Day 27 = Day 1 of 18 day SS Challenge!
Ok so I've snapped out of my horrible mood... Had a really good sleep last night and my alarm work me up at 6:45 instead of Hugo waking me up at 5:30.
Today is officially Day 27 since I started CWP - but today is Day 1 of my 18 Day Challenge (that's when I'm planning on moving to SS+ or 810)
I am going to an engagement party on the 26th and I would love to wear a nice dress etc - I've decided that I am driving to the party as its a bit out of the way and would be difficult to get home so that will also stop any temptation.
This morning I went to Costa and ordered a large hot WATER and topped it up with a chocolate tetra (so I have no excuse about not having a kettle)

Done a bit of girly shopping on my "lunch" and got some new exfoliating scrub, fake tan etc - So I'm going to have a pamper night this evening.... I'm also going to start using sauna and steam room at the gym - I've not used them before as I was embarrassed to get into swimwear... Need to start looking after my self and make more of an effort...
Feeling a lot better today - I've decided I get to the point where I feel I need a little something extra - I will have a cup of tea with skim milk, coke zero or an extra shake, my plan is to stay on liquid instead of eating.

Wow I can't believe the difference! The two pictures look like two completely different people!!
Good idea on the hot water from Costa. I need to start looking after myself more too, but I'm so lazy. Can't do with the time it takes to tan and get my hair cut all the time haha! What are you planning on wearing for the engagement party? I have a party on the 26th too for my friends birthday in Manchester so want to lose as much as possible before then

I'm not sure yet - Ive got some lipsy dresses that I could wear or I got a new dress from new look last week - it doesn't quiet fit yet so if I lose enough I'll wear that (however I might need to get it altered as its a bit lose on the shoulders - but tight everywhere else at the moment lol)
I'll post some photos closer to the party and get some advice from you guys

I'm glad you are staying focussed. You are doing great this time round. Stick at it till you get to goal!!!! Just take it a day at a time and soon you will be there!!!
Well done for resisting the Costa temptation and just ordering hot water. The coffee shop stops can add horrendous cals and kick off terrible sugar cravings, so good for you for avoiding the damage.

Day 28 = Day 2 of 18 day SS Challenge!
Feel like I'm back into the swing of things now... I've ordered some bars for next week as I haven't had any this week and I am going to allow myself a cup of tea with skim milk each evening with my bar - think this will keep me on track.
Just been to Costa again for my hot water and added my chocolate tetra
Tried on some old dresses last night - they now do up - but still tight so I defo need to lose the last 16lbs!
Happy Friday Everyone!

Why Be Normal?
Hi SARAH,
I've been trying to catch up in your diary for the past couple of days (I had find it first). The pictures are a fab idea and they DO show a difference. Take your measurements, too. I have one of those Rosemary Conley Magic Measuring tapes and when I set it up with the "starter clips" (that do not move) the other day, I almost cried at my measurements: my waist is bigger than it was when I weighed more.
I need to get back into fitness. Take a look at the "Secret of Shaping Up" thread. If you can commit to Kettlebells it really improves your shape.
Hi SarahB -- I'm in your neighbourhood, too. I am almost 5'4" and I've started back at 11stone6. I can't SS at the moment as I broke my wrist (radius) ice skating on Friday the 13th of April. I should have known better. I am using Slim and save products this time. (In 2008, I did a VLCD :Lighter Life completed Foundation and lost almost 5 stone, and in 2011 I did Cambridge and lost 1.5 stone of the 2 plus stone I'd gained back. I've gained about 2 back -- again -- and trying to get back to 9st 7.) Anyway, the first week was a STS -- -- and I forgot to weigh this morning before I had breakfast, so I will do so tomorrow. I do not feel any lighter, but fingers crossed! I should get the cast off on Wednesday and if the x-ray shows it is healed, then I may wait two weeks and then try to go into ketosis.
Kettlebells!!
I think so, too.
Hi Shaaaaaaaannnnnyyyyyy!
I just read about how to do a cleanse -- I think it was in Curlz' diary. If I can find the post, I'll come back and paste the link.
You are doing sooooo well, Foo!

Ive been looking online for someone with simlar to lose as me, everyone seems to be bigger i am 11stone 2lbs and started CD yesterday my aim is 9st 7 and im just over 5ft 4 so i have quite a way to go. I was happy to see your weight loss i would expect it to come off slower with you not having much to lose so its nice to see
Yesterday day 1 i found easy but today ive had a bad head all day i have been drinking lots of water just hope it passes as i really want to stick to the plan. I have lost 3stone before doing slimfast so i know i can do it
