Emilys Diary

well my calculator says i should be having 1540 ish on an up day however i mentioned on a thread earlier i was struggling to consume all that due to coming over from s&s im still in ketosis, so today is my down day and tomorrow i shall be doing an up day following the atkins plan, i do intend to introduce carbs but at the mo i think im just to scared too, because i know i will gain water weight and seeing it on the scales will wind me up and send me over the edge.lol anyway bive spoken to a few people on here so tomorrow i will be aiming to have 2000 cals ive got peanut butter, cheese, cream, meat, fish and veg to get through :) will be consuming 2000 tomorrow :) woop woop im well excited got diabetic choc too, im not diabetic but it takes just like normal choc :) x
 
1540 calories seem low to me! The calculator gives me 1850 on an up day but I've been sticking to 2000/500. I know what you mean about seeing a gain on the scales, I hate it which is why I'm only checking the weight after a down day lol, normally if you gain water it comes off pretty much instantly. I was having pepsi max the other day and gained 4lbs, next down day had just water and bam that was gone plus one more so that was the water retention due to pepsi. I think for you maybe re-introduce carbs slowly? Do you do your down days with food or with slim and save packs? xxx
 
Hello I'm new to judd so looking through people diarys for support :) well done on your DD I did my second one today, and I find them not too bad
Apart from night time when I get the munchies...tonight my mother was eating cheese on toast...was mega temptation ha! X
 
Lol don't you hate it when on a down day and everyones eating round you? I even catch myself thinking my little one is lucky when he has his toast lol! To be honest down days do get easier as you go along, I just make sure to have a lot of water & leave eating late as possible in the day. Crackerbreads are my friend on a down day lol!

Had a sneaky check on the scales, I'm liking what I see ;) lol! Not officially weighing in until Wednesday though. xxx
 
Ooh, got a NSV, well got three
a - my bra is now def too big
b - a size 10 top I couldn't fit into now fits :D
c - leggings I bought a while ago which were a one size (upto a small 14) now fit me

Happy happy me :) xxx
 
Morning hun, yeah I tend to use Atkins bars, slim and save and calorie count in a dd! Today I'm starting the 2000/500 do up day today! I'm going to get to weds wi then start introducing carbs but not loads just a few! I think I'm retaining water I feel so bloated! I took my measurements yesterday so I'm going to check them again in a week or so, I think I sometimes get that fixated on scales and forgot its inch loss that really matters lol! Are you on an up day today too what's your plans for today :) x
 
Morning :) Ooh yeah I think they recommend the diet shakes for down days don't they so you make sure you have enough calories? What do you drink? As I find I'm bloated after I drink anything other than water, I even had a dominos the other day and didn't feel bloated at all which was odd. Did you use to stay close to your 1540 on your other up days? I have to admit, its nice to have the freedom of 2000 calories, I don't hit the 2000 all the time but if I feel like wanting something in the evening and I have calories left over then I know I can have it. Nothing much today, its horrible weather here and the little one was up from 5:30 so I'm hoping he'll nap soon (I wish..) lol how about you? xxx
 
I tend to drink de-caf coffee, de-caf tea sometimes black or with milk, peppermint teas, coke zero, and my absolute fav diet cream soda on both days all the above I drank on S&S and still lost loads as non have citric acid in them!

Well I had planned to stay in and chill but then had a stupid thought of walking to my mums which is just over 4miles it was very wet however feel better than I've done it now though, so that's my exercise for the week! Lol

My oh's kids were up at 6am so I'm pooped too! Early night is needed! Well so far today all I've had I'd is 2 home made peanut butter small cookies in just not hungry at all it's an up day too I really need to get used to eating more!

Thank you guys, today just felt like crap for some reason, really ratty & just wanting to shout at everyone. Think the lack of sleep to be honest! Little one now prefers it if his curtains are slightly open otherwise he'll scream until its open so I know why hes waking up early, would be nice if he went to sleep earlier too! Hopefully this won't last long, hes back in school next Wednesday - can.not.wait!

I'm stuffed after my up day today & hoping to be in bed after coronation street tonight. xxx
 
Hope ur feeling better tomorrow hun and have good sleep tonight xxx

Morning well today I had a long sleep! Little one didn't go to sleep until 9 in my bed - so that meant the curtains were closed, and we woke up at half 9 :) So today feel a bit better than yesterday. Weighed myself as I had a bit of a bad up day (went to 2200 calories!!) and was pleasantly surprised that I stayed the same :D So hoping for a little loss for tomorrows official weigh in, but so far I'm happy. Going to catch up on peoples diaries now, little ones dads taken him out to the park while I'm meant to be tidying up, but when its only toys on the floor it won't take 5 minutes to do. xxx
 
Hello Em I am keeping my fingers crossed you see a loss tomorrow. Lie ins are fabulous aren't they? Hugs xx
 
Thank you, I hope I see a loss too ;) lol! Oh yes, they are, especially when its a rare thing in this flat. I'm now even at the point that if I sleep until 7:30 its a lie in lol how are you finding JUDDD? xxx
 
good luck for the morning emily, sounds like a guaranteed loss to come, i'm hoping to have a bit of a long snooze in the morning now grandson has gone, well til at least 9ish x
 
Lol, 9 is a luxury lie in :p aww, when did they go back home? I just realized today I've got no proper trousers for the little one for when he goes back to school - oops! So at the weekend going to be busy around shops trying to get his school stuff together. Down days gone well :) Hope everyones had a good day today xxx
 
That's what I spent this afternoon doing, online buying my daughters uniform, her school has just changed uniform which means brand new everything, I have spent a fortune, I got sons a fee weeks ago, just got one more sweatshirt for her to get then done.

Daughter got the train home at 1pm today the house is silent now. Son was painting on his easel in the garden this afternoon, its been so quiet.
