I've done various diets and fads over the past 2 years, but this is the one that seems achievable. I've ideally got 5.5 stone to lose...that's a long way off though.
How much are you looking to lose?xx

Oh I see. What else have you tried?
I would like to lose a stone then when I get there see if I am happy with that. To begin with I did want to get back down to what I was when I first met my boyfriend but I was 7.3 then and think that's a bit too much! Xx

I tried the tesco version of slimfast, then calorie counting then a total shake diet. None of them worked haha!
the lowest I remember being was 8.13 but I was way too skinny then and you could see like every bone. So I'm just going to see how I go xxx

Can I ask how tall you are? I'm only 5ft so every 1lb I put on looks and feels like a mountain! My partner always says if I was taller I wouldn't look like I've put on so much weight, and I'm Beth curvy too and it all seems to go to my hips, its weird as my bra band size has stayed exactly the same as it was when I was 14!

I loved my body when I was 7.3, saw nothing wrong with it, felt so confident! I said I'd love to get back to that eventually and everyone told me I look so much healthier now, but I still want to lose some for my own self confidence.

Hello the caretaker. Thank you
. Wow, that is a long commitment! Well done on deciding to become a consultant, I'm sure it will make your weight loss journey a whole lot more motivating, also knowing that you ate helping others along the way. Can I ask how much you have lost and plan to lose? Also, do you allow yourself the odd naughty day/weekend if you have plans or special occasions? And does it make a difference at all to your loss? X

Yeah, it's whatever you feel best at.
I'm not doing too bad. It's actually a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. Yourself?xx
Hi I'm new too. Had binges all weekend and back on track today. I have 2 stone to lose.Im doing the extra easy plan but losses are slow and with lots of recent events and down days iv been turning alot to food recently. I over eat on the extra easy diet, and eat alot carbs and load my plate like a mountain. I'm going to start cutting down on carbs this week, and I'm going to eat 60g with each meal to see if that works. You finding the same ? Xx
