Thank you Abbie!! (flabby bum bum!! I think you need to change your name to "smiling-gorgeous!!") 13lbs!!!! I def want a piece of that!! lol! But I'm used to smaller losses than other people, so I'm hoping for between 4-6lbs for my first proper week! Anything else and I'd be over the moon!!
Just wanted to say a massive thank you for all the support everyone has given me, on here and facebook!! It's been really appreciated!
I've got through 3 days!! Woop woop!! (SS+ on Monday, SS Tuesday, SS Wednesday!!) Here's to SS 100% today!!
I've joined a few of the other girls (Frannie, Kez and yummy mummy) in a "lose 30lbs in 10 weeks" challenge!! Yesterday was the first day so think this will keep me motivated!!
I've also joined the "Chubby wubblies" team on the CD forum, for support and competetion!!
All of this is helping!! As is my continous support from Katie, Ali, Abby, Flabbybumbum-Abbie, and Fed-up-and-fat Charlie!!
I don't know what I'd do without minimins!! I do know that I'd probably be another 2-3stone heavier and stick thinking eating whatever I wanted whenever I wanted was OK!
I had a low day yesterday, stupidly went food shopping with my mum and sister to Asda, I was fine going around the shop, the food on the shelves didn't even bother me, but then they went to the cafe! To be honest, I should've waited for them outside in the car, but I had to feed Bella, so I sat there sipping water whilst they had burger and chips (sis) and sausage roll and chips (mum!)
I'm not going to lie to you - it was like bloody torture!! I wasn't even "hungry" I just wanted it!!
I ended up nicking 3 chips and then feeling so bad I tried to sick them back up!! Not good! I ended up making my mum feed Bella so I could go and look at the nice size 16 clothes as thinspiration!
I thought I'd gone and bloody ruined 2 days hard work then and knocked myself out of ketosis as chips are like THE worst things I could've picked at! But at the theatre last night, I wasn't hungry AT all, felt full of energy and had absolutely disgusting death breath!! Def ketosis me thinks! Even if its just the start of it!
If there's something this diet has taught me already, its that before I was having whatever I wanted whenever I wanted and not thinking about what it was doing to me / where it was going on me!!
Its like my subconcious mind wasnt linking eating food with being fat! I'm hoping that when the lbs/stones(!) start shifting my mind will be forced to make that link, i.e - im not eating any "normal" foods and am loosing weight!
I contacted my hypnotist yesterday to see if he could help me with CD. I just wanted him to do the same sort of session he did for me with the bread, with this. So just something like "3 Cambridge Diet products ARE enough for you. You don't NEED other foods. You are not hungry, you just WANT the foods."
He can then make me a CD recording of this that I can listen to when I feel like cheating!
It worked with the bread so...... fingers crossed! I'm waiting for his reply! If he says yes I'm there like a shot! lol!
That was yesterday anyway, after a really bad night - because I ate those chips, I missed out a CD meal so I only had 2 yesterday - bad idea!! I was trying to go to sleep and felt like I was blacking out and going really dizzy! V.scary! Not missing a CD product again no matter how much I pick at!
Thursday = a new day! My mind set has totally changed now! I went to the theatre and avoided food, minstrels and other goodies! Even though my mum was trying to convince me to jack it in and go for a meal! SO frustrating!
So now, no matter how hard it is, i'm doing this properly and 100%!
I am going to go to CDC tonight if I can to get some ketosticks, I THINK i'm in ketosis as I'm feeling quite lively, am not hungry (no headaches or nasty side effects!!) and I have the oh-so-lovely haleketosis death breath!!
I've got work today but only half day, so start at 12.00pm. I wanted to get lots of water in before work - but if I do that I won't stop peeing! And I'm working with infants today and can't really pop off to the loo!! oh what to do! lol!
I think I'll do my plan of 1 litre in between 12, 1 litre by 4pm and then another litre after 4pm/through the evening! Makes it sounds easy doesn't it!
Also that way its spread out, so no risk of drowning in water! That story of the woman that died on Lighter Life coz she drank her 4litres of water all at once scared the bee-jesus out of me! So I'm spreading my cautiously out throughout the day!
Right, going to nosey at others pages before I get dressed for work! Bella's out with my mum for the day in the sun, so got some "me" time! again! (had "me" time last night to go to the theatre too!)
I've got some good events coming up to keep me focused!! I'm determined to be slimmer and more energetic for these!
-June 6th - Summer Ball concert in Wembley
-June 12th - My friend's wedding
-July 17th - meeting up with all the uni girls for a night out
-July 24th - treating my mum to a night out in Cardiff Bay (14 weeks in!)
-August 21st - Alton towers!! (17/18 weeks in!!)
-Last week of August / First week of September - holiday abroad!!
-21st September - OH's birthday
-15th October - my birthday!! (25 weeks in!)
I'm hoping to be down to 140lbs / 10 stone by Christmas, BUT obviously ANYTHING is going in the right direction!
To get to 140lbs by Christmas week means just under 3lbs/week EVERY week.....from now's weight! That's do-able on CD, surely?? Then i'll work my way up through the plans and then switch to eating healthy as my mainteanance programme!
I'm determined not to try another diet after this!! Just healthy eating and exercise!
