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!

Finished tea - not yum.
Read ingredients - .
Discovered meant to have in the evening .
Just had 4 chilli olives - mouth on fire.

Got home made sweetcorn soup for dinner. Want cheese and crackers.

On other news it would have been FABCat's 20th birthday today .

[Matildasmam22]

itsfab you might have an eventful night if you have took it too early.

Sorry about fabcat

kelly I had a tantrum and gave my thin jeans to the charity shop :(

[ilovemonstersinc]

Seen this thread a few times. Will read up

[TheHoundsBitch]

I wish I had some slithertea. TMI ahead!
I haven't pooped for a couple of days maybe because I haven't eaten enough to make one

Sorry about FABcat fab we lost bitchcat a few years ago and it was really rough :-(

[Itsfab]

I am wondering if I have been daft. I don't generally have trouble going. What is going to happen?

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

WELCOME ALL NEWBIES!!!!! So glad you're all here to throw caution, and bowel-control, to the wind. :)

Itsfab, my cousin (who shat herself on the tea) drank it about 6 times a day, without realising it was a laxative. One cup won't do much. Calm!

[Itsfab]

So how many should I have and are they going to make me 8 stone by Thursday?

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

coffeeinbed To be 10st 5, how much do you have to lose? I'm sorry, I know you've provably already said it but I'm all wrapped up in myself finding it hard to keep up with all the posts!

cocolepew I'm worried about your headaches. Have you asked your doctor? I had a banging headache for the first couple of days of doing the Duncan from Blue diet, but it went away. Maybe it's detoxing..? I hope you get it checked out if it carries on.

matildasmam Hello! Can you ask your GP about another AD that doesn't cause weight gain? I'd have thought gaining 2stone would be depressing in itself. :( isn't there an AD that they call the "happy, skinny, horny pill" in America? I can't remember the name but it sounded amazing. Hold on, will google... Yes! Wellbutrin. Isn't that only sold as Zoloft (the anti-smoking pill) in the UK? Maybe ask for a go on that? Help you quit the fags too... It sounds FUCKING BRILLIANT.

twotontessie lol at your choice of name! You'll be changing that soon, after a week boaking down eggs. Lovely to have you here.

Hi gumnast! Will you be joining us for Shittember?

souper well done for doing your measurements. I need to do that too, but er... Well you know... Bit busy and that... Ahem... Only a fool rushes bad news. :)

LaconicIcon hello! When is your ballet date with secret beloved best friend? So pleased your here! You can lose wight and find love (then pile it all back on with takeaway nights, dinners for two, stuffing down emotional resentment with secret midnight binges etc; being in a couple is fattening)! Good luck.

I love you crazy rebels!

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

Itsfab, you need to choose a diet and then follow it. End of. No excuses. You need a PLAN. Your mission is to go find a plan now that you can follow in Slithertember.

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

PS one or two teas a day is fine.

[Wifezilla]

The stress of using mn on my phone will hopefully shift a few lbs - it's taken me 3 days to work out how to log in (long time lurker) and now I've just lost my introductory message...

So, please can I join you! I have exactly 3 weeks to lose a stone but will settle for the 5lbs I've put on over the summer holidays. Starvation required, nothing else works. I have a meal replacement shake that needs using up so will use that for 1 or 2 meals per day. Lots of water. And as little as possible for the rest of the day. Have shitting tea as well so will guzzle that (when at home!)

Onwards and downwards fellow shitters

[coffeeinbed]

No, I'm 11st 4 or something. I'll see but I think under 10st 5 things gets a little too much. Haven't got much of a boobs to start with so don't want to lose much there.
So 10st 5 target at first.

[coffeeinbed]

not a boobs.
boobs.
Blimey...

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

REBELS! I hope you are all prepared for tomorrow! I am, but I've had a free day again so I had time. I've sorted out all my clothes, created a whole "gym kit" section, and I've made a Slimtember Calebdar/wallchart where I'm going to put my starting measurements, write in the exercise for every day, and add DS2's smiley-face stickers when I've had a good day.

Are you prepared? You know how we get when we don't prepare, we just eat nothing, feel faint, then talk ourselves into buying an M&S egg-mayo-and-bacon-and-avocado-and-corn-and-butter-and-cheese-and-sausage-and-chip sandwich "because otherwise I'll go into starvation mode"

Find the healthy foods you LIKE eating and have a plan where you can eat THOSE.

I read once that the secret of sticking to a diet, is finding a diet that satisfies you. That you can pig out on. I liked Scarsdale for that, but another one (that Harcombe one has stuff-potential) might work better. Do choose it carefully! Once you're on it, you're stuck with it.

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

Wifezilla! He'll! Yes, you're in!

Ok we really need a Slimtember thread. Shall I start one? I do have that wallchart to finish so I'll just do a quick one. We're not allowed to write in it till tomorrow. Oh god - self-control is clearly not a strong point if any of us, is it? Ok I'll start it first thing in the morning tomorrow.

[WhatsGoingOnEh]

He'll = hello. That's just a crazy in joke we have on this thread! Not just a typo or anything. Ahem.

[TheHoundsBitch]

How about 'Slimtember: Duncan from blue and tea that makes you poo' for a title?

[Victrix]

My cupboards and fridge are stocked, I've dusted down my sports bra and am eating the last of the rubbish in the house as I type.

Also dug out a pair of skinny jeans that I can get to about knee level at the moment. Ideally I'd like them to be far too big at the start of October

[TheHoundsBitch]

I have several some jeans like that Vic...

[l4k]

Sounds good. I'm going to finish my blue diet, then start either Scarsdale, harcombe or back to low carb. I've got till Thursday to decide.
Have just had my lamb chops ( day 3 of blue) with cauliflower , greens and courgette as I was bloody starving Hope it doesn't ruin the whole thing !!

"My cousin, who shat herself"

Qoute of the day. My bowels fair squeaked I was roaring so much at this!!!!

[Itsfab]

My ideal plan would be where someone tells me exactly what to eat and I can buy the food ready done or is easy to make the right amount.

I had a moth in my bra today.

It was not a nice experience. When I was trying to see what was down my top I think the woman in the shop thought I was trying to nick stuff. Unless she just likes boobs .

[Cocolepew]

Don't worry about my headache, Im a bit prone to them and I think it is due to not having enough meds left. I take 900mg a day and have only had 100 with another 100 left today. Tomorrow should be interesting .

I have stocked up on fruit and have boiled to eggs for tomorrow.

[Itsfab]

Tummy ache started now and does anyone want any Thomas the Tank Engine curtains? I can't seek them through the paper as last time I tried the classified to sell a car seat someone rang me and wanked down the phone at me angry].
