Discovery Home & Health

Have been dieting for as long as I can remember.Have never been a size 12( only when I was 12 and wore age 12 clothes!)can only remember at my smallest being a size 14, funny, looking back at photos thinking I wish I could be like that again when at the time the photo was taken I thought I was big then.Think it must have a lot to do with the mind.

Another thing I notice is as a yo yo dieter if say I get down to 13 stone then go back up to 14 stone I feel REALLY fat but if I go down from 15 stone to 14 stone I feel pretty good how strange.

I have started ss this week,have about 4 stone to lose am really determined to stick with it this time.Started monday hard going but am getting there.(Thurs now,) am seeing counsellor tomorrow I have drunk so much water this week think I may burst,havent had any of the headaches dont really feel hungry,cant wait til I can start having the bars though, I love the choc orange but my counsellor says not to have them for a few weeks how sad am I getting excited as I countdown to that moment.

I find this site a real inspiration and I will post on here as often as possible to let you all know how I am doing.Well done to everyone sticking with cd LL or whatever you have chosen we will all get there in the end.

I set myself up a ticker but cant get it on here the kids can probably do it in 5 seconds flat but if it is easy enough could someone let me know how to do it please thankyou muchly

Hi Julie and welcome to the forum. Will bump up my thread of creating ticker so you can get yourself one. Good luck hun and look forward to seeing you be the ever shrinking woman. Karenxx

Hi Julie and Welcome
Gosh that sounds so lame doesnt it
Reading your post brought back alot for me about looking at photos and wishing you could look like that but at the time you thought you were fat.. I am exactly the same. Not so much as I am the smallest i have ever been.. and i am only 20! I think i wore a size 14/16 when i was 11 or 12, how bad is that!
Good luck with everything and i look forwards to reading about your journey!

Hi Julie, Welcome to the forum and well done on getting back with CD. I know exactly what you mean about loving and loathing being in the same weight zone. I was 13 stone 4 at Christmas just gone and felt amazing as I was mid flow with LL, I got right down to 11 10 and then let things slide and here I am 13 stone 4 again and hating it!! I'm also finding all my size 12's too tight for comfort which is REALLY frustrating having got to the point where they were a little loose if anything! Anyway, I'm hoping to get my groove back soon. You keep up the good work and litres of water and I look forward to hearing how you get on.

Hi Julie,

I did say hi back on my thread to you as well. I'm not around as much as I would like these days. But I will definately be keeping a lookout for you, plenty of good people around here to watch out for you and give you a little helping hand if need be.

Most of the time we just tend to waffle on about any old cr@p.........but it's a good distraction technic. You couldn't come across a more friendly bunch of people although I promise you they are not normal in many, many ways. If you ever have the pleasure of being on line with them at the same time on a cold dark winters night you will see what I mean!

I do not have a clue what Sarah means by that.....

Vikki.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........She is one of the ones I'm trying to warn you about!

That Sarah's a weird one you know, cant understand what on earth she goes on about....treat her nicely as she obviously makes things up Karenxx

Look they just keep poping out of the woodwork and before you know your whole thread becomes nothing but gobbled****!

Mwahhahahaha!!!!!! Need running around, mad smiley there!!

Vikki.

Hey it changed my word! It wasn't a bad word honest! Now it looks like it was.

You really shouldnt swear you know sarah, DH doesnt like it and pot calling kettle black comes to mind! Karenxx

Ahhh too funny. Dont you know i need a wee!!! xx

girls we're doing it again..poor julie is probably too terrified to post again now! Remember ScottishLel...we never saw her again!!!

Vikki.

OK (head bowed down low) i am sorry , we really arent as mad as we seem (yeah right!) and we will be gentle with you i promise, at least until we know you better, ha ha. Karenxx
