Day 3!
My trousers are loose! My trousers are loose! My trousers are loose!!!
I know I'm probably imagining it as its too soon but I feel sooooo much better today and thinner!!
Yesterday was ok - had loads of energy by the evening. Really enjoyed the spicy tomato soup but didn't have too much water as had already had 5 litres yesterday!! Hoped stopping earlier would delay the inevitable mid-night bathroom dash - it's too cold for all that nonsense!
Even had to venture into the kitchen for something and the dinner smells didn't bother me one bit - huzzah!!
I am feeling a bit more short tempered (sorry OH!!) but no dizziness or headaches - I think the water is doing its bit - as well it should!
Tried plain porridge this morning for a change and really liked it - very warming and yummy. Not getting through enough water today though so am on a mission to cane it before hometime - only had 2 litres so far - naughty!
Trying to get through the choc orange but its hard work - not through anything except I hate chocolate but thought I'd better try all the packs to allow myself as much variety as possible. Am having it hot too to warm myself up so maybe that's the problem... It's very sickly (and brown!) and not my thing but will soldier on to get as many nutrients as possible.
So it seems as though the 'waterbed' feeling I've had is going down and that thin feeling is creeping in.
I want to do this so badly!!! I keep just saying silently to myself - you can do it, don't listen to anyone negative, this is the most important thing I can do for me right now. Am trying not to tell anyone except OH - am just saying that I'm on a detox if anyone notices. Have a feeling they'll all think I'm preggers though!! Was a big drinker (and often) so they'll know something's up. I just don't want the ignorant spiel of 'its unhealthy, its stupid, you look great' crap that got me here in the first place. They know nothing about it and can't be bothered with explanations - its exhausting and they won't understand and will keep trying to get me to quit.
Why do people do that??? :sigh:
Bleurgh this choc shake is really not doing me any favours...:jelous:
So onwards and (weight) downwards dear friends! Am focussing on Saturday weigh in (only 4 days in) and hopefully it will be wonderful!
I've decided to stop beating myself up for how I got to this point and concentrate on the me of the future - thinner, fabulous and full of confidence - and also the me of the present - determined, motivated and selfish! Sorry to say but I think it is important to be selfish and not for my family to put me on a guilt trip or complain or my friends to moan I'm not drinking with them.
I don't care what they say, I'm doing this my way!!
