Hi Butterflies, How are you all today?
Iamlovely so glad you're not giving up. We Butterflies will support you through. I feel like that everyday right enough so I don't know if I'm actually the best person to be supported anyone!
Louielou, that's brill about your trousers. I had a skirt on today that I had only worn once cos it was too tight. Felt fine on me. You will really start to find your clothes huge on you. I know I can't wait. It's exciting isn't it.
Asa, I'm very unsure about holiday thing too. Really worrying about it. I love food so much I don't even know if I would enjoy my holiday without eating but I know if I do all my greediness could come back and I could gain loads of weight. My husband doesn't bother much with food. I could heat up some dog food and serve it with veg and he would eat it just the same as the best casserole! It's me who bothers! So really confused and worried about holiday. I'm going to take CD with me and see how it goes. Maybe if I tell myself that I will eat for the last week I'll be able to minimise the damage.

Hi Broxi! Yes, I agree that food is a part of the travels. I want to taste the local dishes and so on. One thing I will skip is the extra stuff we buy and have at the hotel room 
.
Maybe I will do one shake for lunch, and a healthy breakfast (is included), and a dinner in the evening.

Yes, breakfast is the easiest to replace. Dinner the hardest ! I am always hungry between lunch and dinner.
I am sure you will follow though with whatever plan you decide to do. Just decide on what you want first. If we gain a few pounds, they'll come right off once we get home again.

Cos whatever I eat on holiday will have a consequence- whether it's a CD meal and I'll lose weight or whether it's a not allowed food and I gain weight. Ultimately though I do have a choice. x

Asa & Broxi - I am off on a holiday mid July. It is just with my family, but I am going to decide nearer the time. I have two weddings to go to on the Saturday, then holiday Sunday to the Friday, then I have a ball on the following Saturday. I have a feeling that I will attempt to do the same, do CD for breaky and lunch - then eat low card in the evening.
It is a difficult decision...........

Hi Butterflies, I've just popped on before I go to sleep. Really fed up on diet today; it seems like I've been on it for so long now. Are any of you feeling like that? I'd just love to you know what! But I won't. I think my weight has stuck for about 4 days and that is worrying me too. Oh I'm just getting depressed in time for my Friday moaning session. Now I'm aware I feel like s**t every Friday I wonder if tomorrow will actually be any different.
Glad you've got your room done Witchy. Hope you are alright tomorrow too-you're like me on Fridays!
Just to tell you all cos I know we all love our fab creams etc. I bought the most amazing fake tan. It's called Rich Chocolate by Vita Liberata. I look like I'm just back from a fortnight in Caribbean! Nobody believes it is fake! I've got quite dark skin though anyway but it's best I've tried and I've tried loads - in Boots just now for £13. (I always think brown fat looks so much nicer than white fat!)
Anyway goodnight and God bless dearest Butterflies, I will talk again tomorrow xxx

Good morning everyone!
LadyB, I also have a wedding to go to, and there I will eat what is served, but leave the "worst" things on the plate.
I also booked a weekend trip to Stockholm to shop for clothes to the wedding (I have nothing!!!). The weekend is in 2 weeks, and the wedding in 3 weeks. I don't want to go shopping too early in case the clothes will be too big. Anyway, there I will do shakes and bars since I will stay with a good friend of mine. So that wont be a problem!
Broxi, I am the same weight today as I was on Monday WI. I am not too worried (yet), since I got mine TOTM yesterday evening. Hope to loose the retained water (or whatever we put on at this time), by Monday.
Have a wonderful Friday! I am looking forward to the weekend!

Hi everyone
Sorry I haven't been around the last couple of days, but I am shattered in the evenings after my return to work! I thought it wouldn't effect me too much but obviously work is harder than I remember - I am mentally tired by the time I get home as I have to concentrate really hard to get what I'm doing to stay in my head - still have baby brain I think! I was in bed asleep by 9.30 last night and the same the night before.
Going to get my eyebrows waxed and tinted this afternoon - my hair is (dyed) darker than my eyebrows. Must get an up-to-date picture taken so that I can show you what I look like.
I'm out tomorrow night on another girls night out - so it's drinks and dinner again, I'm driving so the drinks aren't a problem and they all know I'm on a diet so hopefully won't comment on what I'm not eating...
C is sleeping at the moment so I'm taking a chance to catch up on posts.
Broxi and Asa don't be stressing about the scales not moving... I've got the ones that show down to ounces and that's the only way I know I've lost weight some days... and other days it stays the same. Just think about your losses over the past few weeks - it is amazing!
I started CD on the 10th May at 14st 4 and now on the 12th June I weighed myself this morning and I am 12st 7 - I am absolutely delighted!
Oops C is wakening better go...

Hi Girls, thank you to the person that has given me a lovely reputation comment, I don't know who it was but it was from the Butterfly thread so thank you very much xx
I really feel for those of you who are going on hols and are worrying about the food. I think it's one of the hardest things to do whilst on cd as for me the food on hols is one of the best bits. I am off for 2 weeks at the end of July with hubby and kids, nothing planned but we are gonna have days out etc. I am gonna just keep in mind that it won't be the last time I am gonna be on hols but definately the last time I will be on hols and fat. The next time we go away I will be a slim jim and able to enjoy the food in moderation and feel fantastic about the way I feel and look. That feeling is better than any taste that goes in my mouth. Good luck girls. Zoexx

Went to see the new Terminator film last night with hubby, no cinema goodies just my bottle of water lol. Even my poor Husband didn't want anything even though I told him it wouldn't bother me, bless him.
It was a good film and I enjoyed having a night out and food not having to be envolved to have a good time. Zoe x

Hi everyone,
I felt just like you last night Broxi, felt like you know whating SO much, felt grumpy, miserable and in desperate need of yep comfort. Had 2 bars that day and suffered horribly as a consequence. Only bright side is that it was two bars rather than say, 2 d******ts!
Today I'm a bit better, but very blaoted as totm due, and indeed far more bloated than I normally am. All is a bit pants at the moment but I'm hoping this is just a dip and I feel motivated again soon.
Off to a friend's big 30th party in Yorkshire tomorrow, and I'm staying on the diet, driving to save the temptation of alcohol and lovely sister is coming with me, who is very understanding. Bit nervous though as this is my first big event on the diet. Hope you all have a fabulous weekend, this is my first weekend off in months!! xxxxx
