had a sneeky peek on the scales this morning and am not happy, they dont appear to have moved all week!!! worried now wi monday will be the same, not sure how id cope with that?!

I'm in the same situation this week and think I'm going to be very fed up come weigh-in BUT I know next week will be better so have to keep things in perspective. Just sometimes, our bodies need to readjust and that's all it is so stay positive!

And yes, it's very normal to feel constantly thirsty when in ketosis! Keep drinking xx
 
thanks debbie, this mornings weigh in was -3lbs so will b happy with that and im not used to this thirst thing, b4 CD i only drank 2-3 cups of tea and 1-2 glasses of juice and think this is one of the things i will take away from the diet is that i need to drink more and to associate hunger and thirst differently, i think many times i picked at food i was probably just thirsty!!

today feeling positive, 2 shakes down, 1 to go as will be doing a SS+ day today as out for a meal tonight with parents as they go away tomo and dads birthday whilst there away.

tried on a dress i brought last year and it was too tight but a bargin, so shoved it in the wardrobe, today the top section i struggled to do up b4 is slightly loose!! tho tried a skirt on and thats still too small, so think my top half is loosing more than bottom half!!
 
You're still losing though which is great news! Well done! I will be happy if I lose 3lbs this week but sadly, don't think it's gonna happen! oH WELL! X
 
HI there - well done on your weight loss so far.
I wish I'd started a diary as I can see how useful they are.
My scales at home weren't moving and I had a major wobble /flipped out cos of it - so now I try to only weigh myself once/twice per week instead of 5 times per day (ha ha).
Just out of interest... how do you find doing odd days of ss +? I think this is something i need to think about doing, especially totm and days when I'm feeling crappy about thinking about bags of crisps!

Good Luck with the rest of your journey.
 
Hi MrsN
I find the odd SS+ day helps me through, if i didnt then i would cheat as I have a lot of social things pop up and I dont want to be excluded, I cant sit there and watch others eat, it would kill me and id break the diet and cheat, so by joining in and having something sensible works for me, after i feel good for it and dont have starters, puddings etc.
Also at totm im used to comforting my pain with choc, childhood of painful periods has caused this, so to be able to have something is better than feeling totally crap!! i have also had tea with skimmed milk at totm too as this is on SS+ (i think) just is comforting and filling for me!

My CDC advised against odd days of SS+ as she said your body wont know when its getting its next meal and u may suffer with hunger pains more, i however havent as i would avoid it if this happens, but if you are sensitive to it then chose SS+ for a week when its totm and then back to SS the next week. its real trial and error on this diet it works differently for everyone!!

good luck
 
so, weigh day yesterday and -2lbs, not great but lost so thats the main thing, did have a meal last night, felt i needed it!! tho prob dint need the bit of choc i had :(

today bk to SS, tho my mind has been wondering as to what else i could do to loose weight and EAT!!! im finding it hard going to get back into after last week!! im now thinking CD for 6 weeks more, iv done 2 weeks now so only need to do that again 3 times and will be near holiday, hopefully 3 stone lighter than start and then 2 weeks b4 holiday onto SW and use that to loose the rest and maintain with, im never guna b a stick woman but feel if i get to a size 14 il b happy!!
wish the next 6 weeks would fly by and the wieght drop off but i have a feeling its guna b a long slog!

I c ur back on SW debbie, glad ur looking after yourself over the diet, and very jealous ur eating and i cant!! lol
 
Well done on the 2lbs hun, that's great. :) I must say I am enjoying food again but I do still have about 5 days worth of CD shakes so if at any point, I need a boost, I have them but I must say, even having salad again is heaven and it's amazing how much better I feel, and straight away.

See how you get on over next few weeks and then decide what you wanna do, SW is a great maintainance diet so that may be what's for you.

Have you thought about doing SS+ all the time as that way you can eat a bit and I gather losses are pretty good. x
 
im really unsure, up until today i have been so positive with it, thinking its not forever, yet today i just want food, nothing bad, fruit, veg meat etc, and i have had some pickled onions tonight as i craved them so badly!! wtf?

iv just got off the phone to my best friend, shes a super fitness freak and is at fitness first, its 5 min walk from my place, so have asked her to c what deals they have on as i dont want to pay a joining fee, i can get the monthly fee from work at 28.00 a month so not too bad. so if she comes back and says they will do no joining fee then might go for SW and gym!! tho wont do it till pay day friday lol

so either way this week i am on CD and need to have a good loss this week! i dont think SS+ would be great as i would begrudge the 40 a week for CD then having to buy fresh food every couple of days lol mad i know but i wouldnt stick to it!

i hate having an unknowing feeling inside!! god i wish this diet was easy or there was some magic pill to make me thin???? but as there isnt guess i will just have to stop eating like a pig and loose weight!!
 
Well get to the end of the week and see how you feel. One day at a time... Do you have a goal weight in mind or just seeing how you get on? xx
 
no definate goal, was hoping for 3 stone by early aug for a holiday but then maybe a stone after? i really dont know i dont remember being that small lol iv always bn 15-16 stone lol and that would make me 14ish

have been reading some other diarys for inspiration and think i need to take one day at a time with CD, when i look further ahead i fail!!! I want to do the 3 stone then tackle SW that was the initial plan, but i didnt think i would miss food this much lol

ok tomorrow is day 1 of SS again!!! grrr
 
I started with a 4 stone goal and then extended it to 6 and now want to lose 8 stone, 13lbs in total! 2st, 7lbs to go!!!
You can do it- one day at a time, look to 1/2 stone goals which will fly by! xx
 
yea i need to break it down more, 1 stone goals on CD i think as am 1.5lb away from the first one!! then 3 more to go!! and need it gone by 6 weeks so CD is the only option!! but every wk i loose weight is an achievement, it went on slowly so isnt guna dissapear overnight is it!! much as i prey it will lol

have been doin the diet the last couple of days and think i have got my head back in the right place, this is only a temp diet to shift it and wont take forever if i put my mind to it, once the 4 stone is gone i will finish CD with maint. and then onto SW to gradually loose more if not maintain! after my holiday.

hope your feeling better on SW and still loosing!
