Surfhunny's Countdown to Florida

I'm here just shattered, not done much today, been at mum and dads all day, going to watch a film on bed, not sure how much I'll see of it though.

I'm really craving a kit Kat and why a kit Kat I have no idea, tough though lol.
 
I've got a new diary on the go where I am thrashing out my thoughts![/QUOTE]

Hi, hope u don'y mind me gatecrashing your thread but i'm interested inthe hypnosis side, Kez where is your diary?
 
Hi rae rae, its in the gold members diarys.
 
I've got another challenging day ahead, it's my Grannies birthday party! Can't not go but there's going to be food galore :( I'm taking a bar and have asked for there to be some chicken in case I get tempted.
 
Hola Sally! Knackered after Zumba gold training. Waiting for fooooooood! Having some wine as a relax, going straight to my head! Starting ss+ on Monday! Need this bl**dy stone off! I've had it! I look bad, inferring injured cause of the excess (or so I'm believing)! Monday it stops!

P.s I'm sat all by myself! Decided to stay another night after all in Nottingham. Glad as I'm so tired now! Got pic on fb! I'm in my bright Zumba hoodie, you can't miss me!

I spotted you Nikki.. :) glad zumba went well for you, are you enjoying your time by yourself?


Heey sal how's your day going ?x
 
Loving the freedom but not liking being on my own. Missing my kids..... and hubby :)
 
It's official, my Granny is a feeder!!! Despite me telling her I'd had a big lunch she insisted on me having some food from her buffet table. She can't get her head around my diet at all (she's 91) and she thinks I'm going to make myself ill doing it. So I've had a couple off sandwiches half a scone and a piece of birthday cake. I'm so cross about it because I was determined not to but I feel forced into it with no support from my mum who just said to humour my gran. I know it's not much but I'm not in ketosis any more and I'll probably put on a good half stone because of it :( boo hoo!!

It did make me wonder though, if I get knocked out of ketosis because of too much citric acid or too much sodium, would I end up putting on as much as if I was knocked out because of too many carbs?? Is it the carbs that cause my huge glycogen gain or is it coming out of ketosis in general???
 
would citric acid cause glycogen gain? it couldnt could it?
 
Salt would be water retention rather than knocking you out of ketosis. Citric acid think it stops your body burning fat? If you get a grip and drink loads you'll get back into ketosis quicker I would imagine. Burn the carbs ASAP with exercise.
 
Found this online......

Ketosis, voluntary ketosis like you have on a ketogenic diet and not diabetes-induced ketoacidosis, relies on the Cori cycle, and lets the Krebs cycle completely collapse. That is the "alternative" cycle which is the object of "metabolic adaptation period" prior to feeling really good on a ketogenic diet. From these facts it appears logical that too much citric acid may well re-activate the krebs cycle and thus have gluconeogenesis kick in, which WILL take you of of ketosis.

That's my theory. Research the Cori cycle and it will probably make some kind of sense...
 
Thanks Nikki, I'm back on track today but still can't help feeling a bit angry that I was forced out of ketosis to please someone else :( I don't know what the damage was on account of not weighing so I'm going to assume 8lbs (as this is my usual glycogen gain) and this makes last weeks hard work all for nothing as I'm back to square 1.

I considered starting the 80 days over but moving the goal posts is not productive at this stage!! I'll do this 80 days then see where I'm at from then. I won't count yesterday as part of the days, it's not getting a cross in the box it'll get a sticker when I complete today, it just means 1 extra day to do at the end.

I know they're only concerned but I wish people would just let me get on with dieting and stop interfering, I get it at work so much I've just learned to tune it out. People seem happier to let me be when I have my k chilli or spag bol than shakes even though the nutritional content etc is the same, idiots!
 
So I've just carried on as if yesterday hadn't happened!!! I think it's the only way to do this. I ducked out of going to Catterick market with mum and dad this morning, every other stall there is a hog roast, hot dog van, burger van, sweet stall, curry van, fish and chips..,....... There's no way after yesterday I'd be strong enough to resist a breakfast bun.

I've had a litre and a half of water, a bar and a choc shake so far, I've also done 30 Day Shred. Now I'm chilling on the sofa in my jammies watching Sky+d Biggest Loser! What better way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon? :)
 
Oh oh and I've downloaded an app... It's a Mental Gastric Band it uses subliminal suggestion therapy to help you eat less and want to eat less. I think it was quite expensive but hey ho, it's worth a try. I'll keep you posted with how I get on. I also bought another Jillian Michaels DVD I forget what it's called but I'll use it if I ever finish 30 Day Shred. (No not IF I ever finish, WHEN I finish)!!!

Well done Shanny!! I knew if I went I'd be in big trouble, it would've been a case of carrying on from yesterday's mishaps and thinking one more day wouldn't hurt. But I know that one more day usually turns into a couple of weeks and then my 80 Fat Attack would be out of the window.
 
Back at work today after my long weekend. It was a massive struggle to get out of bed this morning, the miserable weather made me want to curl up under the duvet and go back to sleep. Instead I'm sitting at work with a huge cup of tea
trying to wake up!!

I've got 3 long days this week plus being on call so fitting Shred in is going to be a nightmare but I'll have to do it regardless! Hope everyone has a good day dispite this awful, miserable weather.
 
What is with the weather? We are in July for god sake. Is this it? Aren't we going to have seasons anymore?
