Thanks hun ?
It's so bad! And the staff canteen having cooked breakfasts etc is killer but the free tea keeps me going!
Day 4 today 100% and I'm really pleased. Best I've managed in a long time. Was meant to be at a charity award dinner tonight and was really dreading it as didn't wana come off plan. Thankfully I got out of it,
I have swollen glands and think something is going on with me but I'm so determined to get on with it. Feeling ill and doing nothing about being unhappy with myself is much worse than being ill and knowing I'm making a difference lol
How u doing hun?

Hey pops!! My feet are falling off me lol not used to all this standing about! Saying that tho I guess it's kept me focused on plan I just seemed to get on it on Monday and uve been good since and it hasn't even felt like an effort. I'm out on weds for a friends bday and it's just her and I so I cnt really just not go but I've my focused head on and I'm planning on being good! Then a night out at the start of October as my best friend moved to Liverpool 6 months ago and this is the 1st she will be since so I'm looking forward to that! Maybe won't be so good! Lol
Then that will be me on plan again until November when I fly to Southampton to meet my beautiful friend Ria (crazydiamond) that I found here on minimins
I will be half on plan when there and then it's straight bk on it untilChristmas of course!!
How are u doing pops? Sorry for my rant lol xxx

Celebrated my 3st success with a Chinese. Not a good move!! But hey ho, realized that I can eat like that any more, made me bloated for two days and I didn't even have rice!!!
I know what you mean about life, been there to. Although this is the first time I've take my weight seriously.
Sending hugs xx

Hey Martha,
Just a quick pop by to say well done with your losses so far. It's difficult getting back to it, esp. after great losses before. I managed to loose 3 st on Dukan plan but let life get in the way of proper maintenance. This time, I needed to really get back to basics, and CD offers me that. Along with working up the steps, i'm using this as an opportunity to get my life in order and am seeing this as the final straw, and last diet i'll have to do!
Well done on the new job! xx

Hey Martha,
Well done for focussing on the positives - keep looking forward to those clothes and you'll soon forget about food! I've a pair of jeans i'd like to fit into in a couple of weeks - going to dig them out tonight for inspiration! Luckily/unfortunately, my wardrobe has a three size range and I am hoping to get into those smaller sizes soon!
I'd like to loose another 3-3 1/2 stone - that's the plan anyways. I put all my Dukan losses back on (and more) so am hoping to beat my lowest on that diet...only another 2st to go!

Strong women stay slim
dropping in too see how your doing Martha , you seem like your doing well , yes be nice to have a choice of clothes , reminded me of going into the shop (yours) in July with no aircon on and sweating and grabbing 5 pairs of trousers to look at myself and think OH NO, how has this happened .... the mirrors were wide and long too ...
Im back and wanting to change ... how has it been for you ?
Pops hi, was the thought of the Chinese better than it tasted ? I always think of foods while on VLCD and the longer I'm on plan I still thin k of a food and yes I have carried it out but it wasn't as good as the thought .... 3 stones is great !
