Day 10! Its really kinda flown over. lol.
I woke up this morning feeling really achy and sore from my little jaunt out with the girls yesterday. Pushing a big/tall 3 year old on a swing for 30 mins when youre on such low cals is quite a workout. And boy do I feel it. My shoulders and arms are sore! lol Zoe hasnt been sleeping all that well lately either and it seems to have all caught up with me this morning. I just feel tired. Like i could sleep for a year. LOL. The girls and I have been sick on and off for so long and that has really messed up our nights.I havent had a full nights sleep in ages. So, hubby took Tabby to school for me and I think Im going to go in and try to get a nap in a bit, once Zoe tires herself out.
Ive had a pint of water and I think Im going to have my shake around 9:30. Today I will try having my 2 boiled eggs for lunch. Same tomorrow. Then i will get weighed on Sunday to see what the scales say. Currently, Im down another pound which brings my total to 12lbs. We shall see.
Have a great day!

Morning lovely!
Yay, a lb is a lb, your still going in the right direction!
Can't wait to hear your results after this week is up!
I've managed to go up a lb somehow, lol! Oh well, not letting it put me off - I knew it'd slow down, and knew this was possible, but have been reassured by S&S it's only water.
Just want the scales to start going in the right direction again!
Have a FAB day!

I don't want to wish my life away, because I'm enjoying myself so much on here alone, but I can't wait to see results week by week! Not just mine, but yours, and everyone else's too! It's such a great motivator!
Thanks my lovely

Ive had a very odd (slightly off) day.
Yesterday I had some trouble in the loo where I COULDNT go (TMI, sorry!) and today, every time I drink water....it makes go go gogooooo. lol. Not good. So Ive only had a litre of water but Ive also had the water from my shake and my dinner and Im having a pint of iced tea now. I will try to get some more water or tea down before bed too, along with my coke zero.
Ive felt tired...so out of it...kinda weak and just blergh all day. And not at all hungry. In fact, I had to force down the second half of my dinner! I just really didnt want it. I wasnt hungry. It was really tasty too. Chili con Carne over a bowl of cauliflower.
Had my 2 boiled eggs for lunch today which was a nice change.
Im glad today is friday. No school run tomorrow. lol.
Anyway, this is the first day I have struggled at all, really. I think if the situation in the bathroom would sort itself I would feel a lot better.
I used the planner for today and since I missed out my little bit of milk allowance (I can work it in because I had the eggs for lunch, so less carbs) in my coffee that I was supposed to have but forgot about I am under for calories by 6 but, more importantly, its got me at "deep ketosis" with 48.2b carbs. Interesting.
Oh well. Day 10 almost done. I will have my bar and my coke zero at 7. Hope everyone has had a great day and has a great weekend!

That's just weird, can't explain it!
You will be in ketosis, so it can't be that I wouldn't think.
Wonder if you have a bug? I can't remember last time I went to the loo (again, TMI lol!)
Could be - see how you go, and if you still feel like this tomo and day after, or it gets worse, get to OOH's GP. Better to be on the safe side.
Hope you feel better soon my lovely xxx
Yes, 5 pints plus all the extra's will take you easily over 4 ltrs. I've been told to cut back to 3 pints per day, that's just over 1.7 Ltrs. Then I have 3 coffee's, and the water in my shakes, meals, etc. I didn't account for that until I read that too much water flushes out micronutrients and elecrolytes.
Don't want to be doing that, so cutting back as from tomo!
Hope you've had a nice night ladies?
I'm off to bed, shattered! Goodnight & Sweet Dreams! xxx

Morning! Day 11!
Im hoping today is better. So far, so good. I just dont have time or patience for tummy troubles today! lol.
Im cutting back on my water today. Im a bit of a water snob....I will admit that right now. I cant drink tap water. I can if its just a glass, but if Im "drinking water" like I am on this diet....I cant stand it. LOL. I can use it fine to make coffee or my iced tea or put it meal packs....not a problem with that at all. But I much prefer to drink bottled water. And Im very specific about that too. I love volvic but it is too expensive. So Ive tried other ones and have found that Asda's water is quite nice. So I buy that. Well, I buy it in a 4 pack of 2litre bottles. You get 2 lots for £2.50. Anyway. I will try to stick to having JUST 1 bottle a day. Sometimes I dont get in my coffees and when I do, I only have 2 anyway. So I think that with my packs and my water and coffee that should be fine. if i still feel like Im having too much, I will cut back a bit more. Ive gotta say, Ive never had the problem of drinking TOO MUCH water before. lol.
So today...its clear and sunny so I may take the girls into town to get some veggie shopping done.
Im going to have my shake around 9:30 and my boiled eggs around 1pm.
Have a great day

Morning lovely!
Time's flying by isn't it! Day 11 for you already!
Fingers crossed tummy troubles are gone now! It could have been excess water.
You're not a snob, a lot of people can't stomach tap water.
Where I used to live, I couldn't drink it as it was hard, but where I am now, and esp since they've taken fluoride out of it, I can drink it fine, as long as it's really cold!
Have a FAB day, especially in this lovely weather!

Today has been rather nice!
Had a nice morning in with the girls. Had my crispy choc shake for breakfast and we kinda chilled out. Then after lunch (I had my boiled eggs) we got ready and went out into town to get a few things. I got some courgettes and some broccoli. Tonight Im having spag bol over a bowl of courgette "pasta", YUM!
My tummy troubles seem to be gone, thankfully. And Ive cut back on water. Ive only had 2 pints so far today, along with my shake and 1 coffee. Im going to have another coffee and then some more water. Im going to have my 2 litre bottle. And thats it.
Off to sort out a snack for the eldest and get the little one out of her buggy - shes finally woken up! lol

Oooh! Just got a text from the hubby - "Do you mind if I get some chips tonight? Just say if you do and its fine!"
Well, I cant very well tell him he cant have something just because I'M on this diet...especially when he was so considerate as to ask me first! So I told him to go ahead.
Except CHIPS ARE MY FAVE. lol. Hot chips with lovely chili sauce and salt and vinegar all over. YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM. But. here's the thing. So what? lol. Im a fatty because I over-indulged, for whatever reason. Part of what this diet has helped me with (alreadY!) is to know that I AM IN CONTROL. And right now is a time for not having chips. its a time for losing weight and getting myself healthier. It doesnt mean I will never havechipsagaineverOMG. haha. No. it means not right now. So the smell will make my mouth water. But I am in control and I am happy with my spag bol and courgette. And i will be happier still with my weight loss at the end of the week and next week, etc etc and happy with the fact that i made a decision, based on what was best for me. The food didnt control me.
Plus, I dont have to cook for anyone but me tonight, now. SCORE! hahahahha.

I cant fault my hubby for his consideration. Hes a gem really. He is also over-weight and has been up and down over the years, so he understands how it feels. Im very fortunate.
I absolutely love chips too. But, there will be other days to have chips. Im gunning for those 3lbs this week, if at all possible, so Im just staying focused on that.
