I'm guessing it's such a good loss because I had my 3lb gain from last week to get off! ha I've spent the last beginning of this week kind of thinking what's the point of it all. In a way. I mean I know it's great losses, faster with anything else, but I still found myself sitting there thinking but it's going to take forever, and I don't get to eat, anything, at all. For months and months. There was that voice telling me well you'll never last that long, no chance. Why don't you just go on a normal diet, won't be as quick, but at least you might manage to stick to it. But the reality is this is the only diet that I've ever done that I've been able to really stick to! It's hard, really bloody hard, but it is worth it. I'm not sure I could do slimming world or weight watchers, it's too easy to accidently miscount syns or points, leave a couple of things out because surely they don't count. The way this works, it is making me re-evaluate my food habits. From things like when I have breakfast, to potion sizes, to snacking. I don't actually eat a lot, well I certainly don't know, but I didn't before, but I'd eat the wrong things, with not enough exercise. And I think completely removing food has helped me look at that and realise it. It seems like now CD has gone from being something I just about tolerate because of the benefits to me, to something that I kind of enjoy... if that makes sense! I'm not having to worry about food, no calorie counting and all this. Just gives me time to sort my relationship with food. The other day when I was extremely stressed, I didn't turn to food, I laid down on my bed, lit a nice smelling candle and listened to music for a bit, and I probably felt a lot better than I would have if I'd stuffed my face with anything, regardless of if I was on CD or not!
Anyway, I'm rambling, sorry, I have a habit of that!!
