Thursday 9th September
Not really feeling it this week if that makes sense! Think it's because I lost focus at the weekend and ate out a few times. Haven't done too badly since Monday, but have been struggling to stick with it and have had cravings for pizza which I haven't had since I started on WW 3 weeks ago.

Wednesday 22nd September
Oops missed Tuesday the day went so fast!! Have had a bit of a panic my totm is now 6 days late which is odd normally it's been regular since I stopped the pill 9 months ago (but not trying for baby). Anyway was a bit worried so took pregnancy test today and it's negative so not sure what's going on - does anyone think it could be coz of starting this diet 5 weeks ago? And I started taking St John's Wort too. I don't know! I did buy the top of the range digital test and definitely followed the instructions properly so I guess I have to believe it (and I want to believe it!).

Thanks for that, I'm sure when I was doing WW before I had some that were only 1.5. The ones I have now are Tesco ones so I'll have a look at some other brands. Thanks for reading
