Ooooops, been MIA for a few days lol! Wellll...... I came off plan friday night and got back on it on sunday so only lost 1lb since the last time I weighed at boots, but still not down to ticker weight so not updating yet! Only thing is, I'm still not in ketosis because most days this week I've been really hungry so had an extra bar (or two! ) But going to do it properly starting tomorrow, 1 bar max, hungry or not!! Think I might just stick to it though as bought new jeans today, size 30, and got into them!!!! Was so suprised lol bought them thinking I would get into them in afew weeks when I'd lost some more. But gona have to buy some more now in a 28 for in afew weeks time The 30's are abit tight, so still need to lose abit more to be comfy in them. Bought some work/interview plain black trousers too in a 32 because they have no give, but they don't fit yet atall, and I always thought jeans were worse to get into lol! Anywaayyyyy.... Day 33 -> Done! Although I did have an extra bar..... and 2 boiled eggs And not drinking enough atall and know my being hungry is probably thirst, but we ran out of coke zero, and I've gone off mint tea, and our water tastes FOUL, and even the water flavourings don't mask the taste! But I will try better tomorrow lol! Not long til graduation now so want to lose as much as poss! Hope everyone is doing ok!

Good to hear from you, glad you're doing OK. You need to invest in loads of gallon bottles of spring water! I buy 3 a week for work as I don't like the taste of the tap water there. costs me about £3 but well worth it.... I've banished the bars for now, I'm finding I feel less bloated without them. Also having psyllium once a day too, helping everything to "keep moving" lol!!

Think I'll buy water next time I'm in tesco, 17p for 2l which isnt bad, then I can have 1 a day and know I've had enough
In other news..... lol...... I've finally finished my degree! Got my results today and have got a 2:2 and as much as I wanted a 2:1 I knew after January's results that it wouldn't be possible, but YAY! Plus I only need a 2:2 to do a PGCE so will apply next year in the hope that I'll be fit enough to do it by then!

Aww thanks everyone was really chuffed as after having to leave uni the first time round I needed to prove to everyone who said that I wouldn't graduate that I could, plus I'm one of the only people in my family who is now a graduate
As For yesterday, cant remember what day it is..... Day 35?? Lol! I did well in that I only had 1 bar But I only ended up having 2 packs alltogether as I fell asleep before I could get the 3rd in!
Twisted my ankle yesterday too, wasnt too bad lastnight, but today I can hardly walk on it! Was cleaning the bathroom, and we put cheap self-adhesive tiles down on the floor about a week ago but they werent sticking (only from the pound shop, so.....) So yesterday before I cleaned I pulled them all up, but then my feet were sticking to the floor! So put shoes on & they stuck too lol, but at one point I stepped backwards and my shoe didnt move cos it was stuck, so, walaa..... poorly ankle!! Lol!
I froze one of the tesco bars yesterday too & had it this morning, was yummy! Plus, I find the tesco bars really moreish which is why I've struggled over the last week to stick to 1 a day... But because this morning it was frozen, it took ages to eat it, and because it took longer, by the time I'd finished it I didn't want another and was full! So frozen one for tomorrow too

I love the bars frozen Although don't think I'd try it with exante ones, the purple one is so solid already lol I think if I froze it and tried to eat it it would be like trying to eat a brick! Hahaha Had my bar already today altho it wasn't frozen cos forgot to stick in the freezer lastnight, theres one in there for tomorrow now, but it might not last til then lol!

Uve fantastic willpower
I loved d purple Exante bars Never tried d CHoc orange ones Have u? D Tesco ones r 2 nice
I find it hard 2 exercise my willpower not 2 eat d lot in one go... Hence I can't buy dem in bulk like u. I only found d yogurt ones once Der impossible 2 find For some reason Tesco only seems 2 sell d chocolate ones er Think I'd b less inclined to binge on dem!
I've only a few porridges left Stickin 2 shakes on hols Should b gr8 4 coolin me down

I've abandoned the bars, I don't think they help my losses at all! Freezing them sounds like good fun though, I think I'd probably get annoyed with the length of time to eat it & give up though lol
