Arrgghhh thank you!!! I am super happy this morning though. Just 6 weeks ago I was a size 24 - I have just been trying on some old clothes and I can now get back in my size 20 things. I know it is still huge by most standards but that for me is a big milestone. I have been a size 20 for most of my adult life so I feel 'normal' now and being tall I know I can carry it quite well.

I did Atkins for a few weeks before I started CD plus i wasn't eating properly as id just split up with my partner - heatbreak diet and all that - what it means counting last weeks loss I have lost approx 2 stone.

It's given me such a boost to just get my head down and aim for a size 18 )) xx

Right then people, I've had my WI and wait for it.....I've lost 7lbs!!!! That means I've lost 16lbs in just 2 weeks!!!! happy does not even touch how I feel right now......

 

[iro]

If u'r struggling with the hunger why don't u roast up some chicken (I like thighs) and steam some broccoli. It will help and isn't breaking the diet. I have a small meal every day and have no appetite now xxx

Arrrgghhh today has been hell!!!! I'd arranged to go out with a friend and the kids today and I asked her not to make a big picnic and try and keep the focus of the day off food - what did she do but turn up with a huge picnic hamper stuffed with goodies. I could have cried!!! I'm sooo hungry now it is unbelievable

I did resist but man it was so hard xx

I know how you feel. I'm on day 10 and just feel bloated and sicky

 

[ChristyT]

I felt bloated around day 12 but I'm ok now. Perhaps u should contact u'r CDC to discuss u'r tummy pains?? xx

 

[ChristyT]

I've got my 3rd WI in an hour - its only 4 days since my last one so not holding up much hope of a decent loss my CDC is off on holiday tomorrow for 2 weeks tomorrow so hoping for something more credible after she returns.....

HI Iro, I was hunting threads/posts for cheating with chips I ate a handful today as my husband bought some home and I couldn't resist and have resisted cakes, been out to a bar hilst everyone ate and drank and all i did was drink water and ice so annoyed at myself! Hoiw much extra did you drink? You are a week ahead of me, do you have a lot of weight to lose? I have 3 stone and a bit!
