Well done Debbie! I knew you could do it! Roll on ketosis! Day 2 for me...headache set in already so fingers crossed ketosis should soon follow! X

You go for it Debbie! Like you I woke up rather later today and way too late for breakfast! I'm also on day one of my re-start after a Christmas of totally pigging out! OMG and did I pig! The scales don't lie and what was a 10lb gain the other day has turned into 16lb one now! :eek: I'm hoping...

My OH is 6ft 4! and we own a yorkie!! LOL they do look funny walking down the road! That said our yorkie is fab! he is great with kids even other peoples, doesn't molt, doesn't smell! No dog will smell if you bath them often enough! My house certainly doesn't smell doggy although I do know what...

No idea who Take That wrote it about! What I'm saying is that if you listen to the words of the song you can identify with them and our weightloss journey! How we want to get out of that hole and shine! Maybe its just me but that song hit has hit a nerve for me...listen to it and see! X

I got the Take That CD for Christmas. I've listened over and over again to the words of 'Shine' And feel I wanted to share the words with you all. If you listen to them you can turn them into the way we all have felt when starting this diet journey and how we all want to 'Shine'! I'm sure you...

Well I blew the diet! I think I'm gonna give it a miss now until January temptation is just far to great. I have been looking into having some hypnotherapy to help me conquer the need to binge cells in my brain! Just need to find a good therapist. I went to see one a man who said he gets his...

I've always been a swimmer RD even at my largest! As a child/teenager & young adult I swam for the County! And trained for trials for the Olympics but wasn't good enough :( Butterfly is my best stroke...or was! I used to do a lenght in 28 secs! so a minute is quite slow. Build yourself up the...

Well thats one whole week under my belt! and confession of one day of sin! When I ate 2 jackets spuds :mad: :(. The water over the last 2 days has been hard to get down. And I'm feelin very 'sluggish' today. I will be good today 200%! I'm already diving into my first litre of water! Off swimming...

When in March & which hotel?

Yep!! 2000 chocolates...now less the ones my kids & DH have eaten tonight! But the cookie jar is full and so are 2 plastic boxes!! What a mare...if only it was cheese!!;)

Sorry RD! Got carried away with excitement that I managed not to eat any choc!!

Can't do January busy, busy, busy! But will come to maybe the Summer one. Just spent an hour taking apart advent calenders! 80 of them!! I got them for 1p each in Sainsburys and managed to avoid a handful of women fighting over them!! I didn't even nibble a single choc!! Them smell has made me...

Can you believe this! Women were fighting in my local Sainsburys this morning over......wait for it....... ADVENT CALENDERS!!! Because they were marked down to 1p each!!! Yes 1p!!! Whatever next!! I did get some thought I could give them to my kids mates...since we seem to have a full house...

Smoothie Makers are being recalled! Due to a fault whilst cleaning! I got mine from Costco and they wrote to say it was being recalled and to bring it back. I did so using my Genie now all the time. Had it quite a while but its excellent and everything!! except handstands it can't do that! LOL...
