Hi all hope your all doing well and keeping motivated,
Well i am really feed up today I have had experience with great success on vlcd before, but for some reason this isn,t working for me...!!:(
I am on day 11 would normally have lost 10lbs by now, i have stuck too it 100% mainly just packs, drink enough water etc, had 1 wobble but even then i only had 800kcal, but the scales aren,t shifting haven,t lost anything in 4days!!
I am seriously thinking of giving up which isn,t me at all but i am weight loss driven and if the lbs come off i stay strong, what i hace lost i could have lost eating 1200kcals a day
oh i,m down!!!
 
I think it's the heat making us hang on to water, there's a few of us not losing or only losing 1lb.

I also think having done vlcd's in the past doesn't help as you never get the same losses that you get the first time round.

Hang on in there, you will start losing and it'll all even out - easier said than done I know!
 
Thanks Hun i am trying too stay stong but its so hard when you give up so much and lose so little i could always stick too it before because the lbs kept coming off and always had a great loss in 1st month which made you feel so much better you could keep going, I do feel bloated with the heat will try too stick with it!! thanks for the support x

Totally know where you're coming from!

I swore I'd never go back to vlcd's but having tried SW and WW and gained weight on both, this is the only thing that works, it may be slow but at least it's going the right way I guess!
 
I'm feeling the same way today! I feel really physically hungry but can't understand why! My scales haven't budged since Sunday!!!
 
I read that, when its hot you should drink more fluids to fluish out the excess! not sure how that works if you feel bloated but apparently it does! oh and avoid caffeine that makes you retain water!
 
I have been the same, only lost 0.6 lb last week and put that down to TOTM, so expected a nice whoosh this week, so far in 4 days I have lost 0.6lbs, I am 100% and have been drinking 4 litres of water/fluids a day, but it is still not coming off. Dont know what else to do......
 
I am in the same situation as you Linda, i am 100% don,t drink coffee or coke zero etc just water don,t always even have tho veg as been too hot too have a meal been having shakes, I have lost nothing this week yet, its so frustrating i am at my wits end as started this as i was just getting over pneumonia just wanted too get the weight off! and i have now started too feel actual hunger and my ketosis has been kicked out really don,t know whats happening!!
 
I am in exactly the same situation a you SO frustrating, think all of us only ever do an extreme diet like this too achieve the big weight losses, so its awful when you weigh and there is NO change!! I am hungry today too:(
I'm feeling the same way today! I feel really physically hungry but can't understand why! My scales haven't budged since Sunday!!!
 
I have been hungry this week too.... wasn't last week.
 
Give it time.... it'll go.... make sure your having extra water to compensate for the heat!!!

Dont give in.... It'll go!! X
 
I'm OK today... :) have no idea what was going on yesterday, although the night before I had my tea late (protein +veg) and then a shake before bed. I have a feeling I may have kicked myself out having the too close together. Just going to be strict 4 packs + veg and milk for a couple of weeks. I'm sure having the protein slows me down (which I know sounds completely ludicrous!)

I actually got some good results from a medical test yesterday, and I wanted immediately to binge. I defo reward myself with food. So I think head had a part in it too!
