My 32 yr old friend passed away in similar circumstances in January. It prompted me to start this diet. Hope you're ok. Am really stressed with awful personal stuff this week & craving food. It's a never ending drama. Good luck at weigh in.

So i thought i must of knocked myself out of ketosis last week cos i was feeling starving and really struggling and i was right cos i am having that horroble taste in my mouth again ,terribe mood swings and today felt loads better like i did when i started this diet, the only thing i had that cud of done it was gum i ran out of mouth wash (i keep it in my bag) so i bought sugar free gum had it 1 day otherwise nothing else that cud of done it. I will for sure be staying away from it now dont wana got through the last few days i have had again!!

I occasionally have a day or two when I am starving and have still been in ketosis. It passes quickly but it's painful when it happens. I haven't had dog breath for ages ... Or I just don't notice it anymore!

Its not good news after being 100% all week i GAINED 1lb i was not expecting a big loss at all and was even prepared to sts after doing more exercise but to have actually gained 1lb when i didnt cheat has made me feel absolutely terrible i know its only 1lb but it doesnt make me feel any less hurt and upset over it so with a bad wi and then visiting my friend at hospital and to much personal drama i am at the point of cracking i cant stop crying.. which i know is stupid but i have worked soooo hard why did i gain weight??? I stupidly had my first blip today what did i do when i got upset i ate a panini and a chocolate i did not enjoy it in the slightest i threw most of the choc away cos i no longer want to deal with my emotions using food which is a plus point i think cos i realised it was stupid and i didnt want to do it but i have truelly knocked myself out of ketosis so im gona have to go through it all again =/ I have let myself and everyone else down in the worst way possible and i feel sooooo horrible but im not packing it in im gona get back on it not from tomorrow or the next day but from right now i am gona shift this bloody weight!!!!! Just feeling very down at the mo =(

I'm so sorry to hear that, but your weight losses have been fantastic! You should be so proud of what you have achieved al far! I know a gain is super disappointing as you haven't cheated once, it's been 100% dedication, it's not fair is it? Chin up, your still a superstar.

 

[ayshaahmad]

Oh hun I am sorry that you have had a crap day its a lb it will be off by the morning, slow down on he excercise and u will have a big loss next week, as for the food like u said u didn't enjoy it, back on from tomorrow and all will be gd, wish I could come give u big hugs xxxx

 

[Sapphireblue]

try not to let it get you down. you have had above average losses all the way til now, you were bound to have an inexplicably dreadful week at some point!

it could be hormonal, you could be retaining water for some reason, just get back on it and you will probably have a big loss next week.

i wouldn't worry too much about cutting back down on the exercise as long as you aren't doing loads. it will help your inches if not your weight!

 

[AnnieAnnie]

Yolande you DID NOT let anyone down. You've had a tough time & ok, so you turned to food, but you know that you were trying to deal with your emotions, so you've learnt from it. It's ok.

When I had a week that I sts despite being 100% I was a mess all week. It taught me that the scales dictate my mood & eating habits way too much & I won't be using them often when back on normal food. Make that something positive you can take from this, a good lesson learnt.

It's true that you've had good losses so if you even it out it's ok, it won't stop your progress & you'll probably have a great loss this week. After my random sts I've lost 8.5lbs this week. It makes no sense. So just have the packs, drink your water & the weight will go. It has to.

But more importantly, look after yourself. Get back on it & think it's one less blip to have when you're eating again.

Thanks guys i can always count on getting amazing support on here. I have still lost 5 stone in 15 weeks which i need to focus on cos that in itself is fantastic so like you say i was bound to have a week that was not good =( I think it was just such a shock but i will now be better prepared for when i have a not so good week i should rather think i was 100% and be proud of that cos i know the weight has to go... i am going to keep exercising cos it mkes me feel good and my cdc told me i shud keep at it cos it can only be good for me and it will tone me up but maybe just tone it down a little just while im on ss. Lesson learnt i cant physically eat like i used to cos i did not even have that much food and i feel sooo sick so i think if i ever have the urge to cheat im going to think of how sick i feel right now and it will stop me in my tracks cos its just really not worth it. Sooo after 15 weeks on cd and i have my very first breakdown in spectacular fashion ha ha it was bound to happen hey =) Thanks again so much for your replies they have really perked me up again which seemed impossible the way i was feeling today and im going to be straight back on it with my positive thoughts and vibes and shift this weight!!! =D THANK YOU x

 

[therealbbe]

Jeeze 5 stone is bloody amazing you right you need to focus on that!!! Ok so it was a lb but next week you will kick ass I just know it xxxx

 

[Daisy65]

Yolande - I have had a couple of bad weeks and I feel gutted for a day but then just look forward to the next weigh in. It was inevitable that you would not have a huge loss every week as you did before and inevitable that you would have a blip or two but in the grand scheme of things it is pretty meaningless. You will get back SS tomorrow and you will lose loads more weight. By next week it will be a distant memory and you'll be celebrating next week's weight loss.

Yolande, Each week I build myself up on weigh day that I may stay the same or I may have a slight gain, even though I am 100% I know from others on here that it can happen as our bodies are very strange things.
You are a true inspiration and as you say you will get back on track tomorrow and have another fab loss next week like you have every week until now. Please dont beat your self up about this, we are all human x x x

[Yolande]

I have to again thank you all for the support during my little break down you are all great and i dont know what id do without you =D I have had a very good day today been straight back on it 100% and cos i have 3 spare tetras i have given up my bars for the next 3 days hopefully speed up ketosis see i am comitted again =D i was not really bothered by food at all today and this might sound crazy but this morning i looked in the mirror and thought im sort of happy i had a blip now cos i really hated it and it really made me feel so ill and it proved to me that food is not ruling my life any more which is a major break through for me i dont know if that makes sense to anyone but it does to me and i am feeling good again and very determined and i am going to take all the advice on board and not focus on each weekly wi and let it determine my mood il rather look at the over all outcome and be proud of myself for being 100 %
