    Will enquire when we know the name of it... :) we may even just drive home again, only an hour away so not too far to save money.


    Ques for those on CD.... I am interested in doing it, I need to lose around 4 stone :o and my BMI is way over!! I've tried dieting, I just can't do it, but is it expensive? A lady at work is on something similar, but it costs her £66 pw!!!!

    Tigz that sounds like LighterLife, it's more expensive because there's more of a counselling element I think.

    CD is roughly £35 a week. Depending on your BMI you might need the doctor to sign a form to say they're happy for you to do it, or you could start on one of the higher plans (that include food) that don't need a doctors sig at first?

    If your bmi is over 40 or you take certain medications you will need a docs signature. It sounds as if that is LL, CD is about £40 a week but mine seems to be £36 because I dont have the pre made shakes :D There is a CD thread... Ill get the link :)

    Evening all

    Blimey you lot have been busy planning the meet :):) How exciting and weymouth if its a nice day will also be heaving but its fab for the kids...and they have donkey rides, candyfloss and dogynuts!

    Maz think its £4 ish return from here to weymouth but if there are all of us + pap in the car it would probably be cheaper and easier to drive and park.

    Or we could be true DFW and get the bus, only half an hour and about £2. Details nearer the time but I am Sooooooooooooo excited :)
