I hope no one minds but I thought I would post a diary on here. I'm currently following the Certaslim rapid plan which consists of 4 shakes/meals/bars and an evening meal of protein and salad/veg plus two optional snacks.
I've never done a diet like this before, the closest was Dukan which I did enjoy but couldn't face trying again. My starting weight was 12st 6.25lb and my final target is 9st 12lb although my first aim is to get to 10st 7lb hopefully by 18th April when I go to Manchester to meet up with my old Dukan pals
I started last Monday and I am quite surprised I am actually enjoying the diet. I like that I don't have to think about it too much, other than what flavour shake I fancy. The first few days were pretty tough. There were times I felt weak and tired, but I persivered and made it through. Week one weigh in was yesterday and showed an 8lb loss which I am extremely happy about.
I would love to hit the one stone mark sooner rather than later to keep me motivated but have been feeling rather heavy lately and TOTM hit last night so it may take a bit longer.
Tonight is going to be my first major challenge as I'm off out for tea with a couple of friends. My plan is to have steak and salad or something similar. I'm also contemplating treating myself to a diet coke. Think I'll just play it by ear and see how I feel.
