Liripip's Long Journey

Well wi in yesterday showed a 1lb loss. Not a massive amount but I knew it wouldn't be. Totm makes me so bloated and sluggish. Think the chicken I've been eating wont have helped either and I struggled getting all my water down too. I've got to come off plan for a few days as I'm having a colonoscopy on Tuesday. Really not looking forward to it. I'm worried that I'll see it as an excuse to go mad with eating. I'm going to have to try really hard to stay in control. Sounds so crazy really, surely it's simple enough to not put food in your mouth! I'm going to try to stick to the SS+ guidelines so hopefully I'll not do too much damage. I'll be back on it with a vengeance on Wednesday tho. Not getting weighed for 2 weeks as CDC is away so I'd like a really good loss when I go back. I'm going to try to be 100% from Wednesday til then, no sneaky Saturday night drinks ;)
 
Forgot to say... Had lovely day out with my eldest son yesterday, we went to a Norman castle. Did loads of walking, especially when I took us in the wrong direction after we got of the train lol. He wanted to go to a shopping centre on the way home so he could look in the Apple shop, that boy is obsessed with gadgets and tech!! Really enjoyed it tho, we had a lovely time together. I try to make an effort to do that with him as I feel I hardly see him at the mo. I'm at uni all the time and when I'm home, he disappears upstairs. My youngest is more of a clinger when I'm home so I seem to spend more time with him.

Really must get on with my major project today, don't want to tho, feel so tired. More coffee for me I think!!
 
Hey replied over on the team thread but wanted to say well done over here too xx

Thanks hun, as long as its going down I don't care :) x
 
Exactly, a loss is Good, I lost 1lb, but I know I'm here for a long time so every lb counts. Totm is a major problem when it comes to wi for me. I usually gain 6lbs and take prescription water tablets. I feel sluggish too, Its horrible.
But we will have bigger losses next time :)
Good luck with your colonoscopy, I think your wise to plan ss+ for a few days.
Then as you say, back on track Wednesday :) xxx

Sometimes I seriously wish I was a fella!!! xxx
 
Really wish I didn't have to eat. I'm laid here with heartburn and all I've had is some chicken, bit of salad and a cheeky biccy. Had a drink of milk tho, really missed that! It feels strange - when I'm not supposed to eat I want to pick at everything but now I know I can have something I don't want it! That's messed up!

Managed to crack on with some work today so feel like I've caught up a bit. I'm shattered now tho but finding it hard to get off (again!) wish there was a button to switch off my brain. If I'm not thinking about work or home stuff then I'll have a stupid song stuck in my head. Was postman pat the other day - wtf!

Going to try to get my head down, sleep must come eventually. Nighty night :) xx

I could do with one of those switches too! Hope your heartburn settles, watch out for letting those biccies in. It's a slippy slope x
 
If I thought getting all my water on cd was hard then tonight feels bloody impossible!! I've got 4 litres of bowel prep to drink ready for tomorrow. It's vile :( its got a vanilla flavour to it and it's starting to make me gag. I've not got half way thru my 2nd litre yet, I'm going to be so sick of it by the end of the night. Feeling a bit sorry for myself at the mo, but then I think lots of other people go thru much worse and that makes me feel guilty for feeling like this!

It's weird but I can't wait to get back on cd. I'm so excited about being slim I don't want to waste any more time. I've wasted most of my twenties being fat. 3 days won't make that much difference will it? I don't even want to eat now, very strange lol. That's not like me at all!!

Best get off and have some more vile drink :(

Awww, I feel for you. I'm sure 3 days won't make a huge difference and your health is no1 priority. 4litres of vile drink, after that you will appreciate cd shakes so much. Although I actually think cd shakes are nice anyway:)
You'll be back on track towards the end of the week and we are all here to support you Hun xxx:)

Definitely :D all the way to goal x
 
Think I might have finally finished cleaning myself out! Feel crap but glad I've been doing cd for last few weeks. Can't imagine having to do this with a belly full of food lol.
