing x x x Lynn

Congratulations!!! enjoy the bar and the new job. Your weight loss is amazing and has just cheered me and spurred me on so thanks again!!!

I may join u on that one mwah ah ha ha ha (thatsa meant to be an evil laugh) the chocolate ones are vereee nice!

Thank - you my weigh in is tomorrow and was hoping for a good loss... maybe next week! I'm hopeful that maybe there will be a couple of inches lost, its just difficult have been dreaming of a ham baguette all day..... (its def my brain) I've had bars this week and don't think they fill you up...

I'm having a weak day..... would really love something to eat and am getting fed up.... also the scales aint budging waahhhh:cry:

I'm a loss prevention analyst in retial..... involves lots of driving, lots of visits and lots of training

Don't be upset / angry. Its a minor blip put a line under it and don't allow it to ruin the rest of your week. I had a complete melt down on Friday...! I had been heroic for 2 weeks and nothing had passed my lips that shouldn't have done... then in a day (not moment) of madness i went on a...

Hey... It'll be worth it after your first weigh in, you've done really well to get this far. The first week is the toughest but I've found it gets alot easier xx

Thank god for this post!!! still laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at least I'm not the only one..... may just try a week on banana shakes now!
