    Any advice would be very grateful.. I've probably got about 5/6 stone too loose.

    I've no diet sheets etc yet.

    So if anyone has any tips please share lol.

    Thank u

    Lou x

    Hi all, how are you all getting on? hope you are all well and sticking to plan. I just want to say one thing people keep asking about diet sheets there are NO diet sheets for these tablets you just follow a low fat diet with no more fat than 5g of fat per 100g no more than 15g per meal. Basically no junk plenty of veg lean meat etc also you can drink alcohol if anyone was wondering.oh and spray oil only. please let me know how your all getting on and if you have any questions please just leave a reply smile x

    Hi all...

    Well day 2 and I've been very good lol..

    Water retention must have been a problem because all I've done is wee !! Lol

    I've had porridge with water for Breckie, black coffee, rice chicken and veg for dinner, FF yogurt. Lots of fruit and gallons of water...

    I've gone from crisps... Chocolate... Sugar in tea n coffee to none !

    Determined I AM !

    I'm not going to weigh myself until I see the doctor in just under 4 weeks, and please god let me be skinny lol

    Hope everyone's ok 💖

    Hi Lou,

    Thanks for the well wishes smile

    I'm sure we can spur each other on smile that sounfs like a lovely goal, I am aiming to loose 5st this year, I havr lost 3 st over 29 months but would like to speed it up. Main reason is fertility. I have PCOS which means all I can do to reduce any PCOS issues inc fertility is loose weight and a lot of it! So 5st this year by xmas is my goal.

    Hope to hear from you over the weekend smile

    Feel free to PM me anytime x
