Well done on your 21lbs loss to date, bet you're feeling sonorous of yourself! How nice of your parents to get you a new set of scales, they're obviously quite supportive which is exactly what you need!
Odd re the blueberry flavoured water though! Can't see it affecting ketosis as its not going to have a high quantity of sugar in it, sounds like a great idea though & I bet it tastes yummy!!

As for the blueberry water.... it doesnt exist, my dad was pulling my leg.... and I fell for it! Lol!

So quite impressed with myself lol Had a tiiiiiiiiiny bit of milk in a cuppa earlier, but it was tiiiiiiny lol, just not keen on black coffee atall...... not gona make a habit of it though Drank another 2l of coke zero today too oooops..... the thing is..... our water tastes really metallic and its horrible..... but out of coke now so got no choice, its water, or water! lol Tried on a pair of black trousers today in a size 32, they are nowhere near fitting unlike the jeans, but think the jeans are a tad more stretchy..... And the scales are still not working for me today lol tried them every time I was in the bathroom, weird...... just hope I'm still losing! Anyway, was a loooong day today and gona be an even longer 1 tomorrow, lots of cleaning and painting and decorating to do, so off to bed methinks, niiiight!

Ah thanks, you too!
I'm not keen on black tea atall, but have had afew cups of peppermint tea today, and used abit of my vanilla shake this morning in a coffee The tap water here is not good atall lol, but I've worked out that if I drink water just before a shake it takes the taste away Still havent drunk enough since being home though, had a near enough constant headache from dehydration Didnt get very far with decorating today either haha

If you haven't been drinking enough then it can affect the scales, thats certainly been one of my problems the last week..... I'm the same though, can't bear tap water, ours is really hard and tastes metallic! I have shares in Highland Spring lol!!

I really struggle with drinking enough water because I hate the tast of it. Even bottled water I can't stand. Was thinking about getting some of the water flavouring but not sure if they'd taste of much. xxx

the water flavourings are usually quite sweet, I bought the slim and save white wine flavouring though and thought it was gross, but then thats my opinion

I was thinking of getting the water flavourings with my next order..... the only way I'm drinking water at the moment is drinking a glass right before I have my shakes so they take the taste away! Plus peppermint tea But how much of the flavourings are we allowed?
Ohhh and I tried the scales again this morning, and I'm back on them, with a 2lb loss since friday Getting abit obsessed with them now I know they are working again lol!

Let's do this!
Good afternoon Steeleee, hope you're having a fab one hun.
Glad to hear the scales are moving for you again, though personally I'd recommend not weighing too often. I'd find it dis-heartening to see them not moving each day, but there again that's just me.
I think you're doing fab to stay on track during your move back home, well done :hug99: xx

Hey hun, you're doing really really well.....we'll be skinny minnies before we know it!!
If you're having trouble drinking plain water have you tried Tesco still strawberry water? Or they do an apple one too but that's not sold everywhere. I always have 1 bottle of that a day (it's a 1.5 litre bottle) and then fill it up with tap water and drink that afterwards so get my 3 litres down easily.

Scales said I'd put on 2.8lbs since yesterday :O although I had just drank about a litre of water and some peppermint tea.... and a coffee.... and a shake.... lol! Sooo no more weighing for me unless its on a Friday!!

Thats what I'm hoping, drank ridiculous amounts of tea, coffee and water today to try and get rid of the dehydration headache I've had the last few days! Weigh in is friday, but thinking I might pop into boots and see what their scales say instead of using ones at home, as im not convinced theyre working..... ive been 100% all week so should have lost SOMETHING..... lol, but we'll see on friday
