Well done on the weight loss!! I'm very excited to start myself and these posts really help to keep focused on the task ahead.
Vanda, I have not even called the docs yet because I want to tie it in with a overall check up next week (which I'd forgot I had) where I will take the form in and see what's what. Killing two birds, etc. I'm hoping the practice nurse will do it, but I'm doubtful with our practice. I've got until the second week in November anyway.
I have been very aware of what I've been eating pre-LL and I'm starting to understand my 'triggers' which is good. I've lightened up on the sugar, which I hope helps with any withdrawals when I start.
I know I've started to pack a bit of winter poundage on so I really can't wait to have a formal weight loss plan in place which will give me accountability and brain-re-training.

Well I've been to my first class and today has been my first day on the packs. I loved the class last night very useful.
Had my 4 packs today and have not been too hungry. I've noticed that the packs seem to keep me full for 2 hours then I start getting hunger pangs until the next one, but overall not too bad. Having said that I am off to bed now cos am getting hungry and theres nothing left until tomorrow.
Hope everyone is doing ok xx

So you still sleeping Pymster?
Well its day 4 done and dusted for me and I am still feeling hungry between packs but its manageable. I have not tried all the packs and the only 2 I dont like at all are the porridge and the spicy curry soup. Looking forward to my weigh in and 2nd session Thursday.
Happy week xx

Hi Vanda
In the early days (I'm in wk 6 now) I had early nights or should I say I put myself to bed so I wouldn't feel tempted to eat as I was hungry!! I think I am used to it now, sometimes I'm starving and at other times struggle to have all 4 packs! I went to my first social on Saturday and was so proud that i didn't touch any food or alcohol, I just danced solid for about 3 hours!!! So that's the exercise for this week!! It becomes a part of life after a short while, I promise it gets easier.

Hi Vanda, keep it going your doing great, ketosis must be kicking in very soon if not already, and that makes life a lot easier the hunger seems to just disapear.it will all be worth it come weigh in . funny how we all like differnt things i loved both porridge and curry soup but struggle a bit with some other soups tabassco helps. Love the bars but not the toffee one i felt sickly after it, fine with the others though. will look forward to how you have done this week x
Pymster your doing great well done on your losses x

Well done for all that dancing Pymster, special hoorah to not eating/drinking on your night. That takes some doing but its something we have to get used to for a while eh? I've not been so hungry today so hopefully the worse has passed, although to be honest its not been that bad so far.
I'm looking forward to trying some bars this week lozzer. I'm getting worried about my taste buds I actually enjoyed the shepherds pie tonight

Well done Pymster great loss you must feel fab and its nice when your hard work saturday paid off .
Yes its funny how you soon get use to the food packs the first time i made the chilli i thought OMG how am i meant to live on that , a six month old baby would consume more, but now its fine and you soon get use to the taste . The bars are lovely but strangley enough not the chocolate coated ones which i was looking forward to the most .Loving all the shakes but find some soups a bit dodgey. Good to try it all though, but tonight i will only choose what i want . take care lorraine
