Hiya all. Would love to join this group. Have do be SW on and off for the past 15 years but am determined that this will be my last diet struggle. My weigh in days are Tuesdays so will update then. Good luck all x

Well done for going to class and facing up to it. I salute u! I know what you mean about one to one counselling though. My first time round there wasn't many of us in the group so it always felt very personal. We also had the option to pop in and discuss things. I get so much more out of the...

How was class tonight? Am so looking forward to my next class now, even though deep down I feel like a bit of a fraud for not going this week because of my food indiscretions at Xmas. My previous LLC was so strict, there's no way I would even have dreamed of missing a class let alone having a...

Hiya Tillymonster. I discovered your posts a couple of days ago after trying to write my own diary. I have been totally gripped and read every one of your posts. I haven't even bothered anymore with my diary because reading through yours reflects exactly how I'm feeling and the stage I'm at...

Hiya ladies. It looks like we'll all be in great company for this journey. I did LL about 2 years ago. It was the best money I had ever spent! I lost 5 stones in 3 months!! Anyway, went through a really bad time after completing RTM and most of the weight came back on. I restarted 3 weeks ago...

Well done Nikie on the loss and sticking to your guns. That's fab. It gets soo tiring sometimes having to explain over and over that you cant have conventional food especially when it turns into a debate. Yawn! Xxx Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Well done Fairy. I had some pistachios last night. Felt so bad but god they were good. I weigh in tommorow and am hoping I've not done tooo much damage. Here's hoping! Good luck and well done ladies on the journey so far xxx Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Mine has been real heavy which is really not normal for me. I've also been super emotional and achy including backache. It's been a nightmare especially when I've never been one to suffer from period pain or anything. According to my consultant, you'll either be really heavy or have spotting...

You can do it Hun. We can all do it and we'll all do it!! Try ans be strong at the wedding. Just keep on thinking of the bigger picture and how much smaller you'll look at the next wedding you go to and how differently all those people will see you next time you see them. Good luck. Let us...

I so know what you mean ladies. I usually have a 'fresh start' every 2 weeks. But this time is so gonna be different. I've had a word with myself. Lol. Im in it for the long haul this time. Onwards and upwards xxx Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

ChristyT. Just seen your post in binning the boyf. Well done. You did better than I did. Lol xxx Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Hiya ChristyT Some men are just jealous and insecure and it makes them act like twats! Trust me. I've been married to a control freak and insecure bstd for the past 11 years. It doesn't get any better. The worst thing is ( with me anyway) it makes me want to eat sweet naughty devilish things...

Nikie. How did u do? Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Wow! Well done Cam. What motivation that fantastic weight loss is for next weigh in. Xx Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Just thought that I'd share with you all that I have started back on the jelly. I actually use the mix a mousse to make jelly. 1 teaspoon of water flavouring to the mix a mouse, blending with warm water, stick it in the fridge in jelly moulds and voila. In no time u have jelly. This used to get...

Well done Tizzy. Who the hell can resist a mojito?! The fact that you never ate the chips is a massive gold star! You did good girl! I've cancelled all social engagements for the next 6 weeks. Right now I know I'd just be too weak and cave in. Well done xx Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Hiya Nikie We all lose weight at different rates, metabolism, water retention,genes and the list goes on and on and on! I managed to lose 5 stones in 3 months. I didn't even know i had 5 stones to lose! I wasnt overly overweight and am quite tall so i guess i hid the weight well. Admittedly I...

Hiya Jeff. Welcome. I did lighter life a year ago and am now on CWP. I found the first 3 days hell and was soo lethargic. I actually thought I'd contracted some sort of illness but it was just my body adjusting to having no carbs. Anyway, day 4 woke up and literally bounced out of bed. Like...

Hiya Nikie I look forward to reading your diary. You'll do great as you have such a good reason for doing this. You'll look fab at your 30th x Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Sorry. I meant exciting. Not exacting. Flaming iPad! Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

Fairy- hope it all progresses well with 'the train man'. How exacting! ChristyT-what is it about nuts?! Each time I've had a cheat it always involved nuts. . . Am on the peanut bars now so I hope that will curb my salty peanut cravings. Have my weigh in on Thursday and there's no way I can face...

That damn wagon! Not only did I fall off it but fell off and got run over by it!! Dreading weigh in tomorrow. It's been carbicide for the past few days and I feel mentally and physically c**p. it's been one of those horrible weeks where I've had major rows with the hubby, major pressure at work...

Good luck Anna, you an soo do this. Looking forward to sharing your journey with you x Sent from my iPad using MiniMins

I know what it's like to fall off the wagon. The feeling you get afterwards of guilt and dissapointment is horrible. I was only in my 2nd week when I went off the rails big time. I just ate everything in site. I was like a woman possessed! When I went to get weighed I thought my consultant would...

Loving Mike's post. Fab.

Hiya Dwyer2010 The only real difference between LL and CWP is the counselling- I guess that's what brings up the cost. I actually found the counselling a bit of a nightmare after a while. I just wanted to weigh, get my packs and go home. An hour and a half was just too much for me. I found the...

Hiya all I started 3 weeks ago and did lighter life a year ago. My absolute favourite though is the ready made chocolate velvet shake. Yummmmm. I also like the mango shake. I have a bar late in the evening- it seems like a treat which works well for me. Good luck all xxx

Omg. At last. Someone who completely understands!! I work in PR . . . . and so do all my friends. Lol. My best friend is also gay and he lost tons of weight with a vlcd a few years ago and has kept it off. He's the ultimate skinny minnie. Ooooooh the pressure! Thanks for your support x

Welcome. I look forward to reading your diary x

Keep on keeping on lancsgirl.

Hiya i did lighter life about a year ago and lost loads really quickly. Swapped over to cwp as my counsellor left plus cwp was a lot cheaper. I actually prefer the cwp shakes as I find them much more filling and the variety of flavours are really good. The bars are ok too. I stick to the...

Hiya all i really struggle with the whole water consumption thing. I can just about get through a pint. Have never been a big drinker to be honest. good luck with the weight loss xx

Thanks ChristyT Today was a good day. Really pleased as I did struggle a bit whilst dishing out the kids dinners. Am so determined to stick with it and keep the weight off this time. I hate he fact that lots of people (work, friends) are probably saying to themselves 'oh I knew she wouldn't keep...

Hi all Am loving reading your posts. Soo inspirational. have been on cwp for 3 weeks now and already slipped out. Was away for a week on holiday and I knew it would just be way too much to even try and keep to the plan at this early stage. Did lighter life last year and had an amazing weight...
