    Griff I have gone off the rails the last two weeks with valentines and then half term but I'm thinking how close I am to trying on my dress in April and I really want it to look nice. I tried hard this last week and I'm not quite back on track but lost 1/4 pound which is still a loss. Come on girls, we can do it!

    Bought all the stuff to try the Scarsdale diet. Think I am gonna be hunnnngggarrrryyyyy! Will have to make sure I snack on laods of carrots. I hope this will kick start me back on track. I don't plan on doing it for the full two weeks though. I think 1 should be enough to get me back on target.x

    I have been really good today, out to the nec with family, calling at little chef for breakfast. They all had olympic breakfasts, i opted for scrabled egg on toast with an orange juice.
    Then for lunch i steered away from the cakes and had chicken and salad sandwich :D

    Got lots of healthy treats in my goodie bag, oats so simple, snack a jacks, etc etc and weight loss shakes, 5 of us went so now im well stocked up lol

    First day on the Scarsdale diet has gone well. half a grapefruit and toast for breakfast, meat and tomatoes for lunch then fish and veg for dinner with a slice of toast. Toast for dinner was a bit weird but otherwise has gone well. Thought I might be hungry but I'm not. I missed my morning cuppa though. Will keep you posted.x

    It's like a better version of the atkins. It's low carbs but healthy food. Today I had half a grapefruit and toast for breakfast, fruit salad for lunch then burger and salad for dinner. There's a set menu every day but breakfast is always the same. There's loads about it online if you search for it.x

    Having ditched the dietician I've decided that being too over concerned is not helping, I've become over obsessed with what I eat and what excercise I do and it's basically made me start to dislike food, I've started to see it as only fuel and I see that that is not good, so for lent i'm giving up over obsessing about my food. At 198lbs, I've about 40lbs to loose so I'm gonna try a different approach. So begins my last diet WW starts again today x

    okso i am really gutted. after choosing my dress a wk ago i have been really good and drinking more water, decreasing my meal sizes, eating much more healthy meals and most importantly i have not been eating at night. i have also been exercising, mainly cardio to burn the calories. yet i have put 2lbs on!! how does that work? i just dont get it, i was really hoping to have lost at least a pound. n i dont have a proper tape measure for measuring my waist to see if i have actually made change. not feeling very good at all

    Mucsle weighs more than fat so even if building lean muscle your weight will not be going down too much, however you could be losing inches? It may be worth investing in a tape measure so that you can check that, it might make you feel better.

    Well H2B and i have both started are meal plans and have our gym memberships, just wish i had his enthusiasim for the gym. He's trying to gain weight and muscle definaition, where as i'm trying to drop round about 2 stone. I was a size 8 until i moved jobs in 2007 and went up to a 14 which was getting very tight, i moved jobs in August 2010 and my weight has been slowly coming down without much effort. Bought my dress in January but agreed with Suzanne Neville that i could wait until January 2012 to get my measurements done for my dress. So the mission to drop 2 stone has begun.
    Good luck girls hope you all meet your goals!!!!!

    Managing to stay the same weight despite eating a little bit more now which I'm pleased about! Stayed the same since New Year really. Dress alterer has said not to lose any more because the dress wont fit if I lose any more but tempted to go for that last 1/2 stone before the wedding and hope she doesnt notice! Penultimate dress fitting on Monday.... Lost 4 stone now in total and fitting into size 12 with no problems but still feel a little porky around the middle! Beginning to think I'm slightly body dismorphic or whatever it is, when you look in the mirror and see yourself different from how others see you! Everyone says I'm looking just right but I still feel lardy! No danger of me becoming anorexic though, love my food far too much for that! I suppose I just wanted to feel perfect in a swimming costume on our honeymoon and I still feel uncomfortable with the bits of tubby I still have. x

    its really hard to change the way u think about yourself when i was at goal weight i realised i would always pick up clothes in bigger sizes cause that was what i saw in the mirror , get some photos of yourself in some of ur new clothes to give you a boost and compare them next to an old photo or if u kept an old set of clothing put it on so u can feel how much u have lost x

    ive been sensible but still lost 4lb since tuesday... todays sat wooooo. Only started diet tues so really happy tho bet i'll lose nothing next week. just need to get back to 8st 2 so 10lbs to go. my worry is though that as soon as I come off my healthy eating plan I think ooo and then out comes the choccy etc again. How do I not fall off the band wagon with sooooo long to go till wedding. I know I have to start now or I will just keep letting weight creep up and be in a bad situation. Was 8st in aug and 9st 2lb the other day eeeek

    This has been my first week doing the Scarsdale diet. I have been losing steadily just by eating healthily but had gone off track a bit with Valentine's and half term so needed a boost to get me back on track. I followed the meals but did have one cup of coffee with milk and a choccie biscuit, also I put spread on my toast. No way I'm eating dry toast! Anyway H2B (who doesn't need to lose any weight) lost 4lbs (git!) and I lost 3lb which I was still chuffed with as it puts me back on track to be my goal weight before I have my first fitting in April.

    i think size of meals is a big problem for a lot of people. when i cook i dont do that big portions. just the right amount but when h2b cooks he does huge portions so i end up either eating it or throwing it away which i hate and wasting money!

    well done on all the weight losses xx
