I'll just have to be content with my water - maybe add some flavouring for added excitement....
I do feel smaller and have lost inches already even though I am only on day 11.
That was one of the things I noticed last time was that the fat seemed to disappear from the fattest bits of you first - result....for me that's my middle so that lovely roll I had on top of my waistband is a bit smaller....muffin tops will be banished soon.

Absolutely, Suz. they just make your clothes look so bulky!
Well, In-laws arrived with freshly baked flapjacks and bread - my father in law is big into cooking and baking and makes such lovely stuff....I declined very politely and tried to steer clear but ended up having a tiny, tiny bit of flapjack - I am sure it won't do too much harm!
Hannah then wanted to make her grandad chocolate chip cookies....arghhhh - the smell was glorious but I managed to sit there while they all had hot, fresh cookies with ice cream....am I a saint or what!

My oh My - you are good resisting all that - that is ketosis for ya though - I remember going to several parties/bbq etc whilst on LL - luckily all different hosts so could use the "oh I've not been well, am off the food at the mo just to be careful excuse" & get away with it - good for you though - bet you have another great result this week.
Have a good day

Woke up this morning to the smell of that freshly baked bread being toasted......I hid under the duvet until the danger had cleared and then ventured downstairs to have my half litre of water and hot chocolate
Did have a sneaky peek on the scales and they have not moved since Sunday which is annoying - although I have lost fat as my clothes are looser than they were and I suppose that's the most important bit.
Going out to Brum later - as they want to go for a curry no less Chicken Tikka on its own for me then - maybe some lettuce just to be sociable!

Rach, I am a totally stubborn little beggar and because I have paid for the packs I will make sure I stick to it 100% - that way its over quicker and I can get back to my porridge and my points...

Hehehe. Yeah, last time I wasn't paying for it, but now this time I'll be paying £35-40 per week I WILL stick to it!
You seem to be doing fabulously well. I can't wait to start!
I won't have the problem of peeking at the scales, since we don't have any here: and I'm definitely not buying any!

Oh my word Rosie you definitely should be sainted! Being able to sit there while everyone else eats bread and cookies, man alive it would drive me insane. It was bad enough last night when everyone was eating McDonalds and I wasn't.:cry: I contemplated getting out the car and sitting outside till they had finished.
Hope you have a fab loss this week as jeez lady you deserve it

- that's a wee embarassed face cos I don't feel I should be getting so much praise - but thank you, thank you all the same.The only reason I am having to resort to this diet is because I had been having absolutely NO discipline around food at all for months - and had been like an eating machine. If I really was a saint, I wouldn't be in this place.....
the thing I don't get with me is that when I go into "diet head" I am very disciplined but maintenance clearly doesn't have the same ring to it or something - maybe I have to think of it like a different "diet" - one that I am allowed a few more points. The other issue with me is that I stopped weighing myself when I had put on 5lbs because I was so annoyed and then when I next stepped on the scales it was 10 then it was 14
(clearly there was a gap between those weigh in's)Well, survived the Indian. The poppadums and the naan bread were the hardest. I ordered chicken shashlick - and got a starter portion...do you think they were trying to tell me something!!! Couldn't be bothered waiting for them to cook more so just had that - and to be honest, it was enough (from a filling me up point of view, not from a wanting to eat it point of view though)
Tonight, my father-in-law's brother and family are coming for dinner - he has not seen him in 13 yrs not because of a fall out or anything - just cos they never made the effort. My OH arranged it as a surprise....when he told his dad that Dave was coming over on Friday, his dad said "Oh, What for?????" WTF!!!! You've not seen him in 13yrs man.....and you ask "What for"
So, pa in law and step mum in law have taken over the kitchen. The menu for tonight is another curry (home made), freshly made pakora - which was being done now which is why I am in a different room on the computer...the smell was heavenly - and then apple & sultana crumble with cream, ice cream or custard.
Me, I'll be having a stir fry and a foodpack made into crisps. I so want to see a 9 on the scales tomorrow and have shifted half a stone in 2 weeks. I feel much better, so fingers crossed.
Thats excellent progress and hopefully the rest will join it soon. Then new head needed for maintenance this time you don't want to end up like me, never learned the trick of maintenance and just grew and grew like Topsy. Hope its sunk in this time for both of us.
Proud of you
