      #299603 - 07/01/2009 11:32

Hello Ladies

Well I have just got back from Slimming World weigh in and was delighted to find out that I have lost a pound and a half !

I still have a way to go, but at least its heading in the right direction lol

How is everyone else getting on with whatever diet you may be on ?

Well done, keep up the walking. Go and impress on the keep moving and pedometer thread.

Every ounce feels good, doesn't it!? Do you take your measurements, too? I find that, for me, they vary much more frequently than does my weight.
You asked - how people are getting on with whatever diet they follow. I can't sing loudly enough the praises of "India and Nerys' Idiot-proof Diet", which I started, gently, last August. Since then, my levels of normal activity have dropped enormously, as I've had surgery and been on crutches; nevertheless, I've lost a stone - yes, that's fourteen pounds - and it's staying off. I know this eating plan doesn't work for everyone, but it's the only thing, EVER, that has worked for me. I think it's a miracle.
Now I wonder - since I am eating a lot of protein, including cheese and eggs, more than previously, is this having a negative effect on my hitherto excellent levels of cholesterol - and do I want to have it checked, anyway, or would I rather not know?
Any opinions, anyone, on (a) the eating plan and/or (b) protein and cholesterol?

Well done Lillie ...you must feel really good about your weight loss.They say it is best to lose between 1 to 2 lb per week as you are more likely to keep it off...just think another ten weeks and it could be a stone..ten weeks is nothing...commit yourself to that for now!(sorry..I dont know how much yo want to lose..I want to lose three stone!!...crikey!)
