@Babybrainx2 oooh that sounds very interesting. 1st in 2 weeks is very
Impressive!! I'll have a look into it Smile I'm determined to reach my goal this year. Luckily I'm still quite young so when I put my mind to it I do lose weight fairly quickly. Just need to motivate myself! Good luck!

Just had brunch of fried eggs and bacon washed down with a nice black coffee (that's how I drink coffee anyway - will have to wean myself off my tea habit)

Got weighed this morning, first Time in 3 months 😤

Has anyone here tried bullet coffee and if so do you like it ? I'm lactose intolerant so can't make it the regular way. I'm hoping it will still taste good with plant based ingredients

sausagebaconandtomatobutty · 02/01/2018 17:48

Need some inspiration for dinner tonight -I'm terrible at planning ahead

Flawed It's nice, used it as meal replacement when doing keto!

Flawedbroad · 02/01/2018 19:27

BadlyParkedRangeRover in that case I'll give it a try! I've bought some coconut milk and dairy free butter so hoping it tastes good. Will also put some turmeric in as I've heard it's a good anti inflammatory Smile

TheSeasonOfTheWitch · 04/01/2018 12:08

Me!!
I've started the blood sugar diet for the last 2 days but no idea what my starting weight is... will try and find some scales today.
... but I know it will be about that! It's such a large amount it will be great to have support from those trying to do the same.
I've tried before but now my husband is doing it too for the first time so that will make all the difference I hope!

Do we post stats?

notapizzaeater · 04/01/2018 16:14

I put turmeric and black pepper in everything that has a sauce. (DH has arthritis)

I'm not starting properly until next week when I'm back to work after christmas. Just gradually cutting back on unhealthy foods at the minute to ease myself in!

notapizzaeater · 05/01/2018 08:57

I'm doing fine, had cheesy scrambled egg for brunch (hols so not getting up till 11 ish) then tuna mayo with a huge bowl of home made coleslaw. Was peckish about 10 so had a coffee with double cream.

Off to panto then visiting dad later so have boiled some eggs for snacks.

sausagebaconandtomatobutty · 05/01/2018 09:10

Going well while I'm at home but went out for lunch with friends yesterday and there was literally nothing on the menu that was low carb and that I liked Grin

Did stick to 1 course though so slightly proud

Helloooooo is anyone still here???

franktheskank · 14/01/2018 10:34

I'd like to do this.Smile

I don't think I need to lose 100lb but not far off. I'm 97kg! Which is a shame as I was this heavy a couple of years ago but lost it after I left my husband, I was about 75 the beginning of this year but have slowly put it on since I fell in love again Blush

I'm hoping to lose 7kg by the end of feb.

I can do it, I'm a member of a gym I never go to and I know how to lose eight it's just the motivation. Going to weigh in on a Sunday. Good luck everyone!

Fruitbat1980 · 16/01/2018 19:25

I have 60lb to lose Blush can I join too?
I have a wedding (not mine) early may and need to be half way there by then!
Last time on Atkins I lost 45lb- and promptly had a baby and put it all back on. I’m off to a flying start -7lb already (started 2nd jan) but know it’s only going to get harder!

franktheskank · 16/01/2018 19:52

How is everyone doing it?

I feel like I've done so many diets I'm not sure what to eat anymore!

I've been trying to eat no fast food or snacks or puddings. That's what I did last time I lost weight and I lost a couple of stone that way, but you can only get so far doing that really.
