Hey hun sorry to hear work is so rubbish :( at least you have travels to look forward to, just try and keep that in mind. I'm in a similar situation at the mo, I really like the people I work with but the work just isn't enough anymore and I'm getting bored... Getting bored at work.... Leads to...

Hey sounds like you are doing well :) Pleased to hear you got to see your other half on Valentine's... These situations always seem to pop up to try and knock us of course! I find the less you have to lose the harder it becomes, but stick with it as you're heading in the right direction! Good...

Hey hun I really relate to this post like I have a lot of yours! I need to get about 10 lbs off still and find it hard to decide which step to stick to and then end up sticking to none of them! I'll be doing step 2-3 mostly now until goal, I want a stone off ideally and by a wedding on 18 Oct...

Hey guys thanks for popping by, hope you are all doing well! Sorry to hear Theresa that you've put some back on but I suppose that's life and it'll always be something we need to work at :/ I'm doing ok, have maintained ok and have revised my goal to 12 stone as that is where I look and feel...

Hey hun, how are you?! Haven't been on here for ages! Been so busy! Lots of hen dos and two weddings this weekend including my brothers for which I am bridesmaid! So I have now lost 79lb in total and about a stone off target. I haven't been losing lots lately but I haven't put on either so...

That's amazing, well done to you and your Mum!! The big numbers really make it worthwhile and spur you on!!

Hey hun, the colour depends on hydration. As long as it turns at least the lighter color you are in ketosis, the darker the colour just means that you may be a little dehydrated. Hope that helps, you're doing great!!

Well done for resisting the bread!! When you wake up tomorrow you will feel so much better for not caving!! What a fab idea about looking back on your bank card, real eye opener, mine would have read the same plus more on wine and the rubbish I would get doing the weekly shop!! It really is a...

So after having a week off, this is now my third day back on plan and it's true what everyone says, it is hard once you've had a break! Feeling good today tho apart from a bit of a headache. So 9 more lbs until I move up to step 2 And then only a stone to go.... Can't believe it! My CDC has...

Sorry for last post, that was a prank, but someone who is not funny!! Husband and I perfectly well! Hope everyone is doing ok x

Thanks missy! If I'm tempted to go overboard this weekend will just look at the picture and Remind myself how far I have come!!

That's brilliant news :) I don't see my CDC four two weeks now so think I will speak to her when she gets beck about becoming a consultant, thought about it for a while. I'd the training/set up a lot, if you don't mind me asking?

So weigh in this morning and another 2lb off which I am really pleased about :) had a big 7lb last week and I am due on so was expecting maybe a sts so really happy :) Of plan this weekend for a hen weekend in Manchester, must make sure I apply some discipline tho and not go completely of the...

Ah that's brilliant!! I had a similar experience last night, was looking after a friend daughter and she was playing on the Wii and decided to make one if the characters me... When it got to build she said nmmm well you are skinny so I'll put you as that! Lol! It's those little comments that...

That was meant to say wow! Lol! X

Write hub that it's amazing!! No wonder you can see yourself at target with results like that! Keep it up :) x

That :( after journey was supposed to be a :) !!

I think we all know that this and any other diet are only ones that you can do yourself so no matter how much you encourage your Mum she'll only do it when she it's ready or wants it enough. Keep up the encourage but always keep in mind you have your own goals and on your own journey :( Hope...

Hey hun how come its been cancelled?! Don't give in you are my thinspiration!!

Wow hun that looks amazing, well done. What a shame your Mum isn't being a bit more supportive :( like you say she had to help herself first so you can only try so much. You keep buy those clothes and keep feeling proud off what you have achieved, don't let anyone take that away from you x

Wow hun that's amazing, well done! You are doing so well!! I have more good days then bad so I suppose that's good?? I ate on Friday night and Sunday night but still hope for a loss this week or worse case Sts. I'm coming of plan this weekend as away for a hen weekend but plan to make wise...

Hey hun I know what you mean about struggling as you get closer to goal, so much harder to keep the motivation! In having that problem at the moment and didn't have a very good day Friday but how that 100% the rest of the time will make up for it. I am on week 21 and just want it done now, but...

The bite won't make a difference hun so just forget about it, it's done :) Well done on all the size 12s!! X

Have you tried the vegetable flavoring? I find it really helps especially when it's cold it's like having a cup a soup and you can have two mugs a day. I also like peppermint tea and drink loads of that!

Well done for sticking to it hun, it's hard at the best of times but with the weather the way it is at the moment doesn't help!! I find shopping helps! Lol! Well you have successfully completed another day, well done!!

Well done, sounds like you are doing fab! Size 10, what an achievement! I can't see on my phone but how much more do you want to lose?

Well done hun onwards and downwards! I've had to put last week behind me and move on too. Having a much better week this week so hopefully will have a good loss on Thursday. I have a friends hen do Easter weekend and would love to have another half a stone off by then... Probably to put it back...

You'll definitely have a fab loss next week so stay focussed and next weigh in will be here soon enough :)

Welcome back hun, good to see you!! I finally feel like I have my mojo back to after a couple a week or so if having bits here and there. We can do this :)

Well done on your loss hun, Feb to see you are losing the weight gain from hols :) I seem a bit on off at the moment, nothing major but I really need to rein it in as I don't want to undo any of my hard work! Getting weighed on Thursday, hoping 100% now till Thursday will hep me see a lots...

Thanks Lily, that's really helpful. I may just leave it there ready for when I get to 100lbs! Lol!

No never again the token fat one!! Yeah this week seems to be going much better, been on plan again properly since Monday and although had the disappointing weigh in on Thursday I'm sticking with this and getting to goal!! I just need to keep focused!! How are you getting on hun? Any plans...

Thanks all for your comments, they are really encouraging me and I know you are right :) Think I needed the gain to realise that I can't muck about on this diet and still get good results! I am well Bell in the zone now and looking forward to a good loss next week!! Even baked tonight for red...

Thanks missy :) I will not let this beat me, I have come too far to give in now! X

So the cheating caught up with me.... 2 lb gain and absolutely gutted!! Onwards and downwards tho, going to have four packs a day instead of three and a meal and hopefully that'll kick three loss again as I want 5lbs this week now. So back to basic, no cheating, no drops of milk here and there...

Good luck hun, you'll do that easy!! We are going to Manchester. Really looking forward to it as never been there before and the weekend should be a real laugh. So looking forward to getting dressed up for a night out with the girls and not look like the token fat one!! Lol!

Well done on the 2 lb hun that's fab. It's much harder and slower the closer you get to goal and I think that's just something we have to accept no matter how disheartening it is!! Great you are not struggling at all, makes life so much easier doesn't it?! I'm SS+ until 29 March when I go on a...

Thanks hun, I'll let you know :) Rachel x

Wow hun you have done so well! God's luck for weigh in tomorrow. I have mine in the morning too and have everything crossed to see the 12s!!

Hey Niki, how are you getting on? Have you decided on SS or SS+ this week? I've got weigh in tomorrow morning, not sure how I will get on as only five days since last weigh in and I think my bad week may catch up with me!!

Well done missy, that is fab!! You must be so pleased!! I had a bit of an puff week but have been 100% since Monday with weigh in tomorrow morning so not sure what the outcome will be.... Only 5 days since last weigh in too so we will see!! You're doing great :)

Hi, any colour other than natural means you are in Ketosis, the darker the colour just depends on how hydrated you are so if yours is dark it may be that you aren't drinking enough :)

Hey hun, are you coming back?? Hope you are doing ok? Just seen your message on fitness pal, thanks :)

Well good luck, that'll be of before you know it :)

Well done for starting CD!! The first few days will be the hardest but once you get the first week done its plain sailing!! Make sure you drink all your water and post on here as much as poss to keep you motivated :) Are you doing SS or SS+ ? How much do you want to lose in total? Good luck!!

Thanks Hun :) How's your week been? When's your weigh in? I'm seeing my CDC at 10 so fingers crossed! Won't be back on here until later today tho so will update you then xxx

Thanks missy, glad your week had been better and well done on the three days of SS,. That's something to be proud of!!! Weigh in for me tomorrow, not confident, but whatever it says I am not giving up, I we will get to goal!

Wow hun that's fab and such a brilliant motivator! We have just booked our summer holiday and I can't wait!! This year our holiday is going to be a completely different experience for me and I can't wait!!

Welcome back Niki :) well done for coming back and taking control again, you will bee back in the 10s in no time! Enjoy the weekend but make wise choices and low carb and then when you start Monday it'll be that little bit easier. I find having a diary on here really helps. I'll be following...

Wow hun you look fab!! Skinny minny!! You deserve all the lovely comments, lap them up and be proud of yourself x

Hey missy hope you are having a good week? Well done on the loss, it's going in the right direction! Hope this coming well is better for you. I have also struggled this week, but back focused now. Good luck :)

Welcome back!! Well congrats on the OHs job and the new house, I'm sure feeling settled with help with the diet too! You'll do great and the 8 months will fly by! I started in November and the time has gone so quickly and I am nearly five stone down :) Good luck!

Well done on resisting the eggs, I need some of your commitment at the moment!!!

I don't know really, maybe it is because I've let a few bits creep in and got away with it, but now I am just being silly and eating things for the sake of it! I'm only two stone off goal and I so want to get there, it's almost like I am self sabotaging but I don't know why.... I can't let...

Ah hun I know that feeling of food.calling, you're done well to resist! Hope they are better soon :) I'm really struggling!! Having good days and bad days and.today is a bad day.... Only two products but come home to wine and dips and crisps!!!!! My CDC said.to me about 'not opening the box'...

Btw Theresa the dress is warehouse, in the sale at the mo reduced from 80 to 30, result!!

Hey Pudge! You are so right about the slip ups not being worth it, the key is remembering that next time we are tempted! I suppose it's learning process and we will get better at it! You are doing so well And well done for resisting the pizza the other night!! X

Hey hun! Good to hear from you! Good luck with class on Thursday, make sure you let me know how you get on :) Two glasses of wine isn't bad at all hun but you're right in the fact that you shouldn't do it to please others. These things always seem like a good idea at the time and then we feel...

Happy birthday, have a fab and enjoy all the compliments :)

Thanks hun!! I definitely didn't eat as much as I would have done five months ago and tbh it didn't taste that good and made me feel ill last night and this morning. Anyway it's done now, onwards and downwards!! How's your weekend going?

Ah thanks ED such lovely words!! I won't dwell on the Chinese and look at the bigger picture! Here's to an awesome week and a great loss next week. You are doing fab hun :)

Today has been a good day:) cleaned house from top to bottom and then shopping in town with my sister and nieces and brought two dresses, just can't help myself! Lol! No Chinese tastes as good as looking in the mirror makes me feel at the moment. I know I still have a little way to go but I am...

Well done hun! Congratulations on the 14s!! I still have two stone two pounds to lose so much better than seven! Lol! You have done so amazing and will look sensational on your wedding day and it'll make the day even more special knowing the hard work you've put in to get there. You are a real...

Hey hun! Forgive me minis for I have sinned...... Had a flipping Chinese tonight!! Now in bed feeling ill :( Didn't have as much as I would have done before but I.don't know what's wrong with me at the moment. This feeling sick tho will stop me doing it again! So it's 4 week's until my friends...

Hey hun sorry to hear you are feeling so rubbish :( Do you still get weekly weigh in with CD? If so ditch your scales! Your weight can go up and down so much in one week and by stepping on and.off them in the week you are setting yourself up for a fall. I realised this about 2 weeks in so I got...

Thanks hun. Yeah I'm pleased with a lb and now we have also booked to go away end of.June so even more incentive to get to goal and maintain!! How are you getting on? When's your next weigh in? I may bake some more over the weekend but for family so will give it away mostly and I will not...

Thanks Theresa :) I thought this week.might be a slow week for me, but now I have 9 days to have an excellent loss! It must be hard bring in limbo but you know what to do and what not to do so have some confidence in your own abilities and choices. Don't let the limbo be an excuse to go off the...

Thanks :) Fingers crossed! Need to be 100% strict again...

So I lost 1lb this week. I expected this for two reasons..... 1, it's TOTM and I always seem to have a lower loss around that time due to water retention and 2, I've been picking at bits that I shouldn't! Not a lot just the odd bit here and there and I need to stop! Need to get to goal and be...

Thanks Sian :) I resisted them all day at work too! Weigh in tomorrow.... Not sure what the result will be but we're see :)

Hey Theresa! We'll it turns out I couldn't bake with out tasting!! I tried and the shortbread and cheese scone!! Does this mean that I am still going to struggle to maintain or does it mean that I am getting a bit cocky or does it just mean that's what life is going to be like maintaining...

Hey hun glad to hear you are still doing so fab! How much more do you want to lose? Hope you have a lovely birthday on Sunday x

You will def see a difference in the pics hun!! You should post some on here too! It does get harder the closer goal gets :( But we will get there... We have to! I've got some lovely dresses lately and won't be letting them go to waste! X

Hey hun! I typed answer to this earlier and it's not posted :( Other half loved the cake and so did everyone at work!! I plan to calorie count and exercise again. I'll do jazzercise twice a week and will start running again, I ran 5k about 2-3 times a week even when I was 17 stone so I'm quite...

How funny! I wondered why you weren't posting on yours but you did on mine! Lol! You are.doing so well!! Fabulous! I'm.going to be baking again tonight, the carrot cake went down a treat at work so tonight I am going to try choc and plain shortbread and cheese scones! I can.refrain from...

Morning everyone! The last few days I have let the odd thing here and there creep in and I just can't afford to do that, I need to stay focussed. So here's to a complete 100% day :)

Gosh hun hope you are ok?! You take it easy and make sure you are taking care of yourself. I've got a banging headache tonight but OH has gone to bed ill so I thought I would do some baking! Don't really bake as much as I would like and thought it would be a good hobby as long as I don't eat...

I know exactly what you mean!! Before I.started CD I always said I would be happy at being a size 16 and was.going to have a goal of 12 stone as that was the lightest I remembered being in my adult life. Now I know I want/can be a size 12 but as I am a 14/16 now it's easy to come a bit...

I have no idea! Lol! Lily, Theresa do with of you know? Amount of posts?? I know, May seems so close now, we've done so well. Have had a couple of wines tonight, dome popcorn, nuts and steak!! Harder as you get closer to goal to stay focussed and I can't let myself get away with the little...

Ah thanks Lily! I was just searching for her thread but I couldn't find it on my subscribed list... Maybe it's moved already? She looks so fab doesn't she?! What an achievement! I see you are doing fab too, well done. Love reading your diary :)

Ohh exciting I'll go take a peek! Family were really surprised today and it was lovely :)

Hey hub I know the feeling! I think it gets harder the closer you get to goal. You are looking and feeling great and I think it gets harder to say no to going out and socialising. We just have to remember if we stick with this, we will be at goal in May, can't believe that!! I know for a FACT...

Hi Pudge! I have enjoyed reading your diary and looking forward to following your journey. I have a diary on here too and find it really helps. Massive well done on your 7lb loss. That is fab! The time really does fly on this diet,I've been doing it 16 week's and it's flown by! You will...

Thanks for stopping by and thank God you'll still be around on here.... I wonder if because I subscribe to your diary I will still have it on my list once it is moved over??.... We'll see :) Off to Eastbourne tomorrow to see relatives some haven't seen me since I started CD so that should be...

Hey hun you will be fab and pleased yo hear you will still come visit! I'm sure SWs will speak to you! Lol and if they don't, their loss. CD is by no means the easy route and they should respect you for your determination and willpower that has got you where you are! X

Well weigh in this morning and another 4lb off.... So pleased and LOVE am weigh ins! Lol! So 5lbs away from losing 5 stone and then only another 2 to goal!! Very happy indeed :) Hope everyone else is getting on well this week?

Well done for getting back on track, when's your next weigh in? Fingers crossed you get your lie in tomorrow and your cold soon goes. There's so much about at the mo, my OH isn't well and I haven't felt 100% for a few days. Dad goes home early Saturday morning but I won't see him again now b4...

Thanks hun, I hope I at least stay the same and I know it'll come off next week :) How are you getting on? Having a good week? :)

So weigh in at 9am tomorrow and tbh any loss will suit me fine. It's been a bit of weird week food wise. Was out for a meal last Saturday, made wise choices and tried to choose everything that would fit in with my SS+ meal plus a couple of g&ts! Then my dad came home for an impromptu visit and...

Hey Theresa, I know it must have been a tough decision for you as you wanted to work up the steps, but you have to do what is right for you. You'll be at goal in no time and you can share your success of maintaining with us :) Just remember if it feels like it's not working or your eating is...

Hey hun how you getting on? X

OMG hun that's fab!!! What a great loss in a week, over 60lbs overall, awesome!!! Dad was so surprised how different I looked and he.brought me a dress as a.reward for doing so well, bless him! Size 14 from Episode!!

That's fab hun, pics of hair please!! I have some days when I am hungrier than others, usually round TOTM but it could be the bars or did you have enough water as I find that makes a difference? Hope you have a good Monday :) x

Don't apologise, it's great to hear you so happy! It's such a good feeling isn't it, such a sense of achievement! Check you out in your size 12s and getting in 8-10s too, must feel flipping great!!!! Sounds like we both have about the same left to lose, seems to achievable now doesn't it?! 7st...

Thanks hun, so.pleased :) How are you getting on? Was only thinking of you earlier :) Pic below of me in size 14 dress today for christening x.

Thanks hun :) If I'm having a bad day I go and get the trousers I kept from before I started the diet and try them on, it makes me realise how far I have come and really spurs me on, so glad I kept them!!

Thanks hun, really happy! Out tonight for brothers bday and had such lovely comments, people so surprised at how different I looked :) Cannot wait for summer, going to be such a different experience this year, how I look and feel is going to be miles apart from the old days :)

So weigh in this morning and 3lbs down!!! So happy with that!! Thought I would pop into Next on the way home and try on some size 14 jeans and see how far away I was from getting into them and they fit.... So I brought them!!! Lol! This is what happened when I went to try the 16s on and ended up...

Hi Tillyann, yes you can mix I.e half the.prawn allowance with half chicken :)

Thanks Theresa, I wouldn't take a leaf out of my book just yet as I am still hung up on the numbers! Lol! Think it's a work in progress!! :) I'll update tomorrow on WI!!

So I wore the dress to work on Thursday and got so many lovely comments! Don't think I have ever worn a dress to work before and people definitely noticed! So that was a highlight this week but I've had some low points this week.... Stupid moments when I've craved food that I shouldn't be...

Massive congratulations 4lbs is fab!! What a great loss so near goal! Can't wait.to be where you are :) xxx

Well....??? X

Good luck! Just posted on your diary before I saw this saying 7pm :) Bet you looked awesome in your skirt. I have some new.dresses but haven't worn them to work yet as it is so different to what I would wear its almost scary to wear them.... If that makes sense?!

Hey hun good luck for weigh in!! Fingers crossed for your 2lbs!!

Thanks hun! I see from your diary you are doing fab too! Well done sticking to just the water on your shopping trip! Been at sister.in.laws today as her bday and.there was pancakes, choc cake etc and I'm just not tempted!!

Wow size 10.... You are slim!!! You must have looked amazing, well done :) Wore skinny jeans and my new knee high boots tonight round to sister in laws for her bday and so many.comments about how slim I looked.... It feels great doesn't it!!

Hi Theresa, not too bad thanks, still got a sore throat making it painful to swallow but other than that I don't feel too bad. How's your week going? What time is WI? Excited for you! Let me know how you get on. Mines Saturday this week and even after the weekend extras I still want 3lbs...

Hey hun glad you are back on a roll!! The weeks will start to fly now I'm sure. Must feel nice to have that feeling back that you had before Xmas. Roll on May and getting to goal!!!

Funny you should say that, so many people greet me at the moment with hello skinny etc (don't get me wrong I like it) the other day our chief exc came in and said alright skinny and I laughed and.said isn't it funny how you never used to say alright fatty!! Lol! I like your point about not...

Well done hun thats fab, starting again on a level playing field, now plain sailing all the way to goal!! I do wonder sometimes if people say it as they are so used to us being the 'bigger' one and sometimes I think it can be their insecurity. The thing that makes me laugh is those that say it...

Wow amazing pics hun you've done so well!! Congrats!

Hi Theresa, hope you are having a good Monday? I'm feeling worse than yesterday and already in bed just chilling, catching up on here and watching TV :( So when is your next weigh in? Mine isn't until Saturday so plenty of time to drop a bit from the weekend, hoping for 3lbs.....

Hey Hun you are doing so well!! Well done on getting back on it after the binge for your birthday, I think that's part the battle! 14 weeks ago if I had been on a diet and gone away for the weekend I would over over eaten the whole time and then used it as an excuse not to diet for another...

How's things with you Susan? How much more do you want to lose?

Yeah I agree, it reminded me of how I felt pretty much every day 14 weeks ago and I don't want to go back to that! Got some lovely skinny jeans at weekend.so that has been yet another high for me!! being able to buy clothes like this keeps me going!! Have put another 20 items of...

Decided this week I'm going to.do four products a day rather than three and the meal, think that'll give me a boost after slight over indulgence this weekend :) Wish me luck!!

So the weekend away is over and back to 100% today. I enjoyed the weekend, didn't go crazy and now straight back on it. Only thing is feeling ill today, sore throat and ears, think I may be coming down with a throat infection but I hope not!! Time to get back into keotosis and be 100% until the...

So while hubby is still at the gym thought I would check in and update on yesterday..... Arrived at the hotel early afternoon and it's lovely. I had planned to stick totally to plan but.... Last night I had G&T'S, pretzels, pistachios, falafel, olives and millionaires shortbread!!! Did I enjoy...

Excellent ill head over take a look subscribe to it! Good luck! First few days are hard but if you stick with it I promise in a few weeks you'll feel like a different person!!

Hey hunny!! Meant to whats app you results last night but went straight to Chris and Jen's. Will def whats.app you over weekend :) In work this morning, finish at 12 :) xxx

Thanks for your message Kotch :) Yes it can.be tough but I promise you it's soooooo worth it!! Good luck with your journey, start a diary on here and keep us posted :)

Hi everyone! So 3lb off this week :) Still on target for goal in May and still seem to be losing well each week :) So away this weekend with OH, can't wait! Hope you all have fab 100% weekends, I'll probably pop by to say hello while chilling out at the hotel :)

Hi Theresa well done on your loss hun :) I commented on your thread too. You are bound to have a good result next week. I was hoping for a good result at WI tonight but not so sure now as feeling so bloated! We'll see!!

Well done on another lb off and being closer to goal! Last week I lost a lb and I know that it feels like it's not enough, but it's another lb you won't see again! I find if I have a slow week it catches up the next and like Lily said the closer you get to goal the slower it will be particularly...

Hope weigh in went well :) x

Thanks hun definitely need to feel recharged after 14 weeks of CD! Lol! When is your weigh in? I have.mine tomorrow after work, hoping for at least 3lb but what will be will be!

Good luck for WI tomorrow, can't wait to.hear how you've got on with it being your first week on SS+. I'm weighing Thursday evening and hoping for 3, we will see!

Well done Crazy on your 3lb loss, thats fab! I'm hoping for 3 this week and every other week! Btw way my last post meant to say DON'T let the scales rule your mood! Lol! X

Hey hun Happy Birrthday!! Well done for getting straight back on CD as you could have let the eating drag on. You enjoyed it and thats great, now time to get back on it! Lol! I'm sure once you get the first few days out of the way you'll be back into a routine and you'll probably have an...

Hi hun how are you getting on? Still focussing on your bday? X

Dinner looks yummy!

Thanks hun :) Good idea about seeing your doctor about counselling. In some of us there is obviously a reason other than being greedy that we turn to food. It's a mine field isn't it?! Food is always there as a constant reminder of what you are fighting against. At the end of the day we all...

So god knows what day I am but I know it's well over 80 now! Lol! This diet can really make you have mixed emotions. On one hand I am a bit bored now. The same routine every day just wanting to get through another day 100% and be closer to goal. Every weekend feeling like the same, no real...

Ah crazy sounds like you are having a tough time of it, but just think of everything you have coming up to look forward and how well you are doing.... And size 14, wow! Can't wait til thats me! Just in the 16s so hopefully not long now :) I'm not expect but I am sure it's possible you can still...

Ohh might start taking pics of mine too, we can all inspire each other!!

Ah thanks Kimberlee! I felt AMAZING!! This diet has really changed my life and as the rest of the weight comes off it's only going to get better!! Lol!

Thanks Lily I'll take a look! :)

Hey hun how are you getting on?

Thanks Yvonne and Theresa x Can you also tell me what is a ticker and how do I get one???

Hi Yvonne, sounds like you are doing great! Congrats on becoming a consultant too, I hope to be able to in the future too. I came off plan for my NYE meal and I found it really easy to get straight back on. Had two of my products in the day and.then a.three course meal (didn't eat it all tho)...

Hi Theresa, average at about 3-4lb, losses are good even on SS+ I've found :) If you plateau you can always have a.couple of weeks back in SS I think but I'm sure your losses will be.good :)

Well done Theresa you are doing great! I like having my little meal each day and loving the mousse too!! Here's to another 100% week :)

Wow you look amazing!!! Have enjoyed reading your diary and following your progress. I find having a diary really helps! Keep going you look awesome!

Well done Yvonne you are doing fab, keep going!! Off to.party tonight and attach pics below. If I'm honest, can't believe it's me!!!

Thanks hun, will upload pics tomorrow :) Thinking no g&t tomorrow and save myself for a couple next weekend when away with hubby!

Hey hun.you are doing so well. Well done on coming back to CD and getting it under control once and for all. Your comments on diary and reading yours has been a great help to me so thanks to you too!

Hi Chicky, just seen your pics, looking fab! What a difference!! Yeah I'm really not sure about the G&T tbh, think I will feel like I've let myself down if I do, but knowing that I can have one if I want will probably stop me having one! Lol! Think I'll save them for weekend away with the...

Pictures are fab, well done hun!!

Thanks.Kimberlee, thats very true!! I never thought for one second that I would do so well!! This diet is almost like the magic pill I had been looking for all those years!

So weigh in this morning and as I predicted a small loss of 1lb! I'm putting this down to three reasons, TOTM and extremely bloated, I had a big loss last week and weigh in was a day early. Think maybe it does you could go have a low loss every now and then to prepare you for working up the...

Thanks Theresa, I'll let you know how I get on! Hey Susan! How are you getting on, must pop over to your diary! Still doing SS+ which I've done since the beginning, supposed to be doing an 810 week this week but haven't hit that much each day.... Who.would have thought it! Lol! Sooooo hoping...

Hey Theresa well.done thats another fab loss and glad you have found a good CDC. I would personally record the weight as it is on your CDCs scales. I threw my scales out when I started this diet so I couldn't weigh myself in the week..... no distractions then!! That way you go by one set :)...

Thanks Theresa and Casswass! I was.so pleased with my 7lb loss last week! WI tomorrow morning and.not sure what the.results will be because as I've mentioned WI early and TOTM, but we will see :) Theresa, my consultant takes you on a.photo shoot when you get to goal, fab isn't it?! I have been...

Glad.the ideas are a help, to your and Theresa! Really good luck to both of you, I've still had good.losses on SS+ so I am sure you will too :) Congrats forgetting into the 12s, that is just fab, can't wait until I can.day that! WI Thursday and I really really hope to be in the 13s!!

Hi Chicky, sounds like yiu are doing great! When's your next weigh in? Those size 12s will fit perfectly in no time and then they will be too big!! I've been on SS+ since the beginning and I have still had really good.losses. I remember I said I.would.post some meal ideas so here's a...

Thanks Chicky! About to pop over to your diary to see how you are getting on :) Good luck tomorrow Exante, I'll check in.to see how you get on :)

It's Thursday morning this week as CDC is away at the weekend, it's usually a Saturday morning so a couple of days early... How about you?

Make.sure you keep us posted with moving up the steps. I'm definitely following this all the way through and doing each step. I'm on an 810 this week, but not quite hitting it each day, who would have thought! Lol!

Yep can't wait! CDC takes you on a photo shoot when you get to goal so I'll save them for then!

Yep do it, it's great! Wait for another 0 insertion fee on.eBay and get it all on! It's very liberating getting rid of stuff and it's great to see how far you've come! I've kept one pair of trousers and jeans from when I was at my biggest for when I am at goal and can stand in one leg! Lol!

Thanks hun. Just popped.across to your diary too, very good read and all really positive! Glad your OH Nan got her flowers in the end!! Just spent the evening putting all my 'fat' clothes on eBay, there is no way I am eating myself into them again!! X

Hey exante! Thanks so much for commenting on my diary and you just ooze positivity!! I'll be checking out your diary too! Hope your week four weigh in is a good one :) Wish I had done this diet years ago!! I never thought I had the strength to do something like this but it's amazing what you...

Thanks Susan! How are you? Still doing well? I'm doing 810 this week and then back.to SS+ after that, which I imagine will take me pretty close to goal before working up the steps! Over half.way now and.that is a good thought:) x

Thanks Theresa! You are doing so great too! I am loving the mousse and think I have mastered how to do it!! Good luck.for a big loss this week :)

Thanks Missy and thanks for coming to read my diary. I find the days and weeks fly by! Good luck for WI Wednesday x

I promise no matter what you have to.eat it will not give you the feeling you think it will. You are doing so well don't give in now, think of the bigger picture. CD is so quick it's short term pain hun and you are doing this for a reason, maybe many, remind yourself of those. I get such a high...

Wow.Theresa sounds like you are doing fab, keep it up! So close to goal too!

Having a really good weekend. Pottered round the house and cleaned pretty much everything! Have family over for tea tonight so cooking shepherds pie. I still live cooking, keeps me busy and I am not tempted.... I am definitely a feeder! Lol! Just tried a dress on that I brought a couple of...

Hi Missy! Wishing you lots of luck on your journey, looking forward to following your progress. I have a diary on here too and find that it really helps. Good luck :)

That's a brilliant.idea, always good to have.something to aim for! I still find it hard to imagine being a size 12 perhaps I should buy something in that size and have it hanging there as my motivation!

Hi hun how you getting on?

I had.to.change my WI to tonight because of the snow coming over night. Really wanted to get weighed tomorrow morning and be lighter but after my 7lb loss I don't care! Lol!

Hi Theresa. Good idea keeping busy today and keeping your mind busy too. You come across as a.strong person (anyone that can do this diet is strong!) and the giving up smoking will come in time too. Sorry to hear about how sudden you lost your Mum, that must have been so tough. I had some time...

Thanks I'll definitely experiment this weekend, got mint choc, cappuccino and strawberry for the MaM, nice to try something different x

Well done that's an excellent loss! X

Thanks Lily thats great advice :) I didn't mix the packet and MaM first which I think is the main problem and I.used less water than that too. Probably didn't mix for a whole minute either! I'll try getting the water ice cold too. Thank you! X

Well I'm on a high tonight! Just had weigh in and lost 7lb this week!! So happy!! Will update my stats on here once I get on the iPad! It.was 8 days since last weigh in and I only lost 2lb last week so I was.expecting a big number and I wasn't disappointed! Not bad for week 12! Lol!

Hi Theresa so sorry to hear your family news. I lost my Mum to cancer 10 yrs ago so I feel your pain. Keep strong and making the changes you are now and quitting smoking are all going to make you a.stronger healthier person. Xxx

OMG just tried the mix a mousse with the cappuccino....... Wowweee! Yum is all I can say although still don't think I blended it enough as still a few geletine lumps! Any tips anyone on how to best make it??

Hi Sarah, sounds like we have the same amount to lose in total. When I started this diet it seemed like it would take ages to lose that much and that I would never make, now I know that I WILL make it!! I'm half way to goal and it feels great! I found around the 2-3 stone mark is when people...

Thanks sarah, thats really nice of you to say :) I spent a while on here before starting my diary but I've found it's really helped, especially when I get lovely comments like yours! Wow, 2 stone, well done! Sounds like you're doing great! Do you have much more to go?

Thanks Sarah! How are you getting on? Do you have a diary on here? No.worries chicky, I'll have a.read through tomorrow and plan some meals, will give me a head start for next week! Xx

Thanks Chicky, lots happening this end! Lol! Yeah I'll post some meal ideas. I've been doing SS+ so will probably just expand.slightly in what I have already been eating. I'll get some ideas together and post them for you. Hope you are.doing well :)

Well done that's fab!!

Well day 80 today!!!! Not.sure how I've made it this far but I have!! WI Saturday and theh a week of 810 before I go back to SS for another 12 week's. Seems like an age but I know it'll fly by, just need to keep focussed :) No chance of not hitting my goal thats for sure!! Hope everyone is...

Thanks Theresa thats really kind of you :) Lots ahead in my life to look forward to and it's all going to be great going through it all a size 12! Positive thinking is key and I am a strong believer in everything happens for a reason! X

Thanks Casswass I am soooooo excited! I never EVER thought I could stick to this diet and 12 weeks in I know I can and it's the best feeling. I look better and better everyday (my head is getting huge!) and I can.see myself at goal. Trying the bridesmaid dress on today and looking so different...

Hi hun, drawing a line under it and moving on is the best thing you could have done, we've all been there, done that when it comes to throwing in the towel and causing severe damage rather than just drawing a line do well done. Colder weather is so much harder, roll on spring and summer I say...

Congrats on yet another fab loss and bring soooooo close to 4st loss!! It's in smelling distance and you should aim.for next weigh in but you know if it doesn't quite happen then it'll be the next week without a doubt! Well done you!! Well had the dress fitting today and....... It only bloody...

I'm a.bigger deliver in positive thinking!! We CAN and WILL do this :)

You'll soooooo enjoy that spending spree!!! It's the best feeling ever getting into smaller sizes, it gives me such a high that carries me through the day's and weeks of the diet! Hope the dress fitting goes well too thanks, will update tomorrow!!

Hi I've felt the same about alcohol. I was a right wine monster and.thought I would really struggle not having it, but I've found that I've hardly missed it!! Funny how when you take food and drink out of the equation you don't miss it as much as you thought you would!!

Ah thanks Theresa, thats really nice of you to say. Glad I have helped you in some small way in the way that you've helped me, I love coming on here and getting motivation and seeing people feel the same as me sometimes when things are hard, but we get through it, keeping the bigger picture in...

Wow thats a lot if replies! Lol! Hope you are.still doing.well today. These winter days seem to be hard, can't wait for spring..... We are going to look awesome!! Keep up the good work!

Sorry that should say Pinterest!

Hi Theresa I've felt the same today! I think it's boredom. The weather stopping us getting out and doing.things, I long for spring and summer! It'll get easier soon I am sure. I find.the following.things help: Online shopping Bath and bed Reading a book Reading minimins Sorting my wardrobe and...

Hi! Hope your overtime isn't too depressing! I'm hating the cold and.snowy weather but.still 100% on track! Good advice not to do the 30 day shred, you would prob find it would slow down weight loss as your body would probably panic and hold on to more fat! Xx

Thanks casswass!! I'm on such a high this morning!! Brought some more clothes.today, all in a 16 and.it.feels AMAZING!!! I so hope that dress does up on Tuesday, I'll let you know!! Life is soooooo good!!!

Well done angle thats a fab loss, you must be so pleased!! I've done some more shopping this morning and getting into smaller sizes is the best feeling EVER!!! You'll soon be back in your smaller sizes again! I am a.fan of the bars, like malt, peanuts, mint choc and the lemon, love having...

Yummy you haven't ruined anything!! Get straight back on that horse. Stop eating NOW and minimal if any damage will be done. Be strong, pick yourself up and carry on. Good luck x

Evening girls! So weigh in tonight, a day early due to weather and I have lost another 2lbs. Initially I was a little disappointed as I am aiming for 3lb a week but then I looked back over the last 11 weeks and I have lost 47lbs!!! No way in my wildest dreams did I ever think I could do that and...

Wow.well done hun thats fab, great two week loss! I lost another 2lb this week's, was hoping for 3 and was a little disappointed until I realised I have lost 47lbs in 11 weeks and my weigh in was a day early! Keep at it, you'll be sliding down the 11s!

Thanks Angel! It's feels great and I can't.wait to be under 200.... Maybe at WI tomorrow but ig not then def next week! God I love this diet, should have done it years ago! Hope everyone is having a good week x

Wow.thats amazing! Well.done!!

Hi Angel. When I started CD 11 weeks ago, I read your diet start to finish and was so inspired!! So glad you are back so I can.follow your progress again and watch you succeed just like you did last time. I also have a.diary on here and hopefully in the months to come we will both be posting on...

Wow hun well done!!

Hi! I had the same bathroom problems a few weeks ago and the docs have given me sachets called laxido. You can take when you can't go (just mix with water) and then you can take daily if needed to keep you regular! Hope this helps. Have enjoyed ready your diary :)

You'll have a fab week hun and certainly don't see last week as a failure, you've lost a bag and a half of sugar!!! Thats heaps!

Hey Casswass thought.I.would.pop over and say Hi! Thanks for commenting on my diary! I promise after the first week and an excellent way in things will be so much easier! I am 11 weeks in and the time has flown! I love the original porridge more than the flavoured ones, chicken and mushroom soup...

Thanks guts it's great to know we're all here to cheer each other on!! I'm sure my friends and family are getting.sick of me going on.about CD! Lol! How you getting on this week? Xxx

Also maybe up your water to at least 3ltrs, that'll help too x

Well.done on the loss, a loss is a loss and the inches lost is fab! It's perfectly normal to lose inches rather than weight and I bet next week you'll have a big loss, our bodies work in mysterious ways! Dont let this get you down, keep going just as you are :)

Well done on the fab loss hun! No idea how your CDC couldn't be more supportive, I would LOVE 4.5lbs this week! You are doing fab :) x

Soooooo excited, size 16 on today, tight but on and done up!! Pics attached..... So happy!!!

Well done hun, 5.5lbs that's great!! To be lower than pre holiday weight is ace too!! It must so hard to get back into it and you have done great :) I realised today that although I have done 10 weeks I still have about 16 weeks to go (at 3lb a week) and that seemed a bit daunting but once we...

Hi guys I'm doing.really good this week :) Wore the skinny jeans and boots yesterday and felt fab! Such good comments from family too! Every day is a step closer to goal and I'm loving it! So much on this year and to be slim for!! How are you doing Susan? Back on track after hols? Casswass, the...

Mmmm the mousse sounds nice, haven't.tried that yet, may get some at next WI. I got another lemon yogurt bar this week and they are lovely :)

Hi! You'll weigh different throughout the day and it can vary anything up to 4lbs! I ended up throwing my scales away and just.going by CDC scales and I'm excited before every weigh in and nothing gets me down in the week as I am no longer hopping on and off the scales, try it, it's very...

Well done hun and.good for you! You aren't doing this for anyone else other than yourself so you can set your own goals, regardless of what other people say. Those that say it's bad probably don't know anything about it.... You can do.this!!
