I am going xmas shopping today for the kids but I am also going to have a look at a dress for Xmas. It's going to be a bit difficult when it comes to actually buying one as I don't know what size I will be come Xmas week but if I leave it that long they won't have any. I suppose I will just have to guesstimate it and hope for the best. I can't wait to get all dressed up this year and actually feel good.

Excited about the new me!
Hi everyone..
So long since I have been on here, so much has happened.. not sure where to start.. Moved end of June, went away end of July, came off CD then, as stomache seemed to be upset for 2 weeks before that, so thought I needed a break from the shakes etc.. and didn't do too well. My daughter lost her baby,as I was away on hols.. was due beg of January, so that was an awful time for her.
Work has been busy and stressful.. then had a problem with my hip, had physio, which didn't work and then had a steroid injection last week, but ended up collapsing straight after, heart stopped, no pulse.. Shook the life out of me and the Doc's and Physio doing the injection.
Off for a weekend away on Saturday to Tenerife with my BF, looking forward to it big time, but need to get back on track when I get back. Put back all of the weight I lost and feel blooming annoyed with myself for it. Can't exercise at the moment, apart from sit ups and arm exercises, so its something that will help I suppose. Have booked an appt with a new CDC for when I get back on Wednesday, to start the ball rolling again..
Hope everyone is well and thanks all for the messages, was good to see them when I got back on here a while an hour ago. Haven't caught up with everything,as there has been so many posts and you have all lost soooo much, I am so proud of you all.
Hope its ok, to come back?? Love Nikki x

Welcome back Nikki! I am so glad you are back again, I really missed you! I am so sorry to hear about your health problems and about your daughter, it is the worst. Hope you are both feeling better soon.
I have also gained A LOT of the weight back on. I have been really struggling the last month or so. I try and try to get back on track, but fail every day (every evening to be honest). I guess I have too much other things going on, and I don't prioritize this enough. Ah, enough of the excuses

Claira, have you tried starting higher up the plan like on the 1000 plan and then coming down until your at ss+. Maybe if you had more of a choice but still limited it would ease you back into it but still restrict you but not so severe-does that make sense? Big hugs-don't torment yourself xx.

Morning all,
I love the pics Claira and a couple of them are perfect for home piccies - you look so clear and happy and healthy
I'm on day two of my new diet. Is it okay if I stay with you guys and bore your rigid until I've settled into it? Feels a bit lonely as there isn't a forum for it!
Day 1 went really really well. Started the day with granola, berries and yoghurt (tiny portions) and pea and pancetta soup for lunch, which to amazement tasted great (I hate soup!).
Had major munchies about 3 hours afterwards so had my treat (you have one of these every other day) and my snack together.
Interestingly found that eating again raised all those old urges for me:cry:which may well explain my dedication to white toast when I took that break from cambridge. So maybe this diet might be a good one to ease me back into food whilst hopefully not piling it straight back on. Just couldnt stand the lack of taste on the higher plans of CD.
Dinner was chicken chasseur with green beans and had it with new man! He's on day 7 and has lost his first stone (bah to men!!!). It's so lovely to see his excitement!
For dessert lots of snogging to burn calories.
Day 2 is looking good so far. Hopped on scales (I know!!) and 2lbs down. I was worried I wouldn't lose on anything other than cambridge so big relief. This might just work for me...
Have a great day guys... xxx

Hi Butterflies,
Sorry not been on for a wee while but been pizza hutting, indianing, etc! I've gained 3lb and am now 11st 6lb. Why oh why is it so hard to stick to a diet, any diet? This diet Chef is delicious food, it fills me up but I just can't stick to it. Sometimes I get so disgusted with myself!
Anyway, great losses on here folks. Great to have you back Nikki. Sorry about your daughter. That must be very hard for you to watch her hurt like that too. Good you are back on diet though.
Contrary your diet sounds like mine - I just wish I could stick to mine. My son lost 7lb in a week on it. He needs to lose another 7lb but he's out working now as a greenkeeper so it should come off with that. Great about the new relationship, I hope it works out.
Witchy, you're doing great and Zoe. Asa, we will stick together eh? and try to get our motivation back. Claira I'm delighted you're back on CD. I too would like to see a food counsellor as I have a problem with it. I've basically been good for months, not losing much but not gaining and then this week I've gone AWOL big time! Really really binging. I even think Jason's a bit disgusted with me to be honest and he doesn't bother usually but prob quite disgusting for a man to see his wife eat like a pig. Oh I hate it, why do I do it? I'm going for dinner tomorrow to a michelin star restaurant - my sister is treating me as I'd watched Masterchef and went on about it. I won't eat like a pig there though, just enjoy it. Then Monday, I've a school lunch but will need to get back on track on Tuesday.
Hope you all have a good day and behave! xxx
