SO here goes (she says grining)
Bust 47"
Waist 41" (well i think its my waist.. its the middle bit anyway)
and hips 42 1/2"
I have had 3 CD started with the porridge then had veg soup and a mint chocolate .. hot.
I also went to an aqua class this am and walked the dog..
I am at a point in the day where my little inner voice is saying Stuff it and eat.. so ive tried distraction, watched a scarey movie (and wheres the popcorn?) and painted my nails and now Im off to have some water.. How is going for you Nicki?? TBH honest i cant wait to go to bed LOL so Im not tempted..

Is there room for one more? I'm Steph 31 and have a 6 month old. Lost 1st 4lb over 6 months only so decided to try and get things moving with CD. Coming up to end of week 3 and so far -16lb. I'm doing SS for as long as I can have 5 stone more to lose in total. I gained weight firstly when I slipped a disc and was laid up for many months and some extra during my pregnancy. X

Hi Steph! Welcome The more the merrier.

So I changed back to SS on Wednesday - carried on doing Stage 2 for a further 3 days after I discussed it with my consultant, and decided it was def not working. I think by my weigh in tomorrow, I should have lost a kilo (about 2.2lb) this week. Which I guess since it's not a full week on SS, isn't too bad

Steph, I also lost a bit on Slimming world but it wasn't coming off fast for me - but geez do I miss the food on this one! I've been tempted to jack this all in and do atkins or this: the real food diet delivered to you - Go Lower which is no more expensive that CD but it has real food. BUT I know if i were to do those, I'd lose control again.

I need something this restrictive to keep me focused. I think I'll stay on SS now until target and then go straight to the 810... we'll see

Hello all, nearly at the end of my planned 2 day break, it's been great but motivated to loose the last 18lb, I found that I could only eat tiny potions plus have maintained my water intake.

Hoping that getting back on SS tomorrow won't be too stressful!!

I will be doing low GI once back on normal eating.

Hi girlies

Wow good luck sitting through getting ur hair straightened nicki....I'm a hairdresser so I know the process lol.

And a big welcome to our new buddies. The more the merrier to keep us all on track..

Well my day hasn't been good so far. I got up this morning and my back completely went on me. This happens to me from time to time. I guess it's with all the standing I do at work all day. I should have seen it coming actually as I was standing non stop for 10 hours on Friday with only a half hour break in between. I have hardly any strength in my core area at all so I really need to start doing pilates or something.

Anyway I've not been too mobile today and have had to take some pretty strong painkillers and anti-inflammattries so I've had to eat although I'm just sticking to chicken and veg and some fruit. So my restart is postponed until 2moro, but hopefully with me eating less carbs today I'll be able to get on okay.

Sorry girls, really wanted to get going today but my damn back has buggered me up again. :-( :-(

Right I'm off to look for some pilates DVD's online.
Hope ur all having a good day. Xxx

 

[trisha]

Thanks for the welcome

Well so far so good for me! Day 2 and just had my second shake, been shopping at supermarket and managed to ignore the chocolate.

Hi Lisa, Aly and Steph,

Thanks for making me feel welcome. A bit about me, I'm Becky 35 from South Wales. I've got two girls, one who turned 2 last week and the other is 17 weeks old, so I'm certainly busy.

Been overweight for all of my life (well from about 11!) and as time has gone on, so has more and more weight. Have PCOS and docs told me I'd never conceive naturally so we had a finally pre-children blow out holiday and were looking into starting IVF when we got back. Turns out there was no need as a month later I found out I was pregnant. After 8 years of trying this came as a complete surprise so we assumed it would take a while again, how wrong we were!

So after ballooning in both pregnancies I decided enough was enough. I don't want to be a fat mummy at the school gates that my girls are ashamed off. So after trying and failing with SW more times over the years than I can even remember I decided that drastic action was needed, hence why CD.

So at 29 days in I was 1st 4lb down and hoping to be at max 12st when we head off to the states in Nov.

Hopefully we can keep each other motivated as in all honesty I'm really wobbling these last few days (although haven't caved yet!!!)
