Step 1 Sole Source + CC's C diary 2013

Hey Cupcake, it's so easy to see from your posts how determined you are and that your mind is in the right place. It really is about staying focused and positive and remembering the long term "health" goal. The only person who will stop you losing your 80lb by Christmas is you, and I don't think you'll let that happen! Well done on the diary, Hayley is right, definitely an inspiration x
 
Yay cupcake, still going strong like a wee champion :) that's my girl!!! Well done mrs!

Keep going forward. You'll get there :)

And Oriental chilli is my favourite!

Thanks guys - blushing here ;)


Morning all!

I've been told its humid but I'm freezing still - long trousers and cardi plus scarf and shoes today. If this is Ketosis, then it must be horrid when it actually is cold!

I'm dreaming of new clothes now, and fitting back into the ones I've grown out of. My size 22's are hanging off me and I can put them on and take them off without undoing any button or zip! I think tonight I will have a look though and see ifI can find my size 20's. And see if they fit.

Think it's a choccy tetra day, plus another utterly delicious oriental chilli, and possibly a hot vanilla depending on the cold factor.

Have a great day everyone - drink lots!

Xx
 
So, another day nearly over and guess what - I'm cold! Freezing! I've had a lovely chilli soup and it was divine :)


Drank 3litres today, and have been a request visitor to the ladies! I'm quite enjoying bringing the water now. It feels quite refreshing! Never thought I'd get used to such amounts but I have. My skin is looking brighter too. All good.

Having a hot butterscotch later - yummy :)

Nearly reached midweek xx
 
Morning!


So today, the 23rd day, sees me in a dress (Lordy!) and a size 20 :) and.............. It is a little loose in places! DD has described me as 'going in a bit' at the middle but I still have a massive behind ;) I think it was a complement!
I certainly feel a tiny bit slinkier - probably the first time I've felt like this. It feels a little bit weird tbh. More head shifting to do.

Have a great day one and all xx
 
You are rocking it!! It's so exciting to find your clothes looser and changing what you're wearing because you can get more comfortable! I'm so happy for you!! I find myself cold on this diet a lot but tell myself that I'm burning calories to warm up and that makes me feel ok with it and shiver away! Love reading your success and excitement - btw, get used to the blushing ...it's only gonna get better!
 
Evening all! Thanks for the words of encouragement - it really helps :)


Had an ok day, I think I've been grumpy though :( had another soup for tea, and am currently chomping my way through small squares of the chewy malt bar - they are yummy! My tribe are munching maltesers so it almost feels like I'm joining in! I'm learning how to work this plan, and it seems to be fitableinable (new word) with life more and more. Just not with being away from home or socially eating. I'm going to work on that.

I'm proper tired tonight, so I'm looking forward to my evening hot shake before bed, and a nice warm bed. I'm sleeping more, for sure. It saves on nibbling though!

Hey Cupcake, Good to read about the dress and slinky feeling. Your diary is so positive I can't imagine you being grumpy, we all have our days though. I think your body changing after you've been telling yourself you'll be big forever is an amazing thing to see and feel. I really enjoy it, especially as it happens quite quickly on CWP (compared to other diets). Hope you get a good nights sleep and here's to another 100% day tomorrow x
 
I think you lose weight sleeping or awake - wouldn't it be nice to wake up and it all be done :)! Ah well, I guess we have to do the work ...and you are! As you go along you find all of the things that work for you and what doesn't. You're doing terrific!
 
I'm sorry you're not feeling great. Take it easy and be kind to yourself. Sleep, relax, drink plenty and hopefully it'll be over before you know it!
 
Hello lovely Cambridge friends!


I've given myself a good talking too, and got off my feeling sorry for myself step. I'm a bit coldy/hay fevery but that is no excuse! I've been to the gym, drank a load of water, and will get an early night. I've also had some marigold bouillon which is only 5 cals to warm me up as an extra, and that seems to have helped.

Having had a hysterectomy, I have no idea when totm is, so I'm also thinking that this could be a touch of that too.

So, positivity is mine. I'm going to battle through this foggy bit. I'm worth it. Xx
 
Morning!

Slept very well for once, but have woken with a killer headache. So totm seems a distinct but absent probability!

The first clothing casualty is my nightie, which I will replace today as my tribe are traumatised by the sight of everything escaping ;) size 22 is not more, so I'm going to pop to marks to see if there are any nice 20's or even 18's at a squeeze. Interesting times.

I'm also considering a hula hoop for generally making a fool of myself with, but also trying to tone up the midsection. I've heard good things but am I brave enough to try?!

Happy Friday everyone - I hope it's a great one for us all xx
