Yes saw channel 4 diet show, OH said the soup looked lovely so will have a look later how to cook it they are loosing more than me in just 4 days:rolleyes:

Ha ha! My OH and I almost had a row about that soup :eek: - he kept going on about how lovely it looked and I MUST make it!!! I said he could make it, plus we don't have any of the ingredients in the house so it would cost loads - I will probably relent later and make it, 'cos it did look rather good :rotfl:

I have restricted my calories to 1200 per day this week (as per the Rosemary Conley 'kick start diet' approach), so it will be interesting to see how much I've lost when I weigh in on Saturday. I'm hopeful for a good one, and I shall increase them to 1500 next week if I am on track.

I haven't got any of the ingredients either but OH keeps saying as it is one pot it will work out economical:D

Well, life is a surprise. I'm back in the UK at the moment, sadly for a funeral, and as the snow didn't let me get to my house I'm having to borrow some black clothes from my MiL :eek: She is a lot smaller than me so I thought it was going to be embarrassing - however, not only did it all fit easily, I had a peek at the skirt, and it's a size 12 :j

Hi all :wave:

I'm a newbie and would love to join the thread please.
Like a lot of you I've been bigger before lost 2 stone and had been maintaing for 3 years but have piled it back on in the last 6 months. This is mostly to do with some medication I'm on (should be reducing it soon, woo!) but also getting into bad habits. It's so frustrating because I vowed I'd never let myself get like this again...and here I am :mad:

Nevermind... back on track now. I can do this! :A

Good luck everyone!!!

Bails, welcome back, sorry to hear the sad news. Congrats on a size 12 :j. Will you be going back again?

Heatherberry, hello :hello: Yes, you can do this. I think there's more than a few of us have 'been there done that' and then let it all slip and slide back where we were - it's frustrating. I do go on about the 'maintaining' being the hardest bit - you almost have to be as focussed as when you are losing.

Woo hoo :j

FS please put me down for a 3.8lb loss this week.

Good old Rosemary Conley - sorts me out as usual. I managed to keep to her 'ethos' of low fat and healthy (plus the odd glass or half glass of wine).

Kept to 1200 calories per day - so will be increasing this to 1500 per day next week otherwise I will overshoot my target which is only 0.4lb away.

I'm glad I managed to get into the right mindset to fix this small weight increase, with all of the snow and being stuck at home I could so easily have binged and made matters worse - instead I have just stayed mega focussed.

Also knowing that I would be 'weighing in' on here helped keep me on track - so thanks guys :T

Good luck everyone else with your weigh in's this week - go for it.
