Wales Daily Diary...

Well done Wales, it does take some quiet thought before deciding what to do doesn't it? I am so determined this time for all sorts of reasons and not least the cost; which I hope will spur me on to get on with it and not mess around. It 'seems' (as in my scales,) that in 10 days I have lost 12 lbs by doing an unintended mixture of SS (hardly any days,) SS+ (much more) and 810 ( a few.) By that I mean I start each day intending it to be SS or SS+ but sometimes am so hungry........
Good luck Sweetie. We are all here to encourage you and cheer you on!! xxx

Thanks everyone for your unwavering support, advice and words of enouragement.
Day 1 - so far ok.
Work was busy so not too much time to think about it really. The main issues was remembering to get black coffee not with milk! Had a tetra at 11.30 and have just had a choc shake, and will have another later this evening. But feeling ok.
Did a mini supermarket shop on the way home, and was strange getting back into the mind of set of - ooh don't need that and don't need the other, just food shopping for OH.
I am booked in for a haircut tomorrow, long overdue, and I bought myself some more hair dye so am going to glam up a little this weekend.
I have decided to take SS a week at a time. When I finished last year I said I never wanted to go through it again. And I am glad to note that I won't have to, not the full 6 stones. But am quite prepared to spend a few weeks now getting me to where I really want to be.
Was good to catch up with my CDC - she said I am the only client of hers to do CD properly to be fully committed and to never put on weight during the process. It was great to hear that from her and reminded me of the resolve I had last time. If I just have 50% of that resolve I think I will be fine!
Big up us all, and here's to a strong and steady weekend x

Restless night, mind was racing most of the night - unsure if it was the coffee I had yesterday or maybe there is some anxiety about starting SS. But I had a good day yesterday, and am feeling pretty good this morning. It is so strange how SS just switches me off food totally. This morning in the kitchen straight to the tap to fill up my water and then straight out - no hum or har that I would do if I were thinking about breakfast, my angel saying porridge my devil saying toast & jam. Fingers crossed it lasts.
All my really good friends are meeting up today for a girls lunch, which will be a loud and drunken affair. It is in London and I wasn't able to make it this time anyway and apart from being sad that I won't catch up with people I haven't seen for ages and missing what will be a really good giggle I am pleased that I will avoid the hangover tomorrow!
Hope everyone has a good weekend, and a great Saturday x

Arrrgh, just lost everything I have typed for the last 5 mins.
Potted version is:
Aft in town, bought dress, black & white, 7 from 30 quid, will fit lovely in a couple of weeks.
Pictures tonight, Book of Eli, not what I was expecting, enjoyed very much and thought provoking - for me.
Bought decaff coffee for my new coffee pot.
So hungry I could chew my arm off, so will be early night for me shortly.
Came home to watch the second half of the Leeds game which we recorded earlier on, but when in Asda getting coffee chap in front of us in the queue gave full update to the checkout guy - OH was not impressed at all. Therefore I think we should be able to watch it speeded up x2. But I will be off to bed soon.
No drunken texts from my drunken lunching pals and will turn phone off overnight as the could well start post midnight.
Day 3 tomorrow, whoopee.
Wishing you all well, much love x

Thanks Katy. Am hungry this morning so have just made my first shake. I am really enjoying them, I had forgotten how much I liked the chocolate shakes. Am having to restrain myself from chugging it down in one.
Scales this morning were 13.2 - like wowzers. Yep, day 3 - only today and 4 others until official weigh in where I hope to get more resolve.
Have very stinky breath, started with a headache lsat night but that has gone, plus started washing the kitchen walls yesterday, dishwashered all the ironmongery from the cooker and can't stop wiping the counter tops - hope I am getting the energy buzz nice and early. I could do with getting some ironing done!
Not much planned for the day. We might go to the pictures to see Sherlock Homes this morning, 11am show, but OH is still in bed so we might not get there.
Strength to get through the day with the right choices today - I know I am much better on SS where choice is not an option!
Here's to a great day x

Erm, second shake nearly finished already and not even half elevn. Biggest tummy rumbles in the world. Need to get out of the house this afternoon, break up the day. If it becomes a really long day I have a couple of extra shakes so will half one just to get through the day.
Just off to find my first lot of posts, get some strength from them. Have done it before so can do it again!!!

Going out is a good plan... I need to remind myself of that sometimes. A lot of times. I work at home so think it's skiving to go out, but a walk wakes me up & gives me energy & makes the dog extra happy too.
If all else fails, an extra shake is not the end of the world.

Well done Wales, sounds good to me! Energy buzz, wow, I could do with some of that. I have another drippy cold just after seeing the last one off, so very unimpressed and feeling sorry for myself. :copon:
Listening to Sunday morning radio which I like, Desert Island Discs just now....hoovering and ironing I think will guive me an excuse to stay inside in the warm. I'm having Lemsips which is probably a bad idea, but everything runs without them and I can't see where I'm going....Otherwise been good after yesterday's little slip up.

Newly positioned scales say 12.10 ?! so maybe I didn't blow it after all.
