    The thing with slimfast is that you still eat, so have to have some self control :confused:

    I put on a pound this week.....chinese Thursday, and again Friday then curry Saturday - how bad is that :eek: :eek:

    its not terrible, its normal food to eat. I have opened a large packet of crisps.

    Mum forgot they were on the list for home shopping. and so of course I have to eat them..........

    will some one please remind me that I do not want to be fat and single for the rest of my life.


    Edited to ed - feel suitably shamed that Bunny pointed out 3 takeaways in a week is not good. you see I don't even think like that. We don't eat take awy much but blimey I snack on some seriously rubbish crap. and

    Crisps _ they are 27% FAT.

    will stop now.
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Oh if you insist then :D, well remember ROcky 1, thats the first Rocky film ;) which btw was released 33 years ago! :eek: anyway in the film when he goes for his first run, its early, its dark, its cold and he's outta shape. Well tonight I go for my run, its dark, its cold and Im outta shape and the music playing is that track thats played on the film when he goes for his first run, and I thought,'Yes get in there' and off I go for my run, nice and slow with my ROcky music on in the background; I got the bug back :D Thats it :D

    Buffy, the special k diet is just cereal in a bowl twice a day....

    Slimfast is not as good nutritionally as the cambridge diet...and not as filling (and it makes me fart!)

    I am going for my weigh in tomorrow and hoping to have lost 3lbs but somehow i doubt it this week. That would take me to 9 stone 13lbs...the weight I was before I had Chloe...I am going to go on one of the eating plans with a shake for lunch i think, cos I can cope with breakfast and dinner but lunch is a royal pain in the !!!! at work....
