WOW every day for 2 months....maybe that's where I've been going wrong. I take it when the headache is already there !

Thanks Sunny Bunny might get some of those salt tablets as well. Really, really want to avoid it this time...or at least not have me lying in a dark room not about to function ! Cant wait for the carb hunger to go tho...its amazing how it works :)

Thanks for replies :)

you can get a 'lace up' panel put into the back. Go to a good seamstress who can do this for you. Also make sure the bride knows what you are planning on doing ;)

I crochet in the evening. It's very meditative ...and keeps my hands busy :-)

I think you sound like a great fun person....Id love a friend like you :) We all get bouts of insecurity, keep you head up get a bit of 'me' time and all will come good.

you look great well done

Thanks rheddmobile....yep had a period and was up 2lb....he nearly asked for proof LOL Constipation was another factor ...friggin tough being a woman sometimes !!

I think he can work for others....One question never asked is how is your mental health :neutral: If he knew I have chronic anxiety ,and was on antidepressants for years (off them completed for a few months now :smiley: ) it would prob be obvious that I wouldn't be able for hard core.

Interesting enough Jennifer, he doesn't charge much at all. €20 to meet in a community hall (or he will come to your house!) He wanted 120% from me...I told him I could give 80% LOL

Thanks Taebythesea (you sound Irish btw ?) yes he said stright out that he wants big losses fast. Its his thing...his trasformations look great on fb..but the reality is very tough. When I tried to quit two weeks ago he talked me into staying. And then told me he would give me 3 weeks and he'd decide if he would keep me on…

WOW. That is all, just WOW

This is exactly where I am at the moment. Not hungry but want to eat :/ Day 2....looking forward to when I stop wanting carbs ;)

Thanks fitgoat I've read a lot on her about the 1200 cal. Is there another site that can calculate my age/weight and recommend how many cals I should be on .. Thanks :)

Thanks as said I only started low carb yesterday until then it was cico. Mfp also recommend 1200 cals. I'm 5.3 height and weigh 12st 3lb. Thanks

Yep me :-)

Add me. I'm 45, 4 young kids and 2 dogs :-) not at goal yet but getting there

You look great :-)-

I'm in same boat. Starting weight 13stone. Down 12lb . Looking to get to 10 stone :-)

Be careful. I weight 170lb and am on 1200 cals a day...and I find it tough :/ I get tired and cranky and can have no energy and be hangery ! People here have your back...they are here to support you, not out to get you ! Take their advice on board. Best of luck.

I always thought 'woo' is like a 'wow' well done !! I'v always used it as a positive. Maybe someone thinks your inspiring :)

I'll be joining you in January...looking forward to it :)

Hi, Im on antidepressants too, and probably will be for life !! It definately affects weight loss BUT its not impossible, just slow ;) Im down 8lbs since Jan on low carb. The main advice I have is dont compare youre weight loss to others...some of us are turtles...but happy ones :)

Im so sorry for your losses. be kind to yourself and give yourself time to heal. x

Thanks for this :)

LOL love this..especially the 'underpants doesnt roll down'....I hate this especially when Im at exercise class and keep having to pull my pants up over my tummy !!!

WOW thanks so much for all the responses, what a great community :) I think the reason i fell off the wagon was that I let myself get hungry. I made myself a low carb dinner but it was awful and I couldnt eat it. When I plan and prepare Its much easier to say no to the bad foods. My mum buys the fruit cake for the kids…

Thanks for all the advice from most of you ;) Iv thrown out all the old sweets so am going to start anew. Just wondering what others do when they fall off the low carb wagon? Do you just continue as normal. Anyone do a fast ? Would this help at all? Im sure there are others that have young kids... so not possible to have a…

ooh can I join? SW: 162 CW: 161 (day 3 !!) GW: 126

ok thanks everyone...feel like a bit of a drama queen now !! No I dont have a whole load of weight to lose, looking to lose 30lbs. Guess Im just being impatient. I just want it gone and then maintain !! I did LC a few years ago and lost 8lb in the first week...so think I was expecting the same result. Thanks for all the…
