Thank you! Yes felt amazing when I realised!!! I never thought it would work for me before I started this diet but soo determined!!! Good luck with your losses.... It is possible!

Week 14 and I thought I had gained 2lb and couldn't understand why... I had actually lost 12lbs!!! So so pleased!!!! An inch off my bust too!!

OMG initially I thought I had gained 2lbs & couldn't understand how!!! Went to write it on my log and realised I'd lost 12lbs!!!!! Soooo pleased!!! Smashed my target!!! Any more this month is a very big bonus!!!! sarah-lou* 21lbs (0lbs lost, 21lbs to go)* donjon 14lbs (2lbs lost, 12lbs to go)*...

Yay 100% for me tooo!!!

Week 13 & finally managed to get back on plan!!! A loss of 9lbs as well as an inch off my waist, hips & each thigh & half inch off each bicep!! So 3 & a half stone gone... Not bad for 3 months work with a few blips!!! Feel really motivated again...

I thought the same for the oatmeal! It still tastes ok in the new packaging but it goes a weird consistency & colour when heated that it never used to do!!!!

I started at 18 stone 6lbs in November and a size 24. I have lost just under 3 stone & can now fit into a size 18-20 depending on where I buy from so i have dropped 2-3 dress sizes!! Aiming for a size 12-14 so a few more stone to go!!!!

Well done everyone on your losses! Here's to doing it again in February!!!

Week 11 & I have STS however it is TOTM & have ended up being off plan most of the week! January has been a tough month & I have prob only managed a week & half in total on on plan throughout January due to surgery & illness so am grateful I have had some losses!!! I am hoping I can be strong &...

Caramel was scrummy hot!!! Can't wait to try all the others!!!!

Well stayed the same this week & haven't reached my January target!!! Having said that it is TOTM & I have prob only been on plan properly for a week and a half throughout the month due to illness & surgery so to have lost what I did is still an achievement!!! I look forward to getting back on...

Atkins do a variety of bars! The advantage bars are huge & way more carbs/cals etc however I find the daybreak ones and the endulge ones are not quite as bad! They are not ideal however I don't like the S&S bars so if I feel like I need a bar I choose to have one of those rather than go off plan...

Caramel will the one I try next then!! Thanks for the recommendation!!!

Wow I just had the banana shake hot!!! It was yummy just like a banana steamer that you buy from a coffee shop!!! Even nicer than the chocolate hot!! Which one to try next I wonder...

Well week 9 & back on plan, I had meals out Friday & Saturday but stuck to salads & did lots of walking which appeared to pay off!!! A loss of 5lbs plus an inch of my waist. Now at the top end of the 15 stone mark rather than the ugly 18 stone something I started at just a few weeks ago! Total...

Thanks everyone and welcome to the newbies out there! I love this site and agree posts can be really inspiring! I may not post very often but refer to it regularly! I would struggle without it! So far 2013 going well so hopefully the scales will agree on Tuesday! :)

Thank you! I'm really chuffed!!! :-)

Well week 6 weigh in on Tuesday was better than expected! Having a planned break due to Xmas parties & drinking! I indulged at the weekend but managed to stay the same with an inch loss on my waist & shoulders & half an inch of each bicep!! Not back on plan properly until 27th so not sure next...

Thanks for the heads up! I had already done a big order but was able to order one by itself! Due to arrive tomorrow! Can't wait...

Really not sure where time has gone.... Week 5 completed already!!! A 6lb loss this week which makes up for my 1lb loss last week when I was TOM! Also half an inch off my neck & an inch off my hips!! Just 1lb off a 2 stone loss... Very happy!! Now to plan exactly how I'm gonna manage this with...

Ok week 4 was only 1lb off along with 1 inch off my hips, 1 inch off my bust & 1 inch off my waist! It has been TOTM tho so hope for a bigger loss next week!!! That's still a total of 21lbs in 4 weeks so can't complain really! Onwards & inwards.....

I worry a bit too! I would have only been on slim & save for 5 or 6 weeks before a planned break! I'm so pleased with results tho I am determined for it to continue & have nothing else big planned until end of April! So I will be sensible, expect a gain before I get back on it 100%. Good luck...

Great thread! I have plans for the 8th, 13th, 15th & 20th & poss the 26th!!! Not bothered about Xmas day so much! I need to plan what days I actually try & incorporate into slim & save & which days I plan as off days so I can drink!!! Either way I will decide beforehand & stick to it!! I quite...

I've just ordered it from amazon today so plan to start it very soon!!!

Thank you! It varies some days 3 packs plus protein but most days 4 packs! I only had milk in 1st week but will have it again if I fancy it! Veg I have if I feel i need a bit more but not everyday! I've ordered some zero noodles so look forward to trying them too! I have a lot to lose hence so...

Nothing in there! Not to worry! I will maybe just try 1 teaspoon next time!

What enclosed scoop thing? I don't think I got one of those!

I had the same problem! Far too thick & I could taste granules in it! Had to throw it away as I just couldn't stomach it! I too would appreciate any recommendations!

Ooh they sound nice!!! I didn't see them when I ordered! Are they new & where will I find them?

Excellent! :) I'm completely new to VLCD! I lost over 4 stone with weight watchers a couple of years ago but put it all back on! I have also ordered 4 weeks worth and I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised by the taste so far! Slim & save also have enough choice I hope to stop me getting too fed...
