ButtErFlies-In It To Win It

Broxi, I'm so pleased for you, I knew you could do it. :8855:

Every now and then it's bound to happen, hopefully not to often. :giggle:

Us butterflies are strong, and beautiful and soon to come out of our shells.:wee:
 
Hi Louie :)

Nice to see you on here. Hope all is well with you. xx
 
Hi Nikki, I'm fine thanks, don't get chance to come on here every night what with one thing and another, but just been having a good read to see how everyone is.

I was really fed up last week, on the scales it showed I had stayed the same, but the fractions on the scales the week before said -15 and last week it said -1 so I made it 1lb in my head cus I could not cope with losing nothing. So this week I lost 7lbs but I put 6lbs on here to compensate for the 1lb I deducted the week before.

I was only trying to keep positive in my own head and it worked cus of the good weight loss this week.

Plus I drank loads of water. xx
 
Louie.. you were only an ounce out, so you should have left it. You know you've lost more anyway and if you loose another ounce, then add it on, lol..

Glad you've had a better week and 6lb is a good loss (yes 6), there are times when too much is going on to do much else or think of anything else... But we're here as soon as you get time to come back on.

xxxx
 
Nikki good luck with the packing and your move, its supposed to be the one of the most stressful things in life (I hate packing and moving) hope it all goes smoothly for you hun.

Tintagel honey Im so jealous I want to come too haha have a fab time, thats my idea of heaven.

Loui thats a great weight loss well blooming done hun really pleased for you.

How hot was it today, I was outside for half an hour before I walked up to school and my face is burning, def needed the water today.
 
Hi everyone! Not been on here for a while cos I just seem to be online when everyone else is offline!!!! Been catching up with whats been going on with you all - wow! You're busy girls arent you?? House moves, hairstyles, eyelash extensions, retreats, loads of lovely weight losses etc... Keep up the great work everyone - you're all so inspiring!
I've had a busy time of it recently with work and kids and home and I've started going for walks in the evenings just to get some 'me' time. I try to imagine my fat melting away from me with every step I take cos thats the only thing that keeps me going!!!! I've found the last few weeks a hard slog to be honest cos, since I went on that course and ate, I seem to be constantly hungry even though I'm back in ketosis. I'm determined to stick with it though cos I can't really see any viable alternative to CD for me at the moment. I so want to do this and I just try to keep focussing on the losses. Reading how everyone else is doing really helps me to keep the faith cos sometimes I just want to give in and go wild in Tesco with a trolley, several aisles and a credit card (and I'm not talking broccoli here!!!). Its so so so hard though isnt it? Ah well - maybe one day soon, I'll come on here at a more sociable time and say hi!!!! Stay strong Butterflies - you're all fab!!!! xxxx
 
hello girls, sorry not been on all day, i had a really bad morning, sat on the loo for an hour in tears this morning trying to go, thought i was going to pass out, managed to drive to my friends and she went to chemist, they would only give her senna tablets for me, and told me to stop cd, not listening, had loads of black coffee, and fags, (i dont really smoke only occassionally) then 2 tablets and woo hoo movement, sorry but thought id share lol, feel loads better now, went to my friends daughters sports day and caught sun,
nikki i soo want some salmon and asparagus, i hope you enjoyed your salmon and salad mmmm,
hope your all well, i will be on tomorrow as soon as i get up, and around all day, sorry for being so absent, night all and take care, xxx
 
hi wannabelovely, just looking at our losses and they have been different but add up to about the same, interesting how this thing works xx im always on late lately xx
 
I've noticed that too Claira! At first, I was a bit down about how slow the last few weeks have been but, when I started checking, I realised that actually I'm just about the same as everyone else with a similar amount to lose. Its so weird how you eat and drink exactly the same things every day and every week but you don't lose weight evenly! The body is a strange thing isnt it? (well mine is anyway!!!) xxx
 
my weekly losses have been good, but overall you have lost 1lb more, you had a great first 2 weeks, are you on ss? xx
 
Yes I'm on ss - although I did go on a work course the other weekend and ended up coming off it as I couldnt face telling strangers what I was doing and they were asking me why I wasnt eating! I gained 5lbs in 2 days - and that was eating meat and veg. I got straight back on ss and lost that weight and another 3lbs in week 5 so that pleased me! I also had to go to a family party last saturday and had to do the same there cos I havent told the rellies I'm on it (they'd just mock me). I stuck with protein rich foods and no carbs or booze at all but still had a 1lb gain. I've now got rid of that and hope I'm going to show a loss on my weigh-in day on Saturday! Its unfortunate that, since coming onto CD, I seem to have had loads of invites for things involving food. I've avoided most of them but there's a few I have to attend - like a great big Italian meal for a friend who's leaving work soon! Thats going to be really hard to get through!!! I didnt realise how much my life revolved around eating and drinking until I came onto CD!!!!
How about you? Are you on ss? Are you doing ok? You certainly seem to be judging by your losses!!! xxx
 
sorry, yes on ss, i went on hols ate once small piece chicken and salad, going to eat chicken and cucumber every 4 weeks next is mums 50th then next is my bday, ive now told everyone cos its easier, or say ive got a funny tummy and dont fancy anything, cant let anything get in my way anymore, must go to bed, my partners waiting with a horror dvd, and keeps moaning at me, your doing well keep at it take care xxxx
 
Morning Ladies.

Thanks Witchy, I hope the move will be ok. Though had a row with my BF last night,he asked me what time I'd be over on Sat and had decided not to help me move and not tell me, as thought I had enough ppl helping me. It sounded like he was asking me to come over for a cuppa tea! I mean, my parents are helping me move and they are in their 60's, my brother in law and he has a bad back and my son who is 16!. I flew off the handle and now think, I hope this isn't now the start of things to come. Had 2nd thoughts last night. He apologised, and said he's now coming to help, but still don't feel right. Anyway I do think Men just aren't on the same planet as us women at all :blahblah: :brainfart:!

Wannabe, it's hard having social functions isn't it? This is only a suggestion, but if you are at a a BBQ or a party, you could get yourself a plate of food, but not much on it and just be seen with that on the table. You do need to stay strong and not eat any of it, unless its say celery or plain chicken of course. Then not many ppl will bother asking anyway, if they do, just say you are detoxing this month. Most ppl will usually answer that with "I wish I could do that". If you don't feel that you can come straight out with, "I'm on CD" I mean.

There is a thread that was going around yesterday on socialising, it had some great tips :worthy:

Up early this morn, charity shop is coming to collect some furniture at 9 and my sister is coming over to help me pack the rest of the kitchen up at 9.15. All go today, will be packing me bedroom mainly and the cleaning is tomorrow.

Hope everyone had a good night sleep,
Nikki xxxx

Aw Nikki dont take it to heart, they are on another planet just think of it that way, plus this diet does heighten our emotions.

We never argue but since Ive been on this diet we have argued alot, and apparently its always my fault hehe bad me

Heck ive woke with TOTM looming and the most horrid stomach pains, they really hurt and my stomach has swollen dramatically hope it doesnt affect my weight this week now ive finally got my head sorted.

Im spending they day looking at disney holidays for next August if im having a new bod I want a fab holiday to celebrate and I think this will be fun.
 
Hi everyone!

Wannabelovely, it is hard sometimes, but them it is good in between :D, have you considered going up the plans? I am much more content and happy now (I can't tell you about weight loss yet, but soon).

Claira, how are you feeling? What happened?

Haha, no, sometimes men are from another planet after all Eternalflame :D. But he changed his mind since you did "explain" to him what you felt, :D, from what I have heard I think he is a keeper!
 
morning, or is it afternoon, just been sorting through clothes, got into my fav jeans from next, size 16, they were tight last week, i am feeling so happy, bought new jeans in a 14 in sale and a shirt 16, im still in 18 and 20 on top cos of my boobs, got a 34 hh bra and a bit tight on cups but they gotta get smaller at some point, got rid of all my long jumpers, when i did trinny and sussannah they said dont wear a top that covers your tummy it makes you look fatter, but i felt more comfy in them, now there all gone, got new sz 14 pants, they fit lovely, can now bin all my others and get new,
asa thanks for asking, feel better now, but still think i could go again so gonna take some more senna today and keep drinking strong coffee, lol.
how are you doing? xxx
 
Thx Witchy, men eh! Glad you're feeling better Claira, and look at you in new skinny clothes, well done and hope you feel fab in them too.. Hello Jakki, hope you are doing ok?

Well, met my new CDC, very conservative ladie, gave me more info then last CDC did, which was good! Then had to re-fill med details info in again.

Anyway (get to the point Nikki), got on her scales and I STS . I was gutted, have done so well this week AND stood on my scales just before I left and had lost 3lb since my last WI on Sunday. So how can that be right?? Feeling a little robbed, to say the least. Will have to go by her scales now anyway, but oooohh I could have :slap: her. Not very nice to say and would never do it, but my emotions are high at the moment and to be told that, when I knew I'd lost 3 at least, is a justified feeling, lol. I bet.. when she saw my face when I was on the scales, she must have thought "got a right sort here" lol.

Well you have to laugh don't you, not much I can do about it now and I am not going to give in thats for sure! xxx
 
nikki my cdc gets annoyed with me cos i go by my scales not hers, i started cd with leftover stuff from last time, so had done about 10 days b4 seeing her, and im not sure i'll be staying with her, i like to chat and she does appointments every 15 mins so its in weigh get food and leave, its not enough for me,
how long do you all spend with your cdc?
anyway what im saying is pick one set of scales for your head, maybe yours, and use cdc for putting on paper and get to goal on theres then you have some leighway on your scales, hope that makes sense, put your 3lb loss on here with your scales, we know you have done well, then you you will also be under 200lb lol xxx
big hug x
