Good luck to you! I tried Celebrity Slim last week and couldnt manage it. I lasted all of one day! The shakes were foul though.

Im starting Slim Fast today Im currently having a big glass of water as Im saving my shake until my LO is having her breakfast. Hope fully my food diary today will look a bit like this...

8-30am Shake
10-30am Apple and grapes
13-00pm Shake
15-00pm Small cup of spicy parsnip soup
19-00pm Veggie chillie with rice

Then having bucket loads of water as well You can have 3 snacks inbetween shakes as well, that go up to 95 cals, so a bit of soup or some veggies or fruit or something is fine. So 3 snacks, 2 shakes and 1 meal. How'd the first day go?

Slimfast is on offer in Tesco at the moment. I got a carton of power which is 6 days of shakes, 2 premade shakes and 4 meal bars for £12 so thats 9 days worth.

Its actually gone alot better than I thought today. My sister told me to be prepared to feel hungry but I had the morning shake and then forgot about food until I had a meal bar at lunch, then had apples and grapes for a snack and just had my veggie chillie for dinner. Im having 2 maryland cookies for supper in a bit too as one of my snacks

Sounds like your day went well too Im apart of slimming world so shouldnt really be doing slimfast but I just need a boost. I seem to be losing either 1lb or staying the same (havent put weight on since I started). Ill deffinitly keep up to date on here. I was 11st 5lb yesterday at weigh in, so next monday Ill put up how much Ive lost (because Im determined to lose weight!!!!)

good luck! how much is slimfast? I really need to lose weight and i cant afford the lipotrim at the minute!

thanks, its about 1.59 for 1 shake or around 5 pound for a tin of the powder to make the shake, it does 12 shakes, the meal bars are 5 pound for 4, i got it to about 28 pound a week but next week i'll spend less and not get the snacks by slimfast but have fruit & veg ect so it'll be about 20 pound depending on where you shop, how much is the lipotrim. x

Yea i thought i would be really hungry but i'm not to bad, i really look forward to tea though! you seem to be doing well aswell, god i think i might of spent to much on the ready made shakes! i'll stick to the powder i think. I'm looking forward to weighing myself on monday.

 

[AugustMum]

The powder is £4 in Tesco at the moment and the strawberry one tastes lovely I got 2 of the premade ones (theyre 2 for £2 at the mo) as Im moving house Thursday so theyll come in handy but if I carry this on longer than the 9 days then Ill stick to powder.

Oh god I was soooo looking forward to my evening meal! But Im going to make soup up as snacks as I reckon it would be really filling and lovely. Huuummmmm.

 

[mopmum4X]

Soup sounds good! I hope i can do more then 9 day's i have nearly 3 st to lose, I'm enjoying this diet, saying that I'll prob be fed up with it by the end of the week! lol I was so full after my tea I'm really proud for not picking so my food diary so far is (awake at 5.30 again)
7.30am coffee
9am coffee
9.30am a few cranberries & nuts
10am cuppa
10.30am slim fast snack bar
i.m gonna have a shake for my dinner then maybe an boiled egg for my snack later, i think I'm gonna stick to the powder cos of the price, o good luck with your house move, hows your day going? x

 

[mopmum4X]

Just had my shake, and yes i agree the strawberry one is really nice! x

Top tip: I found that Soya milk makes the milkshakes a bit more creamier & thicker

O thanks! i'll give that a try! x

 

[AugustMum]

I had my shake for breakfast, then instead of a dinner tonight I had a sandwich and 2 biscuits for lunch instead. Going to have an apple in a second and then have a shake for dinner. Tonight is going to be mental with final packing so I probably wouldn't have had time for tea anyway.

Sounds like your doing well! Ive got about 2st to lose but if I can drop 7lbs on slimfast (I dont expect to do this in 9 days lol) then I think it'll give me the motivation to keep going with just healthy eating and excercise.

Ooo I might try the soya milk idea. I quite enjoy my morning shake. I hate waiting for it though. I wake up between 6 and 6:30 so I wait until 9 to have it otherwise it seems like a lifetime until the next one lol.

 

[AugustMum]

Oh and so far the house move isnt going so well lol, I still havent packed a good portion of my things! I pick the keys up tomorrow at 11am and so want to have everything ready to go by then. Ive got 2 days Paige free to get everything moved so Im hoping it'll go smoothly!

 

[mopmum4X]

O i hope you manage to get packed in time, should make it a bit easier without your little one to feed and change, yea i know what you mean with the waiting! I think you might lose more then what you think in 9 days, I've done slim fast once before and lost 6lb in a week i only did a week then but gonna stick to it this time, that sounded like a good idea to have your food for lunch and shake for tea, i didn't have that egg for my snack instead i had some almonds and raisins so far i,ve had
7.30am coffee
9am coffee
9.30am a few cranberries & nuts
10am cuppa
10.30am slim fast snack bar
12.30pm slim fast shake
4pm almonds raisins
we're both doing well! x

[AugustMum]

Ive had a bad day today. I forgot my morning shake and only had a tiny bit of the midday one and only had 2 cookies just in a rush while packing up the car (for the millionth time! lol) and then for dinner we had chip for the chipshop as I had no food in lol. So tomorrow I will be a bit stricter I feel ready for monday!
