Here we go! Looking to see if anyone wants to join this thread to keep each other motivated. I'm starting 5th January 2015 and determined to stick 12 weeks to get to goal. Looking forward to hearing if anyone is in the sane frame if mind.
 
Hi MsJH yes i have just joined this site as im starting CD new years day for my wedding in april im pretty scared tbh as i am a gannett and i hate being hungry so hopefully we can help each other :) i have 3 stone to lose but id be happy with 2 stone how about you? I have my CD consultant coming new years eve and im so determined to do it ive been scoffing over xmas to gwt it out my system but i just want 2sstart the diet now!
 
Hi all- good luck for jan! I'm 12 weeks in - about to have my first add a meal week ( up to step 2) next week and then back to ss for at least 12 more weeks- would love to be at goal by then but suspect it will be another meal week and then 12 more SS, as still have 5st to go.
 
Hi all, delighted your going to do it too! I did it about 3 years ago and list an amazing 4 stone felt amazing and just slipped back to my old ways! Determined to do it I've got 3 stone to loose so we will motivate each other. Xx
 
Glad to hear im not alone!! Bessieb your weight loss is so good im so glad to see it can wok is the diet hard?? I really want to stivk to it
 
My friend has just lost 3 stone i 7 weeks on it too it's very encouraging i have read so many forums so im quite prepared i know i need to get past 1 week and ill feel ok once in ketosis my work colleague put me off slightly as last year she lost 4 stone but in2 her 2nd month her hair started to fall out which ive read can be a side effect but if you take the hair skin and nails tablets its helps apparently im 5 ft 4 amd 11st 8 so need to lose 2.5 to 3 stone for my wedding as its in cuba in april! Im very very unhappy since i had my daughter and i was 9st 8 when i met my partner 5 years ago and i feel so big :( but if i can get this weight shifted ill feel a lot better it actually gets me that down that i wont shop for clothes or i avois going in nights out because i feel so fat its not good.
 
Skellybob I know exactly how you feel it really does get you down but just think you'll be a new person for the big day!
 
Yea i hope so!! What makes it worse is my step.mum is the same height and 8 stone and going shopping with her welll... it literally made me come home and cry so i thought no thats it new year im gonna do it! I really am scared tbh i get so hungry and im just awful and moody if im hungry so i need some will power otherwise ill just give in! But i actually havent got a choice as my wedding dress comes soon and ive not lost anything! So i wont fit in it! and also im scared of getting the dizzy spells as im on my own with my daughter and dont wanna pass out as my fella works away!mind u i work in doctors so im in the right place if i do it at work loool!
 
And i forgot to say that's incredible losing that amount before how long did it take you to lose that?? Did you find it hard? So weve got about the same to lose then i cant imagine losing 4 stone you must have some serious will power :) hope u can lose what u want this time round too!!
 
Hi Skellybob- is the diet hard? Yes and no is the answer for me- I find the first week tough but after that it has been really easy- I was determined to stick to it 100% - for me being healthy and slim has been more importants than meals out etc- I have been away with friends for 4 days , out with dh for the odd meal , birthday , kids parties and xmas and for all of them I have just sat and had my shake while others ate- no one has made a big thing of it and I have still enjoyed myself.after that first week I haven't felt hungry or tempted, so that's the easy part. I know if I went off plan I would struggle to get back on. on the other hand have a look for angelupnorth s diary in the diary section- ( 6 stone off and 6 stone on again). She has kept us going with her will power and motivation and has worked around days out/ weekends away etc by having planned days . No dizzy spells either- think the trick is to make sure you are drinking enough water( but not too much!)

my hair falls out a bit on this diet too - did last time and has started too again this time- but grew back last time no problems and no one noticed any difference.
 
Hi everyone

I have 5st to loose in 2015 so will be great to join this thread.

Smelly Bob - what rare the tablets called that stop your hair falling out?

Hi there

i'm starting on 2nd Jan - all booked for my lovely consultant to call around and go go go!!!

Will be great to encourage each other :)

Hi all, I'm starting on the 5th Jan too. I've already had my consultation and weighed in at 13 stone but expect to have gained a few more pounds since then :0(

I did lighterlife a few years ago and have gained it all back in one year after starting a desk job and spending over 2 hours a day driving to and from work.

I think weekends will be the hardest part for me as we normally go to the pub on a Friday & Saturday. It's actually a sailing club and my daughter gets to spend time with her friends so it wouldn't be fair to stop going. Lots of black coffee I think!

Thankfully I've overdone it so much over Christmas that I'm sick of food so I'm sure that will help lol
 
Hi miss greedy good luck ny consultation is on new years eve so doing first day new years day! Let ua know how you get on and what your weigh in is im dreading mine pigged out so much over xmas :/ but so looking forward tp the break from food think this forum will give me the will power i need as i know im not alone
 
Hi claire i know i feel the same sick of food this week feel sick now but still eating getting my face filled before new year youll have to stick to the coffee and not the pints lol but itll be good if u can resist and still go to the sailing club then you know youll be able to go out and resist anything! Im gonna really struggle i know i am :/but i am putting my heart into it im guessing ill be weighing in just under 12 stone by the time ive finished eating so ill let you know how it goes only a few more days left i actually just want it to come now! Ive gotba calender too that i can cross off the days im hoping by visually seeing how many says ive done in a month will keep me motivated don't know if itll help though lol. I hope you lose your weight again how much do hhave to lose??
Dani x
 
Hi Dani. I'm liking the idea of the calendar :)

My consultant says 10 stone is ideal weight for me so that makes 3 stone. I have all the stuff ready but I'm having Christmas with my 10 year old daughter this weekend (she spent Christmas at her dads) and I don't want to ruin it by having a soup and her a proper dinner. I've decided to follow atkins low carb from tomorrow so I can still have the Christmas dinner and she won't notice that all I have is meat and lots of veg. Very tactical lol. It means I'll be in ketosis for the 5th when I start and hopefully lose a couple of lbs too!

How much have you got to lose? x
 
I have a consultant coming out today. Haven't decided when to start yet... do I wait for the 1st or just get started.... tough decision!
 
Hi mic118 id wait until new year and enjoy new years eve :) fresh start then lol. And claire ye that's a good idea :) defo do the calander too girls i think seeing it will make it easier. If i can get to 10 stone too il be happy but im pretty small i want to do 9 stome so i hace room to put the pounds on in cuba for my wedding lol
