Thanks :) feeling ridiculous vulnerable at the moment, and it harks me back to being treated like cr*p all thru school and pony club :( xx
 
No one's unwelcome here WT. It's always been a really good forum for support. People just get used to doing things in a certain way, and we've always been quite relaxed about things like challenges and letting people do their own thing.

First thing to do is to decide what packs to have to start off with and decide where to stash them in your kitchen. Some people sort them all into days, others sort them into flavours, everyone's different. Assuming you've ordered a variety there is quite a choice of packs to try. You probably won't like all of them (I don't think I know anyone who likes every single one) but as long as you like a decent variety it makes the diet achievable. Whatever you order you will end up with a stack of a particular flavour left in the cupboard as people's tastes change so much as you get into the diet.

Good luck!
 
Oh, and I did Pony Club too something like a million years ago :)

Thank you, I've ordered the sample pack
 
I know where you're coming from chick but try not to think of it like that :) any time you need to chat I'm here! And as we might be starting on the same day we may just be going through the same stages at a similar time so when you feel cr**py I'll probably feel cr**py too so we can help to boost each other's morale :) xx
 
Good tip borders girl I'll sort my cupboards out later so I have somewhere to keep and order my stash ;-) xx

Thanks, as you've not done more than 50 posts, I can't pm you, but will keep an eye and pm you when I can x thanks x Jo x
 
Same here chick x

Ah, well then you won't be sorting things into flavours :). Concentrate on trying the ones you think you'll like the most to start with because you'll need to do another order before you get to the end of trying all the flavours otherwise you'll end up running out.

Okies, am also doing the cash back thing. Have submitted my before photo and it's been ok'd as suitably hideous! Rob has told me I need to place my next order on day 4 to ensure it comes in time. Also keeping an eye on e-bay, and making note of people who are nearby ;)
Which pony club were u in? Do you still ride? x
 
No, I haven't ridden for years and years. Rode practically every day when I was a kid (and slim!). I was in the West Kent branch but I live in Scotland now though.
 
I'm sending my photo to Rob today to be ok'd. Has anyone actually ever got their cash back do u know? I hope I do :-D
 
I don't think that anyone has actually got to goal on S&S yet (well apart from those who only had a stone or something to lose). The diet hasn't been going all that long and only started becoming really popular at about Christmas time. So I don't know of anyone who has had their cash back yet. I expect there will be a limit as to numbers as they can't do it for everyone. I didn't take any before photos (too horrified!) but I wouldn't do the publicity thing anyway as I'd be too embarrassed.

Fingers crossed eh!! I've set myself a target of about 9stone to lose, so will see how I go!
 
I thought it must be new as there aren't any success stories on the site yet which was a bit off putting at first until I found minimims :)

Fingers crossed Rob accepts my photo tonight and that I can get to goal :) It will keep my husband happy about spending so much money on a diet!! Lol!!
 
You'll get there chick! ;-) x
 
Funny - I would have spent far more money on normal food than I would have spent on this diet!
