Namastes 100 days.... time to move on :(

Just discovered lovely exante hot chocolate :) Had two mugs ~ each using half a packed of choc shake plus a teaspoon of cocoa (no carbs, I checked) mixed with a little cold water and then topped up with hot water. Not too many lumps and YUMMY........
 
Day 7/100

Would you believe it......weighed in at 14.10 again this morning ggrrrrrrrrr

Thats 6 days on mostly TS with 3 WS days, one day with an extra pack and one day with an extra bar and a loss so far of 2lbs ????? I'm definitely drinking at least 3 litres of water a day, I have little bottles fill up and count as I drink (bit sad but there ya go)

I think this happened on my last try so I'll try not to get disheartened. I have to weigh every day ~ I need the focus and discipline.

Off to work now but back about 3pm. Really hoping I can avoid all the delicious biscuits.... they're my downfall, well, biscuits and cakes and anything sweet really :)

Back later to catch up xx
 
Don't panic, I know you expect to weigh at least 1 stone less each day you do this plan, but on day 8 you will be a happy bunny. I like to weigh pretty much every day myself, just to see, it gives me a boost or the determination to stay on track, but it does mess with some peoples heads. It really does take a few days for the body to begin working on the fat, so give it a chance, at the end of the day you will lose more weight on this plan than any other...now if only I would take some of my own advice!!

Have a great day and keep that chin up!! xxx
 
Thanks Lanarkwitch I'm trying to stay positive......... tisn't too bad really as it's the beginning of a long road and I'm still running on positivity!

Resisted the biscuits ~ result :) Pleased to say only 2 shakes and a bar consumed today along with copious amounts of water. Trying green tea but not liking it too much at the mo....... maybe that'll change so I'll persevere.

Weighing in the morning and I'll change my stats but not expecting much after this morning's reading :( Maybe there'll be a bigger loss next week, gotta keep going xx
 
Day 8/100 ~ weighed in at 14.9 so a pretty disappointing 3 pounds for my first week on exante :( But, I know I can't do any more and the weight will come off. As I'm doing 100 days I think I'll copy what I saw on someone else's diary (can't remember who, so many of you :)) Every 10 days I'll record what I've lost and have a little non-food related reward........ that'll cheer me up. Need to make a list ~ I love lists :)
 
Another 100% day today despite my disappointment this morning :) The real test will be the weekend! Maybe if I've lost weight when I weigh in the morning it'll encourage me to stay on track. No wine then :( ~ I'll have to think what treat I'm going to have when I've weighed on day 11 to mark my first 10 days at 100% xx
 
I know you were probably hoping for more, but give your body a chance to get into the swing of things, i only had such a big loss in week 1 because frankly I am a bag of water and my weight can fluctuate by more than 7lbs with water weight when not on plan. So I just dumped all my excess water which was pretty obvious in my fingers and no puffy face now in the mornings. I have just chucked all my bars in the bin, because I felt they were making me feel hungry and also I feel the carb content is too high for me, so I'm 2 shakes and a soup, although in all honesty I am not a massive fan of any of the shakes. Soups are yum though.

Try and stay focused, I fell of the wagon on Thursday night, not for food, but did have 8 vodkas, I'm still in ketosis though as I didn't follow the pub with a curry!!

Keep your chin up and try and get that feeling of whatever eating might do for you mentally, it won;t be as good as seeing the weight coming down on those scales.

Aaaw thanks, I know everyone's different and reacts differently to this diet so that's what kept me going (that and the diaries and the fact I'm soooo overweight) BUT what a result this morning :D:D:D a drop of 3lbs

Day 9/100 and weight this morning 14.6 YAAAAAAY

So, definitely will be a 100% TS weekend with one WS breakfast on Sunday. Very, very happy today..... I've finally taken control back and it's paying off xxx
 
Day 10/100 ~ I was a bit worried about weighing myself in case those 3lbs came back on overnight.... but no, they're still gone (hopefully forever) Still 14.6 this morning :)

Having a low carb brekkie this morning, a weekend treat. Scrambled egg with a few mushrooms and green veg. OH's having toast, butter etc but I'm ok with that. Surprisingly not tempted by anything over the last couple of days. Love exante!

Hope everyone has a good 100% day xxx
 
I've just noticed my fingers aren't puffy any more....... that's an unexpected bonus :D x

Thank you all......... was a lovely surprise and I'm soooo glad I stuck to it. When you think about it, how can it not work? :)

Very odd feeling this evening, I'm not hungry and will really struggle to have my third pack. That must be some sort of record in this house :8855: Ah well, off for a bit of telly snuggled up on the sofa with OH (much to DS's disgust) Roll on tomorrow and day 11 when weight will be recorded and there's a lovely reward to have xx
 
Day 11/100 and my weight is 14.6 ~ very happy with that. Will have a bit of a pamper today as a treat. It's too soon for new clothes and anyway, I have all my smaller clothes ready from last year. Could get my haircut but think I'll wait a bit..... so pamper it is :)

Have a lovely 100% day everyone xx
 
Good morning Namaste glad the scales moved for you, isn't this diet fab! Enjoy your day of pampering, you deserve the reward! :hug99: xx
 
Day 12/100 ~ doesn't time fly? Weighed in 14.6 this morning so nothing shifting for now, I know it will though. Rushed this morning as off to work, I need to weigh every morning though and record it here to maintain focus...... I must stay focused :D very difficult for me to do so I mustn't miss even one day of posting!

Back later xx
 
I just bought one of those pound saver tins ~ the ones that are a tower where you can see your pound coin savings growing. It holds £60 ~ just the amount of weight in lbs I'm wanting to lose :D £6 gone in there today. I'm aiming to have £60 to spend on a lovely outfit for my son's wedding in August.... so NO CHEATING!

Not hungry today thank goodness, but I'm hoping the husks start working soon or I might start becoming incredibly anti social :( x
 
Day 13/100 and weight this morning 14.7 ???????? I guess my body just doesn't want to let go of anything :( I know rationally I can't have put on a pound, I know rationally as I'm sticking to the plan then I must be losing the weight but it's hard to really believe it when the scales go the wrong way!

I'm gonna need to keep myself really busy today to avoid thinking about my weight and doing the usual 'doesn't work anyway so I might as well eat everything in sight'.... or somesuch grrrrrrrrr

I'm quite sure I'll be back later xxx
