I have been feeling just the same! I started this 'diet' 3 weeks ago and have only lost about 2lbs which keeps fluctuating back to 0 and then up to 4lbs, this is very frustrating as I am putting so much effort in. You have made me feel so much better saying that it can take quite a while for the weight loss to get going. I…

I have glasses of skimmed milk with chocolate Nesquick or I freeze juices and have them like lollies!:drinker:

I am dealing with the same thing, I am staying with the in-laws at the moment and they are making it very hard to stick to this diet! Every day is a battle but I feel Im getting stronger each day and Im trying not to let their comments get me down. Personally I try not to have bad days but maybe the very occasional bad…

Sorry, Im english!!! 14lbs in a stone :-)

Yes, they do serve me food up for me! They serve everyone's food up for them, its the way they've always done it and If I say I dont want potatoes then then will give me more of something else! At my home I put all the food on the table if we have guests and that way people can help themselves. My husband has spoken to…

I really feel for you, its a catch 22! I've managed to do some exercise on the bike today and I feel really good, its a slow process but we will get there!!!! Good luck with it all, just try and stay positive and keep a good sense of humor.

Ive done all the physio etc. It didnt make me any better which was frustrating. Unfortunately my back problem is proving to be nigh on impossible to diagnose so its hard to know what to do. My surgeon has just done a procedure so fingers crossed he will be able to tell me what is wrong at longgggg last!!!!! Then I can get…

Cheers all! Im just trying to stay positive as Im sure you all know, it can really get you down. Especially as I can even go to work at the moment so long days stretch ahead...! I am managing some gentle stuff on the wii, which is ideal as I cant get stuck when Im out and about when my hip decides to stop working! Chin up…

Hiya, feel free to add me. We all need as much motivation as we can get! Good luck, you'll do great I know it! x

I only weigh myself once a week!!!! Only because my weight fluctuates throughout the week and I feel if I had put on a pound or two on one day then I would go and eat a massive bar of chocolate to make myself feel better! It's so darn hard though!!!!!!!:sad: :laugh:

I missed this one! Hope I get to do it next time :-)

I'm new too....feel free to add me I could really do with the support! I'm laid up at home with a bad back and am bordering on the insanely bored!

You can make anything in slow cookers, soups or stews (fish, beef etc). You can do roasts in there, curries etc and you dont need to add oil so it can be really really healthy. Look up some recipes online. Slow cookers are amazing!!! Such a time saver :-)

It is so hard! I am home with a bad back at the moment and its so hard not to reach for the cookie jar, I am resisting though and filling up on ice lollies and sugar free jelly and lots of water. I keep imagining what it will feel like when I reach my goal and I guess no food will ever compare to that! Good luck!!!!!! You…

Oh, Im from East Wittering, near Chichester in West Sussex!

I am! Could use some motivation too!!!
