Thought I would start a good diary to keep me on track. I have just joined SW online, and so far so good. Took me a few days to get the hang of it, but in getting there lol. Breakfast - 2 weetabix (heb) / semi skimmed milk (hea) / raspberries Lunch - sausage pasta & tomato sauce (4 syns) /...

Thanks!! Aw right now I feel like not even going, I found the perfect dress, it was stunning but I think I was just kidding myself now it's sunk in that I just can't wear it. I've just looked online, I hate going shopping with a passion because the minute I try something on & it doesn't fit I...

Stressing out big time. 8 weeks til the wedding in going to and I'm trying to find a dress. I had found one months back but after looking at it constantly I've decided I no longer want to where it. I've got it into my head that it won't look nice because I'm not skinny. This is so stressful...

Went & done the weekly shop yesterday and forgot all about my slimfast!!! What an idiot! Although everything were having for tea this week is recipes from slimfast and a couple of low cal ready meals! I weighed myself yesterday and lost 6lbs this month so pretty pleased with myself! Going to try...

I don't know how to copy and paste, using the app on my phone! Just weighed myself & I've lost 6lbs this month, so close!!

Yeah I never thought of that. I've been thinking of the pros and cons of both of them and think ill give slim fast a bash. What have I got to lose? Apart from 6 stone of course lol!! Aw the bingo wings are just depressing, I've got a wedding to go to in 8 weeks and the dress I want to buy...

Hi belle, how's things? I've been terrible on my "diet" lately, not been in the right mindset. But as of Friday the 1st march I will be back on track, changing to slim fast this time. Hoping I can do well on that. I was thinking of trying exante, but the thought of no real food makes me think I...

Oh yeah I've heard about them. Might give them a go, I've seen an ad for them in the sun beds near me! I'm going to start slim fast next week once I so my shopping. At least it's only 2 shakes a day and I can have food aswell, if it was just shakes I'd never last! Xxx

I'm undecided tbh. I really want to give juddd a proper go but I think with having an UD it will throw me, I have no will power!! Aw I love swimming but I can't bring myself to go, unless a local swimming pool was specifically for the fatties, lol!! What's flabelos? Xx

Not been on here for a week or so, and not been sticking to plan at all. Lost all motivation again. Going to give slim fast a go, since I've got a whole tin to use up. Can anyone give me some good exercises to get rid of my bingo wings? Can't flap my arms too much before I take off lol!!

Went back on the scales this morning, still 15st13lbs which is good considering I've not stuck to plan the past 2 days. Received some awful family news so only had a packet of sunbites yesterday and don't think ill be on plan today either. Hopefully get back into the swing tomorrow

Not too bad, dd today and stuck within the 500 calories. I was so hungry this morning and I'm never hungry in mornings so I did have some chocolate and a packet of crisps, but only had a yoghurt for lunch and had nothing since. Too tired to even make something for dinner now!! Aw really? Maybe...

Oh no I hope I don't get bad headaches!! Was an UD for me today but don't think I had 1954 calories, but then gain its surprising how quickly they add up!! How did u get on today? Xx

I got a bad headache last night aswell, are these common when on the juddd diet?? Xx

I do think the scales were wrong, I surely can't have lost 7lbs in two days?! Although I stood on them this morning and I'm 15st13lbs, but, I am in the 15s still so happy about that! I'm sure you will get there! How long have you been doing juddd? Xx

Hi SaraJane, I am only on day 2 of juddd! How are you finding it? I done my first DD today so the only bit of advice would be to drink plenty water! X

First DD done and dusted. I must admit its been hard not to pick at food today but its been easier than what expected. I didn't have breakfast this morning and for lunch I had a chicken salad sandwich and a bottle of fresh orange (490cals in total) did go over by 99 calories but not too bad for...

It's not been too bad today, made harder with everyone from work going on and on and on about how I won't last & offering me food!! I did go over my calories, only by 99 though so not all bad! I'm doing 8-8 so I can't wait til that clock strikes to have a wee bowl of cereal!! Xx

I can't see me doing well on my dd tomorrow, i had planned to do 6-6 but I didn't finish work til 6 and when I got home the OH had cooked me dinner so I'm going to try 7-7 instead. Hope ur sore head cleared up! X

Okay, so I don't know how I've done this but I weighed my self on Friday, and I was 227lbs, weighed myself this morning and I'm 220.4!!! Kept coming off and going back on them haha!! But all I can say is IM IN THE 15s!!!!!!!! Woohoo!!!! Anyways, today is day 1 of juddd, UD today so I'm sure...

Yeah x

Had planned to have an early dinner tonight and have a short fast (6pm til 6am) then start my first proper UD tomorrow, but it didn't quite go to plan. Just finished my roast dinner & now my tummy feels like its ready to burst!!!!! Ouch! On the plus side it was the best roast I've cooked, even...

I know what u mean, I had a chippy last week and felt terrible after, it's not as if I eat them constantly, it's annoying that wee guilty feeling afterwards, especially when I really enjoyed my treat!! Ohh I love McDonald's I could eat them all the time!!!! X

I had planned to have a short fast, between 6pm tonight until 6am tomorrow, then start my first UD tomorrow, but that's out the window as I've not long put my chicken in the oven! Oops!! Xx

Hi belle, I've just downloaded MFP on my phone, I thought I already used it but I was using the calorie counter from FatSecret! Xx

Yeah in a private nursery, I work with the babies (0-2yrs) so it can be quite demanding!! I'm the same with the 16 stone, been there for ages can't seem to get away from it!! Xx

Yeah i think 391 will be a struggle, but I can only try and if its not for me I will up it. I dont do any exercise at all, I am on my feet alot during work but nothing major, just walking around lol. xx

Yeah, I'll be the same, 6-6. Im starting on an UD tomorrow, so trying not to eat too much today!! You do get so used to being very cautious of what you eat, panicking over points and syns! If only losing weight was as easy as putting it on!! xx

im not too bad in the evenings, im normally really tired from work (looking after 15 babies is hard going!!) so I dont usually have the energy to even cook dinner, and if the OH doesnt cook it then we dont have anything. Im excited for first weigh in already and i havent even started yet lol, Im...

I have read about that too, and Im jumping on the bandwagon!! 6pm-6pm, luckily for me I work 7:30am-6pm so the majority of the 24hours I will either be sleeping or working, so hopefully its not too much of a struggle. xx

I will be jumping for joy if I get there in the first week!! The website said for my first two weeks, my DD should be 391 calories, slightly unsure whether to stick to what it says, or just start with the 500. Thinking its maybe best for the 391cals, might speed up the weight loss a bit! I...

Hey nyssa, is a vlcd like lighter life etc? the shakes and soups? A couple of girls at my work did them, and one of them lost about 2stone, I tried a couple - tony fergusson, opti slim, but I literally lasted about 6 hours, they were yuck!! Not to my liking at all!! Ive been on diets for years...

Ive been floating between 16 - 16.5 for as long as I can remember now, before I had my eldest (she will be 6 in June) I was 11 stone. I recently looked out an old photo, from about 7/8 years ago, and I used to hate how big I was then, and looking back at it i was like "omg, when was I that...

Yep, far too easy!! I'll just have to keep myself preoccupied with other tasks, I'll opt to change all the pooy nappies as long as I can stay away from the food lol! I have a wedding to go to at the end of April so Im hoping to see a good weight loss by then! xx

Thats great though, anything is better than a gain!! Im feeling quite positive about it so fingers crossed I do okay. I work from 7:30am-6pm, so at least the majority of the time I will either be sleeping, or at work so shouldnt be too hard. My downfall is, I work with children and they have...

thats great, well done!! I cant wait to get into 15stone, its been so bloody long!!!!xx

Aw thank god for that!! I only ever drink diet irn bru, never water.. unless its the first day of a new diet and im trying to convince myself that I can drink loads lol! How much have you lost doing JUDDD?

well done! x

Eeek, tomorrow is the big day!! Im starting on an UD though so and been using MFP for ages now so I dont think I'll go over my 1954cals. From 6pm tomorrow night until 6pm Tuesday will be the challenge, but luckily I'll be at work for the majority so it shouldnt be too bad. Going to go get some...

Hi Belle, Im just starting this plan aswell. When I entered my details on the site it said my DD is 391 and UD is 1954. I think Im going to stick to the 391cals on my DD for the first two weeks (if I can manage it lol) then up it to 500. Good luck!! x

A girl at my work was doing it, but never mentioned the name of it and I thought it was just a diet she had thought up herself lol. She was always saying to me "You should try the one I was on" and I kept thinking aye, ok!! Never gave it a second thought until now! x

thanks hun, I can already tell you will be very supportive! Thank you!! I entered my details in the JUDDD website, and my DD cals is 391 and UD is 1954. I think I may stick to endless cups of Twinings Honey & Ginger on my DDs lol!! xxx

thanks! I think I done it right lol hope so anyway!! xx

Hi guys, hoping I've done this right (!?) Starting JUDDD on Monday (4th Feb) and hoping to loose around 6stone altogether. Im quite looking forward to it, I've been reading other diaries and read about some great losses!! Initially, Im sure Ill struggle with the DDs but at least I can say to...

I am very much looking forward to my Nandos, luckily the girls I work with and my bf are very supportive and since doing SW I have been refusing food too (which is something I never really would do!!!) No I dont have one, how do I make one? Lol Sorry, so terrible with computers!!!! xx

Im new to this diet, and love a challenge, so count me in! I feel 14lbs may be too much for me since I will just be getting to grips with it, so I'll go for 8lbs. (apologies if I dont copy this right, im not so good with computers!!!) Teetiefunk 14lbs (0lbs lost 14lbs to go) Eatlessweighless...

That is one of the factors why I havent joined properly, lol. Ive decided to officially start Monday, I am hoping it works but I am dreading my first few DD's, I think I'll struggle. I have made a plan to keep me on track of DDs and UDs and made sure I have an UD on Saturday as Im going for a...

I am going to officially start Monday instead, hoping not to stuff my face too much until then, well hoping not to lol!! x

Hi all, I have been reading loads on here about the JUDDD diet and have decided to give it a go. I have been following SW for a few weeks now, but not joined properly so Im finding it a bit difficult now, and for some reason the past few days all I have wanted to do is stuff my face!! I think it...

Ive been reading through your diary, and after your great weight loss on JUDDD I am seriously considering trying it. I am going to start next Friday, (once the cupboards are empty!!) and start on a DD. Ive read people do from 8pm-8pm, so if I did that, (silly question here) does that mean from...

Im currently following SW just now, not joined properly though, waiting til payday. But Ive came accross this and now I am stuck. SW or JUDDD!? JUDDD seems too good to be true, lol

thanks! I only used about a tsp of butter. It fed the whole family (4) and was decent portion sizes. Ive not joined SW yet, just know the kinda basic ins and outs, so trying to figure out syn value is a bit tricky lol and Ive not had my hexB today so Ill use the olive oil for that

Hi all, I have cooked a sweet potato and chicken hotpot for dinner tonight. I got the recipe from Sainsburys, and was wondering if anyone could tell me roughly how many syns? Thanks. 1 onion, roughly chopped ½ x 400g pack basics mushrooms, sliced ½ x 600g pack basics peppers, sliced 1 x 241g...

2lbs off this week. Better than what I thought considering I have had a McDonalds and a Pizza Hut this week!!

I am also following SW, not going to class or online, lack of funds from xmas!! Good luck with the weight loss! x

thanks! found one to lose a stone by valentines! fingers crossed!! Im hoping I can stick to it this time, every second week I start a new diet, never lasts, this time must be different lol! xx

Apologies if I dont post this right, I am the worst with computers, lol! ShredFanSW 14lbs 0lbs lost 14lbs to go happy&healthy 14lbs 1lbs lost 13lbs to go sexyfor2013 14lbs 0lbs lost 14lbs to go Countrycottage 14lbs 0lbs lost 14lbs to go AndreaEK 14lbs. 3lbs lost 11lbs to go Auburn 14lbs...

Thanks lotty28 and babytreetrunk89! I used to write a food diary years ago and that always helped, so i think ill take your advice and do it on here, I wont properly be starting til Friday, so fingers crossed I can start to retrain my whole opinion of food before! Where do I find these...

I am the exact same. Constantly huffing about my weight but only ever last a couple of weeks trying to do something about it. I lose motivation very quickly, espeicially if i cant feel or see results. Not this time, this IS it for me. Although, its always difficult when your OH comes back from...

Well done!! x

Im also new to Minimins and doing SW again. Although I may be a bit out of touch as I havent ever joined properly, just got all the information from a friend!! Good luck with the weight loss! x

Hi everyone :) Im just new to Minimins, and also starting SW for the second time. Im just doing it at home, as I work long hours & wouldnt have time to go to classes, but hopefully I can still shift this weight. I am hoping to lose 6stone 3lbs by this time next year. I have a wedding to go to at...
