So....I started day 12 feeling great.
That great I forgot to have my shake until 12!! Big mistake as I let the hunger creep in!! I've not had any food or anything but feel a bit all over. Had second pack at 4.30 and I'm literally desperate for my 3rd which hubby is kindly making me. So note to self - get my first pack by 10-10.30 ish as I had been as that seems to work for me.
Packs today - honeycomb shake, caramel crunch bar and just having Indian curry now. This is the first day this week I've had a bar and a meal as I prefer two shakes then one or the other but really feel I need it today.
Had a fab massage earlier to distract and just having a chilled out evening watching the voice. Have lots of work to do too so hoping I can stop thinking about bloody food - specifically crisps!

Hope you made it through the evening! X
Not too badly thanks Clover. And you?
I've resisted all temptation. I didn't go to the family dinner until after they'd finished eating as to be fair I've loads of work to do so just said I was snowed under. So I dodged that one. I'm currently sat looking at two of the biggest piles of Easter eggs ever and I really don't feel tempted. However if it were giant bags of sensations I'm not sure I'm strong enough yet to resist - crisps are my downfall.
I'm still feeling quite bloated from TOTM so not sure what Tuesday's weigh in will bring. I'd be over the moon if I could get 5lb off to make a stone but not sure it will happen. We'll see. Not peaking at the scales until then though.
Hope you've all had a good Easter so far.
Woohoo I survived Easter Sunday! I can't tell you how proud of myself I am. Normally I'd have had 3 Easter eggs!
I do think avoiding the family dinner yesterday was a wise choice but I also think I'll need to tell them what I'm doing as I can't avoid things forever.
Yesterday's packs - 10.15am Cherries & Berries
3.30pm - chocolate shake
8.30pm - sweet n sour noodles.
I really like the noodles! How strange. And bizarre they fill you up - really does put portion control into perspective.
Is it crazy that I'd like a faster weight loss. Almost like I'll feel disappointed if I don't get the 5lb this week - maybe just because I want to see that first stone off. And probably because I've so much to lose! I know it will take about a 3 stone loss before I drop a dress size.....due to my height all of my weight is on my stomach - it's revolting and takes a long time to shift. Anyway onto day 14 I go. Boring bank holiday as I'm locked away working but at least it's a distraction.

I can and will do this!
Well done indeed for resisting all that temptation - a really big step, and wise choices made 
I've kept myself busy with work all weekend too
I know it's not easy, but don't get obsessed with the scales
.....a loss is a loss, whatever it might be
We have almost exactly the same amount of weight to lose now.........and this is going to be our year!

You are right Darcy but I guess I feel that a vlcd is such a sacrifice I want to see results. BUT I also need to change my relationship with food so this is the best route for me. I've lost 2 inches from my waist! But hips /stomach nothing so I just just bigger - ha. Mind you I'll be happy with a nice curvy shape when I'm slimmer.
This is our year!
Pack one and 1 litre water down - strawberry cheesecake. Won't be ordering more of those but need to use them up.

Well done on resisting the temptations
I do think you may have to either tell your family or take the long view and modify your diet plan to work in the occasional event and/or celebration because life happens. That is the view I am taking. If I didn't eat Easter Sunday dinner (after cooking it) there would have been a ructions at home, and my family are supportive of me doing this diet.
Good luck for weigh in tomorrow

It is hard and I needed a few weeks of TS under my belt before I was able to venture off track. But, I have found eating out easier than eating off track at home as I can make a protein and salad based choice whilst out but at home have to consider others.

I think that so long as your immediate loved ones are supportive you should be fine. I cook for my family most weekends and it's been ok, so long as I am clear in my head that I am not going to eat anything off plan.
Yeah my hubby and 2 best mates are ace.
I will tell the rest but not just yet.
So, day 14 is pretty much done.
Packs - Strawberry shortcake (only a few of those left now thankfully) Honeycombe and spag Bol for tea (I really like the spag Bol!)
Really hoping for a decent loss tomorrow. I've stuck to it 100% and had 4 litres of water daily so I bloody deserve the 5lb I'm after.
The only thing I think I need to work on is exercise. Not gonna lie I hate it but I've agreed to start a dance class next week so that's a start.
