This time I WILL do it :D

[WeeDee]

Well done Tru and keep strong and it must be horrible being on TOTM almost all the time its does suck being a woman babes most def! Pamdev don`t work too hard hun, and hope your doing ok too xx

Aww thanks Lou, I'm doing good. Still low carbing and calorie counting. Oh and trying to fit 36 hours worth of daily life into a 24hour day lol. Got a few days hols so hoping to get time for a catch up. P xx

Peachy I'm here honey but uber busy with work, school plays, organising my daughters birthday party and sorting Xmas pressies out lol

I have been and bought some Atkins bars as work is mental for the next few weeks so will be grab and go for a while. But didn't want to pick on the wrong things!

I've also swooped to drinking peppermint tea which counts towards my water intake but still is a hot tea rather than just plain water at this time of year.

I'm struggling with getting smaller...which might sound stupid but I've been a plus size girl for so long now it's scary getting slim as I've noticed people doing double takes when I walk past. Not sure
if it's a good or bad thing! X x x

Oh I think it's a good thing! I for one have been lapping up the compliments, I think I'm entitled to AND I am mentally squirrelling them away for those times when I need to have one of THOSE conversations with myself over a bar of Galaxy or a Cornish Pastie! You know the ones!

I have been honest and open about how I've lost the weight so quickly and most people are genuinely happy for me. Of course there are those who smile whilst inwardly thinking that TFR is cheating, or dangerous, or both! You just know that some are horribly jealous and quietly hoping that you put it all back on.....but that just makes me even MORE determined to show them that I have changed my life, for the better and for ever!

I like my reflection now, I don't mind having my photo taken and I don't mind how many people tell me that I look fantastic because I FEEL fantastic!

This diet is hard, maintenance will be harder....... grab your prizes when they're offered I say

Pam ...not feeling to bad have pulled a muscle in my neck which is hard to work with but so busy in the run upto Xmas it's stupid.

Lou it's horrid I seem to be on more than not...but it can happen with this pill apparently but I'm not in pain when on so can't complain too much.

I can't make it to WI today so am going on Wednesday morning instead hopefully by then I will not have TOTM to deal with. I did my usual WI today and 16st 91/2lbs so ive lost 1lb since last week but happy with that as normally STS when I'm on! Which hopefully will make a better loss for Wednesday if I'm not on still lol x x x

 

[Trueleame]

Denise...it's so true about the diet people can be jealous not sure why because as a diet it sucks big time but gives excellent results quickly which is what I need to keep going. Have to say for TOTM the Atkins bars are a Godsend! it gives me my choccie fix without damaging my diet.

I think I'll have them to hand for Xmas day and boxing day just incase I wobble watching everyone munch x x x

 

[Louloubellehoney]

Hey Tru, sounds like you`ve got all bases covered and are doing well. Glad your not letting stuff get you down, your a real trooper hun, so well done. How come the Atkinds bars with choc don`t ruin ketosis? I don`t have any experoence with Atkins stuff tbh... Lou xxx

 

[Trueleame]

Lou the Atkins diet is based on putting your body into ketosis so it doesn't affect things. Not having them all the time but 1 a day max! As a lunch to grab whilst works manic x x x

 

[Louloubellehoney]

Oh I see, do you have to go online for them? X

They are a great get me outta a mess kinda bar for this diet.

OMG....why didn't I hear about them before I finished LT :cry:
How I suffered with those bloody flapjacks if I was in a non-shake situation! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

LOL!

Never mind, I survived ...and the CD meal bars are fab!

Dx

 

[Trueleame]

Denise they are lushy

I'm gobsmacked at how rude my chemist was this am when she sent me a text about LT. I will post it on here to see what others think when I'm on my computer later. I was shocked and a bit upset is and understatement. Needles to say I have phoned another chemist and am going there on Wednesday instead x x x

Yeah, why Tru?

The text first thing was:

I'm assuming you are off the diet now? That's fine...just can't emphasis enough the importance of doing the refeeding week accurately. if you need information get in touch. Wish you well.

To say I was a little miffed at that is an understatement. No ...how are you is everything ok you didn't come in yesterday? Nope straight in with the being unsupportive well I take it your off diet! No I'm blooming not ...I was busy and couldn't make it over. My OH was shocked at how rude the message was.

So I decided rather than having to deal with her negative attitude towards supposidly helping me achieve my goal ...I've decided to go to another chemist and see if they are more supportive!

I called them and have arranged to go over on Wednesday as I've got the day off and can get there ....also they are open until 7pm at night so I might be able to get over after work if I'm really busy.

Rant over with ...sorry ladies had to vent as this diet is hard enough to do without people who are suppose to be offering support being narky! x x x
