Hi I'm Jackie. Last year i lost 3 stone 4lbs in 10 weeks with CD and maintained until December when i partied a bit too much and have gained a few lbs (enjoyed it though!!) I have still a stone and a bit to get to my final goal and am on day 2 of SS+. I'm hoping i can crack it this time after a few pitiful attempts at re-start. I have a mantra in my head that's it's only gonna be for about a month - I hope that can see me through!!

Hey guys,
My names Mej, Im 24 and weigh 14.04 eeek! I decided to follow CD because primarily of the sun newspaper. They have a fit squad section every monday,which features weight loss success storys. Me being the sherlock that I am, noticed a pattern emerging! Almost every person that featured had started on CD....so was totally worth looking up!
I loved the idea of "not having to think" on this diet-you eat what you have and dont deviate!! perfect!!
Im on day 2 of SS and finding it really bloody.....EASY!!! I swear I must be going wrong somewhere along the lines...after reading all these "first 3 days" horror stories,im thinking I must secretly being absorbing some carbs through my skin or something, because so far its been a total breeze....Should be thankful really, but panicking just a tad.
My main reasons for losing weight!:
-Not to be the fat chick in my gang of girlies
-Lose some of my hefty basooooms-(36GG)
-Show the ex's new bird that im not the "fat tramp" she so eloquently called me over facebook-classy chick....
-Clothes.Clothes.Clothes.Clothes.oh and more Clothes!!
-My current squeeze always eyes up skinnier girls (dosnt help that he owns a strip club really...hmmm-makes me feel like sh*t really. Want him to eye up ME!!!! Is that too much to ask for.....
-Millions more!!!

Well Day 2 today, all is ok apart from I feel like I have no energy whatsoever, but on the plus side I got weighed this morning & have lost 3lb already.

Had over 4litres & 1 pack, came home from work & I admit I ate 2 toffee quality street & I feel SO GUILTY about eating them, Never felt any guilt if I cheated last time I done CD, maybe my head is getting in the right place now..

So no more picking now..

I do HAVE to have skimmed milk in my tea/coffee so I suppose I am doing ss+

Everyone seems to be doing fab, How bout every week we do a water challenge to keep us going with the H20..

Is anyone watching that clair sweeney Junk food challenge tonight, should be interesting..

I started at 15.7, I did get down to 12.3, which is my lowest weight for a long time, I felt fantastic, I have been on & off the diet a few times over the past couple of years.
I do find it hard as I just love to eat & me & keith love nothing more than to eat out.

I weighed in yesterday at 13.8, so really wanna get down to 11.7, the lowest ever for as long as I can remember.

so in total 4st loss if I smash my 2st target..

Good Afternoon Peeps.

Well Got weighed this Morning, I have put 4lb on over Xmas, Which isnt bad considering..

1st Day of CD I have had 1 tetra & nearly 4 litres of water, feeling ok-ish.. Just had a huge belly rumble but its sooooo getting ignored, I will Drink & Drink some more..
I do feel like I am brewing a headache though as I always do, if not today defo tomorrow..

But feeling positive & looking forward to my 1st weigh in, think I will write a set of goals to keep me motivated..

So nice to see more people joining in, I know with the support we can achieve our goals..

Hugs.. xxx

Thats not too bad then Kel. I lost 8.5lb last night which is great considering it wasnt a full week.

Hiya Kel

Just wanted to say good luck! I'm working my way back down again - I put on over 2 stone over the Christmas period, and I really hope I can jump back on the bandwagon again and get down to around 12 and a half stone! If I can get any lower I'll be over the moon! Good luck with everything - and I know what you mean about eating out - it's a nightmare - but you've gotta love it! Hehehehe!

 

[myrtlemoo]

Ohhhhhhhh I'm so proud of me right now!!! Btw - well done to all on losses, verrrrrryyy impressive! Won't know how much I've lost on week one officially as going by my own scales, hopefully will have lost whatever I put on over Christmas though!

OK... back to the being proud thing... friend going through a rough time at the mo and asked me to meet her for lunch to have a natter. I had my soup before I left work... and had a glass of water while she had her lunch! In fairness to her, she offered to wait till she got home to eat but I told her not to. Real sense of achievement not having picked or fallen off the wagon!
