Oh and also, I'm really enjoying cooking healthy food from scratch lately. Never knew this could one day happen to me lol. Made a low fat (almost fat free) vegan lentil stew yesterday and it's yum! I don't feel sick anymore and can eat much more than I did last week but still watching all my...

I'm still 13:0, well I wasn't expecting to lose a pound a day (obviously) but would be nice if it stalled at 12:13 instead lol! Looking forward to being in the 12 stone bracket after a really long time! :D

Thank you :-)

Dear diary, I don't know if I should keep you as I'm currently only calorie counting, but I don't want to abandon you either. Might as well carry you to the right section sometime when I can be bothered. I'm 13:0 today! Hopefully in a few days I'll finally be in the 12s. I was in the 19s last...

Yes, apparently it helps but doesn't guarantee anything of course. When we eat fat our gallbladder starts pumping bile to break down fat, and when mine starts pumping the stones (I have a lot of those!) sometimes block the bile duct and cause massive pain so the idea is to avoid it totally at...

Dear diary, I had a gallbladder attack almost everyday last weekend and on Monday I started to have stomach pains too, which then turned into a all over tummy pain (stomach, gallbladder, kidneys, diaphragm, going up to shoulder blades) on Tuesday and I was rushed to the hospital on Tuesday eve...

Thanks Jilly :) I thought no one was checking this diary anymore so I sort of stopped updating often.

Heya! I'm also losing weight to be able to conceive my first baby ^^ how was your first week on S&S? x

13:7 today, going in the right direction - slow but steady. Only thing is, I started to have a bit of a gallbladder pain again. Nothing like how it was last year but still scared the hell out of me at the weekend. Tried to book an appt with GP today but I was a bit too late, will try again...

Dear diary, I was feeling a bit poorly since coming back to the UK but I feel much better today. Went ahead and got myself a gym membership from David Lloyd, starting Saturday though as having a really hectic week (lots of overtime at work etc). The scales showed 13:8 this morning so it's going...

Hey guys I'm back! Came home this morning at 3 am and I was up at 7:30 thanks to my overly excited cat she must have missed me a lot as she wanted to sit on my face lol. Aaand the big news is, I saw 13:9 on the scales this morning so I lost 4 lbs in Turkey woot! I had some yummy vegan Turkish...

13s! Finally! The weight loss has definitely slowed down now but that's fine. My work trousers are getting really loose now and I feel great :-) only 6 days left then I'll be taking a 3 week break from cwp/sns. I hope I won't put too much weight on during these 3 weeks, I'll try to stay away...

Thank you :-) I'm still 14st but it's almost TOTM and I feel really bloated. So I might actually have lost a couple more lbs but we will see that next week hehe :p I feel really fat atm due to bloat. From tomorrow on I'll be doing CWP step one (SS), I was on step 2 in the last 3 weeks (also...

Also, only 12 lbs left to my first mini-goal which is an "overweight" BMI!

I've got good and bad news today, dear diary. Bad news: I had to stop 30DS as I hurt my left ankle. Last time (3-4 years ago that is) when I hurt my left knee I just ignored and continued my workouts and it damaged my knee for good. Still aches a bit but there's nothing I can do about it, so I...

Thank you :) I definitely recommend it, I don't think it affected my weight loss tbh as I lost 8 lbs in 11 days and I'm well chuffed! :D I can really feel it now, feeling fitter & slimmer and can't believe it all happened in 10 days. All my work trousers are getting very loose and people started...

Finally 14:2! Now just 1 stone left till the "overweight" bracket. Yesterday was my rest day, today 30DS level 2 starts. Hope I can survive that one... :character00115:

Finished 30 day shred level 1 today, and already dreading tomorrow's workout! :character00116::eek: Weight is still 14:3, past few days it didn't move but I knew I wouldn't be able to lose a pound a day for too long :p so I'm ok with that. Really looking forward to going into the "13 st" bracket...

Thanks guys! I think levothyroxine also helped as I was losing mega slow last time if you remember, before my gp found out that I had hypothyroidism for goodness knows how long... Oh well I'm glad it's all sorted now and the weight is coming off nicely.

Added 40min of Pilates to today's exercise session, I LOVE pilates I used to do it almost every day some years ago and I was quite strong and really flexible, however that's not the case anymore. Oh well, started again today and will slowly work my way up to that level again. Also lost another...

Did it! I'm now 14:5 once again :) Lost 5.5 lb in 6 days and I'm well chuffed. Next mini goal is 13:2 then my BMI will be in the "overweight" range instead of obese. Looking forward to that!

Only 1 lb left till I get back to my lowest weight (14:5) and then will continue from there. Exciting! Glad I didn't put too much weight on while I was on a "break". I have a horrible back ache though I don't know if I should blame 30DS for it or not. I'll have a rest day today and do some...

I don't know if anyone actually reads these but I'll update anyway, lol! Today was my 3rd day of 30DS level1 and so far so good. My abs and thighs are really hurting but for some weird reason I quite enjoy the pain hehe.. My SnS & CWP & atkins mixture also going great. I had a CWP porridge this...

I'm back! After 2 months of dabbling I'm finally back on the right track. I'm currently doing a CWP & SnS combo, having 1 SnS meal and 2 CWP shakes. I also started Jillian Michaels - 30DS and it's totally kicking my ass! When I feel like I need more calories after my workout, I usually have a...

Wb Claire awww but that's ok it will surely happen one day and in the meantime you can just focus on losing weight & getting fit etc. I also fell off the wagon but didn't put any weight on it's a miracle lol. Got my products so I'm restarting as well, just need to finish my orange juice and rice...

Ok I haven't lost anything this week not even a quarter of a pound. Well I can't say I'm doing it 100% but still, I'm not eating enough calories for maintaining yet I can't shift the weight. I think I'll go back to Simplicity and maybe add a bit more exercise. I'm starting my Jillian Michaels...

Hi Claire how did the boob consultation go? x

Ohai ^^ yeah totally agree with u on that, it used to get me really down in the past (and actually these stalls were once a reason for quitting) but I'm more experienced now and I know my weight loss pattern - and it's going just as how I thought it would. SLOW! Lol :-)

Dear diary, I guess I hit yet another plateau. Haven't lost a single pound this week. Was hoping to be in the 13st bracket by the end of Feb. :( I deffo need to start drinking more water + add exercise, was planning to start walking but I couldn't do anything this week. Feeling really tired...

Glad the interview went well! And I guess I need to eat mayo :ashamed0005::giggle:

Going alright but haven't lost anything this week, don't know if it's because of that cheat day :confused: I'm back on track now though x

Good luck today hun

I had a major blip couple days ago but back on track now hun. Lots of water, exercise and hopefully it won't affect this week's WI (if you do it weekly ofc). I'm already losing very.... very slowly and I had a 1 lb gain after the blip so started exercising (well, walking.. but I wasn't doing...

Had a blip yesterday :( but I'm back on track today. I need to lose "at least" 3.5 stone before july so I know I need to up my game. Thinking of adding some low impact exercise or something for a start, like walking. In may I'll do 30 day shred (Jillian Michaels) and in June I'm planning to do...

yay congrats hun!! mmmm I love me some posh boobs! when I lose the weight I'm so gonna get mine done though I need breast reduction & lift. I seriously hate mine :(... Horrible big bras, constant backache, also looking fatter and older than I actually am.. and poor hubby haven't even seen them...

I'm a veggie so tuna is not an option but I will try it with broccoli/cauliflower next time as I still have quite a few packs of cheesy pasta left

So I made the cheesy pasta yesterday and it was a disaster.. I didn't like the taste and the pasta was crunchy and horrible. I couldn't stomach it and had a bar instead so wasted one of my meals now :( I made the bolognese one before and it was perfect don't know what I did wrong this time.

Last shift in Asda..... I'm jealous lol! :eek: Hope I'll be able to say that one day :party0011::rolleyes:

Great news hun, this was the one you wanted anyways wasn't it? Let me know how it goes tomorrow or whenever they contact you :) x

Did someone say fondue? GIMME! :D How is it going Sam? I've stalled again:mad: due to TOTM but otherwise it's going great, guess I'm getting used to living without real food :giggle:

yea it's terrifying to see how many calories, fat/sugar we used to consume everyday...

ugh I'm not sure about the white wine let me know what u think when you try it lol

dear diary, finally this is the end of pms as the ugly witch has finally shown her ugly face this morning! feeling extremely bloated but hopefully will be back to normal in 3-4 days. i feel really fat atm... I quite like the lemon yoghurt bars now! muesli one is by far the best though wish I got...

I'm deffo getting some this week. I don't think I'll get cola one as I have coke zero everyday already :p want to get orange and lemon, hopefully I'll be able to drink some water then!

Wow that's great well done :) I'm not size 18 yet but hopefully soon :cross:

morning hun 38g carbs not too bad, you can get away with that without kicking yourself out of keto. no need multivitamin imho just 1 day anyways, and it's normally impossible to get every nutrient 100% rda with conventional food either so it should be fine. if you were using the veg allowance...

By the way I've just noticed my Thalassian is much better than my Darnassian, and I'm alliance! Well I used to be horde for 2 years but that was ages ago. Oh well... Back on my pc as I'm not really in a reading mood atm (which is rare as I'm a proper bookworm). It's almost 2am, hubby is playing...

elune-adore :-) Can't sleep - again! I think it's pms, I usually have insomnia the day before AF is due but this time it started early. Will go read my book that I got for 90p from asda :o

Thanks guys :) Looks like we've got quite a few gamers around here :woohoo:

Thanks hun :) Yeah I'm 14:9 as of this morning. Still very bloated though :( Been cramping & horrible backaches for about a week already and AF is not even due yet, worst pms ever.

Wow that's a great loss in one month congrats :) imo you can easily lose 15 lb by the end of Feb x

True.. Should have waited till tomorrow but I was too impatient :o By the way I'm about to have my period and this might have an effect on my weight as well. Will wait and see...

Ok I have good news and bad news. So I went to Argos half an hour ago with the broken scales, they just asked for reservation code which I had, post code and house number and then replaced them with a new one :DNow the bad news. I weighed myself as soon as I came home - was so excited I couldn't...

Oh lol you sound like me now! I think it's a good idea to get a pen and a piece of paper and list all the options, then pros and cons of each one - as many as you can. I find it much easier to make a decision when I do that, also short-term / long-term goals etc. That helps me see a very clear...

Not yet :( planning to go to Argos on Wednesday so hopefully I'll have my first weigh in on Thursday morning x

Subscribed :) good luck hun

Hey :) I haven't been able to sleep well since Saturday so I feel really moody lol (also hate Mondays) but diet-wise it's going great. How's Atkins going so far?

That might be a good idea actually lol :D will do my best.

I guess so :) I have a long way to go - about 5 stone to lose by august so I'll most likely stick with SnS. 7 lbs in 7 days wow that's a great loss! Especially when you don't have much to lose, well done :clap: and good luck on your Atkins journey :hug99:

I have a 3 hour sunday shift (1-4) which I really don't like but I had to pick between saturday night and sunday noon so I chose sunday. You never know hun something nice might come up, good luck on your job hunting x

Thanks guys I'll have a look at their online catalogue now. I got my WW one from Argos 11 months ago. It says 10 year guarantee on it actually but I ofc don't have the receipt :( I've reserved online so I have a reservation code and everything but it's not a proof that I've actually picked it...

Oh dear I'd be pissed off as well I know exactly how you feel... Something similar happened to us once and the place was almost empty, there were only 4 tables to look after. But somehow they had forgotten about us and after the starters we waited for about an hour.. Then my husband had to go...

Why not? If this is what you want to do then go for it hun :) it's never too late. Been playing WoW with OH since we woke up lol. Such laziness...

SO the batteries arrived but the scales STILL showing 10:10.... Seriously WW? It's only been a year and it's already broken. Meh... Need to get a new one... :/ Can any of you recommend a good one? Not too expensive though. :(

Did cambridge before, lived on 3 shakes a day for 4 months without cheating :eek: Lost just over 4 stone but then put it all back on (and some) as I didn't move up the steps properly but just started eating....Lots... I won't make the same mistake this time though, learned my lesson. :( Nah I...

Did someone say career change? :) I have the same problem, well, sort of. Always wanted music but parents didn't let me so I got a psychology degree. Absolutely hated my job. Was having stomach ache every single morning and was feeling ill almost all the time at work. As a psychologist I was...

I just came home from work! I work at asda pharmacy and we close at 11 pm :eek: I feel really poorly today, tired achy and my face is burning. Good thing is I totally lost my appetite so don't really feel like eating anything at all. Oh, and I LOVE chocolate :giggle:

Wow! You're melting away! :clap: I'm alright I guess finally got used to living without conventional food (I'm doing simplicity), just really want to know how much I've lost so far but scales not working :mad: ordered new batteries so hopefully will find out soon! I was already dieting (calorie...

Chocolate trufa bar is lush! Wish we could have 2-3 bars a day :o

Hey hun good luck on your journey :) also if you're happy with the products (and the results) why don't you just continue on your own? Sneakily :D :p

First week's lost is mostly water weight anyways, maybe you had less of it this time? Don't be discouraged :) congrats on your loss x

Great loss hun well done! x

S&S one doesn't have the hidden chunks of powder though, at least! :D

I liked CWP porridge more, to be honest! This one is vile :9529: I couldn't finish it, don't know what I'm going to do with the rest of the packs!

Wow I've only just seen this! You look great! :heartpump: And only 2 st to goal weight :eek: exciting! Well done x

Dear diary, This morning I felt brave enough to try the porridge. :yuk: Why oh why did I buy 28 of them? It was a bit more edible with cinnamon though. Scales still not working, I'm dying to find out how much I've lost so far! Although I know that I won't see a big number as I've already lost...

Wow that's a great loss and you look fab! x

Wow you look stunning! :clap:

Wow what a difference in just 8 weeks! Well done x

Yay! Yea saw cherry coke zero at Asda the other day. Never tried them before though are they nice?

Oh ok lol :D By the way are we allowed to have coke zero on S&S?

oh wow that sounds fun! :) except the burnt ears/eyebrows ofc :p night elves ftw <3

I've been playing since vanilla (well, started just before TBC release), I even met my husband on WoW lol he was our main tank :D as you would have guessed, pretty much no social life here x

Lol! Still showing 10:10 btw, not sure if it's just a battery problem :confused: Was a WW one I got only a year ago and was quite happy with it until now. I'm used to weighing myself everyday so I'm suffering at the moment :sigh:

Hi guys feeling a bit tired and poorly so wasn't around much. Don't know if it's a virus or just side effects of a low carb diet lol. It's going good so far, I think I like S&S more than CWP already. More options and the products actually taste nice! I was living on choc shake and porridge when...

Started to feel better :) yea that was probably dehydration. I really don't like drinking water but I'm doing my best atm (still not enough tho) I could get 15 free bars with my purchase and I chose lemon yoghurt bars. They're alright, but not like CWP lemon bars (I used to really like those)...

Day 2 and I'm still alive! Have a headache though still, thought I'd sleep it off but nope.

Thanks guys :) They delivered the parcel today so I'm starting tomorrow! Exciting.. Hope I like the meals lol x

Hi guys, I've just placed my order and hopefully will be starting on Monday or Tuesday depending on the delivery. I'll be on Simplicity program. I'm 30 years old, married & no kids but that's also one of our plans for 2014, fingers crossed :o This won't be my first VLCD experience. I lost 4st on...

mine is doing my nails as well lol x

Good luck on your journey Maximus, it will be a great start to 2013 :cool: I'm quite curious about hypnosis so it'd be great if you could share your experience with us when you have your first session ;)

First 3-4 days are the worst, then it gets much easier.. I've lost just over 3.5 stone in 11 weeks (SS-100%) it's not that hard believe me. Stay focused, eyes on the prize.

nerd

hipster :eek:

IMO it's by far the best cambridge product.. too bad we can only have 1 a day lol :cry:

I couldn't stomach maple&pecan one either, but I absolutely LOVE the original porridge with lots of cinnamon in it :) You must try.. BTW I'm a strict vegetarian as well, but I don't think we're limited at all. We can have almost all the products -except a few like mix a mousse etc.

this ^^^ :D

Oh lol :D Lucky you! I wish I could forget eating but sadly I was the opposite, I was non-stop eating junk while playing so the pounds piled up quickly :cry: Now I have cups of tea instead :p Congrats on your 4 lbs loss this week, you're going great! x

Hello Cartwoman, great to meet another geek here lol! I've also been playing WoW since 2006 (I even met my husband there lol) and I blame Blizzard Entertainment for my excess fat. :rolleyes: Good luck with your journey :o

loop ;)

Good luck with your journey!! The first few days can be really hard I know but just hold on, it gets much easier and especially when you start seeing the results - it's the best feeling ever :)

I currently have a WW one as well, been using for a long time with no problems at all. However my cdc's ones showing me like 3 lbs less :confused: Still don't know which one is right lol x

that's amazing well done girl :) x

I've been using MFP for over a year and I love it - I log everything I eat and ofc exercises too. My username is the same (LadySylvanas) so feel free to add me :)) x

xSinead, how long did it take you to lose that 6 st? xx

I'm also SSing through Christmas I know if I take a break I can't get back on track so just staying 100% no matter what. Though I might be done with SS by Christmas - depending on how fast I lose this last stone.

oops :eek: tan :o

original porridge is my fav lol :eek: :o with lots of cinnamon ofc
