my diary ~ no more CD for me

Got a new blender too so I can make shakes and soups without lumps, yum. I hate lumps and that has really put me off the diet. Lets hope this one lasts more than a couple of months.


Mind you don't whizz your soups up too much, I did with my first one ever and I never had a soup again.....frothy soup:eek: I'd rather savour the lumps!!!
 
Ok I've had my fun ate and drank what I liked and am sticking at 11 stone 2 (which is quite good I think because I had expected to have put on a lot more than that).

I want to get back into the diet but I sooo obvously cannot SS anymore. Apart from the constant temptation to eat at work, I can't take the lack of energy. It's just not fair on my kids to be coming home from work and going straight to sleep because I'm too knackered to stay up any longer. I know it does get better eventually but till then it's no good.

Soooo, anyone got any suggestions as to which plan I'd probably be best on?
 
Hiya Kati, maybe go up a step to the 790 or up another to the 1000????? I don't know cuz I've never read the plans in detail, but you could do 2 shakes and 1 mainly protein based meal a day, promising to bring dog and /or boys out for a walk every day..??????

Ask the question in the Chit/Chat section maybe, people pop in there all the time??

good luck with whichever ya decide
 
thanks I have asked the same thing in the cambridge diet bit and both of those plans were suggested there.

I'm starting to think maybe the lack of energy I've been having is just me being lazy. I don'tremember reading anywhere that others just cant keep their eyes open past 4 30 when starting the diet.

There is a big difference between now and first time I started though. Then I was only working 3 hours per day, now I'm constantly on the go from 6 am till I finally get to sit down at about 4 30 (sometimes earlier sometimes later). I dont get any breaks at work either unless there have been no customers in and everything is prepared, cleaned, etc but I still don't get to sit and relax at all.

I suppose maybe if I keep myself on the go till the kids go to bed I might be able to manage it. Theres plenty of cleaning I could be doing instead and yes doggy does need to be walked/ran every day too.

Hi kati, don't knock yourself as being lazy, your not, you've got a tough job, I get to sit my ass on a office chair all day and still lack energy by time I get home, don't know if I'd be able to do a stand up, run around all day job, especially for the first few weeks on SS, I remember bringing dogs for 15min walk and being absolutely shattered, plus 3 boys and a dog take a lot of running after, you probably don't get to sit down very often....lean protein may help you with the energy, 790 to start with and if your losing then cool, trial and error chuck, I'm back on the SS'ing but I'm a lazy baggage and have no dependants so can sit on my ass all day watching TV whilst watching the house disintegrate around me...(dust building really). Gotta pop out to the shops and get my weekly shopping about 20litres of water and a jar of decaf coffee...wonder if I'll need a list to remember all that LMAO...:D
 
I think I'm going to go with the cd1000. That way I can pick on fruit through the day instead of picking at the sandwich fillings. and I can have milk in my coffee :) lol and still have a meal at night and a couple of cd packs. It all sounds like loads!!!! I wonder if we're allowed bread to dip in the soup hmmm

I sometimes wish I didnt have the kids and animals to run round after, it would be so much easier, the house would be so much cleaner, but never mind, I do have them so I do have all the running around to do. you're so much more sensible than me for not having them lol
 
yeah I know, I thnk that was putting me off ssing to be honest, since if I lose that half a stone or whatever in the 1st week will go back on when eating carbs it seems like a waste of time struggling for it
 
I think we both need to learn to be easier on ourselves and go with the flow a bit more lol

I know wat you mean about struggling to SS being a waste of time, thats wat I kind of feel at the moment since I have so much going on the next couple of weeks, but hopefully my new plan will work in my favour!
 
well I doubt I'll stop being hard on myself because I just dont feel very good about myself anyway but I do need to get into the habitof eating properly instead of eating all the wrong things.

Just not looking forard to having to go shopping regularly for the fresh stuff and having to cook
 
hmm well I am not feeling good about myself today. I used to think other people thought me worthless because I was fat, now I know it's just me.

dont have much else to say

Eh, sorry, your so wrong hun. There is nothing worthless about you!

Something has obviously triggered the feelings you have right now and without knowing what that is I cant offer any advice, ok even if I did know I may not be able to do much, but if you are feeling bad about yourself, post it here or write down the reasons why somewhere else and once you've got it out of your system you may feel much better hun
 
Sorry, I'm just sick of being thought of as worth it for a quick **** but anything more and youre joking aren't you? There's much better than me out there for that apparently

Hiya Nikki, listen chuck don't let the B*'s get ya down and its NOT YOU...its him or them whomever...Men will always go for the quick F* (sorry if men on here don't like me saying that) but a lot of the time its true....

Its the fact that you have respect for yourself and don't throw yourself at anyone who smiles your way...this in my eyes means you are worth MORE than those who lay it out at whim....modern days aside, i'm not exactly puranical (spell check on aisle 5 pleeaasse) but if thats all a guys interested unless I feel the same, then adios amigo, theres the door....

i better go take this bath now, lol....water'll be freezing by time i get off line
 
Nikki hunny, (((((((((((hugs))))))))))) please don't put yourself down! When you find the right man he will go at your pace and you will know when you are ready. Please don't fret, I know you will find the "one". So many women on here are testiment to that! I can't say that myself yet, but I'm still chatting to J and he isn't pushing me at all, I think you will just know when it is right. In the meantime don't let other peoples shortcomings reflect on you and how you see yourself. I know saying "their loss" and believing it are two different things, but please take it from those of us on here who have met you and believe that you are truly wonderful.

Much love
