Day 4
Morning all,
forgot to get on scales this am before I downed a pint of water!! never mind!
I am now on day 4 and havent had any head aches or really any major hunger pangs but today I have got that real lack of energy feeling, took loads of effort to get up and down the stairs just now!!lol(god how pathetic is that!!lol) I am just going to go off and have a banana shake and then get on with the day.
Got to clean/re-organise the whole house today, christmas tree+decs+lights etc to come down and get some sort of normality back to the house!
Also got a pile of ironing that needs putting away(good thing that i ironed it last night!) and then bed rooms need to be put back to normal after having people to stay for new yr etc
no doubt I will sleep tonight! the good thing is that being this busy keeps me out of the kitchen or thinking about food.
Have a good day all Lou X

day 5
OMG!! I cant believe the weight loss this time......I have been weighing every morning, well apart from yesterday when I forgot and had a pint of water first! But on wed am I was 13.10 1/2........weighed just now and I am 13.0.........just proves how much crap I was eating and shoving in my body and how much of that I dont need!!Official wi is on wednesday AM.
I need to get to 12stone for my dress to go round me again(was this weight when I bought it)........but would love to get to 11-11 1/2 for it to fit fab..its one with the lacings at the back so can go larger(which is what it was on when I first got it ) and smaller, which is what I would love it to be on 24th march!!
We are going out today to have a look at rings and suits in the sales today! getting all excited now about the wedding.....really starting to appreciate that its actually happening.....well we have been together for 13yrs..so we have taken our time!!!!
Have a good day all

Well done! What a fab weight loss! I'm on day 3 of CD so I know exactly how you feel. And I also struggle doing the lunch for next day - it is sooooo hard!
Keep up the good work - you will be at your goal long before the big day - you won't even be able to see your back thru the laces of the dress!!

Busy busy busy!!
Well done so far Lou.
Can totally empathise with you. I did LL then CD in Oct 2005 - and in 4months lost 4stone and went from 15.3 to 11.3, size 22 to 12/14. Was so pleased with myself and Cambridge ... even went onto train as a CDC beginning of 2006.
Then I lost the plot - went on a 2week fantastic all inclusive (I've paid for the food so I must eat it - WTF??!!) holiday to Egypt - put on a stone. Then had a c*** rest of year with family pronblems etc ... proved I learnt nothing, took my eye off the goal and have since regained another stone and half.
I'm back on it again now - and MUST do something about it ... but MUST also learn about myself and the way I view food (at the moment I use it when I'm down/depressed/stressed as a reward).
Good luck on your journey - much harder the second (third etc etc) time but you know it works and you can do it ... and you have a fantastic incentive too.

Still glugging the water today and having a few black coffees here and there....the weather today is so miserable..need something to warm me up! Need to go out in the wind and rain now to get my boys from school...
have a great afternoon

One week in
Morning all!!
Well here we are 1 week in and all going well. I got on the scales this morning and I was 13.10 1/2 last wed...today I was 12.12 !!!!!!!!I cant believe it 12lboff in one week!!! official wi now is tomorrow night so dont know what that will show.should be about the same as this am I guess.
But here I was thinking I wouldnt get back down to 11.1/2 st in time to fit in my wedding dress!!!! all I can say is....BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!!lol
I know obviously the weight loss slows down and in some ways the journey gets tougher but the days are ticking down and the incentive is getting closer and bigger!!!
Hope you are all doing well and staying strong!
hugs to all Lou X

How long before an evening wi should I stop drinking water/fluids?
I usually wi in the morning but due to childminding commitments at the mo its easier to go in the evening. But was just wondering how long it would take for a pint of water not to show on the scales?
WI is at 8pm tonight. I have stopped drinking now(coffee at about 4 pm)...is this too early? or too late??? its now 5.50
thanks Lou X

Finally...Life begins
Hi Lou,
Sorry only just seen your message. I get weighed in at 8pm and stop drinking after work at 5pm. I sometimes have my soup or tetra before weigh in, but usually make sure I have a clear hour and at least two wees before weigh in! Im usually gasping for a drink when I am being weighed so probably leaving it too long, but I hate to think I weigh a couple of pounds heavier, becuase of water!
How did you get on? dying to know!
