So its the end of day 3 and 3 100% days

Today ws the easyist so far until this evening... House mate made fajitas and they smelled so good! Actually felt proud for not caving in!!

Spoke to my cdc today and she was surprised how well I was doing and thinks I may be in ketosis already as I had cut down massively before going on the ss plan

Anyway ladies and gents that's it from.me today and remember - ever success deserves to be celebrated and every day you dont cheat is a day to be proud of

Hey just popping on to wish you luck

I started my Cambridge journey at 23 stone 1lb and I've been faffing about on and off.

I will turn 26 on the 26th of this month

Got down to 16.7 in sept but it all went belly up so gained almost 3 stone back!

I'm starting day 6 today and have lost 10lb so far

I also have a diary on here filled with ups and downs but I wanted you to know your not alone and you can do this just believe in yourself.

If you need to talk or want support I am happy to help you any way that I can

Hi hun, you can over do the water but so long as you listen to your body you should be safe, I am aware that a lady died a few years ago while on LL which called into question how much water someone should drink.
The term is water intoxication if you want to google it and it can lead to the brain swelling among other things.
Speak to your CDC about the recommended amounts for you to drink and make sure it's spread out through the day rather than guzzling water all in one go but well done on the diet so far, I admit I have the opposite issue and need to drink more

 

[GooseNotts]

Thanks so much for the support it really does mean alot to me

I have always drank qute alot of fluids anyway so I have increased tge input by too much and my cdc didnt have an issue when I told her how much I was drinking so should be ok (and tbh didnt drink as much yesterday as was at work)

Thanks hun

It's difficult to say a time frame for my loss because my Cambridge journey is abit all over the place!

Started June 2012 didn't really do it 100% lost 3.5 my December Christmas happened lost my half hearted mojo gained 1.5 back. March 2013 was 100% until end of June went on holiday to America for a month gained a bit went back on plan until sept 2013 between march and sept I'd lost 5.5 should have been more if I hadn't been gone a whole month then since sept I don't really know what's happened. Started my final year of Uni and a diploma in counselling so I've been stressed lol and found comfort in food unfortunately and then Christmas happened again! Ended up with an almost 3 stone gain.

I know I'm back on track but I wish I'd just have seen it through rather than giving into weakness but hey!! Looking forward and not backward eh?

We will get there hun this site is amazing and I've made some really great friends on here which I'm so thankful for!

How are you doing today?

Can I ask your name? Seems so impersonal talking to each other as screen names lol

Ah u did great!! Here's to tomorrow

 

[GooseNotts]

so don't feel quite so bad today (hoping yesterday was the wall) although I haven't had anything other than water so far as I find after a shake I feel hungry for a while

have come to the conclusion that I am gonna stick with this for 2 weeks then decide if its for me or not - the weight is coming off but I am not particularly comfortable doing it - may have to change to a slightly steady loss that is more maintainable long term
