How can I lose 10lbs before my holiday on, er, Monday?

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

In a panic. Was meant to start diet in May but one thing (or rather, one pizza) led to another and now I've got less than a week.

I'm 5'6" and look great at 9st 7. This morning I was 10st 11! Shiiiiiiiit!

What can I do? I really REALLY need to crash some of this off. I don't care if it's unhealthy, it's only for a few days and I can do it properly when I get home.

Any and all ideas MASSIVELY gratefully received. What are your tried and tested tricks? Thank you!

FFS. Why did I bake a batch of scones, a loaf and a feckin pizza. I should've known that wouldn't end well.

I'm a failure.

Audit come and join us after your holiday, we have lots of helpful tips

I can't BELIEVE it's nearly time for WhatsGoing to come back already!

See I started so well on the 3:4 diet but I become oddly wired when spending 72 hours on weak vegetable soup and I have not been makings the slightest attempt for the last month, so I just know it has all gone back on.

My fundamental problem started when someone invented chocolate.

After two weeks of being good, I've just had a double helping of lemon meringue pie and two slices of home made pizza. On top of dinner.

I am doomed. To eternal fatness.

Need some shitters tea to purge myself.

Fucks sake.

I slipped crashed off the wagon Tuesday night and am now 12 stone again. Who'd have thought 5 pints of lager and a slice of pizza weighed 5lb???

AF left today, and I weigh the same tonight as I did this morning so hoping I weigh less tomorrow.

Have also footner'd my feet tonight, so hoping that'll help in a few days!

I love this thread

Been trying to shift a stone "properly" for about a year and a half- inspired by you diet rebels I have bought some Tesco Ultraslim shakes and am going to start them tomorrow.

I am hoping that is the case, Scarlett! Not weighing myself until AF has bogged off again. [hopeful emoticon].

WhatsGoingOnEh - just the three! They all needed school shoes, PE trainers and home trainers last year. Today was great, just the two pairs of school shoes and one pair of handed down trainers as they had been worn 5 times by my DC so were new really.

Well done fox.

Genius, Waiting!!

WHat is shitters tea

God it all went arse over arse today. Chips beer cake beer beer cake chocolate beer whiskey beer beer

Sounds like my perfect day, if you replace beer with cider.

I had a huge amount of risotto for supper tonight. It was so deliciously creamy...something to do with the copious amounts of full fat Philadelphia in it. About a third of a standard pack of feta was crumbled over mine & DP's. I then had at least another third of the pack when tidying the kitchen after DP had cooked.

Shitters Tea is wonderful. It's called Slimtee but a more accurate name would be shitters' tea. It really is delicious as well. Drink it just before bed. First morning you'll wonder what all the fuss is about. Second morning your bowels will move very swiftly and efficiently. Third morning more swiftly and efficiently still. But the morning four the whole world will be hurtling out of your arse at 90 miles an hour and you'll feel like you've been turned inside out.

FacebookWillEatItself - they should use that on the marketing info.

Victrix can you please report back on the slimshakes? I always feel tempted by such things but then decide that for 200cals a pop I could just have food, but I suppose they remove the hassle of deciding what to have etc.

I weighed myself yesterday (of course) and was delighted/amazed to see I'd lost 2lbs, putting me at 9st9. Weighed again this morning, and at first attempt was 9st10, but then realised that I'd foolishly weighed prior to my morning wee . Hopped on again post-wee and the scale settled on...9st12!!! How is that even possible??!!! I'm putting it down to a clerical error somewhere and ignoring it. Aiming for a low-cal day today, and started with scrambled eggs, which all good eating days start with IME.

Marvellous! Scales this morning said I'm back to 11.10. 4lb off overnight.

If I were to sleep for an entire week would I lose 28lb?

Sleeping is the new Running, awesome.

Wish me luck shitters, packed my fat pants & my now zippingup bridesmaid dress and am on the way to the airport to head off for a French wedding weekend extravaganza!

Oh I had eggs for breakfast so that I can have wine on the plane later

Didn't they have sleeping clinics or something?
You go in, and sleep it all off.

[goes back to today and grapefruit]

Toast, toast and grapefruit.

I blame the new mobile site for all typos.

12st 2lb. That's 1lb a day this week but just ate the leftover (homemade) pizza for breakfast.

But I have a dozen pastry cases filled with sweetened mascarpone, topped with fruit and glazed. I made DH eat one to confirm they were good and I'm not having any so that's 1-2lb into each of my friends so a 3lb loss comparatively when stood next to them?

1lb a day loss that should be!

Right. I am now feeling faint and light headed. Alternating between 3 Nutridiet shakes and a small meal a day. Since I started (Sunday morning) I have lost 1.4kgs.

DH, on no such diet and in an office job, where he drives to work, has also done no excercise (unlike my swimming x2) has lost 2kgs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He admits this is unfair whilst stroking my hair as I wailed.

2 shakes and a meal! Not 3!

waitingForMe, that is an awesome loss!

Can I join you? I need to sort myself out once and for all, been shredding for the last couple of months (even though it's supposed to only last 30 days) and I have seen a bit of a difference inch and firmness wise but scales have barely moved and I still have a stomach like a kangaroo.

I've been putting some effort in for the past few days, was really pleased yesterday as they finally seemed to be moving, went down to 9st 10. Got on this morning and it had gone up to 9st 12

I have made some of the soup mentioned upthread and plan to invest in some shitter tea. After seeing all your positive results I am going for it!

BreakingBod that makes me feel a bit better, seems there is a nationwide scale malfunction today!

Just met a friend who has lived off aldi smoothies for 6 days and has lost 9lbs for her holiday Obviously not wise in the long run but she looks amazing and says she feels it
