Ding Dong the Enemy's dead!

[kered]

Oh yeah, forgot about that, meant to sky+ it. There was something I was reading on the net the other day that some thought it was a conspiracy by Bush, and it never even happened, all a set up. Jeez, what shallow lives some people lead eh!

Never forget that day ever.

Talking about Anniversaries, it was the anniversary of Diana the other day too - 14 years. Where have all THOSE years gone!

 

[JanD]

God yes - she'd have been 50 now - can you imagine that?!

They're the 2 things in my memory that are those 'you'll never forget where you where when ...' things.

'Never even happened'! Jeeeez!! xx

Sounds as though TFR is going swimmingly Mary, knew it would. You can get rid of that gain real soon. It must be worth getting rid of the enemy for 7lbs though. You must feel so much better without it already.

You've done a sterling job so far, just keep it up for the next 10 days (I think!) and then you've got your holiday to look forward to, lucky you.

Thank you Bev, this has been my best day so far.

Well I was laying in bed this morning, and NO weird dreams today, but just a craving for a Cointreau with Ice........maybe something to do with the lack of alcohol this week too

Anyway, my breath felt a little stinky today, so I did a ketostix test and waheyyyy, the ketosis Fairy has come to visit me - well helloooo, thanks for calling.

Sneaky WI today showed another 1lb loss, so thats a loss of 6lbs since I started and more importantly, all my enemy gain has now gone. Now to knuckle down and lose some more. Ideally would love an 8lb loss by next Wed, and then a 4lb loss the following week. Hope I am not being too optimistic, but this is my usual sort of loss on LT. Fingers crossed.

Day 3 going extremely well. Had 2 shakes up to now and will have my last one around midnight. I am drinking about 3 litres of water a day, but a slight cheat, I am adding about a teaspoonfull (if that) to each half a litre, it just helps me drink it better and it doesnt seem to have any effect on the losses.

Edit to add what I am adding to the water - just no added sugar squash, when I was reading it back I noticed I didnt say what I added, and I just know you would all have thought Vodka.....

You know us so well .... or is it that we know YOU so well??? :giggle:

Glad the ketosis fairy has arrived - on the 3rd day too - very quick, lucky you!

You'll sail through this Mary and look how it's just dropping off you!! Brill! xx

 

[kered]

Yeah, I was quite surprised on how quick she came to visit, nice to see her.

I think we all know each other fairly well after all these years eh Jan?

 

[JanD]

I think so Mary!

OOOOO! I've only just noticed that your avatar is crying!! Awwwww sad! xx

 

[kered]

Never noticed the tears before...........will change it tonight

 

[kered]

All changed now

 

[JanD]

It's funny that isn't it? I'd always just thought it was blinking and thought it was good - don't know why I suddenly noticed the tears ... I'm liking the new one though! I'd love to be in that hammock!!! xx

 

[kered]

Yeah, I never noticed the tears before either - strange huh!

Oh yes, after a long nightshift, that hammock looks divine.

Day 4 going good, although I am feeling a little hungry right now, but I am sure it will pass.

Delighted to see the scales down another 1lb today, thats 7lb so far - waheeyyyyyyyy.

Back in work for my 3rd nightshift, usually this would have been my first night off, the way I am feeling hungry right now, I am pleased I am in work.

 

[kered]

Decided I am going to have a meal and a drink on Monday night, its the only night I can do anything, then I am back to work on Wednesday.

I will probably have chicken veg and rice, the rice to take me out of ketosis, and I am going to be having a drink of Vodka and Cherry Juice...........all planned out That will be one on my goals, but hey, still all good.

 

[JanD]

Well you need to be a bit flexible and kind to yourself Mary. If that keeps you on track the rest of the time it's nothing!

Make sure you stay good while I'm away or I'll be down there to sort you out!! xx

 

[kered]

I thought that too Jan.......I promise, I will be good - I might have one more night having a sensible meal and drink on my next four off, just to break it up and have something else to look forward to.

 

[JanD]

Just as long as you're careful re the ketosis thing hon xx

 

[kered]

I will be - dont worry Hence the rice. Only a couple of drinks too, not a normal night

 

[SandraB]

Sorry Mary, sorry Jan, put my previous post in the wrong place! Got to remember how this site works

 

[kered]

Hi Sandra, great to see you around here again.

Weighed again today, and down another 1lb. Thats 8lb since Wednesday, biggest smile ever.

Cant wait for tomorrow though for my chicken.....drooling at the thought of it.

Hi Sandra, just seen your other post. Yes I am back on LT, but just for 15 days to lose the fat I gained since I gave up smoking. I gained 6lb but since last year I am about a stone heavier anyway.

I have lost 8lbs since Wednesday, taking me to 11st 4lb. Ideally I would love to get back to about 10st 7lb, but aiming to get to just under 11st for this holiday, then I will probably just follow one of the plans, WW or SW.

Maisey is absolutely fine Sandra, still my darling little girl. How is your cat.......sorry I cant for the life of me remember his name.

Oh and another update girls. Thats me done the HRT tablets for 4 weeks, and I feel GREATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. I have not had a flush in the last week - life is good.
