      #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.

I'm taking the fifth amendment about reduction in chocolate consumption

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!)
