I'm feeling much better today, I've done an insanity workout as punishment! Lol. I'm going to just order soups, shakes and porridge next week. I think the bars are too much like food for me to stay in control. I really want to focus now, the guilt was terrible, and I want to get in that ted baker outfit for the wedding!

Hope you're enjoying your new steps! Xx
 
Hey Hun just finished my first step 2 meal :) way too much food lol x I love the bars kinda need them now aswell. I tried to workout once on SS and I felt seriously atrocious how do you do it!?

By eating f***ing toast!! Stupid greedy brain! I have worked out at the gym 3 times and done one insanity since starting. I only felt ill after the gym once but I'm taking it a lot easier now and not running or really pushing it. It's more when I'm at work that I feel faint. My face is still red after insanity today though! Haha!

I'm glad you're not feeling hungry after your food. I hope I feel like that! Are you gonna post some pics??

I'm going to ask my CDC for a few extra packs next week do when I'm working late I don't feel faint at work.

Xx
 
Just one an incentive at work, well chuffed!! Shame I don't get to keep the £1000 prize for myself! Is it selfish to make the staff wait until I've done my 10 weeks SS?! Haha

Put me in a fabulous mood and after being good today and doing my hard workout I'm over yesterday's blip. I really hope I still lose a bit this week. Going to go to the gym tomorrow, Sunday and hopefully Monday too :)
 
Day 20!

Hmm, I know I've had a slip this week but it's been the only one and I've done much better this time round than the first time. I'm happy that I've been able to get over it and get right back to 100%. I think maybe I needed to do it to understand how disappointed I would feel in myself and that it just wasn't worth it. I smelt those chocolates again last night and the smell turned my stomach!

I really hope I have a loss this week. Even it's only 1lb!

Had a lovely apple porridge and going to have leek and potato soup in a bit. Taking my toffee bar to work to split in two, seemed to work last night :)

Sounds like you're having a good day! I also split the bars sometimes. Amazing that 1/2 a bar takes the edge off the hunger and keeps you going for another few hours!

Hope work isn't too stressful and have a great Sunday!
 
Hi ! Can I join this thread, you all sound really great and very motivated and I could really do with some support? I'm doing SS and I'm on 3 products a day, I normally have porridge in the morning, shake for lunch and a soup in the evening. I was fine the first week and lost 7lbs but I'm having a really bad day today and feeling quite resentful that everyone else in the house (kids and hubby) are all having really yummy food and I'm sitting here with a bowl of soup (which is lovely but.....) I think I'm just missing eating real food. Please tell me that everyone has moments like this and that it will all get better because I'm really pleased with the results so far and don't want to cheat or let myself down. Sorry for the rant, just needed to get it off my chest !:wave_cry:

Hi Lindylou!

Of course you can! It's so great that you've taken the step and started Cambridge!

It's really tough but the pay-off is amazing if you stick with it. We're all in the same boat here and I love the support of like-minded people that minimins offers.

I know what you mean about being resentful. I've had a few days like that recently myself. It can be so hard when you just crave something you can't eat. I try and remember why I'm choosing to have my shake/soup and how I will feel when I succeed. I hope your family are supportive. I also like to have a list of little things to do during family mealtime so after I've had my meal and served everyone else's I can go and have a soak or paint my nails in another room :)

I'm on 3 packs a day too, how are you finding it?

Xxx

Hi tizzy!

Yeah had a good day 'til the hubster annoyed me and I ended up leaving my soup! Grrr.
Work was good, had the minty choc bar. Bloomin' heck! It was hard work! My teeth ached afterwards! haha :) think I'll stick with the others though :)

Enjoy your Sunday! X
 
Hi ! Having a MUCH better day today. Hubby taken kids to Karate and I've had the music up loud and done a whole load of housework and a big bottle of water. I bought myself a bikini for my holiday in a size smaller and tried it on this morning, doesn't look too bad so that's spurred me on to keep going and make it look even better. I love this site and all the support it gives. My hubby is being great and I've told a few of my close friends but my parents don't know because my Mum will just nag and my Dad will just try to force feed me cake and chocolate lol ! My next weigh in is Wednesday night so if I can just keep going until then hopefully my loss will make me feel better for the next week. Thanks for the support x

Aw, I'm glad you've got support from your family, my mum knows and although she wants to be supportive I know she really thinks I'm a bit daft and faddy! Lol
It's good you have a lovely small bikini for your hols. I'm using the same principal by having my skinny jeans hung up in my bedroom. I can't fit in them yet, but I will!! Lol

Wednesday night is not too far away, I'm sure you'll has another good loss :D
 
Officially done 3 weeks now :D

Cant believe how much better I feel already and I've only lost 18 so far! I'm getting compliments from people at work and my husband keeps telling me I look a lot thinner.

I have a really long way to go but after some ups and downs this week I'm raring to go for the next one and beyond.

I actually get excited thinking about all the yummy stuff I can pick up at my weigh in! Haha. I'm a wally. -gonna get some flavourings this week, and strawberry and chocolate shakes so I can make mousse.

On a side note though I did try the crisp recipe with a leek and potato packet and it was a bloomin disaster! Oops! Oh well lesson learned, haha ;)
 
Well done on your 3 weeks and you weight loss ! Does everyone seem to have a bad week (loss-wise) in week 2? I've got my weigh in on Wednesday night and I've just weighed myself and on my scales it looks like I've only lost 1 or 2 lb. I do feel better though and my tummy is a lot flatter, just hoping that the lower loss is normal and just part of the process of my body adjusting to the VLCD.
